Necromancy!!! Now is it a class or skill line or part of spell crafting? I do hope they add a toggle to hide friendly pets so we don't need to look at every ones undead minions in town as well as the sorc pets and warden bears.

Terion_Fyr · January 2019

yes, finaly necromancer. i hope so..

Necromancer summons would be duration based and not permanent.
From a lore perspective, it's a terrible idea to make necromancy available. Necromancy is despised by normal people and is only practiced in secret. Having undead minions flooding our social cities would be so wrong and stupid.

But be it thus. It was only a matter of time until ZoS would give in to the cash calls.

A class most likely as the new flavour text for Chapter III was already datamined.

I opened up a comprehensive thread with all the datamining: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/451861/datamined-chapter-iii-the-elder-scrolls-online-elsweyr#latest

If there are a bunch of dragons or dragons teaching the thu'um and spells, ESO finally jumped the shark and pissed all over Elder Scrolls established lore. It was already shakey. They do this, this isn't an elder scrolls game. Just a game in an alternate universe. Don't @ me about dragon breaks.

Just a reminder that we have a space station in the lore.

They decide what is canon players don't have anything to say about that

Who decides? ESO or Bethesda? Is ESO canon as far as the single player titles?

Sav72 · January 2019

My opinion,

It will be a new class, ESO , needs some thing new.

Yes, it is.

That's what both Bethesda and Zenimax Online Studios said. It's a fact and your opinion doesn't matter at all.

Both of them belong to the Zenimax Media company either way

Wonder if the dragon references the Dragonguard or Blades of Cyrodiil.

Dragons can teach magick arts. Enchanting, for example. So why can't they teach spellcrafting?

we haven't learned how to walk while holding a torch in our hand...and u want to learn spellcrafting? outrageous!

Whoa, it was a question. No need to attack me. I was just curious. It's really cool because sometimes I go back and play those other titles. It will be interesting to see now that most of the stuff that happened in the past games actually didn't, how the next single player title will handle that.

I didn't try to attack you. Either way most of the stuff happens, except some minor quests and daggerfall dragonbreak ending

I'm hoping it just means Spellcrafting is coming, but Necromancy will be a seperate purchase.

I mean, it says Necromancy and not Necromancer which would have pointed to a class. And Necromancy is a subschool of Conjuration, but deserves its own skill line due to being so different and being generally frowned upon by the peoples of Nirn.

Edit: Ew, just read the datamined text in the other thread which states it's a new class. Introducing it as a class instead of bringing Spellcrafting which would have included it is a lot of wasted potential.

So we are getting TES:V, but in Elsweyr? Sounds weird. Also "an unexpected climax." lol.

It could be a necromancy-staff like skill line.

ZOS and Bethesda work closely on lore per Lawrence Schick. "Canon" isn't really a useful term when discussing TES lore since Bethesda/ZOS has been pretty firm about not providing "Word of God" answers to things, starting with the dragon break that resolved the multiple endings to Daggerfall.

Every game has made changes to existing lore, especially the major lore re-write that came in with Redguard and the First Edition of the PGE. Morrowind added to that, Oblivion completely changed Cyrodiil, Skyrim made more changes, and ESO has mostly filled in a lot of gaps in the history. In some ways, ESO is closer to the Redguard/Morrowind era vision of Tamriel than to the later games.

Chaos2088 · January 2019

People it says Necromancy collectable....could be anything....could even be a pet! lol

For all those who wondered it's from UESP discord, pts spoilers subthread.

LukosCreyden · January 2019

@Dracane You missed the boat on the whole social taboo thing, bud. Unless you forgot about the hordes of vampires and werewolves in all the cities.

As for lore-breaking, not at all. Necromancy is the opposite. Sure, raising the dead in the middle of town would be taboo, but then again, so would turning into a werewolf, or summoning a swarm of bats as a vampire.

Valamist · January 2019

Hmm... I must admit, I did not think we would be going to the home of the Khajiit. Though we would be going... Elsweyr... Just hope this new story against ancient beasts does not Dragon... Play as a Necromancer? Over my dead body...

Which I despise just as much. ZoS will do it anyways. But I will never like it or agree with it.
Maybe this is because I am very dedicated to the Aedra and can't stand all these darkness loving people who celebrate Daedra and Death.

LukosCreyden · January 2019

@Dracane Fair enough. Have an awesome for your opinion. Some more focus and lore-building on Aedroth would be wonderful.

Thank you, kind Lich.

Something about Aedra would delight me more than being fed acacia honey by my friend.
Aedra are mysterious and unreachable and I wouldn't have it any other way. But some more aedric cults and lore would be very welcome.

Callous2208 · January 2019

Lol I just noticed. Guess you'll be changing that sig now!

gepe87 · January 2019

Cats and necromancers just dont match. But im ok with that as long they do a coherent storyline.
