addisonstone.2570

Main hand sword. Can do a mix of traditional vampire/eastern energy vampire flavor. Death Shroud transforms the player into a winged vampiric form. Heavy emphasis on mobility, which will be new for the necromancer. Have it be really unique and allow the vampire form to fly similar to a sky scale, but at a reduced capacity. This will dramatically shake up combat in a fun way. The primary attack for this kit can be a DMC style Air Raid, where the number 2 will see the necro swoop back in for a dive attack. As for the sword kit, have your number 2 be a traditional lunge type skill that sends you forward in a cloud of bats.

Yes, but a sword to him might be a greatsword to someone else. IIRC, he also had a unique animation where he held his sword reversed. Either way, it could just be a simple retcon. There is already a precedent for turning GW swords into GW2 greatswords, such as the fellblade.

I like Ronin as it would fit stylistically with the Tengu, who were Trail of Tears’d by the Canthans. I would make the legend Talon Silverwing, but I think I would base it around the greatsword instead.

That’s literally what I am running in SPVP most of the time.

Just needle people with shortbow. When they get close, torch 5 then Entangle. Add traps at the beginning and end if you are using. Build works well for me.
