I’ll grant that it is cool of QT to provide data to assist some of us. But here’s is the problem: it comes off as them saying that their way is the only way, and far too many people take their pronouncement as gospel, and it is extremely annoying. It’s gotten to the point where I get kicked from 3-4 groups before I’m finally allowed into a fractal run. Why is that? I’ll tell you: People see the pronouncement that “Necromancers are low dps in raids” and assume they are bad at everything. THIS IS NOT TRUE!!! Granted, necromancer don’t do the most damage in the game, but we can MORE than hold our own in raids, fractals etc.
I’m not saying that the necromancer is perfect, far from it. It needs a few tweeks and buffs on both condi and power to bring it up to par, and it wouldn’t be hard to do, but that’s another post.
The point I’m making is that while necromancer don’t to the best damage (for now), we are far from useless in pvp, wvw fractals and raids. That said, even IF I accept that QT intentions are good and well-meaning, they don’t help anyone when they create a situation where only certain classes are good enough for x situation and all others (read: Necro and Rev) stay home.
I love my necromancer!! In spite of all the Anti-necro hate and people getting antsy over QT most recent “Grand Pronouncement” (inject lethal dosage of sarcasm) concerning Necromancers, I find that I can still hold my own in everything from fractal, to raids to pvp. I don’t let the pronouncements of the mouth-breathing elitists get me down.
BTW I’ve been playing necromancer since GW1 and I will not give up on them. Necromancers are awesome in GW2, yeah, some work is needed, but it’s not all doom and gloom.
Ahhh QT, the bane of my existence.
I’d mention what I truly feel about them but I’m certain I’d violate several rules of conduct, so let’s just say I’ll simply agree to disagree.
That said, keep in mind that they base all their data off of an immobile punching bag that doesn’t hit back, no mechanics to maneuver around etc. What happens in a non-hostile vacuum is NOT what happens in a real situation. So, my Brothers and Sisters of Necromancy, I offer this advice: Ignore QT’s pronouncements. I did. I raid with my necromancer, and I hold my own. Don’t let the Anti-Necro sentiment of QT affect your game. If you can pull your weight then raid on.
tl:dr: Ignore the pronouncements of QT, do what you do best!
