Discordway without EotN?

I don't have the Eye of the North expension, so I wondered if an adjusted Discordway hero build would still work.

I only have acces to two Necromancer heroes, so I guess that's the biggest loss. Next to that I don't have acces to Putrid Bile, which seems strong, but not necessary. Does anyone have any suggestions?

If Discordway is simply not viable without EotN, what build should I be running until I get EotN?

Thanks in advance,
Max

The fact you'll only have 2 necro heroes is a difficulty. You could use a different hero or something (ele with a high e-storage?) and spec Death at 12, but the lack of Soul Reaping will hinder it.
I've never really considered Putrid Bile as necessary, I don't think I usually bring it.

Another big loss is the lack of PvE skills - the human player would normally bring [Assassin's Promise][You move like a dwarf][Finish Him][Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support] - you'll have to find a way of replacing [You Move like a dwarf] and the others - [enfeeble] is nice because it's a short cast time and spammable (although [enfeebling blood] is usually better).

I'm not sure how well it would work with only 2 necros, give it a go and find out.

There are so many variations you can run. You should have no problems or issues using an ele or mesmer hero instead of Livia. I myself would run a ele hero with an r12 in death and a r12+1 in energy storage, but thats me. Having a mesmer run a discord skill bar like Upier said would be nice for the added interrupts. Play around with both and find one you like.

I would buy EoTN when you can. It is buy far my favorite of all the campaigns. Getting Livia and the PVE skills are just one bonus to having EoTN. I think the dungeons are the best part. Have fun.
