GW2. Best Open World Build. Celestial Scourge Open World. Necromancer PvE.
The Celestial Scourge Open World is very aggressive, but also sustains well in different scenarios due to Parasitic Contagion healing per condition damage dealt and ranged options, making it very efficient and scaling up well in many situations.
Dhuumfire inflicts burning on enemies in your Shade abilities. Cast your Manifest Sand Shade F1 on enemies from afar and then rotate through your F2-5 on a 1-second internal cooldown to keep applying burning. Avoid using the Signet of Undeath as you want the passive effect to generate Shroud, but if an ally needs reviving don’t hesitate to use it.
Blood Is Power deals the most damage to a single target, but it also bleeds you. This condition can be transferred back to your target by using the Dagger 4. Always try to use these skills together.
Otherwise, use your weapon skills off-cooldown. The more damage you deal the more you heal so rotating between weapon skills and using your shade abilities off-cooldown at a fast pace will be much more effective damage and survivability.
