Discord 55 hp used to be a good solo boss farmer,
now necrosis > discord so it's better to use a hex like SS or SV and spam necrosis

I guess it'd be possible.
But kinda pointless - SS and SV kill things faster.

Discord does more damage actually. If you are 55ing Discord will do 115 damage and necrosis will do 90 at rank 10.

Necrosis takes 1/2 as long to cast.

yea, Discord is a 2 sec cast and necrosis is a 1 sec cast. They both recharge in 2 sec. I dont know, i guess I wanted to be able to spike something or someone with discord because it uses an easy req. someone who is enchanted or hex.

Does anyone have a build with Discord i could see?

Do I have one? Yes. Do I think it works well? No. I don't use this build very often, but maybe it will give you something to build off of. As is, it is mediocre at best. There are many better builds than this one to choose from.

Death Magic: 12+3+1
Curses: 10+1
Soul Reaping: 8+1
[skill]discord[/skill][wiki]necrosis[/wiki][skill]Rotting Flesh[/skill][skill]Parasitic Bond[/skill][skill]Enfeebling Blood[/skill][skill]Reckless Haste[/skill][skill]Signet of Lost Souls[/skill][skill]Flesh of my Flesh[/skill]

If you're fighting non-fleshy creatures, you'll need to swap rotting flesh out for something else - maybe [skill]well of ruin[/skill] or [wiki]Technobabble[/wiki] for an AoE daze (although it doesn't really last long enough to be useful for discord). Switching Flesh of my Flesh out for [skill]Epidemic[/skill] cold be useful - then you could use something like [skill]Weaken Armor[/skill] when you aren't fighting fleshies.

Otherwise, for non-attacking creatures, use rotting flesh + parasitic bond, then follow with alternating discord and necrosis. Make sure to use Signet of Lost Souls before the foe dies. Then, if the disease is still in effect on another target, hit that target with parasitic bond and repeat. When time allows, re-cast rotting flesh. When fighting attacking creatures, use enfeebling blood + reckless haste to give them all conditions and hexes, and as a defensive measure. You can use enfeebling blood on spellcasters as well, if they are non-fleshy or "human" creatures - the -1 to attributes will give you a slight benefit.

I've been using this build for quite a while (some Asuran skills added when I got GWEN), and it is based on getting a fast condition and hex on foes and spam Necrosis and Discord in targets with Pain Inverter for AoE casters and Insidious Parasite for melee foes.

1-Enfeeble
2-Parasitic Bond
3-Faintedheartness
4-Insidious Parasite
5-Pain Inverter
6-Discord
7-Necrosis
8-Mindbender

Atributes: 15 Death, 12 Curses, 9 Soul Reaping
With this build I can do a bit of damage, which can be improved by casting Mindbender before or at the start of the battle.

The major counters of this build are condition/hex removal foes, and of course no Rez.

I've been playing this build (and small variations of this since the middle of Nightfall and have stuck with it for ever.

Try to adapt the GvG discord build that was ran before, with just 3 discord + you with necrosis. You basically run through 80% of the game with it

necrosis does more damage, its soild damage, not cold damage, which is affected by armor correct?

Faintheartedness and Insidious Parasite are counter productive. I suggest swapping Faintheartedness for a rez.

I normally don't use them in the same targets. I try to use it to slow down warriors and dervishes or to counter a little of regen spells.
