Necromancer testing

Just curious for others who tried in pts....I feel the necromancer is a bit weak. Feels weird with how weak they made the warden they are making the same mistakes again.

Curries what others thought who tried on the pts. Plus I also felt the main spammaple of the sythe skill was really really underperforming (really bad to as stamina morph for pve, brawler is better)

    The main spammable isn't the sythe, that is the percentage based heal for tanks, it is the skull toss.

    Problem with warden was more lack of group utilitiy then anything else and wardens got that in spades.

    I would not recommend testing dps at the moment on PTS, since there are quite some bugs making dummy parses impossible to compare (stacking of the engulfing buff and 100% crit rate on many pet abilities).

    Necros spammable is indeed the skull throwing skill, which gets enhanced by using other necro skills. The scythes damage shouldnt be that bad tough, since its scaling with mag or stam, only the heal is based on health. Still its an aoe ability and therefore does less damage than a single target spell.

    I would not say, that necro is weak in anyway. Damage numbers found so far were pretty high thanks to passives granting up to 100% crit chance during executes, increased dot damage done and extremely nice sustain with one passive providing 300 mag and stam regen.

    Warden isn't weak. It just has to be used correctly. Same applies for all classes. Sure, a DK tank might have an advantage over a Warden one but that doesn't mean that the Warden tank is inviable.

    At the moment Necro is outparsing every other class by a wide margin. Once they fix the crit bug, we shall see how they do.

    Necros get 100% crit chance in execute, and the skull is the spammable NOT the scythe. sounds like you were doing some stuff wrong, currently necro is overtuned.

    It's online. Just made a 78K Stamina DD using Innate and Green Pact LOL Necro is going to replace all classes, except maybe Wardens in PVP becuase you know...Perma+S2W+SA. Now mix in Major Vulnerability from Necro Ult and Resurrection from Necro Healer and you have a 3man group that can kill 24 man zerg. LMAO it's a joke...

    LOL. No is not. At least the Stamina one, is the worse class to play solo if using "meta" build like the one made by Alcast.
    All other "meta builds" can even solo a normal dungeon like BC1. Necro cannot.

    And yeah talking from experience. Even my worst DPS 2h Stamina Sorc, can easily solo nBC1 without much trouble.
    Yet the Sta Necro cannot, struggling to go through the bosses.

    So ignore the dummy testing and get it to run solo a dungeon. :)
