Comment by overneatheDamn. Obviously Blizzard are deleting Necromancer next season. I personally can't function properly if I don't get at least one change, to one aspect of the gear for my class.Comment by PsychoSe7eNFOOK BL1ZZT4RD for killing my fave D2 class.Comment by SilverDragon234How unusual. Those changes on the selected items is a bit strange... yet rare blessing.Comment by BelucardAbsolutely not surprised by the lack of a comprehensive rework of Necromancer from scratch.

The class is so nerfed it's barely playable at times without resorting to cheese builds (when they work), and it has been kinda obvious that Blizzard loathes pet-based classes and builds. Hell, it's already a miracle that Hydra Sorcerer is not nerfed into the ground, though at least those are technically summons.

I guess I'll have to stick to Last Epoch if I want a satisfying pet-based class :/
