Necropotence Update when?

notyuu

It's very simple, when are they going to update necropotence by removing the pet requirement, and thus allowing every class to get the full 5/5 from the set rater than only two of them [whicha re eh at best]

it's sister set, hulking drauger doesn't have special requirements..just get the 5 pieces, put them on and boom, +stam for days

it's cousin set, plague doctor doesn't have any special requirements, just get the 5 pieces, put them on and boom, +health for days

so why in the ever-loving *** does necropotence have you need to get all 5 pieces, then pull a summon out of your ass just to get the full effect?

and no, I'm saying nerf it, I'm saying update it, ya know..take the pet requirement out but leave the +max mag in

Or simply nerf it.

Umm... I'm not sure if this is a serious concern or if you are just trolling.

This is a good one

(5 items) While you have pets active, increase Max Magicka by 3150

The set is based around the pet idea, its a niche set. The set isn't overperforming so thers no reason to nerf it

Maybe more sets that help with stacking max mag will be introduced

Only 2 classes use it currently, both of which suck.

Pet sorcs haven't been relevant for a while and magicka warden is the worst class in the game.

Nerfing Necro would make the weak even weaker. It isn't overperforming by any metric.

I'm being quite Serious, I mean come on, why is the set that increase maximum magicka made in such a way that if you're not a sorc or a wardern you can only get 4 out of the 5 set bonus to work....it's just moronic.

If I say, wanted to use the set on an Mdk or magplar..or zos forbid a maglbade, I can only get 4/5 bonus to work..due to lacking a pet.

Don't get me wrong, I don't believe in nerfs. I just said that because its so damn cool these days.

Malacthulhu

Stacking max magic seems to me to be easier then stacking max stam. If you were trying to balance against stam wouldn't you just want something with heafty magic dmg bonuses which we already have?

Hurtfan

No nerf plz, am currently golding out this set for vMA...

This game revolves around me so at least wait until I clear vMA

I'm not saying nerf it, I'm saying is take pet requirement out so all classes can use it.

Shade counts as a pet so magblades can and do use it.

Acrolas

Necropetence is more related to a conditional set like Green Pact or Destruction Mastery. It's debatable whether Necrop would benefit from a resource/recovery split like Pact as opposed to being all resource, or changing one of the 1-4 pieces to recovery instead of resource.

But Necrop was never intended to be a max set. That's why its max magicka was reduced in Update 15.

Hulking Draugr also provides less stats than Necropotence does.

Just use Destruction Mastery if you don't want to use a pet but want big max magicka bonuses. Quit trying to remove everything unique and niche from the game.

Summon Shade counts as a pet on a magblade

Zorgon_The_Revenged

Doesn't the sphere from the Engine Guardian set count as a pet? So basically any class can get the full 5/5 (just not 100% of the time).

They would have to nerf the amount of magicka to make it a mag version copy of the Hulking set.

You could also use a 2/4/3/3 setup with willpower rings, 4 necro and there might be a 2 mag bonus on the 2/3 bonus somewhere. I might check.

They "can" use it. That doesn't mean they should

DeadlyRecluse

Necro is the single most efficient set for stacking magicka (or any resource, really) and has a drawback to compensate. That...seems fair.

It sees a lot of play on magicka classes with Shadowrend, esp. in duels--I've seen really effective DKs and templars doing this, though it's not my cup of tea.

A magicka equivalent of hulking draugr would be pretty cool, though.

We all have “options” even sorcs have to give stuff up to run it. At least mnb only gives up 1 skill slot.

Osteos

They could change the DK's inferno into a small flame atronach then DKs could use it as well.

Nevasca

Technically any class can use it if they run Shadowrend or Engine Guardian. I know a lot of sorcs run Necro+EG with no pets in BGs.

EDIT: Personally, I love sets that change the way you build or the way your play instead of giving you x stats or x proc. Necropotence should not be changed.

zParallaxz

Just saying if this happens, I will destroy all on my magdk with a 50k+ mag build, 4.2k+ spell damage, 1500 + mag recov, this will bring magdk and magplar into top spots in pvp but the forums will be ridden with nerf those classes.

Dracane

Leave it as it is. Not every set must be the same.

this highlights how silly of an idea it is, "just give everyone necropotence...because... reasons" it seems.

Hard to support something like that

Artemiisia

lol at this thread, it would be the same if people complained about vicious ophelia set, why does it only give stamnia back

with 100 sets in the game, you choose to make a thread about the only viable set that is used by sorcs for pet builds, and its not even as strong as other builds ingame

#OPsorcHater

zParallaxz

It’s silly asf but I would enjoy for a time being hehehe.

Beardimus

3 classes can use it, or with a few of the monster helms anyone can on a proc.

Raudgrani

Sorcs are having such a hard time. Only +50k magicka without their pet... :-(
