Celestial Scourge Roaming Build

GW2. WvW Build. Celestial Scourge WvW Roaming Build. Necromancer WvW. Small Scale WvW Build.

Role: Medic 

The Celestial Scourge is a WvW roaming necromancer build with support for its allies. While scourge is generally easy to focus on in small-scale situations, which is why it tends to perform better on large-scale battles, this build allows you to survive with barrier generation, protection uptime, mobility, and immobilization removal. This lets you get value out of the hybrid synergy of celestial with the barrier scaling on healing power as well as the healing from dagger and sword.

Creating and using Sand Shades in chaotic and spread-out fights can be difficult, but try to place your shades on or stand next to your allies to provide them with barrier and cleansing when using your F1-5 abilities.

While supporting allies with barriers, you can help them by calling targets and removing boons/disabling them to make them easy targets. The dagger and torch set allows an easy burst combo with the Dagger 3 to immobilize and remove boons which allows you to place your elite skill Ghastly Breach on top of them to further remove boons, then follow up with the Torch 5 to disable them again and grant might to allies near the target to aid in their burst.

Shroud Skill Priority

• Keep up at least 1 Sand Shade with F1 (to reduce damage taken)
• F3 when near an ally or they stand inside your shade
• F2 for cleanse
• F5 when under pressure (remove immobilize and gain protection)

Main Combo

• Dagger 3 > Ghastly Breach > Torch 5 > Dagger 2

Use the Sword 3 and Sand Swell to reposition or to further corrupt the boons of your target before using the Sword 5 to fear them. Try to keep your life pool high using the Dagger 2 and Sword abilities so you can sacrifice life to use the Signet of Undeath to revive allies. Also, you can use barrier to prevent losing health when sacrificing using the Sword flip abilities and Signet of Undeath.
