Soul Reaping



Soul Reaping is a Necromancer exclusive attribute. It works by giving the character "X" energy whenever creatures die near you, where "X" is the Soul Reaping attribute rating. There are currently no skills that use Soul Reaping.

Guild Wars Description
"For each (Attribute) point of Soul Reaping, you gain 1 Energy whenever a creature near you dies."

General Description
Generally, for normal adventuring play, a rating of 4, 5, or 6 (including rune/tattoo bonuses) is plenty; the primary purpose of Soul Reaping is to keep boosting your energy as your team kills things, and if you're fighting very sporadically (such as a random PVP battle) it's not going to be nearly as useful.
