The Elder Scrolls Online is getting a new expansion and the fans are thrilled. The reason is the speculation about a possible new class.
Since Zenimax and Bethesda released first teasers and announcements for the new addon for The Elder Scrolls Online, players have been eagerly discussing and speculating. However, the community is most concerned about one detail that has not yet been officially announced: The Necromancer.
Is a new class coming to ESO?
This is what the leak says: According to data mining information, there should be a new class called Necromancer in the new addon for ESO. This has excited players greatly.
Why are Necromancers so special? This is because there have always been Necromancers in ESO, but only as enemies. Furthermore, the dark arts were actually usable in other Elder Scrolls games. Only in ESO can you not summon undead and use other necro skills.
However, this is precisely what many fans want. Because the great freedom in skill selection and gameplay has always been a cornerstone of the Elder Scrolls games. Therefore, many fans have always been bothered that you cannot be a Necromancer.
Do Necromancers fit into the lore? One of the reasons why Necros have not been in the game so far is, according to some fans, the ban on necromancy. However, clever lore enthusiasts argue that necromancy was only banned by the Mages Guild in the third era.
However, ESO takes place in the second era. Therefore, there should be fewer problems regarding this. So, according to many fans, there is nothing against playing a Necromancer who uses his dark arts against other villains.
Is the Necro really going to be a new class? However, it is not even clear if the Necromancer is really coming. And if he does come, he could also be another skill line that every hero can learn. Zenimax had already seduced in the last addon Summerset. The Psijic Mage there was initially interpreted as a new class but ended up being “just” an extension for all classes.
According to Zenimax, this is much easier to balance than a completely new class. It is quite possible that Zenimax will proceed similarly here and make necromancy available for all heroes. However, most players wish for a new class.
Some fans dread having to raise a completely new hero again. Therefore, some players are also demanding an option to change classes.
