    Unlike most sorcs; I also cannot summons pets.. all I have are vanity pets

    I believe that vanity pets should be able to do damage.. precisely, the Monkey.

    The Monkey should be able to throw his own *** matter causing the opponent to be stunned for at least 4 secs (long enough for him/her to realize the seriousness of what just occurred). Furthermore, depending on where your monkey came from, he may also be able to cause disease in addition to the stun.

    I'm sure that we can all agree that a disease infested, *** pelting monkey with a bad attitude would be a welcome addition in our land of Tameriel and then everyone would be happy, especially me !

    B)

    I don't think that's such a great idea.

    I mean, if the fight doesn't end up going the way you wanted, you could get mad...and want to take it out on your monkey. (Don't worry, PETA, we're against spanking here...)

    I can almost see the look of horror on the Templar's face...all over again.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    I gave you a LOL. Now all you have to do is figure out if it means I laughed or I disliked/disagreed with your post. B)

    Likewise.

    On both accounts.

    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    Most sets do not favor the mage at all (I said most not all). OP, why can't you just be happy for others.

    so much lol
    if that were the case everybody and their grandmother would be running that set, 12% is a big bonus, most sets only provide around 8% buff, so it has to have some sort of requirement.

    Edit, ow my bad didn't saw it was a necro

    So how does necropotence work? Is it off vanity pets or just daedric summons? And does that iInclude the storm atro?

    AT the very least there is a small irony in that the thread necromancy going on here is on a thread about the 'NECROpotence' set. >:)

    Honestly, because I didn't check the date when it was posted. Not sure why it would even matter. I just spoke my thoughts, sry if I offended.

    So I just hit VR12 and was deciding which armour sets I should be going for when I came across the Necropotence set. It bonuses are: 84 Max Magicka, 84 Max Magicka, 84 Max Magicka and then 12 % Max Magicka buff when pets are out. So I bought all of the armour via the new guild traders (great system btw Zenimax) and then equipped them, all the time under the assumption that this final buff would occur when I had my vanity pet out. To my horror I discovered that this was not the case. I pulled out my mudcrab and then put it away and my stats did not change. Now being a Templar I cannot summon pets at my leisure (only the Sorceror can), which lead me to question whether this was an intentional gameplay feature or just a bug. If it is the former I have to say that I am absolutely appalled by Zenimax- why the hell would you make an armour set only one class can use? Is this really living up to your mantra "Play the way you want to play"?! I was absolutely thrilled to get to VR12, but this has really burst my bubble. My problem is not that it doesn't count for vanity pets it is that only one class can use this armour set. Zenimax could you please either completely change this final buff or at least look into making it so that it counts for other classes too?


    I can't get enough of this :D

    LOL.

    But let's insert a substantive comment before this is locked -- there actually are three classes that can get the Necropotence 5-piece bonus:
    • Sorcerers, with any of the three pets in the Daedric Summoning line.
    • Wardens with the sustain netch that almost any warden would run. (Also with the bear ultimate, of course.)
    • Nightblades with Shades. This is more of a niche use at best, especially if I'm correct that shades now can't be summoned without starting or being in combat.
