Thx for sharing!! Love relic of the chronomancer Combined with wells on necro and scourge we get an open world build capable of giving itself perma quick & alac in open world which is awesome!!
i use a different version of this for my open world build. i use spite instead of curses to get quickness from inflicting fear (due to weapon choices, perma quickness). as weapons i use staff for maximal tagging power if i run around in a meta train, or currently i use double sword, since the auto attack applies chill -> bleeding (additionally the spammability of those sword skills is amazing), tho i used pistol/torch before. last but not least i use "suffer", "your soul is mine", "you are all weaklinks" and "chilled to the bone" in combination with the reaper relic. that means i have a reliable aeo chill -> bleed every few seconds. my single targe ability is a little limited outside of reaper shroud, but i am great at clearing packs of mobs.
For open world, I’m a huge fan of using relic of nightmares over reaper when running Spite’s quickness on fear. Suffer and Chill to the Bone both ofc still apply chill, but Chill to the Bone now applies a second chill a few seconds after casting. So you get the CtB stun, then as it runs out your fear hits. Ofc, this gives even more quickness & fury as well since it’s a fear. And, if using death magic, the poison is ofc buffed by that line as well. Since you reapply chill in an aoe via cold nova, plus on fear, plus on enemies below 50%… the reality is that you still have massive chill production. You still have 3 from shouts (suffer x1, CtB x2). Another fun benefit to nightmares is that when using death magic, CtB can alone cap you on carapace from 0 as your opening button.

@@piedpiper1172 whats 'flex'? also what infusions do you use? I just tried it in open world it eats shit alive and I am never low hp...(hero point farm I mean)
hi thanks for the guide, i was finding a low reliant shroud condi build, also use Well skills because i like Well trait with dagger. Thank you so much!
It is fun, but not really good for dps :( I'll wait for the march patch and see whether they might become better then. For open world they're really fun :)
Mail hand sword really highlights how unbearably slow and immobile Necro Gs feels. Even if it was only a single leap of only 600 range, Necro GS 3 needs to also be a gap close to make the weapon bearable in open world.
@@MK-nl4xbThief is also non-playable on most bosses due to axe physics and will 100% be nerfed to the ground sooner than later. But please keep looking at the benchmark numbers without understanding them.
@MK-nl4xb condition deadeye has a high benchmark yes, but that is highly unrealistic to get to in any actual content because of how technical the rotation is. ANet stated that their goal for dps benchmarks is ~40k, they just fail to reach that goal with every patch that brings major changes to combat. Then, the subsequent patch brings outliers down to more reasonable levels. So in a vacuum where every benchmark outlier that currently exists counts, even unrealistic ones, this build might have "low" dps. But in terms of overall balance in the longer run, it doesn't.

Which do you recommend power or condi?? also I dont have Soto expansion what weapons should I use?
The dream is no longer a meme!!
I love the build unfortunately I’m using trapper runes because I’m low on gold, is that ok for this build as well as a substitute ?
It is pretty cool video.
REaper with pistols`?
hi can I play it with swords?
No way this is still viable. There’s been four updates, especially a huge balance patch.
@@TechNerdGamerDad But it is still viable
@ whattt ok im going to try it. Since I don’t have legendary light I know to always make sure thank you
Hiya, is this build still viable after the last balance patch? :)
@@JohnDoe-ed1mb yes, 100%
@@MaselMMO Perfect, thanks :)
Hi can you try doing some build with dual swords necro?
I'm doing power harbinger sw/sw and it fells fun.
It is fun, but not really good for dps :(
I'll wait for the march patch and see whether they might become better then.
For open world they're really fun :)
thx, will be waiting for your build after update^^@@MaselMMO

first part you got 35k hp , then second one is only 22k
sad low dps
I like the second section of your comment where you explain why the dps is low and how you get better dps with something else. Oh wait, it's not there
oh dont cry@@MaselMMO
@@MaselMMOit wouldnt have been bad dps a few months ago, but thief is sitting at 54k dps or smth like that rn, 38k is closer to support dps
