Positive it hits hard and its good condi dmg and its not garbage like Virtuoso so thats something.
Negative its very low sustain, I miss my shroud and I tend to use NO Elixirs
IT IS Pistol clearly we can see that, if that makes sense or not dosent matter Anet have done the Elite Specc already. One positive note however is Necro most likely then be in first Beta test with Mesmer and one other so atleast we dont have to wait long to try it.
On pic after enhanched brightness looks like hes Holding Pistol and Focus Combo, and Pistol in tight hand like Mesmers Virtuoso wich meens Necro Pistol Mainhand so 3 skills instead of offhand 2. Some are thinking Shadows Mechanic and maybe some Necro Stealth.
Like most PoF classes its broken, boring, and lack any skill requirement. Same goes for FB,Mirage,SB and Holo tbh. I think PoF Elites just did more harm then good for the game.
Since I Solo-Roam like 80% of my Gw2 time and I only play WvW the build I mainly use is a Power Reaper with Dura Runes and GS/A-F. I would say in 1v1 situation I loose to Thieves as most if not all Necs do (if the Thief has any clue) and Cancer Mirage cause no class has enough cleanse to deal with Anets biggest fail. Build is very muchthe same as Hollts use for his roaming and ranked PvP. vs other Necro buuilds like Core and Scourge the Power Reaper rarely looses. Curses Scourge is fun in small-scale roaming but lacks certain tools in Solo for me to consider it. so yea I play Power Quickness Reaper
Going with Sword either for Main- or offhand or both, would maybe also say Shield but Anet hasnt given us Necros a block or invun skill in 7y so think Shield is out.
