I have play necro for 2 years, and I agree with everybody who dislikes necro's new skills. Last year, I fought high amped rangers and high amped BDs with my low amped necro. I love when they caught on Nightmare 5/5, then used poison on them. Kept some range from them, then casting shield and heal. Not too scared for Hamstrings and Blessings, coz Nightmare is good skill.
I proud by necros +3 energy regen and low cost energy on healing, made me could cast more nightmare, more shield, more heal. While enemy sleeping and couldn't regen anything, I kept my health high.
But now, I can't do it anymore. Even with updating gears, amplifying and enchanting, I can't find any strategy to beat other classes, except low lvl and some noob players ofc. Other classes got at least 2 stuns/disable skills that improved their strategy to beat necro.
All healer classes at elf got buff on their heal (druid secret link and priest aura), they can heal twice, or higher than necro with same amp on gears. While necro confuse to manage their health with their health cost, other healer classes can raise their health as high as possible! Wow, I envy other class so much now... Coz I just got new expert skills, which I can't compare to other healers skills, even shaman which at same side as necro.
Still, I love my necro coz it's a symbol of sacrify, and ofc all ppl at MCs side always need this class . And keep wishing better future for all necros. Hope someday necros day will be back.
