‘Shades of the Nephalem allows Necromancers to add one Legendary Weapon Power into their build which means they’re significantly ahead every other build.’
But any class gets the ‘exclusive 4th Kanai’s Cube Slot’ - so why are Necros ‘significantly ahead every other build’?
Thanks.
Necros have huge universal bonuses which help most of their builds. Other classes don’t have similar benefit.
Well, other classes get extra power for sure, but Necromancers have the most abundant pieces. I think this is about Necromancers’ crowd control sensitive nature, high commit to positioning running the risk of spiraling out of control when they fail to gauge what they inflict upon the masses.
All the other classes have similar “gifts” for this Season; you have your Executioner, Convention of Elements, Flying Dragon, Odyssey’s End, but I think none of them are impactful as Shadowhook or Corroded Fang. To say the least, some of those Legendary powers require you to equip RoRG, or replace a skill in the build if it’s not the specifics; Necromancers have no such qualms about any of their builds.
in their skills?
or in the items which can be put into the cube?
My necro is lvl 70, the highest level i have with another class is 2 or 3.
Trag’Oul’s Corroded Fang Keep Necromancer Core class item

Oh boy, I would never have entertained the idea of going mêlée with a Necro.
Still loads to learn … 
Obviously this one. For example Death Nova builds normally have Funerary Pick and Iron Rose equipped and Bloodtide Blade in the weapon slot of the cube. In the 4th slot they can now put Scythe of the Cycle, a flat 5x multiplier to secondary skills.
Or other builds they can use Trag’Oul’s Corroded Fang, a flat 3x multiplier against cursed enemies that applies to all skills.
Other classes don’t have similar huge widely applicable buffs. They may have some large ones but they generally are very skill specific.
Yep, almost all builds from other classed already use all of the items with big multipliers.
While necro has a lot of weapons with huge damage multiplier, both specific to skills, and general, so that with a normal 3-slot cube, you have to leave out some big weapon multipliers because there isn’t space for it. With the extra slot, you can bring another big weapon multiplier.
Cycle of the scythe gives 400% dmg to secondary skills. That’s a massive buff that no other character class gets as far as I know.
You can play Trag’Ouls DN - it’s effectively a melee build.
Correct.
A couple wizard builds can work deathwish (+325% damage while channeling) into their builds (not tal rasha though), and most will have to make sacrifices to fit it in. Except (LoD and I think DMO) twister builds that already channel anyway, so they can play exactly same build but with a free x4.25 damage. So that’s very much on the level of necros, but twister builds are behind death nova to start with so not really impacting meta…
