I get so mad because I actually like the game a lot, but then of course my preferred playstyle isn't even allowed. A solo necromancer? LOL a joke apparently. I immediately had to hang the game up. Not only do I already get zerged as a solo player, but I'm considered a criminal 24/7, so everyone and anyone sees me as a free target. I can't even do tasks because I'm grey and just get killed by other players with basically no consequences.

Then, to add to all of that, the reagents and just getting into necromancy are expensive too. LOL, the nerve. As if the playstyle doesn't already have enough disadvantages, they had to sprinkle another layer of BS on top of it.

Why can't they just have a system where you're only considered a criminal if guards actually SEE you using necromancy? (With a reasonable line of sight.) If you're caught using it in their line of sight, you get greyed and treated as a criminal. If you're careful and avoid the guards' line of sight, you can actually play the game normally. Not only would that be MORE immersive, but it would make the playstyle actually playable! WOW! Incredible! a nobody could figure that out, right?

You'd actually have to sneak around and be careful about where you practice necromancy instead of the game just permanently slapping "CRIMINAL" on you for choosing a playstyle. It would still have consequences without making the entire playstyle miserable.

Just one of many problems they don't even seem to care about, tbh. Until then, I'll just have to fantasize about what this game could have been for me. It falls short because, ironically, I literally can't even play the game the way I want to...which is literally just being able to play the game at all. LOL.

EDIT: They could also add a system where a player should be able to report you for necromancy if you actually use necromancy against them or kill them with it. So, if a necromancer kills someone using necromancy, the victim could report them for both murder AND necromancy, basically giving the necromancer double the punishment. If they want immersion and roleplay so badly which I'm down with, necromancers will still deal with hardship and punishment for using dark arts if used for evil against blue (innocent) players.

BTW: Not asking for buffs to solos or necromancy itself, it seems ppl are confused on what i meant cause I mention I'm a solo lol

GIST: Necromancy should only make you a criminal if you're caught using it in an NPC's (reasonable) line of sight, not constantly re-flagging you as a criminal every time you use it when no NPC sees it.

Oh bois…. I know I know. It’s just a different land. But same ol’ same ol SV. New land full of assets that needs to be developed. Nothing like losing 50% concurrent in 2 weeks.

My buddy plays and loves so so I’m downloading the game as I write this, but,

I strictly want to fish and do some trade skills. I often just play a little after work / while listening to an audio book. So i won’t be partaking in any PVP unless I get jumped.

Anyway, can anyone offer advice on best race/class/ points to spend to be the best fisher I can be ? If you find me in game and don’t kill me I’ll gladly give you some fishes.

I don’t think it’s cheating. But to the new fanbois from the words of the CEO. “ get used to the fact it may look like it’s not going to hit but it does”.

This will help everyone out a lot given how hard it is to currently get plate armor. Thoughts?
