So we all know that BB is heavily bugged. But after running VMA last night I realize just how bad.
1) FOR THE LOVE OF AKATOSH LET US SUMMON BB WITHOUT TARGETING!!!!!! If warden can launch Sharks without targeting, why do Necro need to target?
2) Increase movement speed drastically. (My BB just followed the Engine Guardian around bc it couldn’t keep up)
3) Reduce cost a little bit
4)Decrease summon time

    Sounds good to me. Maybe they can re skin the thing to look more like a zombie too. You know, for the Elder Scrolls type necromancer immersion.

    I think it should still be a targeted attack, but it should lose the "The skeleton runs after the target and explodes when it gets close to them," part and make it instantly leap onto the target after being summoned. It would still spawn after 2.5 seconds, but it'd be more consistent and reliable imo.

    I haven’t really pve’d much to comment on that but In pvp I find that when I summon BB then stun my target, if my BB is a little far behind it will leap/jump to the target guarenteeing a hit.

    How ever if I don’t get a stun and the target is moving and doesn’t stop, it will instead decide to chase the target slowly until it despawns.

    I actually prefer how BB plays compared to warden bugs even if it is buggy.

    100% needs increased speed though

    No thanks, I like that it works differently to warden shalks.

    But that aside, yes the actual execution of the skill needs improvements.

    I completely agree with this, ESPECIALLY the part about not needing a target. That is my biggest frustration with necro in general. Just makes combat way too clunky. I brought this up during PTS.

    The entire Necromancer class needs tuning. The toolkit has problems everywhere.
