shadow vortex, does it help
 
does this spell really improve killing a mob, if you’re utilizing pets?
pls advise, to a game mechanics noob

Pretty much a useless spell for a Necro. If the mob is feared and snared you don't need it. If the mob is not feared and snared, you're just going to pull agro with it. Save the mana for lifetaps.

BiG SiP 12-06-2020 03:37 PM

so it does nothing if you’re fear kiting with pets?
doh

Sk spell or bone knight spell.

Your bread and butter for getting agro as a SK

for a necro...i wouldn't depend on it

it lowers the mob's AC but other than that it does no damage

sometimes its helpful for pulling

does it benefit a group that is meleeing mobs
like does it do something tangible besides aggro
does lowering mobs AC (do) something?

Lowering a mobs AC is effectively the same as raising your ATK. Both increases average melee damage over time.

I wouldn't pop it on a mob (if you are a necro), it generates a lot of aggro

its kinda of a useless spell in my opinion

Along side disease cloud, it's a spell that SKs use in order to generate aggro

so pets beating on a vortex’d mob would HIT it harder or more?

yes but it isn't mana efficient
