[Dánmander] Heal Alac Scourge - Dagger (Outdated)

[@Dropem7777]

Why do you use magi's prefix? Would givers or harriers work better?

[@Dánmander]

Because the build already gets to 100% boon duration with "Sand Sage" so we get some magi pieces for more healing power.

[@Enmessara]

This answered my question at the top thanks @@Dánmander

[@ShashankGupta05]

Powerful build, can easily carry whole team.

[@althehe8539]

Will full Plaguedoctor's work here or does it lack something like Boon duration etc?

[@Dánmander]

Anything below 100% boon duration will cost you might. Plaguedoctor lacks both boon duration and healing power.

[@Mkarn321]

how many sand shades should i have out at one time?

[@Dánmander]

If you want to play it in the most straightforward way, one.

[@huna7a]

Fml I must switch my items from magi to harrier now... :-/

[@gazettex8852]

Hi im new to the game and i wanna be a support , what are the gear and jts stats you used in this video?

[@Dánmander]

I'm using ascended gear with the prefixes (harrier/giver/magi) that the build page on SC displays snowcrows.com/builds/necromancer/scourge/heal-alacrity-scourge If you ever need a way to find which gear has which prefixes you can use wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Special:RunQuery/Equipment_query

[@The_Quaalude]

Have you tried plague doctor or celestial?

[@bolt6572]

is it ok to use exotics?

[@Dánmander]

Having exotics will result in a loss of boon duration which leads to a loss of might. You can swap the magi pieces to harrier which should give you back that lost boon duration.

[@bolt6572]

ty for the quick reply! @@Dánmander

[@bolt6572]

why torch?

[@Dánmander]

A LOT of your might comes from torch 5.

[@xTensu]

It's a full support build, doesn't it have damage?

[@Dánmander]

It's a healer build yes, you'll be responsible for boons, healing and mechanics.

[@kurisu1204]

No scepter usage?

[@Dánmander]

Scepter doesn't really provide anything, your options are dagger for infinite life force and self healing and axe for vulnerability.

[@kurisu1204]

@@Dánmander ok ty vm!

[@huna7a]

I truly hate that once a big update kicks in we should fully or partially change our gear. Now I must rework 70% of my heroes gear expecially the heal scourge and chrono dps...

[@VictorHugo-gx8pc]

if you use full magis isn't it better? I tested it here and I manage to keep 100% alac and because I am magis, I have more life and more barrier too. Thanks for the vídeo! ^^

[@Dánmander]

The boon duration is not for the alacrity, but for the might/fury/prot/regen/swiftness*. These offensive and defensive boons are very much expected to be given in a comp and since we're the healer we lose the least for giving them.

[@stevensistrunk5051]

love this build , a good healer who times barriers correctly doesn’t really need any burst healing for most fights

[@IDontKnowMyNames]

How you get swiftness?

[@Dánmander]

@@IDontKnowMyNames wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Trail_of_Anguish It can proc twice per target so it can provide perma swiftness, it's just a bit ass to use since you need to run all over your squad to make sure it hits them.

[@wojciechszatko]

Harrier's provides more damage and higher boon duration which is crucial for any boon build. You don't need additional life force with a dagger MH, so vitality is kinda pointless. Precision doesn't really do much without power and ferocity.
