Eltiana.9420 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 All I can find is people talking about Scourge and Power Reaper. With Scourges being nerfed to the ground, is Condi Reaper the go to PVE spec? Or do the Power buffs put Power Reaper above Condi Reaper? I just want to know what I should be doing with my Necro , besides the obvious choice of picking another profession lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephylon.4938 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Feelings are too hot atm to get a reasonable response. Additionally benchmarking still has to be done. You should get a proper answer for this question with in a few days to a week.Now if you'll excuse me, I have some more sarcasm to dish out.

I just feel like I'm the only Condi Reaper here with all the attention on Scourge and Power reaper -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amerikajinn.4635 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 As a fellow Condi Reaper main, I can give you a ballpark answer to go off for now until proper benchmarks get done.Condi Reaper has been for the most part unchanged the last few balance patches, and this one is no exception. As such, it's likely a damage value somewhere in the ballpark of 30k dps or so on the golem will be the result, based on the benchmark performed by Farbstoff.

Dadnir.5038 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Condi reaper use actively some reaper shroud skills that were buffed in power damage in the patch and condi scourge, which was dealing as much dps as condi reaper, have been nerfed. So yeah, now condi reaper is necromancer's top dps spec. This certainly won't please the power reaper crew's eyes and in the following days we will probably have more "nerf deathly chill" threads.

ZeftheWicked.3076 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Just a short reminder this is "raid" scenario talk from most. It's a different game when you need solid defenses. Here from what i've experienced it's a simple divide - condi reaper will lose a lot of dps if he wants defensive utilities/ traits, scourge won't lose that much.Reverse is true for power builds.

It plays almost the same like power reaper. Scepter is much more boring than axe but that's it.In WvW/PvP it's still worse than power as the 1-bleed-DC is too weak. I'd like to see GS hybrid reaper more viable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick.2987 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Do not forget dhuumfire icd also hits condireaper. I just realize it is a scourge only nerf so nvm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
