The data is going to be skewed beyond usability. If necros rise up it will be just as much if not more due to people actually playing them post changes. Plus it just tracks killshots anyway not who is doing better in PVP, and necros are still dealing with the DoT not counting for YT shit.

Kronar was ranked very high on Sullon facing the same challenges as player's here. I'm not looking for definitive empirical data used to accurately gauge class balance. But even one necro getting a fairly descent rank would show things have changed.

Of course not every class was ranked high on live, but i can say on live there was at least 1-2 individuals that made a class that was thought of to be BAD or HARD in pvp, work.

There were enough bad players on live that any class should have been viable. Things are different on an emulator 15 years later.

Well, there was lifeburn too for the SZ leaderboard. But a lot of the top pvpers on RZ like Nilear, Nalear, Zelnik, Lugoj, Zyrino etc were necros.

The changes will hopefully make necros at least as playable as they were on live, where they were considered to be a very good PVP class.

Deck is just stacked against them here the way it is now. Broken AC, huge melee hitbox, fucked up DoTs, pets are shit (can't reduce delay w/ weapons, can't get weapons back killing pet) and don't zone with you (yes I realize this is classic). Resists hosed so even a druid can outdamage your taps, etc.

Patch addresses a good number of those at least.
