Necromancer teasing

Revokus · February 2018

First I would like to point out that there has been numerous necromancer teases : Reaper's harvest crown crates , necromancer personality and skin , next crown crate season will have some necromancer body and face tattoos in it and let's not forget in april : implementation for the first time of the worm cult motif for the eso anniversary event just before the next chapter comes out.
Now with all that said, with recent datamine information there is some evidence that there will be some sort of psijic class or skill line... I mean @ZOS_GinaBruno people have been asking for necromancer since the beginning of the game..if the summoning of a skeleton with the new personality is a way to appease those people who have been asking for this class for so long, then people are going to be really pissed ( myself included). I mean psijic ok but this is a secret order it would not be appropriate seeing thousands of those running around. And as I recall no one ever asked for this if that really comes to psijic being a new class....Necromancer is a huge money maker and is fitting with summerset..psijic not so much. How much more years do we have to wait for necromancer to be the missing light armor archetype in the game ? Sorry for the long rant but I wanted to give my opinion on this and hopefully I'm not the only one feeling this way.

Mannimarco was an Psijic.

Sure but Mannimarco was one of the few talented enough to be accepted in this order..like I said thousands running around as psijic does not make sens..maybe they changed the place holder for necromancer for psijic in the datamine to keep the element of surprise ? Would that be possible ?

It also wouldn't make sense to have a whole bunch of necromancers running around. Seeing as basically everyone hates them but ah well. Let's ignore that shall we.

I hope we don't get necromancers, c'mon psijics!

Seraphayel · February 2018

I'd say Psijic absolutely fits Summerset, much more than a Necromancer.

If ZOS wanted to give us a Necro we already would have it. The skillset is already in game but only for NPCs.

Necromancer would make much more sens sorry as we can see good npc necromancer everywhere in the game as long as bad ones not all affiliated with the worm cult. Like the dude trying to raise his family and has his undead wife in the kitchen etc. Sorry but you are wrong saying necromancer would make less sens than psijic.

and btw people hate assassins and thieves just as much if not more.

Not really. And they don't use dark magic or manipulate divine rules. Necromancy is seen as an abomination of magic, an anomaly. That's why it's forbidden in most parts of Tamriel and is "enemy-exclusive". I'd love to have a Necromancer skill line or class but I don't see it lore-wise.

I don't know why everyone say it's forbidden not true at all for this era. Otherwise we wouldn't see so much necromancer quest giver and npc's even if some of the npc's working for the worm cult are evil.

I really hope we don't get a necromancer class. It's pretty much universally seen as evil and a tool of the enemy/forces of evil. I much prefer the idea of Psijic guild skill line as data mining seems to hint towards to.

yeah but 90 % of this game is evil lol ESO is not all kitties and rainbows far from that but it's your opinion like huge amount of people like evil looking classes.

rynth · February 2018

I think a good compromise would be a necromancer skill line that allows for summoning undead etc. and with passives. That way a whole new class isn't created but just a skill line.

SilverIce58 · February 2018

It's not thousands of Psijics running around. The Vestige is one person. While, yes there are thousands of us running around, to an NPC it's just one person. Not once in the whole game does it mention there being thousands of people running around w/o a soul who have all defeated Molag Bal. It's a Dragon Break for a reason. Thousands of possibilities are happening during this time period. Thousands of people (in different versions of reality) are running around, doing everything or doing nothing.

I could get on board with that although I would be kinda sad of not getting a full pledged class to show the true glory of the Necromancer. Actually we kinda need a ranged dots caster in this game the only class with lots of dots is DK's but it's mostly melee. The warden has only one ranged dot. Necromancer could also have a twisting looking soul syphon ability or even some disease ranged dots who reduce healing I can already picture this in my mind xD

yeah but all other classes in this games has lots of NPC's using the same skills as all the classes Necromancer included..like npc's rooting you with talons or throwing you a sunfire dot..Psijic not really those are like really secluded people who accept only a handful of people or maybe I'm wrong.

xeNNNNN · February 2018

Just because its called psijic or w.e doesn't mean we'll join their order, in all likelihood in exchange for "something" we will learn certain things from them and the skill line will mirror the fact they taught us even if we are not one of them.

I dont think there will be a new class so soon after the warden especially with the debacles that followed with it launching, a new skill line of abilities is far more likely this time around for the next chapter.

Between the Second Era, and the third, they accepted about 17 new members to their order. The Vestige could be one of them because the Vestige has been included in every major event, so they probably figure, in order to keep the stability, it'd be better to have the Vestige join us than not. (Just my two cents)

yeah you're probably right... but here's hoping, new classes are always exciting ! even when they end up a mess

Chaos2088 · February 2018

I think the Psijic part...is going to be a guild you can join, with active and passive skills.

Warden is still the worst PvE class in the game, almost a year after release. It's also become one of the worst PvP classes after the cliff racer nerfs. ZOS has no idea how to balance a new class.

that would sure make more sens ! but what about the classe upgrade icon datamined who says psijic also ? I keep hoping it's necromancer but hidden with the psijic name xD my god I'll be crying for months if it's not the case haha allowing myself to get so hyped about Necromancer because of all the teases I mentioned we are getting before the chapter.

dodgehopper_ESO · February 2018

I think this would be better as a Skill Line (Like everything else). I vote no on classes.

That's what I like about free ESO+ week, people get access to the Blade of Woe and the Purge begins.

Not if you meet a sload that thinks it could benefit itself from teaching you some forbidden magic's.

stam warden is still to top stamina class. But mag warden is bad. They need to rework some things.

SydneyGrey · February 2018

It doesn't make sense to have thousands of assassins running around, either. Real assassins aren't very common.

But it's just a game, and I'm fully in favor of anything new that will make my game awesome.

This necromancer *** needs to go. Go play diablo if you want it so badly.

maybe you are not too familar with TES history, but necromancer skills and necromancy in general has been around since morrowind. there is no reason to go play diablo.

Highly doubt a Sload, of all races, would just teach some random adventurer forbidden magic. Sload like to take their time and think things through.

Firstly. Necromancers in this game aren't good people. The use of necromancy is frowned upon.

I don't mind if they include necromancers sure. I hope it's not a class but a world skill because this game needs more of a "your character can be anything" feel instead of just creating new classes.

Secondly, yes the Psijics are picky. But as SilverIce58 stated it will be ONE Psijic running around. When you help anyone in ESO they don't say the army of vestiges helped them, it's just the single vestige. Everyone is playing the one character. So the one character would be joining the Psijics.

I hope the Psijic stuff is all guild skills as well. With unique actives and passives instead of a new class.
