Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Lakov_Sanite on May 29, 2008, 01:15:00 PM solo? my necro sucks. I die so much I have permanent footprints on my back.
in a group though? I have 6-8 pets out all doing different things and trashing mobs. Their dps is so high that i literally cant cast more than a couple spells without pulling aggro, so it's lots of fun. edit to say the screenshots could be taken at higher settings, my pets look even better than that......except the bomb....it's hard to make a floating pulsing testicle with flies ever look good Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Mrbloodworth on May 29, 2008, 01:17:58 PM solo? my necro sucks.

They are a group oriented support class definitely. Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Pennilenko on June 04, 2008, 11:28:03 AM solo? my necro sucks.

But im curious is there anything i can do at 12ish to avoid dying to every 2 pull i accidently stumble upon. Necromancer by the way hehe. Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: schild on June 04, 2008, 11:31:36 AM I die all the time with my necro. All. The. Time.
Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Pennilenko on June 04, 2008, 11:35:05 AM I die all the time with my necro. All. The. Time. So if i like my necro just go with it ehh? I really really really like the necromancer style. Its just that the dying is discouraging. P.S. My ranger seems a bit more tough, hehe, as in whirling blades of doom tough and so young still sheesh. Love the ability to switch between my ranged set up and my blades. Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: schild on June 04, 2008, 11:36:26 AM Not really. I would just outright stop playing Necro.
Oh, wait, I did. :oh_i_see: I've leveled most of the classes up past 10 now cept the tanks, Necro was a death magnet comparatively. I truly badly want to play a necro, it's theoretically a good toon. Right now it's just poopy. Keep it, roll another character. Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Pennilenko on June 04, 2008, 11:38:31 AM Not really.

Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Mrbloodworth on June 04, 2008, 12:01:42 PM Are you guys just standing around nuking? Because that would be my first piece of advice, don't do that. Get in there and stab people. Also, save frenzy and fear for yourself as a "Breather" making ability, i fight, get to a point i need to back off, fire that stuff off (not at the same time) and sit back a moment and replenish. Also, food and drink, use them. Potions also.
I generally have little issue taking on 6 mobs at a time 2 levels higher than me. Its a challenge, but not imposable. Also, i think its gilded bones, and..uh the other one thats a group buff shield, make sure they are up always. It is easy to notice they are not...you start dieing quickly. As far as pet set ups, i normality have two corrupter's, and 1-2 others of my choosing...i also have a good chunk of my feats in the pet management tree, and the rest in the generally category, specifically into resistances to melee. Also, KEEP ROLLING in combat, don't stop, you technically get more powerful the more you engage in combat, gather parasi, and frozen hates, and keep moving and fighting. Currently at 35, and i did most of it solo. Let me know what your having issues with, i may have more advice. EIDT: also, Tap unlife + corrupter's = you live. You can use per pet out, so 4 pets = 20 x4 per second healing. Title: Re: Necromancer Pet Screenshots Post by: Lakov_Sanite on June 04, 2008, 12:27:01 PM Are you guys just standing around nuking?
