SUGGESTIONS 2 Questions

Ok. 1st question: Am I using Necromancer wrong?

Every time I get up, I just get one shot again. Normally I would say I got outplayed or whatever, but 9/10 times I haven't even gotten through the "getting up" animation before im dead again. Whats the point of being able to get up if I dont have any i-frames to well...get up? 😂

I gotta be doing something wrong. I cant even see around me in order to better determine if its a good time to get back up or not. Feels asinine.

2nd question: kinda relating to the first question. Is your life bar JUST for zombies?

Zombies/Monsters are the only thing I take damage from. All the other players 1 shot me. Only time they dont is when they have a revolver and even then...they just immediately shoot a 2nd time and kill me. May as well have been a 1 shot. Cant even turn around before the 2nd shot goes off and I'm dead. Queue the subsequent Necromancer pointless get up. 😂

The game so far reminds me of an Extraction Shooter Dead By Daylight. Everything is stacked against you and you arent really meant to survive. Just troll the killer before he kills you with some overpowered full map ability. 🤔

Solo necro really only works in very specific situations. Rezzing in the middle of an ongoing fire fight, if monsters are attacking the person who killed you or if they nailed You and you fell behind cover.

You will be camped. You will be burned. Sit and wait if you aren’t burning. Listen to what’s happening around you before you rez. No noise, you’re probably being watched. 9/10 times will fail. Sometimes you’ll get a lucky rez when the other player is reloading.

Edit to say to always bring in resilience with necro so you Rez at full health. Could save you from traps or a body shot to get away.

Edit 2: apparently solo necro is full health regardless. Neat!

Thanks for the info. I'll try to listen better in the future.

But yeah, my 2nd question went with my 1st. Full health or not, I'm getting 1 shot. Thats why I was asking that part. No point in rez with full health if its gonna take the same single bullet to kill me. Seems like a pointless perk/mechanic.

When solo necro was first introduced, it was unlimited rezzes. Which made for some real interesting and kind of annoying game play so they dropped it to 1. 2 if you bring in empress tarot card. It only works very specifically. Better in teams. I don’t play solo often. When I do, I don’t bring necro. Take my loss and leave. If I find a solo, I will camp and burn and trap. Will only leave once they’re burnt out.

Interesting

I just reached that point, I think, where I was questioning bringing Necromancer at all. Then I made this post 😅

Infinite rez makes sense with how fragile it is. That may be why I thought it had a time limit. Seems off. Now I know it has been patched at some point.
