This thread is about Corrupt Boon being potentially OP. This is not about the Necro class being OP, and people trying to turn this into that might as well not post. He never calls the class OP and in fact says that they need help. One aspect of a class can be OP even if the class as a whole is completely dog.

The fact that it’s on necro does matter though. Even if two skills had the exact same effects when looked at alone, they’d be different on different professions because of how well they synergize with other skills, traits, and mechanics on that professions. So while “Necro is UP so it’s ok for this to be OP” would be a bad arguement, you still can’t completely isolate the skill from the rest of the profession when looking at it.

Yes when factoring in whether the skill is OP you have to take into consideration the class itself. Apples do not compare to Oranges after all. That however is not what I was talking about. My post was about how people are butchering the actual topic, which is Corrupt Boon not the Necromancer class. Again one aspect of a class can be OP even if the class itself is not. This is why balancing any game is tricky.

For the record I don’t see a problem with the skill. But I am not going to butcher the topic just because I do not agree.
