Character must be level 50 and not sub-classed. You get two points to spend.

I may have read it incorrectly, but I think you need all class skill lines maxed as well.

But yeah. I logged in yesterday, allocated my points and went on my merry way.

Correct. The character has to have leveled all 3 skill lines to 50. I don't know that character level itself is required to be at level 50 though, as the patch notes do not state as such.

ok so u get a max of 2 points and can allocate them however u want? Its not another thing to farm?

Yes

They are not to be farmed.. but just imagine if you could receive a third class mastery point from an ultra-hard or very rare event or monster or quest from the game >:3

Nooo.. that would be evil, no one wants that...

.. unless o.o

Would somebody be so kind to post the english class mastery passives for the necromancer?
Their description makes absolutely no sense to me in the german client.

Here they are:

Nothing Wasted - As an abattoir of death, no remnants of life are wasted.

Upgrades rank 2 of Corpse Consumption to also grant a stack of Nothing Wasted for 10 seconds, which increases your Max Health by 2% and Weapon and Spell Damage by 2% per stack, up to 10 times. Stacks decay three at a time instead of all at once.


Malevolent Promise - Death's knell is a familiar song. Share it with your enemies.

Also upgrades rank 2 of Corpse Consumption to mark the closest non-player enemy to you with death's touch for 6 seconds, allowing you to use a corpse consuming ability on them. Consuming or replacing this effect triggers rank 2 of Death Gleaning. This effect can occur once every 2 seconds.


Cycle Unending - The cycle of life and death continues: you will live, others will die.

Upgrades rank 2 of Reusable Parts to grant Cycle Unending for 25 seconds, increasing your damage done by 1% for every 1% Health you have more than your target. The damage bonus caps at 25% (12% against players).


Pound of Flesh - Knock upon death's door and demand your due.

When you take damage you have a 1% chance to heal 2745 Health and restore 5% of your missing Stamina, up to once per second. This chance increases by 1% for every missing Health percent you have and the healing is based off your Max Health.


Veil's Forfeit - Call souls back from an early grave. Only you may grant them release.

While you are in combat, directly healing a target below 50% Health relinquishes them from death's clutches and allows you to use a corpse consuming ability against them within 10 seconds, up to once every second. Consuming or replacing this effect grants the target 2 Ultimate.

Unless you wanted less balance in the game than we already have.

I don’t understand why fans of ESO - which is an MMORPG from an acclaimed RPG franchise - are so averse to… needing to choose things and instead want all the buffs and none of the weaknesses.

The Mastery passives are designed to not be able to get more than two at once. The point is that you can’t get it all. You are supposed to choose and make sacrifices (and Mastery in itself is also a choice because you sacrifice the ability to Subclass to get them).

I agree with you on this one but look at Subclassing. That flies right in the face of having to make risk vs reward choices.

Exactly. I call that “exhibit A.”
(Or let’s face it, we’re probably at like D by now)

Subclassing is controversial because it utterly destroyed balance. People who love it are the ones who feel free and unfettered, so happy to discard the lines they don’t use or care about for things they do. But the people who hate it are screaming THOSE THINGS YOU DON’T LIKE WERE WHAT SORTA BALANCED IT!

Subclassing absolutely should have released in such a way that players needed to make actual choices, not just “it costs double skill points that you have more than you’ll ever need anyway.” It didn’t. And as such, we got a balance catastrophe out of it. If it had been done in such a way that required people to make actual choices - like now Subclassing means giving up Mastery and soon will also mean all Class lines will have a mix of roles like DK’s - then it’s not just a “do this to be OP” button.
