7K Necro Bash... Is this for real?

This seems kind of overpowered. The guy was just going around deleting people in 2 seconds with this bash.

Tonnopesce

He was in goliath form so bash is like an ultimate in that state.

Necro tank is OP. Necro anything else is luke warm at best.

Shantu

That's just stupid. Reminds me why I don't PVP anymore.

Sounds like a classic case of being impatient that got you all killed. Goliath form only lasts 20 seconds and you can still use CC to hinder his approach while you stall out the clock. After Goliath runs out the Necro Tank will be vulnerable with little dps options and you can take him out.

Considering 7k dmg is low compared to most fully charged heavy attacks and that's an ultimate ability, yeah, that is real.

And it's fine too.

Gundug

Did you try spending magicka to activate abilities? That will increase your combat effectiveness.

Konstant_Tel_Necris

Should it use ultimate per bash and be toggle like Overload?

rossk25

"hey look all. I died to X class that did Y damage!!!
THIS IS OP. NERF!!!!!!!!"

KhajiitFelix

Only if they remove shields from sorcs and cloak from NBs

Insco851

Rip lol

the BASH-O-MATIC 9000 is back bb!

it only took 5 years, a new class, and one of that classes ultimate's, but that just ensures nobody saw it coming!

@Xsorus MAKE IT SO!

except fire staff heavy is what, 10-11k? Thats 5-6k after battlespirit, 20% or so from CP, 10-20% off armor so drops it to like 3-4k.
That 7k bash, is like a 23k tolltip lol.

I also heard, that if you bash in the air, it will cause the dmg around you without the bash cost

ah yes, if you don't want to get deleted by a 7k bash, just run away. this goes for any other abilities that have ever been overpowered, just run away bro lol. also only "tanks" use the goliath ult, no one runs s/b in pvp and does damage and in fact there is no one in pvp who builds around s/b with high weapon damage and reduced bash cost to bash weave. what am i even reading.

Wing

you can tell when something is OP, people jump to its defense telling you how bad it is and all the ways to deal with it.

You make WoW forums looking like a nice play to hang around.

I don't play a necromancer, but I don't think this is OP. It's a 250 cost ultimate. The bone goliath form is very obvious and only lasts 20 seconds. You basically just get the hell out of dodge when a necro uses this and try to stall for time. After stalling for 20 seconds you re-engage. Learn to play issue simply put.
And yes I too foolishly attacked a necromancer in goliath form (the AOE morph) because I had no idea how it worked, and yes I died.

I heard that one before, but in reference to an Ice cold jerky-jerk AOE snare ultimate. Now we get a juicy big-bone 7k, after mitigation .

I actually want to see that now. Watch a "meta" snareden snare a necro in place, only to eat multiple 7k bashes lol.

true. But wheres my self cast nova that lets me cast the gav crush synergy with AOE major maim for 12 seconds?

We need the devs to give us an update on the design intent for all classes so we can really get serious on feedback, because some classes are not up to par with half of the things in this game even though this patch was mostly a class skill audit lol.

Enjoy this stamina Necromancers. Your about to become a FOTM. And as a stamina warden all I can do is shed a tear for what’s about to happen as a result.

"just don't engage" and "run away" isn't valid counter-play. if an ability is so good that your only option is to opt out of combat entirely, it's too good. bash weaving with a 7k bash is hilariously broken, it's literally an extra 7k dps for 20 seconds for builds that can sustain it. it's like adding a 7k damage proc to your light attacks for the duration, lol. 2k light attack, 3k heroic, 7k bash is 12k dps, which means you'd be pretty much 2 shotting people. in what world is that balanced?

HI GOT THE SAME PROBLEM WITH DK
CORROSIVE KILLED ME IS THIS FOR REAL??? I WAS STANDING THERE IN BLOCK LIKE I USUALLY DO AND HE DID SO MUCH DMG AND THEN I READ THE ULT AND I WAS SHOCKED. IT IGNORES ARMOR WTF? IS THIS FOR REAL? PLS NERF TY

Honestly, the Necro Ultimate "bash build" is one of those one-trick pony builds. It gets very, very boring quickly. (Think on the lines of high health "Blazeplars" {which don't really exist anymore} and IceDens who have strong Gripping Shards.)

You'll probably see this build running around for a couple of weeks and then people will get tired of having to wait to reach 250 ultimate to eventually do damage to other players.

In regards to it being 250 ulti, do you gain ultimate while transformed?

It's just an ult, you don't really need to build around it if you're already s/b, you just need to slot it.
