Necro Downed Fear Hardly Works?
You can be blinded, causing it to miss. Aegis will also block it, which will remove it, making it seem like nothing stopped it.
dodge, blind, aegis, stability….etc. etc. etc. there is alot to account for.
There have been bugs with this skill before, that may or may not have been totally fixed. You’re playing Necro, we have historically had the most bugs and stupid internal interactions of any profession; welcome to the class. Oh, and don’t expect them to get fixed any time soon unless they benefit us.
It’s probably blinds. Probably thieves.
A downed necro is my favourite necro.

Dont even try…
As downed necro you are a free stomp for any decent player. For pvp necros have one of the worst down states. The damage is one of the highest though…
@Sogradde it seems you dont have any idea how buggy necros were and partly still are…
I noticed this many months ago Spazz. I now use my #1 skill and suck some life from them then fear. Works 90% of the time in that rotation.

Engineer takes that role actually. The downed auto attack may not do any worthwhile damage at all, applies random conditions, and can only be increased by 25%. Down state #2 ability is like saying “Hey, you can’t stomp me from over there! Come stand right on top of me, I’ll help you.” And then you just pray you live long enougb to reach your #3 in time which is about the equivalent of guardian #2.
The bright side in all of this though, is we have the option to slot an Elixir R to give us a chance to revive ourselves. Though that is still not excuse for such a crappy downed state.
Can’t speak for other classes but I either pop (as an ele) mist or arcane shield. Avoiding CC isn’t difficult, esp if you know exactly what skill they are going to do and when they will do it.
In this case at least, Necro downed state has been bugged before, including this exact skill. It would not be surprising if the bug returned.
