Curse

Ok what I need is a decent necromancer/whatever (preferably mesmer). Try not to include elite skills in the build (or if you do list a replacement skill) because I am an uber n00b. I would prefer to have the build based on PvE with other PC's (not farming or soloing)...I think thats about it...any builds listed here will be GREATLY appreciated!!!

And one more thing

I don't have factions or nightfall so please do not include any of the skills found in those games in your build.

minionmasters are quite funny to play in PVE.. and as you have quite many options concerning skills it should be easy to make a build just using nf and factions skills..

a curse necro with defile enchantments (*2), awaken the blood could also be funny.. depending on your team you could bring barbs and/or mark of pain.. enfeeble/enfeebling blood is also a good choice most of the times..

just go and check out http://gw.gamewikis.org to get a feeling which skills fit together..

When you get far enough... Suffering + Feast of Corruption {Elite} is very fun

Narayanese · Jan 08, 2007, 04:50 PM // 16:50

A simple MM build:
[skill]Blood of the Master[/skill][skill]Animate Bone Fiend[/skill][skill]Animate Bone Horror[/skill][skill]Taste of Death[/skill][skill]Rotting Flesh[/skill][skill]Death Nova[/skill][skill]Deathly Swarm[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]
Atrributes: maxed death magic, rest into soul reaping.

Only the two first skills are important, the rest are various somewhat useful skills, there to fill the skill slots. Remember to not use rotting flesh on an human enemy, as that causes disaese to spread to your own party.

Totally agree there, i use those skills and PvE and AB , but its probably the hardest elite to cap, simple because getting there is ick >_<

Anyways back on topic

The MM build posted by Narayanese is perfect, mainly because alof of these skills are avilable straight away (after the searing).

The only thing i would do is invest a few points into Healing Prayers to help control your sacraficing level (Blood of the Master). other than that, that would be an ideal build to get you far.

I found capping FoC to be made considerable easier if you start from SnakeDance and work up the way and take a human or hero Ele with Ward of Stability. This helps a lot against Azure Shadows, Stone Summit and Tundra Giants. Awaken the Blood with Arcane Echo to echo FoC can provide a very nice spike.

Why take rez signet in a Necro only build Narayanese?
Why not take a monk secondary then?

Also... @ Pwny Ride
The op preferred to go for a /Me secondary and yes it's possible to keep yourself alive even when saccing. Just invest some points in inspiration.
Two possible skills would be [skill]Ether Feast[/skill] and [skill]Power Drain[/skill]/[skill]Leech Signet[/skill]

This is what i use
[skill]Life Transfer[/skill][skill]Life Siphon[/skill][skill]Conjure Phantasm[/skill][skill]Phantom Pain[/skill][skill]Ethereal Burden[/skill][skill]Shadow Strike[/skill][skill]Vampiric Gaze[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]
Atrributes:
Blood Magic: 10+1+3
Illusion Magic: 12
Soul Reaping: 9+1

This skillset has done it for me on numerous occasions
