Default The No Necros in Sebilis game.

inb4 "Just go to Howling Stones, bro."

What is the logic behind necros being so notoriously unwelcome in Sebilis groups? We bring a lot of utility, my doods. You don't NEED to have the perfect group of tank, cleric, torpor shaman, monk, rogue, enchanter in order to do King or any of the other camps save for, possibly, CE.



Sincerely,
Neph.

The only class you need for CE is Rogue.

I've never heard anyone reject Necros

Why drive 75MPH when you can drive 55MPH in the slow lane?

Getting groups as a necromancer can be oddly frustrating, I agree whole heatedly.

1) People dont understand how powerful necromancers are

2) There are a lot of bad necromancers who only solo and are shit in groups

3) Not part of the min/max continuum that exists on P99

4) Specifically for King, people only invite their friends

5) LulzSect is a bald drug addict

True for me.

I never did big value cash camps unless it was a group of people I knew who would EC the profits and split amongst the group.

Definitely No Wizards.

The rest aren't that bad.

Mages are also the most welcome out of that bunch.

Which is stupid. Mage pets from 57 earth and up do more flat out damage than most melees. Once you factor in DS damage and direct nukes, very few classes (and even then it requires a good gear set) can compete with mages for either sustained or burst dps.

Yeah watching necros complain about not getting groups when my alt is a wiz is just adorable.

I chalk it up to 90% of this server having no idea how any of the classes in the game work except warrior, rogue, cleric, and enchanter. If you have a perfect 6 man group already then yeah I get it, but I'll see groups begging for a chanter or bard CC while my wiz is lfg and I have to wonder if they know what root is. I've also had necros not know they can mez undead, so I guess it goes both ways - a lot of players don't even know how to play their OWN class, let alone what other classes are capable of.

Actually, Necro can mez all type, not just undead. They can only lull undead (calm the dead/rest the dead) though this one crit fails quite often and can be a gamble. Give yourself space to FD.
