Fairly disappointed with Necromancer

Slimebrow✭✭✭I don't really get why people think current necro has pets to begin with. They technically don't even have pets the "pets" for necro is essentially just delayed visual ability, if you get rid of the skeleton animations. Maybe if they had health bars then I guess they would be pets?
I just find it funny when people complain about necro "pets", they are not pets lol.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Want to have some mindless fun with your necro? If you’re on console, you’re in luck!
Here’s what you do: craft some bash jewelry glyphs, cheese your penetration as much as you possibly can, equip a sword and board with maxed out passives, slot Pummelling Goliath, sneak in behind 24 man raids while they’re taking keeps, transform into your godmode P2W form, wipe the entire raid in the blink of an eye with your 10k+ aoe bashes every 0.5 seconds, and teabag the bodies of your fallen enemies because what you just did took Real Big D Skill™ and they need to know it, by Azura!
ZOS apparently does not think the above daily scenario is game-breaking enough to warrant a rapid patch (on console that is, not PC — PC already got it patched). At this rate, it’s safe to say that they probably won’t fix it on console until Scalebreaker is released, so have at it!
What happens when he meets the one person that can outheal it?
When it was broken on PC I managed to survive it every time on my templar, except when there was a ball group behind the basher.
You have to see it coming to outheal it.
Console bashers wait until your backs are turned as you’re entering the keep to transform and attack. I guess the only solution is to moonwalk into keeps until ZOS decides that maybe, just maybe? they should fix bashers on console. 0 -
If the reason we don't have more pets is because their design team can't make it work on the current engine, then that is an absolutely complete and utterly *** poor excuse of a reason.1 -

I think I said that didn't I? They're basically not pets, just hots and dots.
The defining attribute of a pet for me is something that will at the very least take some aggro off you even if it's not permanent.
None of the current pets do that which is severely disappointing.0 -
buttaface✭✭✭✭✭Thank goodness they didn't make it into another perma pet crutch class "pet wizard" like pet sorcs and wardens. That ESO has so many pet classes (aimbots) and quasi pet classes makes it a joke as it is.1

✭✭✭The necro should never have been a class. But rather a skill tree, so that each class can become necro.
But it's done, now.
People asked for it, now we have it.
Now people are complaining about it. What next ?

Perashim✭✭✭The only skill that summons multiple skeletons is the Animate Blastbones morph from Reanimate, though tbh it feels really out of place as a morph there. I would prefer it be the magicka morph of regular blastbones so it summons one and exploits nearby corpses to summon up to 2-3 more.
I honestly wish they changed "Avid Boneyard" to something like "Haunted Boneyard" which exploits any nearby corpses for tempo zombies or wraiths.
But I totally agree with OP about increasing the duration of the "pets (even though they aren't)" to something like 25-30 seconds.Edited by Perashim on 1 August 2019 14:08"...and storms shall sunder the skies, and war will tear the world apart, and the dead shall rule the lands."0 -

OF COURSE, because the stamcro is completely over performing all class then it is not bugged !
Go on pvp, try to drop blastbone on a moving target that is not at 1 meter from you, have fun to touch your ennemy, most of the time the blastbone will not even move and stay at his position.
Then try the tether, most of the time you are targeting the corpse and spamming your key, the spell will hardly launch and sometimes the corpse will dissapear.
Find it funny to look at you posting this video, it just show once more how stupid you are. "Because it hit strong it dont have any bug"... By design stamcro is OP, but if it was working perfectly trust me that the dps will be even more violent. Now go play magicka cro, and come back with a video where the Guy sont suffer from any bug... I ll waiit, and i ll laugh.Edited by danara on 1 August 2019 14:130 -

We don't need to discuss who the stupid one is here. That is fairly obvious.
Strong or not. It's still bugged. How the class is balanced doesn't mean it's not a buggy mess. That is a totally different story.
Wait, after reading your post again, how did you not catch on the sarcasm I put in this video.?
Was the music or the oof sounds when syphon fails not enough?

The only thing I'm learning from watching these videos is how absolutely terrible magicka Necros are.
Who the HELL is going to ever use scythe? NOBODY
Shocking siphon A) requires a corpse,
has a very small aoe and C) is incredibly annoying to try to constantly be behind your targets to try to get the chain to hit them. When your armor or pets die off you can't reliably use those corpses to deal damage with it you basically have to wait for blastbones to go run in making this skill, and restoring tether absolutely stupid. 0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I'm surprised how much I like my necromancer. The edgy evilness is usually a turn-off for me.
But the corpse mechanics are actually fun (something I especially played stamplar for, which sadly sucks), I wish there were more. It probably plays the most unique out of all classes, and ESO's class design is pretty lackluster otherwise.
It's also too bad that healers get shafted next patch, necro healers are great.Alandrol Sul: He's making another Numidium?!?

It does. Its sarcastic. "Necro is flawless" as a newsflash. Because ZOS tells me it is. Since they dont fix it. They dont say that that they will fix it. The message I take from it is that zos thinks the class is flawless and bugfree.
Even though it isnt.1 -

Lack of pets
Lack of magicka abilities (that don't require a stinkin corpse)
Lack of direct damage (too much dang AoE which is easily avoidable in pvp)
I just don't get it man.0
