Ok here goes, spells..

Direct Lifetap seem to still working, unresist, BUT it isn't lifetaping full effect.. say if I have 1000 out of 1400 hp, trying to cast Deflux (330 lifetap).. it gives me 86 hp.

Lifetap-Over-Time, they are being resisted often with latest patch, i dont know if it was intented but they were unresistable on live, i used to play 56 gnome necro on live, i had 0 (zero) resist on lifetap-over-time spells. (Bond of Death is one of this line)

Splurt spell, same as Lifetap-over-time but "hard to resist"

k, faction.. omg...

Please please please please boost faction raise on big raid mobs... I took 2 tov raid, 1 big ww dragon killing, and hours of killing wyrm in gd (more than 10 hr), im still scowl to giant. Im starting to think bout stop factioning for tov/kael armor quest since getting armor upgrade in raid is faster than this lame faction speed.

and other stuff thats not right, caster taunt...

I dont know how you want necro to be designed for on WR, last time i asked during raid "what should i be doing?", you said "DPS dealing", ok thats fine, but im not doing alot dps due to massive taunt on dots, its 2x or 3x more than eqlive, i could steal aggro with just splurt, bond of death, and pyre of malath after warrior says 'engage!'
 
.. k faction again.. I understand your idea about faction, but the thing is merit raid pretty much killed my faction..

i came back to WR, i had dubious to both dragon and giant (mmm reset), i knew there was armor quest in ToV, i didnt know giant has quest armor to. I started out killing giants. Dragon faction reached to around apprev, tov merit raid came up, i had to show up, dragon faction went straight down to bottom in just 10 kills or so... someone told me theres armor quest in kael (at this point, both giant and dragon scowl), so i decided to go kill wyrms in gd for few hours, another tov raid came up, i went, mini-raid on mass ww dragon, i went, then more hours effort into killing gd wyrms, still scowl to giant..

question is, is it worth doing faction to just to get minor upgrade armor?

i guess not, im bout to go destroy 6 different Torn Enchanted Silk armor and give away all my quest gems. please make change to faction to look like worth effort to do quest armor. my suggestion is make raid mob (such as dragons in ww / tov, unkillable solo) to give bigger faction hit.
 
Well, I don't know, nor care, about the faction issue. I got my Dragon faction all through soloing, then ruined both factions in raids when I didn't need them anymore.

Now, sit down, and listen to how to properly own the fuck out of a raid mob without drawing aggro.

When the tank engages, not when he calls for assist, is when you cast Splurt. It's low aggro until the damage ramps up near the end.

Let that run until assist is called, and this is where you throw your next DoT (either EBolt or Bond/Vexing). Do not, under any circumstances, cast Funeral Pyre as soon as assist is called.

Funeral Pyre you stack when the mob hits 90%. I usually hit pet attack and Funeral Pyre at the same time.

From then on, use some common goddamn sense. Spread your taps and DoTs out, don't throw them all at once unless you're ready to frantically hit Harmshield and/or Feign.
 
today, someone aggroed Herald giant (in sleeper) on me, giant went max bottom... i give up factioning...

sean, i do wait for assist then pet attack / pyro, i still gets aggro (appears that i get aggro when MT dies)

Fuck the pet. Use Fd to manage agro....faction, fuck the faction.

Speaking as a player and not a GM, I don't bother with faction either. I don't think anyone does.
 
different faction issue.. its really easy to fix your erudin faction by killing kobolds in the warrens, but there are no low level options (or really any I know of) for fixing your thurg faction.. perhaps killing rogue dwarves in GD could give good thurg faction?
 
yeah. wipe the rogue dwarf camps over and over, and start collecting/turning in the heads as soon as you are "allowed" into the city. i was evil to start but it moved me to ally status. should have same effect on the goodies trying to get in (saying "should" only cuz i've never actually done it)
