Condi (Quick) Harbinger

The Condi Harbinger provides high Condition damage while having some self-generated boons due to Elixirs as well as some group Might through Blood Is Power . You can also adapt your build to provide Quickness as well as share your Elixir boons with your group. You can also upkeep 25 stacks of Vulnerability on your own after the initial ramp-up.

The Condi Harbinger is more squishy than other Necromancer builds because it loses maximum health due to the Blight mechanic and Harbinger Shroud does not act as a second health bar. However, even with maximum Blight stacks, you will still be at around 15k health.

Calculate

Blight

• Using Elixir skills and staying in Harbinger Shroud will inflict Blight on you, reducing your maximum health by 1.5% per stack (up to 37.5% at 25 stacks).
• Septic Corruption increases the damage you deal with conditions for each stack of Blight.
• Alchemic Vigor heals you every second for each stack of Blight.
• Certain skills consume some Blight when you are above a treshold to deal more damage. Namely, Devouring Cut (Shroud 3) and Voracious Arc (Shroud 4) and your Elixirs when above 5 stacks of Blight except for Elixir of Ambition which has a 10 stack threshold.

Pistol Skills

• Your auto-attack Vicious Shot deals good damage and will be used to fill any gaps in the rotation.
• Weeping Shots sends out multiple bullets and fills up Life Force for each bullet that hits an enemy. This skill also pierces which can be useful to help with the anomaly at Arkk as an example.
• Vile Blast fires a dart that, on impact, will explode and give you some Life Force per enemy hit and Stun as well as inflict Weakness and Poisoned.

Harbinger Shroud

• Unlike on core Necromancer or Reaper, your Harbinger Shroud will not absorb the damage for you while inside.
• You can enter Harbinger Shroud even at 0 Life Force since entering gives you 15% life force due to Corrupted Talent .
• While in Harbinger Shroud , you constantly gain Blight and drain Life Force.
• All of your important Shroud skills are ranged. However, part of your damage comes from Doom Approaches which has a small radius around you. The same goes for Quickness uptime through Deathly Haste .
• Your auto-attack Tainted Bolts deals damage around your target.
• Dark Barrage fires out 6 bolts. If you stand too far away, some bolts will miss the target.
• Devouring Cut dashes you to your target and then damages enemies on impact. If you are already in melee range, you can cancel this skill right away and still deal damage. If above 5 Blight, this attack will consume 5 stacks and deal extra damage.
• Voracious Arc leaps you into the targeted area while evading, deals damage and Daze the enemy. If above 5 Blight, this attack will consume 5 stacks and deal extra damage.
• Vital Draw is a strong CC skill that will deal 300 break bar damage to enemies around you. It pulses 1 second of float each hit which will trigger Insidious Disruption 3 times.

Elixirs

• Using an Elixir grants you Boons (that are shared with your allies when running Twisted Medicine ). Then the elixir will be thrown at your target location inflicting Conditions on your enemy.
• If you are in the splash area of the Elixir, you gain Blight.
• If you are above the Blight threshold (5 for heal/utility, 10 for the elite), you will lose this amount of Blight to enhance the damage of the Elixir.
• The most commonly used Elixirs are Elixir of Promise , Elixir of Ambition and Elixir of Anguish with Elixir of Promise and Elixir of Ambition being used for damage. Elixir of Anguish is used for its quickness.
• Elixir of Bliss can help cleansing conditions while Elixir of Ignorance acts as a stun-break. However keep in mind that delaying your Elixirs also means delaying your Blight application.

Important Traits

• Twisted Medicine (Quickness variant) shares the boons from Elixirs with the group helping to upkeep many different boons. It also converts 13% of your Vitality into Concentration which, in fractals, allows us to run without any additional Concentration gear for the Quickness variant.
• Deathly Haste (Quickness variant) pulses Quickness around you while in Shroud. Together with the Elixirs, this is your main way of keeping up this boon for your group.
• Dark Gunslinger (DPS variant) reduces the cooldown of Pistol skills. It also converts 13% of your Vitality into Expertise which allows us to run with Superior Rune of the Trapper and almost cap both Bleeding and Torment duration.
• Doom Approaches (DPS variant) pulses Torment around you while in Shroud.

General Information

• Enter Harbinger Shroud approx. every 20 seconds.
• You gain Life Force when units around you die or from some skills, namely Weeping Shots , Vile Blast and Devouring Darkness as well as entering Harbinger Shroud .
• Use Plague Signet to transfer conditions you get from Blood Is Power to the boss. Deathly Swarm should only be used if you gain additional conditions from enemies or missed Plague Signet .
• Use all 3 Elixirs off-cooldown to keep up Blight. Elixir of Promise and Elixir of Anguish have the same cooldown. Use Elixir of Promise last to ensure you are using it above the Blight threshold doubling the duration of the Poisoned it applies.
• Try to stay on Pistol as much as possible. Ideally, you will never use a single auto-attack on Scepter. It is just for using Devouring Darkness and Grasping Dead before and after every other Harbinger Shroud . Enfeebling Blood will be used before Harbinger Shroud but not after.

Notes

• Fill in any remaining gaps in the loop with Pistol auto-attacks.
• Devouring Cut has a cast-time but does its damage even if you cancel the skill right away.
