The only reason necro WORKS in plat and higher because EVERYONE ELSE got nerfed. The balance is so bad it is laughable. I can run basically any other class in bunker mode and have the same results - your point is mute. What's the problem with that? Why have you convinced yourself that how the class got to a good place matters more than the place it's in?I don't think you understand balance, hence why you are asking that question.

I can run basically any other class in bunker mode and have the same results - your point is mute. Except most other classes are not run that way, are they? Does it matter why necromancer got into the state it is now? No. Again, if you think that a class which is valid in platin/legend needs buffs, while there are classes which have no builds viable in those difficulties, you might be very surprised IF balance happens, and not in a good way.Ofc it does, it means they did not put any effort into balancing it. As I said, I can run a viable bunker with EVERY class with the same result. And if one can do that, how do you justify having a bunker spec as something to be proud of lmao.

Think its more the old most high tier classes still having too much dmg mitigation,5min ago i watched sind showed how they zerg 1v3 and the target still gets away. Like its almost funny how necro and thief actually dont do damage anymore. As to OP,I have zero hope, since its rare they balance for high tier + they said they dont wanna work in animation changes. Just try to enjoy necro as it is. It would be fine if it was just dmg, but a lot of those classes have insane surviveability and boon generation to go with it. So yeah, very much agree this bs has gone on unchecked for 8 years...

Better question is - What Necro build has any damage? I run the only useful necro spec right now - core bunker, like everyone else. You under impression there's a damage build that's viable in high level pvp?

Just had a look at their streams - was I supposed to see something I didn't mention in my post? They are very much bunkers / disruptors with little to no ability to fight alone against self sufficient classes like rev. Condi pokes and distruptions are well and good but maybe for once in life Necro should be balanced to do real damage in 1v1 scenario.

So is Anet going to address how severely under-powered a Necro is in PvP? Sure, the standard Core Necro Build is currently pretty good in Bronze / Gold but it is next to useless in Plat / Legend. It doesn't matter how many boons a Necro can corrupt, if an Engineer or a Rev can cleanse them with ease and replace them with boons. Are we really essentially reduced to being a punching bag 'Bunkers' on points? What enjoyment am I to get out of such imbalance?
