Will be playing with a rogue (dashes and shadowsteps, can get more charges or reduced cooldowns) and barb (leap spam with legendary aspect) friend and I’m not sure how I can even keep up with them when necro gets almost no mobility skill other than Reaper’s Pursuit, 5~15% movement speed for 3 sec only when you do darkness damage. They’ll probably clear the whole map while I zombie in for the loot.
I hope necros can get something like Blood Rush (change Reaper’s Pursuit to something similar to Blood Rush) from D3 that can be somewhat used more often with a legendary aspect or something.

Don’t worry.
They won’t get far, they’ll be waiting for you to kill stuff for them.

necromancers usually gets portrayed as slow and relentless. Will be a solo friendly class due to minions.

I don’t know about mobility but no matter what, I will definitely be playing a summoner. That’s my favorite class ever and I truly hope it is going to be viable.

True but I enjoy playing with my friends and I love bone necros without summons other than a golem. Maybe movement speed bonus on top of the other bonus for not summoning the skeletons would be great.
A Passive would be nice that says: “Gain 5% movespeed for every Summon you have.”
While moving through the Dungeon you would have the max movespeed up at all times, but if your summons start dying to mobs you get slower so you need constant awareness of your summons and how many you have for max move efficiency.

I agree, was playing with barbarian without a mobility ability last beta. I quickly realized I couldn’t keep up with my friends and it was miserable. But atleast I had the choise of adding leap and lunging strike to my build, unlike necromancer.
For sure want to see some mobility option for Necro. Don’t want a repeat of previous games, where everyone else has made it to the objective and are stuck waiting for you to slowly plod over to them.
Also, dungeon bosses and other bosses like butcher completely ignores your summons, taunts don’t work and curses doesn’t work at all so it’ll be nice if it could get something like sorc’s teleport.

Won’t be a problem, their time to kill is like 100x yours. You’ll catch up when the pack has taken chip damage, use your basic skill ‘kill everything visible on screen’, start running to the next encounter while they loot, they over take you reach the next encounter, use their ‘chip damage while we wait for the necro’ abilities, rinse, repeat.

Kinda hard to cry about movement atm when I’m moving 100% of the time in a blood cloud that’s immune to everything and just auto kills everything in my path. A slow but very certain death wave.
Respectfully disagree. Stop wanting every class do everything, certain classes should be more
Mobile just like not every class should have teleport.
