I'll post in this thread something about necro vs sorcerer because it seems to me sorcerer might be in a too big disadvantage to be worth it when necro is around.
Necro has his strong shield which can easily mean there is 1 less character to heal for a healer, so he can focus better on other teammates and possibly more to do dps as well. Sorc is fragile and has mirror shield and that teleport spell, but you still must play sorc with much more caution investing more time into dodging.
Necro has aoe dispel which is awesome while sorc is very unlikely to have that since aoe dispel talent is paired with water globes instant cast talent.
Necro has armor reducing spell also boosting damage of some teammates, sorc has -literes for a team. No clear winner here imo.
Necro has this amazing lvl 50 talent to restore crapload of mana for a whole team (and himself) in a huge radius allowing everyone to spam like a maniacs and never having mana issues (possibly), while sorc has mirror shield which is okay, but not that impressive help. Only question is, does anyone use that nec talent at all? Skeleton lvl 50 talents seem attractive, but upon my tests, those lvl 50 talents regarding higher dps of a skeletons are pretty irrelevant for dps output while this is godlike talent solving mana issues for a whole team.
Necro has splash, sorc will get splash I see, so won't compare this now.
Sorcerer has higher dps than a necro, however seeing just how much does necro offer for a team (effectively -1 to heal, mana restore talent, aoe dispel), I'm not sure does sorc, despite having higher dps when compared to necro alone, actually offers higher dps for a whole team together. Currently I see necro to be just a bit too good to pass (or to use sorc instead of him). As a random member of a team (tank, healer, whatever), I'd always prefer having nec in a team to having sorc. First one allows for a much more relaxed playing and gives much more benefit for a whole team while other is pretty much about being dps machine not offering much else for a team.
How do others feel about this comparison between these classes? Is sorc still somewhat juicy pick, or did necro take over completely with his advantages?
