    My speculations:
    - Necromancer will be bis for healing & tanking (better than templar & dk). Most likely it will have a "sap tank" playstyle + pets (idk, maybe it is a part of a
    greater scheme hence ZOS was slowly killing nb sap tanks over the years).
    - In pvp it will be more than OP - it will be simply broken as they stated on the stream that necromancer will get stronger the more corpses are around. Sounds like a perfect ball group zerg class to me.

    Ball group raising corpses.. like on top of player amount on some emp keep fight, 100 skeletons running around.. the lag might get real. :scream:

    It will be totally OP. Or the weakest class ever. Or perfectly balanced.

    Either way it's all part of a grand conspiracy to screw the players over. It always is.

    Judging how the warden was on release, it won't be broken or OP.

    I voted yes because this is the ESO community and even if it was the most balanced perfection ZOS ever made someone would say it's broken. :trollface:

    Mods need to step up their game and delete posts like this. It is getting boring. Everything is OP and everything is too underpowered and ZOS has orchestrated it ALL to make you buy more crates.

    I don't care how strong or weak the community will think necro is. I will play it because I want to.

    Probably. My chief concern would be the Necro's reliance on pets, and pet pathing problems. I can't think of a single MMO that did Necromancers (or any pet class) very well. In Age of Conan all it took to be safe from a Necro was to jump on any tiny rock, the pets would just do a musical-chairs dance around the rock, and not touch you. In EVE, by the time your heavy drones (pets) got to target, either you or the target would likely be dead. In WoW all pet classes suffer from this terribly. In PvE, a hunter would take a shortcut without dismissing the pet in a dungeon, the pet would take a scenic route, and aggro and bring with it all the mobs from here to Mordor, which inevitably got everybody killed. In PvP, player jumping on and off the stairs would force the pet to run all the way around, an 8-12 second trip, during which it did zero damage. I don't think things will be much different in ESO in this regard. Pets + MMOs, especially in PvP, have never worked in my experience.

    I believe it will become the new Warden. This time I will level up a toon in PTS and see if there is a good endgame dps build. The warden do not have much dps options after reaching lvl 50 and leveling all skills and thus I felt very limited and tried my best to improve it combining with vanilla skills. Next patches made him much worse.

    i disslike these kinds of threads to be honest - yes there will be an iteration period as with anything new - that is to be expected...what do you want? have no innovation anymore? have no new classes anymore? I vastly prefer having to iterate and getting new classes and skill lines than the other way around...every new skill line and class is exciting to me and enkindles my passion for the game again
