its nothing special putrid explosion tainted flesh rotting flesh rigor mortis(if your team has warriors) rend enchantments, chilblains (if your not running natures renewal incase you runinto a healing ball) and then whatever else you want to add in to keep you busy but tainted flesh needs to be casted often.

this is mostly utility because thats what necros are good for not spike...

N/Me is a very good combo for a PvP necro. Specialize in Blood magic (life siphon, vampiric touch and awaken the blood)

and Dominition Magic (chaos storm, energy burn, empathy, backfire)

and of course.....a rez sig

P.S. this is a build for earlier PvP....for later PvP....well ur gonna have to figure that out

i have to dissagree, in my expirience, necros are not there to del damage in PVP, but to piss the hell out of everyone. look at the elites they have!

spiteful spirit: for # if foe uses skill or attacks foe and all surrounding foes take #damage. this is what you get on you in the beginning of the FoW. it sucks no matter what class you are.

lingering curse: target loses all enchantments and for # seconds only recieves half healing. piss the crap out of any character with Mo in their class.

soul leach: this is the necro backfire, for 10 seconds is target casts a spell you steal # health, i think ive gotten mine to about 81. mix this with mark of submersion and hit the monk with them and that monk wont be casting if they want to live.

i personally am a cursing necro, i have 16 curses, i use awaken the blood to boost it to 18 for 37 seconds, and i just got a staff upgrats that has +14% of +1 to curses while using skills. when i PvP, its not about killing the monk on my team, its about killing me, if you use the right skills, you can be public enemy number one in PvP.

at 18 cruses you should take about 71 upfront, and then an extra 24 for each enchantment i think. its a nice finisher because when your health is low the monks will enchant the crap out of you to save you.

I'd be amazed if anyone stands in Chaos Storm for long in pvp....

Last time I checked life sac necros could put out some OK damage. Dark Aura Dark Pact, Touch of Agony, ect. ect.I havent played one so idk.

I was reluctant to post this, but then again it's not really anything new and I've seen better.

It's on an N/Me.

12 Curses, 12 Domination Magic, 3 Soul Reaping.

1-Soul Barbs
2-Parasitic Bond
3-Wastrels Worry

Those are the only 3 spells that REALLY matter. With high level curses you can get your Soul Barbs up to around 30 damage ish, per hex. Parasitic + Wastrels are both 5 energy, instant cast and fast recharge. So you can spam these spells over and over to deal constantly high damage. You can combine with other hexes such a Backfire, Empathy, Insidious Parasite, Spiteful Spirit, etc - to rack up more damage. I personally love Wastrels due to the effective +30 Damage from Soul Barbs, +the damage when the hex ends, so it's an unlikely damage area.

Try it

Best thing about being a necro in PVP is that you usually don't factor into anyone's target rotation and get left the hell alone, until your curses start to annoy everyone, and then they're too weak to fight you properly, in theory.

Oddly enough I posted on here a while ago my N/W PvP build, its in a different area though. I've changed him up a little since then but here is the idea of it. He's basically blood and curse. Use the blood magic to steal life and use the nasty curses to punish anyone stupid enough to attack with a stack of curses on. I generally target warriors due to their high attack speed and unwillingness to stop attacking dispite loosing 50+ hp each time they attack. If you wish to kill monks though you will probably want to go with a different build than I posted. To kill monks you might want to do some energy degeneration hexes and go with HUGE life degeneration because most monks will be able to keep up with a moderate amount of life degeneration. Also many monks use enchantments so pick one of the skills to remove enchantments. Monks hate it when you strip off healing breeze the instant they cast it.
