i'll just attribute this to bad AI. It's a shame...necro has been my class of choice since Diablo |

Hey =) I had a Necro as well I played from 1-13, But it was exactly the same for me also, there appears to be no way at all for the minions to hold any sort of aggro. Either we are both doing something wrong or that's just the way they intended Necro's to be. All I can say is I have never died so much from 1-13 ever :P |

yeah...necros are usually DoT machines, with little to no defense. Thats why we have minions. I don't understand why any company would have mobs ignore the minions with a necro class. Every other mmo out there, the necro/summoner never really comes into direct contact with the mobs unless they out dps the mob vs minion damage, or agro first. Unless this is just an AI problem, which can be rectified |

Hit N and check your Feats. You have to spend Feat Points to get your pets to pull agro. They are working as designed. |

when you enrage ur minion nps attack him, i tried necro.. he did kinda more dmg than my 13 lvl guardian at 5 lvl :< oh did i saw in every pvp mini game i had kinda most deaths. guardians are such crap. i sure hope they increase a lot with plate.. but there is no such thing as raw armor. so i dunno.. sometimes i would die to single assasin just in stun.. just like good old wow.. but rogue there atleast take more than 5s to kill warrior :< |

Originally posted by miagisan Actually I would attibute it to good AI... Kill the necro kill the pets right? If I was fighting a necro it would be pretty stupid to sit attacking the pets. |

Originally posted by ethionactually no...this would either be terrible AI or poor game design/class design. Necros are fragile, they are not tanks or dps machines. If thats the case then why have the class at all....give him some more dps and call it demonologist.....oh wait.... Unless you of course think every other game which has a necro/summoning class out there has it wrong. |
