    sorry guys but thats how it is. necromancer in eso is nothing more than a cheap copy paste of the d2 and d3 necromancer but with 10% of the skills

    You can say that for every game, because I mean necromancers do the same thing in almost every game.

    But this is also the fact why people love them so much, because they kind of know what they can expect.

    Although every game is a bit different, so it's for sure that the ESO necromancer will not be the same as the D2/D3 necromancer, but hey: You love it or you better don't buy Elsweyr. Easy as it is.

    trust me i am as excited as anyone finally something i canr elate to, been playing the father of all MMO for 20 years so...
    but so far judging from everything ive seen and all the cash grabs that bethesda and zenimax have been doing so far is making me fell like this is a russian roulette with 5 shells in....
    also all the skills they've shown so far looks more like they copy pasted it it from d2 and d3 my POV. so its another thing that doesn't make me feel comfortable. this one i would rather sit and wait since they will give it for free anyways so....

    not going against that but bethesda claims they are the top of the barrel in mmos.......like i mentionned in another post ... if its only a copy paste from another game, like 90% of the TES franchise, they should have sat this one down and think about their next moves.

    Second, I'm buying two copies of Elsweyr - and I won't be playing necromancers.

    It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too. - Douglas Adams

    There is only so much you can do with a Necromancer before you turn it into just another caster. Necromancers in most games are very similar. I don't see a problem here.

    Yeah, I am down to play a Necro from D3 in ESO. Open world is why. My choice on if I will be Necro depends on the Stamina class morphs, I highly dislike using a Staff, and well, Magicka is only staff and sadly, most class skills follow Magicka. So, we will see.

    Looking forward to a couple of hours starting my first diablo 3 season, will be playing a Necro (on the Switch at least, PC will be witch doc).
    If ESO's necro is anything like D3's, I would seriously consider buying the next chapter then, otherwise I'm not overly optimistic about it.

    You forget to mention other dozens of great games where necromancy existed before d2 and d3.. all of it is pale phew-phew arcade in comparison to necromancy in dungeons&dragons spellbook.
    And is d3 a great example of the game? don't make me laugh i completed it 2 evenings then grinded sets for a while reach some level of nightmare 6,7 got bored to hell and never have a wish to launch it again with it's repetitive gameplay where there is literally 3-4 dangerous effects like those stone traps and rays and that's all.

    Because I have ZERO use for the necromancer class. I've never played them, and I never will. Personal opinion.
