NECRO STRATEGY!

30+ players size raid group recommended

Tanks on adds with bash back up

ALL MAGES NEED FREEZE (the more the better)

Druids set for heals/buffs

Rouges with max expose to eliminate/reduce evasions

Rangers idc


Phase 1: mages keep boss frozen indefinitely while adds are delt with (freeze is the key to eliminate the every 20 second cast of necro area life steal)

Phase 2: mages freeze lasts i think like 20-30 seconds so it needs to run like clockwork. After adds are dead and while boss is still frozen everyone times 1 of their best hits (in a unison "volley") under the command GO from the preselected dps groups leader which will UNFREEZE the boss. RIGHT after the first volley FREEZE is the command from mage group to clan to halt dps on boss and refreeze the boss rendering him unable to use his area life steal.

Phase 3: repeat 1 and 2 until boss is dead

Rage could be an issue if volleys take more than 20 seconds between iterations.

Notes: the volley can last as long as warriors can keep bash on necro but as soon as the warning msg for the area life steal comes up mages need to begin the next freeze cycle and dps needs to halt.

This is a "bring your A game" only boss 1 noob could mess it all up. 1 afk on auto atk somone not paying attention not following commands ect. Recommended to keep clan chat clear only 2 people talking dps groups leader saying GO and mage groups leader saying FREEZE. Other than that in group call outs of AV for avoided.

I predict a 15-18 min kill time. That being said i remember the first few aggy kills on arawn taking 30-40 mins this of course before the era of boss rage.

Also freeze should never last its full time 15 seconds frozen is almost too long IMO unless adds are up.

All bosses are "supposed" to be able to kill before rage yet even for an entire clan capable of killing mordris necro stands undefeated. The ONLY way to beat necro is to stop his aoe life steal.

I doubt a group full of lvl 400 admins could use brtue force to dps their way to a necro kill. Best of luck hope one of the worlds out there will be posting drops verry soon. Ofc i hope its my home world lol but only noobs visit necro in arawn just to gawk at his mightyness...

If I recall correctly, necromancer constantly evaded shield bash. Think his evasion to skills might be too high. Might need a small nerf to make necro more practiable. :)

I love when people post a strat against a mob they most likely haven't even attacked. None of this will work. I'd say nice try but it really isn't.

First off its funny actualy i have been in necro test groups he does evade alot thats why u get a few rouges to alt to max expose. im a lvl 184 ranger and i doubt you have tried anything above brute force but its ok 99.9% of early man used rocks im trying to invent the bow.

Secondly whats your plan? Nothing? thats cute. If i could slap u i would(n't because i dont feel the need too beat occultists)

Third otm has said he is more easy than mordy if u have the right STRATEGY (sorry for using such BIG WORDS its for those who are reading/imagination challenged kinda just reiterating whats already written above) PROBLEM necro aoe life steal. The ONLY Solution to aoe life steal freeze then dps/bash till freeze recast repeat.

You are correct on one thing. This is a strategy for dummies alright.

Even OTM can't beat Necro. I don't care if they delete this post or ban me and say I am discrediting the company. But it is the plain honest truth.

There's no way necro is just a black hole for plat. Hes just not your run of the mill tank or root boss.
Still havent heard a single reason why this strategy wouldn't work other than ppl throwing there hands in the air cryin out "its simply imposible!" Give me a REASON.

START Freeze while kill adds 1-2 mins
GO Volley/bash 30-50 seconds.
FREEZE 15-20 seconds
GO Volley/bash 30-50 seconds.
FREEZE 15-20 seconds
GO Volley/bash 30-50 seconds.
FREEZE 15-20 seconds
ADDS Freeze while kill adds 1-2 mins
GO Volley/bash 30-50 seconds.
FREEZE 15-20 seconds

Whats wrong with this????

Plz point out the part where everyone dies and the bos resets or the part where necro has a chance to life steal aoe? Or even better cry to otm for a necro nerf that will never happen or better yet come up with a better idea.
