Why Necromancer for Elsweyr?

    "Elsweyr is said to be relatively accommodating to necromancy. The Khajiit are said to show little if any outrage over uncovered graves, and corpses can apparently be purchased in the port of Senchal. Though corpses don't hold up well in the forests, the deserts of Elsweyr preserve corpses for centuries, allowing skilled necromancers to make use of them relatively easily. The way the bodies are buried in the deserts, under only a small cairn of stones, is also ideal for necromancers on the prowl for resources."

    Information of necromancy existed before ZOS decided to add it with Elsweyr.

    Agree with you.

    I do not know what is special about Necromancer class, i see it as any other.

    But since the beginning of the game people have been asking for a Necromancer.

    It's probably something nerd that escapes my understanding.

    You literally get it as part of conjuration in every Elder Scrolls game. That ESO didn't have it until now is mind boggling.

    Because not everything has to come from already established lore. New lore means new interesting concepts and stories. Its not like Elsweyr is foreign to Necromancy anyway

    Check out the Elsweyr section of this book

    I kinda agree to this. While it's cool to have like a monk class, or that necromancy seems a little odd when you talk about khajiits or dragons. But then again, what has the warden has to do with Morrowind, eh? It's most likely because people have been asking for the class, and well... Elsweyr. I mean there's nothing wrong with having Necromancy being included in the Chapter.

    Yeah. I didn't understand the Warden Morrowind thing either. But, again, I don't mind Necromancers coming with Elsweyr I like that they're adding that class. All I was saying is that it felt like a missed opportunity (imagine mixing in a nice story of Martial Arts, or Khajiti spirituality within the Elsweyr storyline as well as giving the "monk" class, for example).

    I didn't understand how they weren't part of it either, other than the fact that they've never been a playable faction in the other ES games. But, that's not a good enough excuse to not have necros in the game. Soon enough we'll be able to play 'em. =)
