While I wasn’t expecting loads of new game content with this Pack, it does feel a bit like a cash-grab. You need to get the balance right depending on which skills are picked. The other difference with the Diablo 3 Necromancer is that health is used on some skills instead of Essence. Consequently, it needs to be topped up and harvested from enemies by whacking stuff with a Scythe or using Bone Spikes early on. The summoning of skeletons and Golems plays an important role in the Necromancer’s arsenal, and Essence is required to summon these minions. This means that the Necromancer has to play an active part in combat in order to replenish it. There’s stuff exploding everywhere, and, coupled with everything else that’s going on in busy areas, it sometimes feels like visual overload.Įssence is the Necromancer’s main resource, and it doesn’t automatically regenerate. Corpse Explosion is completely mental and turns the screen into a complete mess. Blizzard know players love exploding stuff, but they may have taken it to the extreme here.

The Necromancer class will be hugely popular, mainly because Blizzard has gone over the top with some of the skills.
