Hi servants of grenth!

Some friends saw the introspective polls at thief and ranger subforum and recreated them for engineer and necro. We thought it would be great to see how necro players see their class right now.
So here is the poll for necro:

If you have any suggestions for additional questions feel free to let me know.

Interesting results, mostly what I suspected, but a few things that struck me as odd.

1. People are much happier with DS than I thought they would be… I guess I don’t see the draw as a condition user.

2. People vastly overestimate their PvP skills. Sorry but you are not winning 50/50 fights against an ele, lol. Most of them are completely immune to necros.

Would’ve like an “I am indifferent” option for lingering curse (because I truly don’t care )
Some of the question are hard to answer because :
- Sometime our relationship with certain of our mechanisms are more a love/hate one than just I dislike or I like.
- The necromancer’s specificities are strong in PvP and not better than garbage in PvE.

No core profession should be balanced around an optional elite specialization.

Nearly all my fights with Ele’s end when someone else comes to +1 a fight. I’ve done a fair share of duels against Ele’s in private matches and they pretty much are all 5-10 minute fights that end in truces. I’d say that’s 50/50, and I don’t see why it would be impossible for other people to experience the same thing.

1v1 it’s closer to 50/50 but a good Ele still has the edge of they are smart enough to keep up pressure. In tpvp it’s much easier to +1 a Necromancer than an Ele, and are generally more useful. I’d still say Ele are a bit more on the hard side of things when given real PvP situations and good players. Seems to me the lower in skill tiers you go, the more it favors Necro, and the higher you go the more it edges toward Ele (from my experiences and observations).

Good job

I just think this pol miss 1 question:
Is necromancer your main char? or How often do you play necro.
Ofc most of players that answer the pol are main necro, but it may change votes ^^.

It would be great to have a ALL classes chart to see if you can fin dthe same feeling on the same point in several classes.

I think you are putting more into the question than is necessary. The question is simply “how do you fare.” I fare decently well with my build. If we are asking the efficacy versus Ele’s in team fights, that’s an entirely different question. In sPvP it is very situational as to whether or not I can force an Ele off a point long enough to neutralize it or turn it to my side, some spots they have an advantage and others I have an advantage – still 50/50 for me.

If you want to see how I do, I fought Toker on his stream while he was playing Ele. I tried recording myself but my frames drop to 15-20.

Alright meow, where were we?

They could like totally fix burning. Its blatently op since the stacking change to it. Would ele even still be considered a master class with no need to even take any other like they are right now if they weren’t decent at everything and putting out a ton of burning dmg with a cele amulet. Maybe the new warrior spec will open some eyes.
