I think the new dragon icon will bring a new types of events on world map and it will looks like that:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esASGhAx2eI
Its not just only a world boss, but its huge event which u cant even start if there no will be a minium players number and u cant will solo it
I really really hope huge events are replacing the Dolmens / Geysirs in Elsweyr.
Events you say? Yes. Like this:

Seenoevil✭✭✭Do you think necromancers will be literal as in you need a dead corpse to cast a spell on or just conjure a portal and see what pops out?? How they implement it will be interesting0 -
Dalitrox✭WOW!!! It will be amazing! How long I was (and probably others) waiting for Elsweyr quests/chapter in ESO. Finally I have a great material for a film. Great news!2 -
Sevalaricgirl✭✭✭✭✭I buy every chapter the devs put out and I love my Khajiit, Necromancer does sound cool, hope it has a very daedric skill line to it. Everything else has a very mages guild aspect to it and that is boring as hell.1

Ananoriel✭✭✭It looks good and I feel pretty exited! I love playing necromancers in games, so this will be no exception.3 -
Goren✭✭✭I think that @Robo_Hobo made a good prediction in this thread.
You will probably level the Necromancy skill line much like the Soul Magic skill line during the main quest in Elsweyr while Abnur Tharn accompanies you.
Personally I would have loved a new dark zone in High Rock, Hammerfell or Skyrim and the introduction of a 'One Hand and Magic' skill line or a Dark Souls themed class.
Do you think they will reuse the necromancer skills that some enemies already use? Like the skeleton hand grab for example?Edited by Goren on January 6, 2019 6:35PM0 -

Imperial and Barsaebic presence in Black Marsh is old lore.ZoS found ways for Ayleids to be in Blackmarsh, Imperials to be in blackmarsh (which was never known before). It's new information, but it's not entirely impossible. You can set up everything to fit your agenda and without rewriting the lore. But that doesn't mean that you should.6 -

✭✭Like I said in another post, doesn't matter what they do with necromancer. It won't live up to players dreams and it'll be torn apart (even if it's the most balanced class ever... won't matter)0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I am too happy to be critical . ESO does great PvE . This will be awesome .6 -
OtarTheMad✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭The story will probably be centered around something caused the dragons to react, forced their hands.
EDIT- My guess? Abnur found out some are still alive and a few are hiding in Khajiit land (thanks to his relative) so what a way to get the war in Cyrodiil to end then to have dragons on your side. (of course it blows up in his face)Edited by OtarTheMad on January 6, 2019 6:46PM1 -

✭Omg this is sooo good my hype levels are throught the roof!! Thank you ZOS for always listening to your community, that for sure will keep you around for a long while
In regards to lore and whatnot I think it's time people realize ESO has to be more than a nostalgia run. It's time to think outside the box and make truly unique marks on ES lore not just follow it blindlessly. I'm very glad and hyped with this datamine!
#ESOFAM don't stop! Keep the ideas flowing !!! We gotta work for what we want for future chapters!PC/DC/NAserver

✭✭✭✭✭Elswyer sounds great but we don't need another class at this point in time I hope its a skill line
This right here. I've enjoyed the Psijic skill line and would be happy to get a necromancy skill line to use with a couple of my other existing characters. If it IS a new class though...

Abnur helped Molag Bal be defeated so it's no wonder why he'd want the Imperials back on track with separating themselves from the Molag Bal cults and also to get dragons to help his cause.0 -

Wow, way to assume you know my thoughts. Firstly, it is well known and accepted that sorcerers can summon and control daedric creatures. Nor is this considered an evil practice. It is not a desecration of the honored dead as necromancy is but rather an enslavement of a creature that would otherwise be capable of acting against the inhabitants of Nirn. Secondly, I DO and ALWAYS HAVE felt that normal people should be uneasy when they see such creatures. After all, who is to say they might not break free and start creating havoc? I would personally be perfectly okay with having them be banned in cities and merchants refusing to deal with a sorcerer who is in the company of such a potentially dangerous creature. I was fully on board with the original intent of the justice system that had planned to make it so guards would react negatively towards Stage 4 vampires and transformed werewolves as well. Bring it all on I say!
Now, don't you feel a little silly?

Real Dragons in ESO, which never happened and which was confirmed by ZoS to never happen. And undead chilling in all major towns and social hubs.
Glad I'm not the only one that sees this. I mean eso has been playing fast and loose with the lore since inception, but this is truly jumping the shark and disregarding all lore entirely.
Lore...lore... Oh, come on! ZOS can make another lorebook which will talk about dragons and this will become a new lore. It's a game and not a real history.
Bring it on! All this stuff sounds too fun.
And this is exactly how cows and whales would comment. Which just confirms my original theory, that you would be very pleased by all of this.
Lul, sorry, I'm not very milkable actually when it comes to games xD
I just realize that lore is a one or couple guys' fantasy and anything can happen in the imaginary world.
Well, this "one or couple guys" fantasy as you call it is over 25 years in the making, and yes very "historical" in content.
You obviously don't understand the Elder Scrolls universe, so here is a little history lesson TES style......

Lets please necro all the TONS of threads of how Dragons ARE NOT seen in this time line. Dragons, and only one won't be seen for 300 years and their return wont happen for 900 years...

✭✭✭✭✭When I got Morrowind, I created warden.
I didn't like warden, but I liked character. She was nice. After Summerset - with no new class there - I deleted and recreated her as sorc.
She loves all necromantic things. She has two skeletal pets and undead horse. She has all craft 50, except jewellery (~40), and just few days ago she finally reached 50 lvl...
DAMN.
- PC EU, @Enemoriana. Ru
- My wishlist: crown crates, Lucky Cat Landing, atronach/crow/factotum merchant.
- Houses: The Erstwhile Sanctuary. Everybody is welcomed! Here is video.
- Luxury furniture is displayed in Forsaken Stronghold. Decorator default. Not luxury, but similar or close looking items marked with jester banners. Closed until ESO+ will be available again for Russia: without doubled limits there is not enough space.
- Two years with no ESO+ available. Eternal thanks to people who gifted music boxes, my everlasting ESO passion!
