Thank you very much for watching 🙂 This video is much longer than my previous build guides, but that is because we go into so many more details. So please let me know what do you think about that style. Do you want me to continue the same way for the future build guides? Or shall I go back to making them short and simple, even if it means we leave out a lot of details? If you have any requests or suggestions for the future guides, please let me know in the comments below
personally I appreciate the detail. Noob here and trying to decide the profession I want to dedicate hundreds of hours into. Guides such as this, provide a good idea what is involved in a build so choosing what to do is easier to accomplish. Thank you sooo much.
Thank you. I had tried running a scourge build before but didn't really understand it very well. Your in-depth explanation helped me a lot and I think I'll try a scourge again.
This is so good way to make a video. Please all the details about everything in your future videos. Longer videos killed no one according to the youtube statistics.
Thank you man, I started playing GW2 a few weeks ago, playing necro only, and always loved the idea behind scourge. Your build varies from the one‘s I have tried out so far but seems to be a lot of fun. Keep going, man, one can really see how passionate you are about the game and TH-cam in general!
I'm new to GW2 and I started with Necro. This is just the guide I needed to see. Thanks so much for awesome explanation of build setup and how it operates.
Thanks for the in-depth look, very worthwhile watch for any player that hasn't played a Scourge build. I especially like the utility options commentary; beyond that they exist.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I haven't played a Scourge, so am going to assemble some gear on the ol' necro, and give it a try. Somehow, with a bank full of junk, including sigils, I have neither of those!
My first video with you. I've had a Scourge for long enough that it embarrasses me to admit how much I learned from this video. lol I really appreciated that your video took a look at the Scourge as much as a class as it looks at it as a build by allowing the room to match your budget, your preferences and your options to match the class to the situation. I'll be watching more and I have subscribed. I didn't think it was too long. Actually, it was much shorter than people trying to make similar videos while still carrying more information than in those longer videos.
Wow Thank you very very much for all those kind words. I am really happy to know you learned anything from watching this guide. And of course thank you very much for subscribing 🙂 I hope my content remains useful to you in the future
Sourge has been hard for me to wrap my head around. This video help sooo much. For example every other guide states blood is power is a must have. but i keep accidentally killing myself on boss while trying to learn the class. Thx for taking the time to explain how everything works.
I am very glad to know the guide was helpful to you 🙂 Scourge is a great class and it's a lot of fun once you understand it I also have another build guide now for it. So choose whichever build you prefer th-cam.com/video/n_CVq6UObQs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much 🙂 Really glad you found it helpful and I hope it will make it easier for you to handle scourge. Congratz for unlocking it. It is a lot of fun, and have been my main for years
Fantastic guide, as a returning player, I just got my necro maxed out in scourge from hero points in Crystal Desert and PoF along with getting the first four mounts, whew! Transitioning from Reaper to Scourge was a bit of mental leap but your detailed explanation really helped and I’m having a blast melting down the mobs. Now to find your tutorial on Mirage Mesmer. Both these specs are so much fun!
I’m going to watch this a few times! Thank you - I have 3 more video ideas for you. 1 - a video that goes into a simple explanation of stats and what they do. Like how concentration work and what it effect, power / vitality/ and so on. 2 what your step by step brake down of how to get to know a class. Like i have one of each class and right now I’m proficient on 2 comfterbal on 3 more and derpy on the rest. Like start with reading all skills, then move to traits, after that how your gear effect the game play, then move on to snow crows or meta battle and read how the damage rotation work. Just to get an idea of hw to combin skills. 3 - ok so i have been back playing the game after like a 5 year brake. IMO the winter berries farm is the best farm in the game PERIOD. I farm with my 9 chars and can get 2 ascended ring off one farm, its truly awesome. So i can put 4 ascended item in slot - stat selectable. From just picking berries. To put two ring in you have to attune one. BOOM two rings. Then you when your done with ascended stuff, you can get obsidian shards. 250 barries is like 7000 unbound that’s 70 obsidonon shards!!!! Then even after that you can get T6 mats from that pack that guy sells - MIND BLOWING
I like all 3 ideas and just added them to the list of topics I can do guides on. The only thing is I am not sure when I will do that, I have a couple more videos in mind to do first. I hope you don't mind 🙂 But as usual, your suggestions and ideas are great, and I appreciate it very much. Thank you !
Great video. Thanks for all the explanations. This is not a long video because we learn a lot when beginners. You do intelligent video much better than folks showing destroying anything without explanation. Thumb up.
I am really glad you think it will help him. And thank you very much for the kind words 🙂 I make sure to take breaks after each video, and with the support of amazing people like yourself, it is working very well and I am not getting burnt out. Thank you very much for caring. Seriously 😃
Thanks Johny! I've only ever run Reaper, but you've convinced me to try Scourge. I tried it out on a few farming runs and wow, it works well. I like the longer form video with the explanation. I don't like to just copy and paste builds, I want to know how and why they work, and I can make informed changes based on my play style. So thanks for the detailed explanation.
Excellent video, everything clearly explained at an understandable pace. Consider adding a build link, so that we don’t need to continually searching the video.
Thank you 🙂 I left the links out on purpose because I was worried new players watching this may stick to one version of the build. There are multiple build and gear options and it all depends on your own style and needs.
Congrats on the 1k subs! As I have said before, I'm sure the channel will only keep on growing if you keep up the great content! My feedback on the video length: I'd keep the weapon skills and trait explainations. I really like how you also explain the synergies between skills and traits. The armor, weapons and trinkets explaination is also very good. It's straight forward and simple. Something most other people don't do is talk about alternatives. You talk about them for gear stats, runes and sigils, both in terms of player preference and budget. IMO that's a must keep. You also talk about other build options so people can adapt to the situation or content they are in. Also a very good thing. What I'd change: Since you have various guides, my suggestion would be to make a set of videos explaining the classes, their specializations and what they have different from each other (that would cut some of the explaination from the build video, like when you explain the shades and stuff). That way you can link said video at the beggining of the build video so people can go check it out if they want/need to learn the class or specialization. Another video idea is a Boons and Conditions one where you can explain them all (including stuff like Barrier and Superspeed - which aren't classified as boons but are still buffs), and refer people to it so you don't have to explain them during the video. Maybe move the Food and Utility buffs before the build variations as they are part of the "main" build that you show. Also a good job on showing budget options for these. Sorry for the lengthy comment but i tried to give both pros and cons to be more constructive.
That is EXACTLY the kind of feedback I need. Thank you so very much for that 😍 And of course all the ideas in here are actually great, and I can see them being extremely useful indeed, both for the players / viewers, and for me to save some time And thank you for the kind words. I am very grateful for the support 🙂
Really appreciate you taking the time to explain the basics for people looking to try this out and don't know anything about it yet. Could I please ask, you mentioned that sand shades do not stack with the effect around your character, but do they stack on each other? For example, if I spawn three sand shades in the same location and press my F1 skill, will my F1 skill apply triple the damage/conditions? Another thing I noticed is that the sand shades are not very large in radius, and are stationary, so I am wondering how much of a problem it is that mobs will simply move out of them. Would you normally just keep placing new sand shades under the enemies as they move? Or would you try to move your character next to the mobs so you can trigger the effect with your character instead of the shade? Or would it not matter much if the mobs moved out of the shade since they are already inflicted with the condition damage? Sorry for the beginner questions, they might seem obvious to experienced scourge players.
Thank you very much! I am really glad you found it useful 🙂 No need to be sorry at all. You can ask whatever questions you want, and I'll be happy to answer 😉 1- You can get the effect of shades and shroud skills only once. That can happen through the player, which counts as a shade, or any of the shades. And that effect can be applied only once. So if you have 3 shades + yourself right beside any enemy and use any of your shroud skills, you get the effect only once. 2- The shades are indeed small and being stationary can be a problem. So ideally you want to keep placing them where the enemies are. You also benefit from more stuff when you do that anyways. But at the same time, I always prefer melee style, and so 99% of the time I am already close to the enemies to trigger the effect around me. And since the effect can be applied once anways from you or the shade, it's not a big deal if the enemies are away from the shade.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Thanks very much for your fast and detailed response :) That is interesting, I was wondering why I was seeing people put sand shades down on the enemy when they were already close enough to trigger the effect from their character. I have also watched players put multiple sand shades around their single target from a ranged distance. I was wondering what the point of this was if they don't stack. Now I realise it would be because just placing a sand shade is a skill that does damage and inflicts conditions, they aren't using it to get their shade abilities to come out of the sand shade as well. They are basically using F1-F5 as the same thing, a regular skill that does damage. Might sound obvious but it just hit me haha.
Amazing guide! Is there a website you would recommend for up to date builds for different content? I'd just like to know what to change on my scourge in PvE vs WvW for best results
Thank you! Glad you liked it 🙂 When it comes to WvW, I do not recommend any website because they all assume optimal conditions for party, squad, and player. Something that rarely happens. I would suggest that you tweak your build based on what you are more comfortable with in general. Since this build is a condition build, I tweaked it a little to have some skills and traits that may be useful for WvW and can work well with a condition build. I left some options empty. You can fill them with what you need. gw2skills.net/editor/?PSAU2A2DDhZiF9XOA-e Please take this only as a base to work with. I highly recommend that you adjust everything to whatever you know and can work with. Feel free to completely change everything even
Great guide! I like the length and detail because it lets us really understand your thought process and get a better grasp of the class mechanics, so we can use this information even if we are working on a different build or configuration. Your videos are very specific and detailed and I like that about them. Keep it up!
The giveaway will be in about 2 weeks. So nothing you can do now. But in one of the videos I will make in 2 weeks, I will start the giveaway contest. All you have to do is to leave a comment with your in game username. For example : name.123

Torment condition damage has been changed from moving targets to stationary targets. This seems like a huge nurf for scourge on top on their notorious small damage. Is it steal reliable to play open world scourge like before that change? Why did they nurf it?
Yes this build is still VERY reliable in open world content. Scourge is my main in open world and that did not change after the patch. And I think we need to clarify some points. 1- The torment change is a nerf in WvW & PvP, but it's a buff for PvE, since most of the time the enemies don't move as much. 2- Scourge DOES NOT do small damage. In fact, it's easily my one of the top damage dealing classes for open world and it offers a lot of sustain. 3- Scourge is not one of the highest damage dealing classes in group content, however this depends on many many factors. 75% of the time if I use a DPS Scourge build in group content, I am always one of the top DPS
It always makes me happy to know my guides are helpful to anyone 🙂 And I do have a whole playlist of guides on how to make some gold, all of them should be very easy to do for new players : th-cam.com/play/PLdy9lW1_DfZ4aEkn0Lz_jKZZH6BFRpVGl.html
Hello Johny! Thank you so much for the great video! After all patches and Rune of Tormenting being nerfed, what changes would you make to the build(if any)? What is your choice of Runes now-days? Thank you!!!!!!
Hey Malinky! Glad you liked the build 🙂 I would change the weapons to Trailblazer to add a bit more extra sustain. And if we want to change Tormenting, we'll need to change a few more things in the build overall. Here is a link with all the changes: gw2skills.net/editor/?PSwAs+ZlNwwYasHGJWaX9PTA-zRRYkJNMTlIAPI5igupQoCwx0IjnNA-e Did that answer your question?
this great, i already know that my Reaper is going to be my main, but in WoW i was a healer which is something i missed in my time playing as a god of death, then i learned that the scourge can provide some of the best heals in a different kind of way... Not letting taste sweet relief that is death 😈, so i can't wait to learn this class as well :)
Great video! Some really useful things I didn't know yet! :) I 'switched' about a month ago from my power reaper to condi scourge just to try something different and scourge is insanely fun. My build is a slightly different version to the MetaBuild open world condi scourge. Full trailblazer (1 exotic, rest ascended by now) with rune of the undead and the death magic skills. With death magic you apply carapace to yourself everytime you apply poison to an enemy, so your toughness increases with every stack of poison and rune of the undead increases your condi damage by 7% of your toughness... increase your sustain and damage at the same time! :D Almost unkillable with 25.5k life and all the barriers you are spaming by just using your skills and an AoE monster as well with epidemic, ghastly breach and desert shroud! :D
Thank you! Glad you liked the video 🙂 What you said is great for sustain indeed and I am sure with Death Magic, you'll be very very tanky. For me personally, I did not find it was needed at all. I am able to solo any content in GW2, including bounties, dungeons, fractals, etc..
Yes, you're right! It's not really needed and I'm already thinking about changing trinkets to viper stats. They are much easier to get than weapons or armor. :D
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I miss the old times when u were commanding, when i came across your video it was such a surprise! But i must say they are great and i hope you continue to do well. I will be supporting!! :)
Thank you for this great guide, very in depth and to the point! I got a question thats been troubling me though about gearing: Would going full trailblazer be overkill in terms of tank stats? Im new to the game still and have some trouble dodging stuff, but I was wondering if full trailblazer is a waste of stats compared to viper even for a newer player. Im mostly interested in managing to solo harder open world content, like some HoT hero points.
Not at all 🙂 If you go full Trailblazer you will have amazing sustain and still very good damage. What I personally would recommend is start with Trailblazer, and do whatever content you want to do. And in few days, try to do the same thing again but maybe switch out one of the trinkets to Viper if you already have that, or another cheap alternative from the TP like Rampager or something. If you felt like your sustain was still good, then stick with the viper. Keep repeating that until you feel like you have a good balance you are happy with
Glad you found it helpful 🙂 And yes you can run a power Socurge if you want to, but I am not sure when I'll possible be able to make a guild on it. I have a couple more videos planned ahead, and Wintersday is around the corner
Very nice video but i do have a question i found that scourge builds are very open in how you build them. I'm trying to go with Trailblazer minion build with undead runes and viper weapon and trinkets? Do you think it is going to work, or do you have other suggestions? Should I go for a different set of runes, maybe? I know i will not be able to flip insignia for viper don't have mats and money for it, so that Trailblazer will stay, but I'm currently farming winterberry for trinkets, so i have an open choice there. Any thoughts?
I am very very sorry for the late reply. Still really busy right now. I think that will work for sure. You'll have tons of sustain and a decent amount of damage.
I am very glad to hear that! And I plan to do that for sure. Lately I have been really busy and not able to make any TH-cam guides, but I hope I can get back to them in a couple of weeks, and will do more build guides then 😉
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny so I was running the lab the last days, and sometimes my group struggled to survive, so I did change stuff so my shroud heals, but was still using the berserker gear (very suboptimal I know now) but it often it was enough Also I realy enjoy the staff (I'm very noob, started like a month ago)
Welcome to GW2 !! I hope you have been enjoying it so far 🙂 What you did is exactly the right thing. At the end of my video, I explained some changes you can make to the build, that will help in exactly the situations you're talking about, and one of them is the heal shroud thing you did, so good job 🙂 But there is a little bit more you can do without changing gear or anything, so just check that part out in my video. Staff is great for tagging and farming mobs and events like that.
For me personally, I don't use them too often in open world builds. But they are not a bad option and you can use them instead of signets without affecting the build too much. You may just have a bit of a problem with life force without signet of undeath
Thanks for making this video. I was a base necro for a while enjoying the staff, but I recently tried this condi scourge. I find myself way more squishy for some reason, and unable to stay alive with the most basic mobs. I'm curious if there is a common error when playing this build, and how to increase survivability? Thanks again!
Are you playing this exact build? Same traits, same skills, same gear?. If not, can you maybe give me a link or something for your current build? I am only asking because then I can tell you what to change.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I am using almost this exact build, I still need about 80HP to finalize the scourge line. I am dire exotics gear/weapons with scavenging runes, rings accessories a little behind. I know I still need better gear, is that the key to Condi builds? Link to build: imgur.com/a/kuBC0hX
The gear is fine, I don't think you should have that much problems with it. It looks like your problem is mainly getting used to Scourge as Specialization. Try to use your shroud skills more often, they're all very useful for sustain and damage. I would also suggest using Undead runes, and switching some traits and skills around to give you more sutain. gw2skills.net/editor/?PSAUWATjhxmYjYp9U9MB-e This will reduce your damage and increase your sustain by a lot, which should enable you to learn your class and take your time. After your gain more experience with it, you can switch things around again to more DPS
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Interesting death magic instead of Reaping or the blood magic mod at the end of the vid. I'll give this a shot. Would you say the next step would be to switch Death magic into Blood magic, and then eventually into the build you suggest in the main portion of the vid? *edit for reaping instead of curses
The next step is to put Soul Reaping instead of Death Magic or Curses, you'll have to test that yourself and see the effect on sustain. But I'd suggest playing with Death magic for like a week at least to get a feel for the build and know how it works.
Very good video! I've recently acquired some of the gear baecause I wanted to try out Scourge. I may end up trying yours since maintaining shades and shroud skills and scepter/torch skills is taking a lot of effort... I think using signets might be the way to reduce the typewriter effect... :) I really hope I'm gonna master it. I've tried some power reaper "unkillable OP roxxor" builds but it's just not the case... soloing champions or bounties or even Hero Points can be challenging... When I saw what Scourge could do I decided to try and switch... I hope I can make it! I really want to make my necromancer work since I played one in GW1... It would be a shame if I can't find ny use for it... Or at least have some fun playing it.
This is my main build for PvE. I can solo anything with it, since it is really versatile. If I needed some sustain, I can use a minion, or if the fight was too hard, I can also use the death magic trait line with more minions. But 99% I don't even use any minions and I solo anything. If you had any problems with the build and was still not able to solo stuff, feel free to contact me on discord, and I will help you out 😉
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I'll try and let you know... So far I can't defeat the champion golem dummy in the fractals lobby... but maybe with your build it'll change!
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I've tried your build this afternoon and managed to defeat the champion golem dummy on the first try. It was really smooth to use, I guess the life force regen and such were a great help... And you don't really need a second weapon set. I'll try in the open world and see how it fares, but so far i really like this scourge build!
Honestly in terms of Armor I personally prefer Trailblazer (Rabid for Budget) with Viper Weapons and Dire/Viper Trinkets, the extra survivability makes it prob one of the most safe options for open world. Thats (As always) just personal preference though, since you already deal a lot of damage with the conditions and unlike say Condi Soulbeast you dont use Power that well imo (At least when compared to Reaper or the affor mentioned Soulbeast). It is weaker for Zergs though so thats something to keep in mind. For Zerging Viper probably still is the best Armor for Condi builds.
Hi! I just finished maxing out my Scourge skills today. Is this build still relatively viable for a newbie Scourge/GW2 player? Looking for something that's solid in Open World/Questing stuff.
I intend to do guides for all classes and specs, so a guide for the weaver will happen for sure 🙂 However, I apologize in advance, but it will most likely be one of the last build guides I'll do.
hey bro , im now rolling a condi damage on reaper necro with mixed of tralblazer and dire gear and weapons , i can survive any fight easly but not sure about damage , i already have scourge spec but didnt use it , do you think i should go scourge for more damage or stay as condi reaper ?
I think you should go scourge yes 🙂 Condi Reaper will do more bursty damage when in reaper shroud. But Scourge will offer high damage the whole time with your shroud skills, shades, and torch. On top of that, it will offer much more sustain
I personally use Viper Weapons & Trinkets with Trailblazer Armor, and it's working fine and I can handle almost all content. And when it gets rough, I put extra trailblazer. So I would say Viper is fine, but keep a couple of trailblazer trinkets with you just in case
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny thanks for the reply man. I was just browsing the marked and cant find all the Viper gear that I need I guess people just ran out 🤣
For cheaper options, I would suggest : "Superior Rune of the Undead" Or "Superior Rune of Balthazar" You'll also need this food with either of them : "Meaty Asparagus Skewer"
If you can tell me what exactly is the problem with your current reaper build, I can tell you if this will be a better option or not. But this build should be fine in high level fractals, if you'll do them with a casual group, but not a hardcore or speed run group.
In that case, this build should give you more sustain than the reaper build. I would recommend starting with Full trailblazer until you learn how to use the build properly. After that slowly start changing your trinkets one by one to viper until you have a good balance between sustain and damage
Really glad to hear that 🙂 And I already have a Soulbeast build guide. It doesn't go in depth like the scourge one did, but you can check it out if you want : th-cam.com/video/TCK25ExuwOs/w-d-xo.html I plan to make an in depth video guide for all classes and elite specs in the future as well

Just to get an idea of hw to combin skills. 3 - ok so i have been back playing the game after like a 5 year brake. IMO the winter berries farm is the best farm in the game PERIOD. I farm with my 9 chars and can get 2 ascended ring off one farm, its truly awesome. So i can put 4 ascended item in slot - stat selectable. From just picking berries. To put two ring in you have to attune one. BOOM two rings. Then you when your done with ascended stuff, you can get obsidian shards. 250 barries is like 7000 unbound that’s 70 obsidonon shards!!!! Then even after that you can get T6 mats from that pack that guy sells - MIND BLOWING
I like all 3 ideas and just added them to the list of topics I can do guides on. The only thing is I am not sure when I will do that, I have a couple more videos in mind to do first. I hope you don't mind 🙂
But as usual, your suggestions and ideas are great, and I appreciate it very much. Thank you !
I'd like videos on 1 and 2 too!
Great video. Thanks for all the explanations. This is not a long video because we learn a lot when beginners. You do intelligent video much better than folks showing destroying anything without explanation. Thumb up.
Thank you very much for the kind words 😍 I am really glad you found the guide helpful!
Best guide I've seen. Gives me the tools I need to make my own decisions
Thank you so much! I am REALLY happy to hear that and hope you enjoy your Scourge build 🙂
this vid is exactly what i was looking for. very detailed, thank you
Glad it was helpful!
These are helpful for me as a newer player to understand mechanics I like the longer videos
That is really great to hear 🙂 I always try my best to make it very clear and helpful for new players
I love the content, this vid will be perfect for my brother who is also a new player. Keep up the fantastic work but dont burn yourself out.
I am really glad you think it will help him. And thank you very much for the kind words 🙂
I make sure to take breaks after each video, and with the support of amazing people like yourself, it is working very well and I am not getting burnt out. Thank you very much for caring. Seriously 😃
I enjoyed this format of video!
Thank you! I am glad you liked it 🙂
Thanks Johny! I've only ever run Reaper, but you've convinced me to try Scourge. I tried it out on a few farming runs and wow, it works well. I like the longer form video with the explanation. I don't like to just copy and paste builds, I want to know how and why they work, and I can make informed changes based on my play style. So thanks for the detailed explanation.
That is very good heart 🙂Glad you enjoyed it.
And that's exactly why I explained in details, I don't want you to just copy and paste.
I forgot to say gratz for 1k subs. Gratz! You deserve a lot more subs.
Thank you very much 😃I really appreciate the support of great people like you
top quality explanation!
Thank you very much!
Excellent video, everything clearly explained at an understandable pace. Consider adding a build link, so that we don’t need to continually searching the video.
Thank you 🙂 I left the links out on purpose because I was worried new players watching this may stick to one version of the build. There are multiple build and gear options and it all depends on your own style and needs.
Congrats on the 1k subs! As I have said before, I'm sure the channel will only keep on growing if you keep up the great content!
My feedback on the video length:
I'd keep the weapon skills and trait explainations. I really like how you also explain the synergies between skills and traits.
The armor, weapons and trinkets explaination is also very good. It's straight forward and simple.
Something most other people don't do is talk about alternatives. You talk about them for gear stats, runes and sigils, both in terms of player preference and budget. IMO that's a must keep.
You also talk about other build options so people can adapt to the situation or content they are in. Also a very good thing.
What I'd change:
Since you have various guides, my suggestion would be to make a set of videos explaining the classes, their specializations and what they have different from each other (that would cut some of the explaination from the build video, like when you explain the shades and stuff). That way you can link said video at the beggining of the build video so people can go check it out if they want/need to learn the class or specialization.
Another video idea is a Boons and Conditions one where you can explain them all (including stuff like Barrier and Superspeed - which aren't classified as boons but are still buffs), and refer people to it so you don't have to explain them during the video.
Maybe move the Food and Utility buffs before the build variations as they are part of the "main" build that you show. Also a good job on showing budget options for these.
Sorry for the lengthy comment but i tried to give both pros and cons to be more constructive.
That is EXACTLY the kind of feedback I need. Thank you so very much for that 😍 And of course all the ideas in here are actually great, and I can see them being extremely useful indeed, both for the players / viewers, and for me to save some time
And thank you for the kind words. I am very grateful for the support 🙂
This was a godsend. I was so lost when I first unlocked this class. Thanks a million.
I am very glad it helped!
Thank you Johny. I like the long tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Ty for the in-depth detail…I’m gonna switch my reaper into scourge and take it for a whirl
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful. I hope you enjoy your scourge when you try it 👍
Great guide, I liked the longer format.
Glad you liked it!

Your channel is the only channel i want " ring the be icon on" i verymuch apreciate this in dept guide thank you
Thank you very much for the trust! That is an honour 🙂
Thank you so much for the video, after 2 years break from guild wars 2 your videos really help!
Welcome back to GW2. Really glad it helped. I hope you enjoy the build 🙂
Really appreciate you taking the time to explain the basics for people looking to try this out and don't know anything about it yet.
Could I please ask, you mentioned that sand shades do not stack with the effect around your character, but do they stack on each other? For example, if I spawn three sand shades in the same location and press my F1 skill, will my F1 skill apply triple the damage/conditions?
Another thing I noticed is that the sand shades are not very large in radius, and are stationary, so I am wondering how much of a problem it is that mobs will simply move out of them. Would you normally just keep placing new sand shades under the enemies as they move? Or would you try to move your character next to the mobs so you can trigger the effect with your character instead of the shade? Or would it not matter much if the mobs moved out of the shade since they are already inflicted with the condition damage?
Sorry for the beginner questions, they might seem obvious to experienced scourge players.
Thank you very much! I am really glad you found it useful 🙂
No need to be sorry at all. You can ask whatever questions you want, and I'll be happy to answer 😉
1- You can get the effect of shades and shroud skills only once. That can happen through the player, which counts as a shade, or any of the shades. And that effect can be applied only once. So if you have 3 shades + yourself right beside any enemy and use any of your shroud skills, you get the effect only once.
2- The shades are indeed small and being stationary can be a problem. So ideally you want to keep placing them where the enemies are. You also benefit from more stuff when you do that anyways. But at the same time, I always prefer melee style, and so 99% of the time I am already close to the enemies to trigger the effect around me. And since the effect can be applied once anways from you or the shade, it's not a big deal if the enemies are away from the shade.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Thanks very much for your fast and detailed response :)
That is interesting, I was wondering why I was seeing people put sand shades down on the enemy when they were already close enough to trigger the effect from their character. I have also watched players put multiple sand shades around their single target from a ranged distance. I was wondering what the point of this was if they don't stack.
Now I realise it would be because just placing a sand shade is a skill that does damage and inflicts conditions, they aren't using it to get their shade abilities to come out of the sand shade as well. They are basically using F1-F5 as the same thing, a regular skill that does damage. Might sound obvious but it just hit me haha.
My pleasure! Glad you have a better understanding about this now 🙂
Amazing guide! Is there a website you would recommend for up to date builds for different content? I'd just like to know what to change on my scourge in PvE vs WvW for best results
Thank you! Glad you liked it 🙂
When it comes to WvW, I do not recommend any website because they all assume optimal conditions for party, squad, and player. Something that rarely happens. I would suggest that you tweak your build based on what you are more comfortable with in general.
Since this build is a condition build, I tweaked it a little to have some skills and traits that may be useful for WvW and can work well with a condition build. I left some options empty. You can fill them with what you need. gw2skills.net/editor/?PSAU2A2DDhZiF9XOA-e
Please take this only as a base to work with. I highly recommend that you adjust everything to whatever you know and can work with. Feel free to completely change everything even
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny thank you!!
Exactly what i was searching for! Thx a lot :)
Glad I could help!
Great Guide, Watched it over multiple days, I play necro, so found this guide really useful. Thank you
Thank you 🙂 Glad you found it useful
Great guide! I like the length and detail because it lets us really understand your thought process and get a better grasp of the class mechanics, so we can use this information even if we are working on a different build or configuration. Your videos are very specific and detailed and I like that about them. Keep it up!
Thank you very much 🙂 That is exactly one of the things I had in mind when I made this guide this long
agreed
awesome, just tried this build out. Alot more intricate than a minion build
Thank you very much 🙂 Glad you like it!
Thank you so much for your work, it really helps as a new player!
It makes me very happy to know it helps! So, thank YOU very much 🤗
Love love love. Gonna try this build! This is perfect and not long at all!!!!

Thank you for discussing options.
Too many of these type of videos focus on only one option
Glad it was helpful! And I always include other options in my builds
thank you so much
I am glad you liked it! Thank YOU 🙂
Torment condition damage has been changed from moving targets to stationary targets. This seems like a huge nurf for scourge on top on their notorious small damage. Is it steal reliable to play open world scourge like before that change? Why did they nurf it?
Yes this build is still VERY reliable in open world content. Scourge is my main in open world and that did not change after the patch. And I think we need to clarify some points.
1- The torment change is a nerf in WvW & PvP, but it's a buff for PvE, since most of the time the enemies don't move as much.
2- Scourge DOES NOT do small damage. In fact, it's easily my one of the top damage dealing classes for open world and it offers a lot of sustain.
3- Scourge is not one of the highest damage dealing classes in group content, however this depends on many many factors. 75% of the time if I use a DPS Scourge build in group content, I am always one of the top DPS
Longer longer longer... Before I watch this video I didnt know how it works and coulnd drop my reaper. Thanks man
My pleasure! Glad you know it helped you 🙂
im a new player and watching ur videos is really helping me thank you
It always makes me happy to know my guides are helpful to anyone 🙂 And I do have a whole playlist of guides on how to make some gold, all of them should be very easy to do for new players : th-cam.com/play/PLdy9lW1_DfZ4aEkn0Lz_jKZZH6BFRpVGl.html
Hello Johny! Thank you so much for the great video! After all patches and Rune of Tormenting being nerfed, what changes would you make to the build(if any)? What is your choice of Runes now-days? Thank you!!!!!!
Hey Malinky! Glad you liked the build 🙂
I would change the weapons to Trailblazer to add a bit more extra sustain. And if we want to change Tormenting, we'll need to change a few more things in the build overall. Here is a link with all the changes:
gw2skills.net/editor/?PSwAs+ZlNwwYasHGJWaX9PTA-zRRYkJNMTlIAPI5igupQoCwx0IjnNA-e
Did that answer your question?
Great! Thank you! Looking forward to try it! Best wishes, Malinky
this great, i already know that my Reaper is going to be my main, but in WoW i was a healer which is something i missed in my time playing as a god of death, then i learned that the scourge can provide some of the best heals in a different kind of way... Not letting taste sweet relief that is death 😈, so i can't wait to learn this class as well :)
That's great! I hope you enjoy healing Scourge when you try it
Hi, I started watching your vids after a while and I love them.
Quick question, what runes you recommend to put on armor?
Thank you 🙂Glad you liked them
I would say the best option all around for most situations would be Rune of the Undead
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Thanks ^^
really interesting build. is this build still can be applied with the latest patch?
Yes it still works fine 👍 I hope it works out for you when you try it
Please consider doing an Elementalist guide. I'm decent with every other class but I cannot for the life of me make the Ele work for me.
I promise I will 🙂 I just have a couple of gold guides first, then will work on more build guides, which will include ele
Great video! Some really useful things I didn't know yet! :) I 'switched' about a month ago from my power reaper to condi scourge just to try something different and scourge is insanely fun. My build is a slightly different version to the MetaBuild open world condi scourge. Full trailblazer (1 exotic, rest ascended by now) with rune of the undead and the death magic skills. With death magic you apply carapace to yourself everytime you apply poison to an enemy, so your toughness increases with every stack of poison and rune of the undead increases your condi damage by 7% of your toughness... increase your sustain and damage at the same time! :D Almost unkillable with 25.5k life and all the barriers you are spaming by just using your skills and an AoE monster as well with epidemic, ghastly breach and desert shroud! :D
Thank you! Glad you liked the video 🙂 What you said is great for sustain indeed and I am sure with Death Magic, you'll be very very tanky. For me personally, I did not find it was needed at all. I am able to solo any content in GW2, including bounties, dungeons, fractals, etc..
Yes, you're right! It's not really needed and I'm already thinking about changing trinkets to viper stats. They are much easier to get than weapons or armor. :D
the length of a video is completely unimportant if the content deserves it - Well done ! 👍
That is a good point ! Thank you 🙂
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny You`re welcome !! 👍
Johny!!
Cant believe my ears when i heard your voice, it’s envy back from HG/DAWN/DUSK
HEY ENVY !! Of course I know who you are 😉Long time no see my friend. I hope you are doing well 🙂
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I miss the old times when u were commanding, when i came across your video it was such a surprise! But i must say they are great and i hope you continue to do well. I will be supporting!! :)
It makes me very happy to know you liked them 🙂And thank you very much for the support. It's appreciated
super video
with this build can you kill champions or leg alone?
Yes you can 🙂 I do it all the time and I am not really a good player. Just make sure not to panic, and don't hesitate to go more tanky if needed
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Thank you very much for the help
My pleasure!
Thank you for this great guide, very in depth and to the point!
I got a question thats been troubling me though about gearing:
Would going full trailblazer be overkill in terms of tank stats? Im new to the game still and have some trouble dodging stuff, but I was wondering if full trailblazer is a waste of stats compared to viper even for a newer player. Im mostly interested in managing to solo harder open world content, like some HoT hero points.
Not at all 🙂 If you go full Trailblazer you will have amazing sustain and still very good damage.
What I personally would recommend is start with Trailblazer, and do whatever content you want to do. And in few days, try to do the same thing again but maybe switch out one of the trinkets to Viper if you already have that, or another cheap alternative from the TP like Rampager or something. If you felt like your sustain was still good, then stick with the viper. Keep repeating that until you feel like you have a good balance you are happy with
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Alright thanks, Ill invest in full trailblazer for now and try the gradual switch to viper later.
That sounds good 👍 I did the same thing step by step. I do not have full Trailblazer or full Viper, but I have a mix of them that works well for me
Awesome, exactly what I was searching for. Do you think that is possible to make a viable power build for scourge or condi is the way to go? Tyty
Glad you found it helpful 🙂 And yes you can run a power Socurge if you want to, but I am not sure when I'll possible be able to make a guild on it. I have a couple more videos planned ahead, and Wintersday is around the corner
Very nice video but i do have a question i found that scourge builds are very open in how you build them. I'm trying to go with Trailblazer minion build with undead runes and viper weapon and trinkets? Do you think it is going to work, or do you have other suggestions? Should I go for a different set of runes, maybe? I know i will not be able to flip insignia for viper don't have mats and money for it, so that Trailblazer will stay, but I'm currently farming winterberry for trinkets, so i have an open choice there. Any thoughts?
I am very very sorry for the late reply. Still really busy right now.
I think that will work for sure. You'll have tons of sustain and a decent amount of damage.
Great video. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
A thought wouldn't superior runes of lich be one of the better alternatives to tormenting runes and of course nightmare runes?
It is one of the good options indeed 🙂
This has been super helpful for me, thank you! Any chance you've got Scourge Guides for other modes (PVP & Fractals mostly)??
I am very glad to hear that! And I plan to do that for sure. Lately I have been really busy and not able to make any TH-cam guides, but I hope I can get back to them in a couple of weeks, and will do more build guides then 😉
is there a mix between a supportive and dps necro build ?
There is for sure. But what do you intend to use it for?
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny so I was running the lab the last days, and sometimes my group struggled to survive, so I did change stuff so my shroud heals, but was still using the berserker gear (very suboptimal I know now) but it often it was enough
Also I realy enjoy the staff (I'm very noob, started like a month ago)
Welcome to GW2 !! I hope you have been enjoying it so far 🙂
What you did is exactly the right thing. At the end of my video, I explained some changes you can make to the build, that will help in exactly the situations you're talking about, and one of them is the heal shroud thing you did, so good job 🙂 But there is a little bit more you can do without changing gear or anything, so just check that part out in my video.
Staff is great for tagging and farming mobs and events like that.
Are their any builds using punishments I’m not really a fan of signets.
For me personally, I don't use them too often in open world builds. But they are not a bad option and you can use them instead of signets without affecting the build too much. You may just have a bit of a problem with life force without signet of undeath
Thanks for making this video. I was a base necro for a while enjoying the staff, but I recently tried this condi scourge. I find myself way more squishy for some reason, and unable to stay alive with the most basic mobs. I'm curious if there is a common error when playing this build, and how to increase survivability? Thanks again!
Are you playing this exact build? Same traits, same skills, same gear?. If not, can you maybe give me a link or something for your current build? I am only asking because then I can tell you what to change.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I am using almost this exact build, I still need about 80HP to finalize the scourge line. I am dire exotics gear/weapons with scavenging runes, rings accessories a little behind. I know I still need better gear, is that the key to Condi builds? Link to build: imgur.com/a/kuBC0hX
The gear is fine, I don't think you should have that much problems with it. It looks like your problem is mainly getting used to Scourge as Specialization. Try to use your shroud skills more often, they're all very useful for sustain and damage.
I would also suggest using Undead runes, and switching some traits and skills around to give you more sutain.
gw2skills.net/editor/?PSAUWATjhxmYjYp9U9MB-e
This will reduce your damage and increase your sustain by a lot, which should enable you to learn your class and take your time. After your gain more experience with it, you can switch things around again to more DPS
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny Interesting death magic instead of Reaping or the blood magic mod at the end of the vid. I'll give this a shot. Would you say the next step would be to switch Death magic into Blood magic, and then eventually into the build you suggest in the main portion of the vid? *edit for reaping instead of curses
The next step is to put Soul Reaping instead of Death Magic or Curses, you'll have to test that yourself and see the effect on sustain. But I'd suggest playing with Death magic for like a week at least to get a feel for the build and know how it works.
What is that one hot key marked "U"?
It is a skill you get when in the Golem Training Area. It recharges all your skills
Very good video! I've recently acquired some of the gear baecause I wanted to try out Scourge. I may end up trying yours since maintaining shades and shroud skills and scepter/torch skills is taking a lot of effort... I think using signets might be the way to reduce the typewriter effect... :)
I really hope I'm gonna master it. I've tried some power reaper "unkillable OP roxxor" builds but it's just not the case... soloing champions or bounties or even Hero Points can be challenging... When I saw what Scourge could do I decided to try and switch... I hope I can make it! I really want to make my necromancer work since I played one in GW1... It would be a shame if I can't find ny use for it... Or at least have some fun playing it.
This is my main build for PvE. I can solo anything with it, since it is really versatile. If I needed some sustain, I can use a minion, or if the fight was too hard, I can also use the death magic trait line with more minions. But 99% I don't even use any minions and I solo anything. If you had any problems with the build and was still not able to solo stuff, feel free to contact me on discord, and I will help you out 😉
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I'll try and let you know... So far I can't defeat the champion golem dummy in the fractals lobby... but maybe with your build it'll change!
I hope so. Keep me updated 🙂
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny I've tried your build this afternoon and managed to defeat the champion golem dummy on the first try. It was really smooth to use, I guess the life force regen and such were a great help... And you don't really need a second weapon set. I'll try in the open world and see how it fares, but so far i really like this scourge build!
That is great to hear! I hope it works well for you in open world too 🙂
Honestly in terms of Armor I personally prefer Trailblazer (Rabid for Budget) with Viper Weapons and Dire/Viper Trinkets, the extra survivability makes it prob one of the most safe options for open world. Thats (As always) just personal preference though, since you already deal a lot of damage with the conditions and unlike say Condi Soulbeast you dont use Power that well imo (At least when compared to Reaper or the affor mentioned Soulbeast). It is weaker for Zergs though so thats something to keep in mind. For Zerging Viper probably still is the best Armor for Condi builds.
Thank you for the feedback! Always appreciated 🙂
Hi! I just finished maxing out my Scourge skills today. Is this build still relatively viable for a newbie Scourge/GW2 player? Looking for something that's solid in Open World/Questing stuff.
Yes it will work just fine!
I’d like to see your take on the weaver if you haven’t done so already
I intend to do guides for all classes and specs, so a guide for the weaver will happen for sure 🙂
However, I apologize in advance, but it will most likely be one of the last build guides I'll do.
hey bro , im now rolling a condi damage on reaper necro with mixed of tralblazer and dire gear and weapons , i can survive any fight easly but not sure about damage , i already have scourge spec but didnt use it , do you think i should go scourge for more damage or stay as condi reaper ?
I think you should go scourge yes 🙂
Condi Reaper will do more bursty damage when in reaper shroud.
But Scourge will offer high damage the whole time with your shroud skills, shades, and torch. On top of that, it will offer much more sustain
If I get viper armor will that make me too squishy?
I personally use Viper Weapons & Trinkets with Trailblazer Armor, and it's working fine and I can handle almost all content. And when it gets rough, I put extra trailblazer.
So I would say Viper is fine, but keep a couple of trailblazer trinkets with you just in case
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny thanks for the reply man. I was just browsing the marked and cant find all the Viper gear that I need I guess people just ran out 🤣
Remember that you can also craft them yourself, or get them from any source of stat selectable armor
Does this build still work? I know there have been some changes so just wondering? Thanks in advance!
Yes it does 🙂
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny so same runes ie tormentting? etc? are there alt runes till one can afford the torment ones as well?
For cheaper options, I would suggest : "Superior Rune of the Undead" Or "Superior Rune of Balthazar"
You'll also need this food with either of them : "Meaty Asparagus Skewer"
Is this at all viable for higher level fractals? I'm finding that my reaper build for fractals is no longer viable pas scale 70.
If you can tell me what exactly is the problem with your current reaper build, I can tell you if this will be a better option or not.
But this build should be fine in high level fractals, if you'll do them with a casual group, but not a hardcore or speed run group.
@@GamingTutorialswithJohny mostly my problem with my reaper build is not enough susstain. I'm mostly a casual daily fractal runner for pugs
In that case, this build should give you more sustain than the reaper build. I would recommend starting with Full trailblazer until you learn how to use the build properly.
After that slowly start changing your trinkets one by one to viper until you have a good balance between sustain and damage
A guide of my main character, nice :D
I hope you enjoy it and find it useful 🙂
help ppl to read DMG using the golem to inprove the DPS to get into fractalas T1>T2>T3>t4 then raids
That is a very good idea. I hope I will have enough time for it before EoD
Hoping you would do ranger soon. I like your scourge build. It's helped me understand more about Scourge greatly - thank you o7
Really glad to hear that 🙂 And I already have a Soulbeast build guide. It doesn't go in depth like the scourge one did, but you can check it out if you want : th-cam.com/video/TCK25ExuwOs/w-d-xo.html
I plan to make an in depth video guide for all classes and elite specs in the future as well
Hey Johny, is this build still viable?

Hey Fevered, yes it is. This build is very close to what I use for my Scourge in open world, which is my main
