That NPC is pretty brutal. More than a cabal guardian? Eh, I dunno about that. It's more complex, but I'd say overall easier.

Not to say that storing gear in the Necro tower is something I'd do. I'd rather just carry it around and kill whoever tried to come take it myself.

I'm pretty sure handing it to a boss NPC and logging off while your enemies spam die over and over trying to get it back is way funnier than just holding onto it. I approve of Zerel's actions.

I did it with the assumption they'd retrieve it with little effort, but still look evil because I was at work and had to go.

Needless to say, it looks like that wasn't the case.


As for a boss NPC....heh. A necro has an easier time, granted, but so should a group. He dies so fast it's embarrassing that he is a 'boss NPC'.

We had a quite capable group.

Would a log of me killing the mobile in question by myself without a wraith army be adequate in quelling the debate of how beastly this NPC is?

Suddenly, a billion things are wrong with that place, but they were all fine yesterday. Does no else sense over-reaction and hyperbole?

Edit: Before I miss a golden opportunity -- I agree. He's super beastly and must be nerfed. :)

I don't really know how strong this NPC is, but a necro solo-ing something, even without wraiths, means very little. You essentially have two lathron NPCs and maybe even a guard for all I know, and you can heal the lathron NPCs yourself as well as hit the NPC in question with every debuff in the book.

You taking on this NPC with two shadowy wights would be about the same as a GM shaman and two GM barbs taking on the NPC. I don't know what kind of group was actually involved in fighting the NPC, but I assume some of them were ill-equipped.

Well, again I am silenced by the might of baldric. My man-crush now only has grown so much stronger.

I'm just pointing out that for pve purposes, the necro class is completely absurd, and pointing to how easily you can do something solo with the class might mean less than you realize.

I don't have a log but I've aided in killing the NPC with a priest, decent tank, and two damage dealers....its really not a tough NPC if you have the right set up.
