I don't know how many different ways 5 different people can tell you that this tome is strong and necromancers with this tome are strong in exp groups.
As I posted in my first post, I think its one of the best abilities of the Necromancer. I'm not arguing that its not a great tome, im argueing thats it isen't, I belive the pharse was "Hands down the best Exp tome in the game".
It is very good, dont get me wrong, and its essential for the necro to have, to stand a chance at all to keep doing DPS, cause more often than not, lots of invested mana in dot damage, is lost to mobs dien faster than the dots can tick out
Either way, the general concern here seems to be, that its to good, that it would make the necro to strong.
Fair enough, I'm probably wrong then... When I run the numbers though, I don't see anything that would indicate thats its to OP.
Runic2 in to Affliction Storm.
Cast time, 4.6 + 1 second.
600 initial damage + (12x380)/3 = 2120 base.
Twice the mana as Moon Comet, 21% less damage, same total cast time. Necro can't do it again for an other 15 seconds.
I dunno, it may be to high, but 2120 damage for 1020 mana, doesn't seem like something any class would want to do to often.....
But seems like the general oppinion is not so much "it needs some adjustment, then it would be great", its more like "No, necro's great, dont touch. Just dont even go there".
