Let's give a round of applause for Nightblade's and Necromancer's Please

IronWooshu

The only two classes to survive scorch earth changes.

I don't know how you did it but congratulations.

unholy_nox

Not for long.

karekiz

NB was already dead. You can't kill that which isn't alive.

LukosCreyden

A lot of Necro's skills were RP only. Now they've also murdered spirit guardian lol

How you figure? Necro looks ruined to me. The entire class is build around corpse generation and they screwed the timers up.

Rex-Umbra

Necro got some pretty big nerfs.

It's healing ghost is useless dies after 3k dmg
Dot bonus damage cut by 50%.

Nightblades are in a worse spot than last patch with these changes

LOL. Yeah I only NB and damn I am stoked for the BUFFS! on just about every class ability.

Cadbury

-goes to NB secret clubhouse-

"Hey everyone! Good news! You're getting some buffs!"

-sound of crickets as Cadbury looks into an empty room strewn with cobwebs-

"Uh, anyone?Hello?"

-silence-

Nightblade is built around flawless light attacks so....

CameraBeardThePirate

Necros definitely didn't get off easy lol. Intensive mender nerf was justified because it was overperforming, but spirit guardian is now useless and corpse generation will be harder than ever with longer timers on their pets. Not to mention their spammable is still laughably bad.

They didn't get omega nerfed but if anything they needed a little bit of love in ways that would make them not have to rely on harmony bombing.

Templar might hit like a wet noodle, but the noodle is at least pleasant to use now.

Kusto

Not sure what everyone is talking about. Everyone got nerfed due to light attacks and dots but necro is the only one who got buffed otherwise. NB and warden got shafted the most.

your spammable only crits now. like, what?
this patch the most important skill you have is your spammable because the dot timers are increased and your spammable has 100% crit chance. I just ... how can you not realise what a huge buff this is?

Yup, NBs needed some attention to say the least. However, so far the parses coming from the PTS paint NBs behind everyone again--though tbf NB don't shine on the dummy like other classes--so it remains to be seen how it fares on actual content.

Urvoth

Necro got significant nerfs...

Nightblades? Just wait until OP reads up to the Oakensoul section

What is dead may never die.

100% crit on one of the best spammables in the game lol. These entire patch notes have to be a joke

Cadbury

At this point, I salute any OG NB players left. You folks are made of sterner stuff. I would have moved on to another class long before now.

IronWooshu

Some of the comments in this thread don't understand that the Necro actually got buffs and the Nightblade is really buffed.

Left my Nightblade main of 7 years a couple months back to restart fresh as a Templar main to go through everything... Tested the damage set up with around 6k spell/weapon damage..

Jabs hitting 27k, Surprise attack for 12k

Not sad I left, just disappointed in Zenimax for their awful power deltas they've left for years. Even with surprise attack 100% crit, Templar Jabs would still be hitting 150% more damage on a crit. Granted, haven't gotten to test the jab 20% nerf, the light attack nerf, and burning Light 33% nerf, but jabs are would still be outperforming any class ability spammable by far.

Now they're just making the game unfun for everyone to play, except the few true Nightblades left out there where getting a bone thrown to us is too help try to appease the Nightblade community from coming at the developers' throats for the awful changes they're trying to implement because they know we're the saltiest community. 😆 A little late for the bone throw, and not worth the expense of literally every class and combat mechanic n ability else getting thrown in the dumpster with the Nightblades.

There are some misconceptions about any necro buffs, what do you think for buffed on necro?

People who play Necro understand that this patch is a pretty big nerf. ESPECIALLY for solo Necros.

Go ahead and flank the dragons in sunspire.

Rhavein
