I absolutely love the skill effects in this game. Now my mesmer’s wells feel… Less than impactful. What Anet should have done is given us, the consumer, the OPTION to turn the visual noise down, including an option to turn down the visual noise of just other players while keeping our own as normal.
Anet. Please listen to your playerbase and start giving us OPTIONS instead of just gutting visual aspects.
or you play long enough to see yourself come cry on the forums, every single day.
Is this all we are now? Is all we do is to come cry about every change?
Necro has never been a horrible class, has it had short comings? Do some classes have an easier time than us? Sure but its nothing to keep crying about. I haven’t seen as much crying since Call of Duty twelve year olds. My four year old plays a necro, yes you read that right, a four year old. He even pvps and can down people. He may be button mashing as if hes playing Eddie from Tekken but hes still killing people.
If you’d all spend your time theory crafting instead of crying on these forums then we’d actually go some where.
Necromancers are selfish, we aren’t a knight in shining armor, we aren’t going to jump through hordes of enemies to save you, we aren’t here to read you a bed time story. We’d rather you make more death cries so we can hit the enemy in the back and gain all the glory for ourselves. We were not and should never be built for group support. If you want group support then there’s the door to Guardians and Elementalists, go, no one’s stopping you.
The necro is a great class and the reaper a great addition. I’ve played my necro for 3,100 hours over 771 days. I’ve done everything with it, PvE, dungeons, fractals, pvp and primarily WvW ( both zerging and roaming, the later being my forte). If you cant make the necro work, at this point, then the problem isn’t the class, it’s you.
Complaining about people not taking you to dungeons? Obviously you cant play necro or its the kinds of people you want to play with. There will always be elitists who demand cookie-cutter group comps just as much as there’ll be people who don’t care. If you want to play with those people then i’d suggest you reroll because you must have the same mindset, why play a " sub-par" class, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
We as a class have become too closed-minded, we can’t see the forest from the trees, we shoe-horn ourselves into traits and play styles instead of thinking out side the box.
Its either the zerker traits, the spectral traits or the terromancer traits. Anything else is frowned upon and belittled.Have you given the Reaper a chance? Do you not see the potential? Cast aside the delusions of support, we are not built for that, we never will be. Our support is wrecking the enemy, thrusting our daggers, our greatswords into their chests, clawing their eyes out with our axe. Weakening their effectiveness to fight with weakness, chills and blinds. That is our support.
Put aside the support class, become the power house you were meant to be.
Our job is to be a foce of reckoning, applying chill, weakness and vulnerability to all enemies in our wake. Let the guardians, elementalists and warriors protect everyone, let us focus our hate on the enemy.
This post brought to you by a necro who hasn’t lost their spark and these sponsors:
Superior Runes of the Ice
Superior Sigils of ice, hydromancy, peril, frailty and chilling.
Ghost pepper poppers at night.Stiff upper lip my necro friends.
This so much. I love the necro’s selfish nature, it is a class which can absolutely ruin someone’s day. When I am on my necro, the only thing I am aiming to do is destroy things. If I want to support, I have an elementalist and a guardian both specced for just that purpose. The Reaper is going to bring so much to the table and will make us an even deadlier force to be reckoned with. Let others worry about keeping the group supported, we’ll melt our enemies and cripple their ability to fight!
