Cyrin.1035 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 The only profession without a one-handed sword. It must be done. I can think of no better, more suitable weapon to add to the class and there are so many skills and abilities that could come from a Necro Sword.

Dadnir.5038 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Please give us a quiet e-spec that don't make wave in PvP against other players and perform well in high end PvE in the next expansion... Personnally I'm rooting for Off-Hand axe so that we can have another meaningless "axe skills do x% more damage against weakened foes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lahmia.2193 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 What kind of weapon would it be though? Condi melee weapon is something we are missing but that would mean another condi heavy spec, which would make 3/3 for necro elite specs. Something PvP orientated maybe?

vicious.5683 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 We don't have an off-hand power oriented weapon. And pls don't say focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekretaal.6485 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 If the Reaper borrowed thematically from Warrior with greatsword, and the Scourge borrowed from Engineer with F keys and Turrets, I wonder if we cant get a spec that borrows thematically with Mesmer (or even ranger) and summons weak minions on weapon skills. How about "Profession mechanic: skills that would produce life force produce jagged horrors instead. F keys are F1 minion bomb F2 Poison bomb F3 Fear Bomb F4 Block" The only long time our damage was competitive in pvE was with Lich form minions and PvP didn't/cannot complain about those since they just aren't able to hit players that move (minion attacks root the minion in place). What about Longbow? Old Final Fantasy games have a Black mage with a longbow archetype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaya.2760 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I'd say mainhand focus, with cantrips and call it voodoo priest - could be minion- or condi-based. But yeah, it would be another condispec and we would still have no melee-condi weapon. So i don't think it's a real possibility but i would love it ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Final Fantasy games have a Black mage with a longbow archetype. Scourge was more thematically like Mesmer in that its F skills all trigger off a thing you summon (and yourself).

Laken.4056 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 This idea didn't go so well for weaver ATM. Something tells me if a necro got a sword then they would *again* be gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanthun.7251 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I'm still rooting for a longbow, and a necro specialization to be called the "screamer." Kind sad reaper got shouts, because it would of been perfect... just imagining a squad full of necros running around LA literally screaming as their attacks. That'd be great.

Arzurag.7506 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I personally don´t care about what weapon we´ll get next. But all I hope for is that we get a weapon with at least 1 mobility-skill, a dash, a jump, a leap, something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZyniX.3589 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I'll settle for a decent dps spec that doesn't get nerfed into the ground a few weeks after it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicious.5683 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 You know what's sad about this thread? We just got a new spec, new weapon and mechanic, but it ended up being so lame, we are already pinning our hopes on the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, i expected it turning out to be that way when I first heard that we get rid of shroud and the torch as our elite-spec-weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias.8632 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 No, next expansion, necromancer gets mainhand pistol, your 3 new attacks each shoot yourself in the head and kills you. No downstate, just instant death. Also this isn't some kind of weird mechanic, there's no benefit, it just kills you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
