Stamdk vs stamcro for pvp

Nyseto · January 2023

I just don’t see how stamcro is better than stamdk. It doesn’t have the dots, it doesn’t have the ultimates dk has, it doesn’t have any good reflecting ranged skills. What is the main point of a necro then? What makes it unique like stamsorc having speed and dk having the best dot pressure?

Stamdk is ahead by a fair amount

"Stam"dk is head and shoulders above stamnecro, they don't even play in the same category lmao.
A dk can put on 3 defensive sets and outdamage a necro wearing 3 offensive sets.

A clunky self synergy you need to invest 3 jewelry traits in just to make it worth slotting and a 10% dot damage passive so you can play like a bootleg dk with some sets, enjoy.

About 3 years ago, when everyone had less health and more damage, the synergy dealt a lot of damage. Now it deals less damage and enemies have more health. Synergy hits 1000 more damage than blastbones with all the harmonies.

The real question to ask yourself is why you'd play anything as purely stam or mag in PvP still? If you insist on building along those lines you're just nerfing yourself, a hybrid build is superior on every class.
