The one pet focused set in the game certainly stands out against the Witch Doctor, but it?s the other major builds that focus on bone armor and using life for damage that help the Necromancer class stand apart from its brethren.

My fear was that they?d be a bit too similar to the pet-heavy Witch Doctor class, but I have not found that to be the case.

And of course, when the pack went live, an update went out to everyone that has Reaper of Souls, which added in the Necromancer set items and legendaries, but also added new zones, challenge rifts, and a few other minor features.Īs far as the actual class goes, the Necromancer actually does feel unique, and like a worthy addition to the game. To go along with that, you?ll get a new portrait frame, new banner, new pet, and a handful of other cosmetic items. The most notable are more character slots and more stash tabs, two things that I?m always in desperate need of. This isn?t necessarily a hefty addition to the game, but there are a few other perks included besides the actual class. It?s a great addition to a game that I?ve put a 1000 plus hours into already, giving me an even bigger excuse to keep playing as we head into the 11th Season this week. And quite frankly, the addition of Necromancers to Diablo III has been pulled off without a hitch. It?s been a couple weeks now since Blizzard launched the Rise of the Necromancer character pack for Diablo III, and I?ve spent what I feel is ample time with the class since that launch.
