Harbingers

[WillPaharu.4837]

Just to be sure to add to the voices, this spec does need heavy nerfs in pvp ^_^ 

For one thing, instead of all buffs and all conditions, maybe just three of them. 8) 

Skills that do less. 

I do think the new Rev build and the new guard build also need a bit of nerfing on their damage. But it's mainily necross I see that are broken atm.

Thanks so much for your work!! fun specs!! They don't need to be so op in pvp to still be fun tho ^_^

By far the most overpowered spec in terms of damage and support condi output. Just by spamming shroud AA the damage is massive. 
 

After that they need to look at vindicator hazardously aoe killing it’s not rewarding. 
 

Catalyst,  Virtuoso are super non productive.

the rest is approximately balanced (untamed, specter, blade, …). Specs could be improved according to massive community Beta feedback but it’s AN they will not.

Harbinger is broken for 2 reasons

 

1, it's bugged in a way that it can one shot you with the space bar.

2. A couple of it's abilities are overtuned causing 1 shots.

 

Not that it matters because a balance patch isn't coming until summer and it will probably still be broken.

I'm not surprised Harmbinger is over-performing in sPvP.

Since it's a Necromancer specialization, it should have been expected.

stare agressively at them and they are on the ground.

i think the +100% dmg buffs when over blight stack threshold on shroud 3,4 are overload. should get reduced to 0 bonus dmg.

To be fair, with its initial design of Blight (going down to 50% max health it full Blight) it was a wee bit squishier than other Necromancers. That was enough to scare Necromancer aficionados, both at Arenanet and in the remains of the sPvP playerbase.
