Necromancer overpowered

Does the necromancer seem overpowered to anyone else? I’m not complaining but their abilities seem overwhelming to all mobs, elites, and bosses.

In early access I’ve played the rogue There abilities seem underpowered. As I’ve played rogue in OG Diablo. I was looking forward to playing the rouge. Part of me is thinking it just might be the bild I choose. But the build I have is more built for range, but till they unlock combo points and shadow strike and those skills I felt like I was behind and took a bit to level.

But during open bete I’ve been playing necromancer. His abilities Seem overpowered. I’m running him with decompose, my skeletons are reapers to generations corpse and the going with corps explosion.

I did a dungeon with my necromancer and he completed it quicker, and the boss, the wolf alpha boss, it was easy.

With my rogue I died 6 times before I killed that boss.

I’m also the 2nd difficulty with both characters

You can change your skin tone when you create your character. Lore-wise I think they are supposed to be pale and overpowdered, but you can make them a little more toned if you like.

What is a rouge @TrickyZerg?

I played ROGUE last week end and it seems really strong. Maybe you’re doing it wrong?

As for Necro, haven’t tried that yet.

Yeah, they are pretty pale. Definitely overpowdered. Sorry… I couldn’t help myself.

It is strong lower levels and drops off quickly if I remember right.

Rouge and Powder are soooooo 1640s.

Sorry overpowered. And rogue damn auto-correct.

Spamming corpse explosion definitely makes fights easy.

Necro was definitely too strong, have not played with any others but it was pretty easy

Yeah man. I hated rolling my necro through so many powders and rouges.

Jokes aside. Corpse explosion goes brrrr

Yeah I’m doing a simple Decompose, Blight, passive skele buff w/5 summoned, and corpse explosion and it seems great so far.

Feels like the skeletons should have way less HP and are way too tanky.

You only have to resurrect them once it seems.

No, because we havent even began to scale, have barely played any of the game, and its only wt2.

Its too early to tell.

But, keep going.

It is true, this game is still in beta.

Nothing is final till the game officially comes out in 3ish months. Which this is the whole point of the beta, find bugs and balance abilities.

I totally agree, I’ve played both Sorc, Barb and Necro to lvl 25 and Necro is way easier, corpse explosion needs a nerf, very low cooldown, no resource, and pretty decent damage. AND you can spawn corpses out of nothing with skeletons and a basic ability.

Pretty much everything I leveled to 25 and fully geared became overpowered. We had higher drop rates and nothing better to do but min/max at 25.
