Reanimation is pretty incredible now with utility, Im not joking…

However, for the bad news…

Corruptors, at least for PvE, still kicking ass and taking names for melee pets and AoE/Damage is concerned.

Talk about tossing us a “utility belt”, I was VERY impressed with the changes made to Reanimation, VERY IMPRESSED.

Yeah Nightfall got hit hard, big time, but anyone aoc gold complaining about Reanimation is a complete tool. As much as I was joking about “utility” before, looks like IF FUNCOM keeps this in place, the jokes on me. With this last patch, assuming nothing changes with the Reanimation tree, we truly are a pretty powerful pet class.

Im watching the 2 80 necros in my guild just destroy people, yeah they get owned from time to time, but ESPECIALLY with how incredible the Blighted Ones are right now, pet necros are going to have some interesting builds popping up utilizing our “drain” dominance now.

Mutilators, cant tell anything really, appears the DoT they apply is doing more damage, nothing mind boggling though.

All I gotta say is, HOLY **** BATMAN!!!!

Necrotic Bombs, they buffed these guys BIG time, although not enough damage to “solely” rely on for PvP at least, I can see some very INTERESTING ways to use them for group combat, especially sieges.

These are what we fooled around with:

Ok been playing around with every pet I could muster, along with some guildies.

Blighted Ones, G fning G, couple of my aoc gold guildies are destroying people with them now, mainly melee, but casters are having a hell of a time as well. The mana and stam drain, with void now is unreal. Im betting it gets nerfed, its “too” good. Although I dont want them to touch it, its pretty damn sexy.

Yeah Archmages and Blood Arcanists got toned down for sure, not sure how I feel about that. With the buffs our pets DID get in the form of “utility”, its really tough to say if over all this is better for the “pet” junkies out there.

Nightfall, eek sorry guys, not sure what to say, it is pretty bad from what I saw in action. I dont have any actual numbers for Nightfall, just a ton of cussing in frustration over vent as the 2 necros tried their old builds out.

Im an asshat, I can admit it and I did have a tad bit too much fun causing some trouble on the boards, but if Funcom’s vision for the Necro was to be a pet class, they are doing just that, and a great job I might add.

Harvesters, for PvE, are you kidding Funcom? This is WAY too good to be true, there is no way they are gonna keep these guys where they are, as much as Im in awe of the mana regen they give, Im gonna go out on a limb and say Funcom is gonna tone it down unfortunately.

Life Steelers, another just WOW oh WOW, from what I can tell, tripled the amount they heal, however feated they dont do a significant amount more.
