LetoII.3782 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 22 minutes to show the proper facial orientation to ones keyboard? I find this a bit verbacious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I rarely play my Power Scourge in WvW as I prefer Herald, but I'd started using the Rune of Fireworks once they came out in the festival, and found them pretty useful. Granted that was before the Warclaw, so maybe they aren't as useful now, but I hate running at standard speed - feelsbad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EremiteAngel.9765 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I love your necro design. Like a goddess of war! Colour scheme reminds me of the other polish necro streamer. He has a charr necro similar to yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyShroud.2865 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 So 20min talking about builds? No commentary on the actual actions? Erm? Honestly, many don't care about the builds, many use what their commanders tell them to or what is listed in "meta". Only useful for minority who does theory craft or new commanders who don't understand the concept behind builds. Then again, plenty of commanders just simply copy from "meta" anyway or monkey see monkey do. Anyway, actual gameplay while explaining on how to perform with reference to specific builds is way better as gameplay tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a breakdown of why each trait is chosen over others. There's a section in there as well on how to shadebomb, where to place it, and why you use those skills in that order. The last few minutes are showing gameplay where the concepts are put to use. TBH anyone can roll their face over a keyboard and do well enough with scourge, so i didn't add in a commentary on the fights like i did with the other build videos. Shades, wells, corrupt, filler skills, and repeat doesn't make for great commentary These videos are for the people who want to understand how their class works and how to get the most out of everything available to them. Sorry if that doesn't apply to you =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlySynz.3471 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Game play for scourge is pretty standard in a large group/zerg setting: Run forward and spam shades/skills and pray you've got the bigger group, otherwise you'll get crushed. Anything other than that, you become ineffective and will get picked off by rangers, thieves, or revs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing your shade just behind the frontline while moving your body into the backlone though lets you hit and strip all the squishies for a nice fat spike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I've been playing WvW along with my first scourge for just a week now and I'm still trying to figure out the game play for both. So I very much appreciate your video. The shade bomb rotation advice alone will help me significantly. I had just been punching F1-5 in order but your rotation sounds much better. Your build advice also sounds very useful. At the moment my scourge has a full kit of celestial gear but you make a good case for going berserker. As a WvW scourge noob, I'm glad you posted this.

After you play scourge for a few months and get the muscle memory down it'll start feeling like you're rolling across the keyboard too lol. I'll watch a video of me playing a weaver vs playing a scourge and the whole bar is dark on scourge with things being put on cd as fast as they come off compared to just using fire 2/5 on ele and trying not to get hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt expect you to know how much it is, tho. Scourge hate is still abundant. Cuz it dictates the meta with fb. Boon spam and huge shades area coverage are even more abundant than the hate.

You def can't face roll the keyboard to play support scourge unless if you want to pull your team to their death lol I think the best way to practice without getting your teammates angry at you is to do it in PvE with your WvW build and learn the rotation so you can gain muscle memory. That's how I remembered the support scourge rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
