Necro is gimped compared to live. Why? How can a class go from dominate on live server to gimp on R99? Is that classic?

It was mentioned on the first page. Melee hits way to hard and DD spells land to easily. Two big buffs that help every class besides shaman/necro.

Also people complain about the life drains. Not sure if they are right or not but people say the drains may have been reduced in damage for PvP but the healing component stayed the same. Also, do drains heal when they hit runes and did they on live?

Nirgon the expert but I'm pretty sure the heal did full amounts even though the damage was PVP modified. That change alone here would make necros a lot tougher. Don't think they ever healed when hitting a rune though.

Since they were overpowered on live getting the tap to at least heal like it should would be enough.

The issue with necros getting YT isn't going to be fixed unless DoTs cause YT regardless of zoning. This isn't a huge problem unless you care about the attention or player made leaderboards. For purposes of PvE and zone control they still do well.

I agree it doesn't matter if you're trying to take over a zone or win a mob, etc, but everyone likes to see their name in lights sometimes ya know? Playing a shaman its even worse, I can't even drop a trucidation occasionally for a KS.
