Well as a guy thats played a necro for a main for the past year and a half i am saddened to not really be able to do much offensive wise to a 1 mob raid target. But before the nerf, necros were able to do really good dps.. esp w a hoop. But I never knew that about lyunga treats. Good read. I cant bitch much about the all around lifetap nerf too much.. If its classic its classic. But damn it sucks!

obviously the classic change was game breaking and needs a classic fix.

As someone who raided a fair bit as a necro during kunark & velious all I can say is I hope you all have as much fun being a mana battery as I did ~~~~~

No his point was that the cry used to be 'because it wasn't classic" or 'it was classic'. That Nilbog was adamant about things being exactly classic. Now it isn't that it is 'because it was unbalancing in my opinion." I agree with Nilbog because some things are unbalancing here because of the knowledge out there gleaned legitimately and not legitimately but the op has a valid argument. It may be as close to classic as one can get but once you start changing things (rightly so or not) you can no longer call it that.

When can we expect the Midnight Mallet nerf? This is obviously being abused too. Take a trip down to inny swamp and check out all the corpses. I had always thought what Treats said. I don't remember that mob always being up. Why dont we start by fixing that.

There are better ways to fix the hoop than nerfing necros IMO.

I have never clicked a hoop or played a necro on this server.

idk, the change they made to necro's is supposedly classic, yet it still seems like dragons have crazy resists or something.

all i know, very very few necro taps land on any raid target. Pretty sad when draco resists your taps lol.

As far as Lynuga, no shit :P So the bug with her is reported yesterday.. in a rants and flames post. (Thanks Treats) That is beyond irritating, but there's not too much we can do about it now. A part of me is thinking of removing every Ivandyr's hoop, midnight mallet, and brutechopper from existence, fixing the spawn, and returning to regular scheduled programming :P

Necros aren't custom 'nerfed'. This is era specific to what they should be. The people arguing that are misinformed of the situation. Lifetaps went from completely unresistable to a resist mod, which is correct.

Here's some reading.

mixed views. some say unresistable some say 100% resistable.
Some say necros can't solo in dungeons (which made me laugh).

suppose it doesn't really matter tho. I'll just keep spamming the hell out of Twitch and my poison spell.
