Two days left before we die.
You can’t tell yet, we didn’t test the patch until now. And in the streams it looked like necromancers got pretty strong in PvP.
Yes because their opponents weren’t trying or were 11k HP guards… Keep looking around in the recent threads, you will find numerous isntances of “warrior player destroyed necro without even trying” “Engi deleted necro” “Ranger achieves stalemate with necro…without using a single utility”, and more. Pretty much all posts mentioning Necros doing good have “but their opponents ran bad/preset builds” or “opponents played bad” additions.
Well I didn’t see many duels but there were several with a signet necromancer and an engineer who didn’t run a premade or bad build. The necromancer hard countered the engineer completely.
And if the meta in PvP is still based on conditions … I can be wrong but isn’t necromancers condition transfer ability stronger than ever before?
From today necromancers die for their own magic, but in HoT they rise from the dead as Reapers.
