If you're getting killed by necro minions, you deserve it. AOE and literally the tiniest bit of kiting/LOS and you're clear. Then cleanse and slap that necro for trying to ez mode you.

It has nothing to do to the main subject, please create a new topic or discuss where you should, I came here to see the suggestion about build diversity regarding amulets and not a childish discussion between 2 players, on a completely different matter. Wait, why am I talking to you? Your opinion is of no consequence to me in the slightest. I can't block you, but I can willfully ignore anything you have to say from this point. Toodles.

Yeah, talking about balancing items in a thread about balancing items, RESPONDING to another person who mentions balancing said item in said thread about balancing items is TOTALLY off-topic. Please learn to read before trying to be a minimod. They'll never pick you otherwise. You are the exact reason I want a block feature on these forums.

Got it. I play a very active style, actually using my minion's active abilities. I'm sorry you know so little about the game that you think MM is autopilot. I could teach you to be better if you'd like. > > I'm just going to stop responding to you, as you have no interest in hearing anything other than SpEeD RoOnE BiG bAd. Enjoy your echo chamber, bud.

But if they re-do Necros with added speed in their specs, everyone will just complain that we took away the Necro's one big weakness, and now they can just throw on Carrion and nuke at will. Also, I main a minion mancer with no speed rune. So... yeah.

I think what you meant is that YOU don't want to deal with anyone who can outrun you when you chose not to use those runes. > > Nah, you're forcing down your assumption to me. Speed Runes grants free damage avoidance to almost every single melee attacks in the game by merely holding W away from someone for an undefined amount of time. I'm able to accept that they're toxic and not properly tuned to exist as they are right now, I know this because I "USED" them many times before. 50 or even 40 percent increase is way more reasonable than it's current state outpacing every single utility in the game but Superspeed itself. > > Having something accessible by everyone doesn't mean that it's balanced, in fact that's like saying that everyone should just play the strongest build in the game and never look anywhere else. It's feature being this strong AND exclusive is actually the problem. Necro has some of the worst mobility in the game and you wanna kneecap them further because you can't just face-tank them without using the rune. Got it.
