Spells: Necromancer Spells

[Daldaen]

That necro forum is pretty good in general. I've heard people complain here about how EoT pet is horrible and non-classic... Everything those forums talk about seem to suggest that EoT was actually very bad in classic. Didn't dual wield, low max hit, etc. The one thing they talk about is how the pet is only usable cause his higher level let him hit more often and whatnot.

Got some good posts on Holgresh elder beads too for Velious:

Also, is this you Potus?

[Potus]

Yup that's me. Emissary of Thule, like the Duck Staff, launched super bugged and got fixed eventually, I want to say around Velious. It *should* quad on this server.

In general all the Kunark pets are a fucking dumpster fire. Necros sucked dick during this period and it's pretty classic that they suck on this server.

Here's some Emissary of Thule shit:

61, Double Attack (random), Bash 40, Kick 40, Dual Wield (auto), Triple Attack, Procs a minor drain life spell (?)

It's not DW'ing on Red because no pets are innately DW'ing on red. Fucking bugged for more than a year [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

on live brah, we're talking classic

[Uton]

thats my point. you want to bring up an "issue" without displaying when the change was made. So I would argue it was made the day after the spell was released, but all you have shown is the "day time" requirement from pre kunark. and some forum discussions from whoever. show me the patch notes

someone is salty,

read Dald's OP....tons of evidence that these spells had a 'night only' requirement

and lore wise this makes sense since necros are not teleporters like wiz/druid

Not every change in EQ has a corresponding patch note. There is plenty of evidence of how the spell worked during the time period being discussed.
