Curse

kinda a exercise in ridiculousness, and trying to make a partly flawed concept work better, and just cos pets are fun

please note, scavenger strike has been changed completely, and is different and better than whats in the skill icons
http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Scavenger_Strike

5e, 10sec recharge

Quote:

Full: Your animal companion attempts a Scavenger Strike that deals +10...22 damage. If the attack strikes a foe who is suffering from a condition, you gain 3...13 Energy.

Concise: Deals +10...22 damage. You gain 3...13 Energy if target foe has a condition.

assuming its triggered on recharge, at 9 beast mastery its equal to glyph of lesser energy for a seconadry, and GOLE is pretty common used on monks, mesmers etc. and a level 20 pet at rank 9~ deals about 10dps to the master of damage, plus you have bodyblocking, triggering barbs/mop. thanks to the change in scavenger strike its not as bad as it once was to run around with pet(s)

if your gonna use these, then one of your party needs to bring http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Revive_Animal

alot of this is theory crafted, like gorens bar which i tried out and realised wasnt that great, so ive changed it, i should also make a couple of other necro builds too

Quote:

Full: Resurrect all nearby allied animal companions. They come back to life with 10...77% health.

Concise: Resurrects all nearby allied pets (10...77% Health).

ive kept the semi standard patterns/build people use for heros

The only synergy I see here at all is the fact that the pets would trigger barbs (though not nearly as much as the minions you're pumping out would). The funny thing is, you suggest bringing Greater Conflagration, which would simply destroy that synergy (and Barbs' usefulness).

I love my dune lizard Fluffy, but I can't see myself, my guildies or even my heroes running this for more then an hour.

the reason everyone thinks pets suck is because everyone tries to incorperate them in builds like those. Pets have their own attribute for a reason. You need to actually dedicate a build to them to make them effective. Look at the build they have for pets on the ranger builds sticky. It shows how Beast Masters really can be strong if you use skills that actually synergize with your pets

there

, alternate mark of rodgort on foes as much as possible, which keeps them burning, which means searing flames triggers its damage more

All I see here is skill bars that will be blacked out half the time because the pets are dying in all directions. Then your hero throws Revive Animal and rinse and repeat. Or your monks are totally stressed from spamming heals on pets that don't have a shred of protection or any healing support from their owners. Just doesn't seem practical.

the one thing that cripple your build is revive animal on heros, it is a pain in the a, heros don't use it as much as you like them to. if your pets are dead all scattered at different places your build won't work. heros don't even revive animal if their own pet's corpse aren't close by, its not as good as you think when actually playing it, i know this cause I use revive animal when I was leveling all my heros jingle bear. believe me its makes you pull out your hair. until arena net tweak that skill, its as good as useless.
