I need advice - 2s

PVP Arenas

ghostwolf lavaburst = dead or one dot into swd from other side

If venthyr priest; go for the shaman with mind games/lasso while u stun/fear/hex the dps at the same time.
If necrolord, hit the dps, during the cc on the shaman kill dps with psyfiend/lasso.
Play Double Chain[maledict] Trinket.

I’d recommend the earth shield legendary & shadow mend one just to stay alive for longer than 1-2 minutes.

23

I’m playing necro for the extra survability, however it the patch I’m finally free to freely switch convenants, maybe I’ll eventually try out Venth

Those are exactly the legendaries we use :slight_smile:

24

You need the extra minion for damage if you’ll be playing necro.
Your survivability should improve with experience/positioning.
Your every go should be a cc on healer /root>stun totem>hex>silence/, with a cross cc on the melee /fear to prevent interrupts > lasso/horror/ with your covenant/psyfiend up, it cannot get more ‘basic’ than this.
I’d also suggest playing mind bender+attack speed conduit, since you’re not killing outside of setups most likely, and raw damage is rather poor.

25

I have that conduit actually, but it’s because of PVE and TBH I didn’t bother changing it back :stuck_out_tongue: However, do you suggest that instead of damnation, I should also switch to Mindbender? Since the shaman is so disruptive + the dispells, the MB talent with the conduit might be a better option for me?

26

use festering transfusion ; dissonant echoes + rabid shadows for offensive ones.
even if lower item level than the rest.
For 3s you’ll probably swap rabid shadows for haunting apparitions.

27

Hmm, I’m unsure about this. Is it actually worth it to waste a slot for just 2 extra seconds?

if you are necro i suggest playing the necro legendary otherwise its not really worth going necro

29

I play necro since the start of the expansion, mostly because it provides survability, which we dearly need as a double dps casters in 2v2

And then I play with Shadow Mend legendary because it provides another layer. It won me countless arenas, when death was almost certain. So I’m a bit uncertain about using the necro leggo

30

Palid Command damage is very high and the only reason necro SP is even played.

31

Yes, but not every SP plays with Ele, and 80% only 2v2 arenas. I’ve played necro since the beggining, and before everyone else switched to it.
Regardless, of course it’s something I’ll consider trying

32

idk reconsider it. fleshcraft got nerfed too so necro doesnt give too much surviveability.
i would go venthyr and heal legendary for big dmg in setups.

you lose so much dmg with necro and not having the necro legendary haha

Yea I know. The thing is, it’s SO HARD to stay alive in this meta so even nerfed, it’s still better than the other covenants where it comes to survive :frowning:
And I’m still hesitant about switching to venth. I’ll renown it up to try it eventually

34

The correct answer is Rshaman should be nerfed in pretty much all aspects - but most of all that damn Ele pet leggo.
