Build talk:N/Mo Soul Reaping Prot

Variants
The page currently features six equal variantbars. In my opinion all these build variants are good. If that's considered too many similar build variants on one page, I suggest keeping aura of faith, life sheath and zealous benediction. --Krschkr (talk) 19:15, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me. Maybe throw in a divert Hexes option? Willarddog (talk) 14:36, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Are you sure that's needed when you can slot in convert hexes instead? --Krschkr (talk) 21:42, 14 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Eh the strength of Divert Hexes comes from the short recharge and the potentially powerful conditional heals (and bonus condition removal). For the majority of hex heavy areas your typical triple mesmer midline combined with 1-2 hex removal spells on your backline should be sufficient. However, this is a player build and not a hero build, and you would likely run this in some sort of pug scenario, where hex removal is... less common. In hex heavy areas, Divert Hexes in a pug group is very very strong. Plus, being a necro where your elite is not critical to the core build and you have the energy management to actually use it properly, it's pretty much the only viable primary class to run it on in most cases of the skill. Just great macro synergies.


 * As a side note, I really do appreciate the recent work that's been put into vetting these backline player builds across all professions, from rit, monk, dervish, necro, etc. It's hard enough getting a decent backliner on pug groups, as everyone wants to run their normal build (which is typically damage). This gives traditional damage classes (such as necro, dervish, etc) more options. Willarddog (talk) 03:26, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I added it, alongside some additional touch ups Willarddog (talk) 23:24, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Do any staple backline builds come to mind which are still missing as of now? --Krschkr (talk) 11:29, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Outside of frenzy mending and a (sadly will never happen) buffed motigon... only other alternative healer would be a player version of Me/Rt Healer Hero... I don't know if it's worth making it. I mean, sure, there are dervish healers, but dervishes actually bring something to the table. Willarddog (talk) 14:36, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

build name change suggestion
Suggestion: Change the build name to "N/Mo Soul Reaping Prot" so that there is some consistency with build naming, especially with regards to the hero version: "N/Mo Soul Reaping Prot Hero" Willarddog (talk) 15:22, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
