Meet the Reaper: Necromancer’s Elite Specialization

[Kazgrel]

Now I can't help if wonder if we're gonna have a see-saw effect of sorts with these announcements:

Mesmer - Woooo neato
Guardian - dafuq
Necro - Woooo neato

I'm betting negative one million dollars on main hand focus.

[Rivellana]

WHAT?! I had been main'ing my necro for awhile before swapping to ele last time I was playing a bit. This looks so cool I might have to go back to necro. Always loved the thing, anyways. This just looks awesome. Helps that I also always loved the greatswords in the game. :P

[Vintersol]

Awesome as fuck. My necro is happy.

The name is pretty generic but at least it fits within the specialization itself unlike dragonhunter which has nothing to do with fucking dragon hunting.

[4KhazModan]

This is all I could think of while watching the teaser

[PACOX]

Necro definitely might be one of my most played classes depending on how the thief reveal goes. They've done a good job at selling the theme, who doesn't want to play a horror movie villain at least once.

[Malthanis]

@4KhazModan:
WTB cowbell focus skin.

I really like how they're doubling down on the "Necros are the tanky light armor profession" theme here. Can't wait to see how the abilities play out on this.

[Kazgrel]

Now all they need is the blade shard/wing backpack to double as a jump booster with HoT...well, that, and pistols:

That would not qualify as a disappointment, least to me.

I'm sooo fucking happy I was leveling my necro lately for the elite spec. Thought it would be some kind of Death Knight and it actually is pretty close! ^^

Please don't be Thief next, don't be Thief next, don't be Thief next.

[Christonya]

Can't wait till tomorrow... Then all the peeps are going to dust off their still unviable necros and run around getting kicked from zerk groups.

LOL I actually am hoping it is Staff for them

I also noticed that on first read through I completely overlooked Reapers are getting a full set of shouts. That's interesting.

[Shaede]

holy hell this looks fun

Since staff is for druid most likely not. Right now the most likely candidate is pistol for warrior and dagger for rev.

Maybe Warriors could get something less physical. I'm thinking scepter:

Haha that shit is so dumb.

I didn't like either of the first specializations but the Reaper looks pretty damn cool. Reminds me of Dhuum...

Thief is my main so hoping to see it next, if only to confirm/deny that terrible rifle idea... not sure if the gw2 forums sparked that assumption or ANet mentioned it but we need something kewler like mace or shield and offhand sword etc. We already got P/P and they need to buff that and make it worth using before they add another ranged option.

Thief is my main too i'd like something cool, but the whole Profession is eh , so i'm expecting something eh as the specialization. Like a Dragonhunter. If its a Rifle it will probably be called something like Rifleman or Gunner.

Is that a Norn in the trailer?

[zito]

Haha that shit is so dumb.

It's suppose to be more "advanced" naming. Like bitch you name it a dragonhunter but it has nothing specific to dragons. It's your lame RP that ruined this for us.

No it is a human
