    Yesterday Diablo 3 released new paid content - the necromancer class! I've been waiting for this ever since Diablo 3 came out. I'm level 14 already and really enjoying it - at level 9 you get 7 skelebobs to follow you round!

    Blizzard do require you to own Reaper of Souls as well as purchasing the Rise of the Necromancer - however Reaper of Souls is currently on a discount in the EU store.

    If anyone is up for it, give me a shout and we'll group up for some monster-squashing Smile

    I am considering getting this pack, but am still unsure. I play D3 so on-again off-again that I still don't have the full st of seasonal transmogs.
    Still, the Necromancer was my favorite D3 class until LoD came out and the Assassin usurped that position (and I think the Druid ties the Necro for second)

    I gave up with Diablo 3 a while ago after completing the original campaign for the first time. But this necromancer is so much fun that I'm definitely going to run through a second time, and possibly try to get some more achievements Smile

    I've never bothered with transmogs in any game. Never got far enough in any game to get to that level. I have too many games in my library and get bored of most 10-20 hours in, then forget where I was when I come back to them so start again.

    I'm looking forward to trying the Necro out though I've not got around to buying the pack yet. I have to admit to being firmly in the Monk camp however, just great fun carving through huge groups with exploding palm and way of the hundred fists.

    I tend to drop in and out of Diablo 3 depending on the mood, but I did play a bit of what I think was season 10.

    The best strategy so far with my Necromancer is to focus and kill a couple of weaker mobs, then just chain Corpse Explosion repeatedly... I also have a helm that 46% of the time gives me a free Blood Nova when using Siphon Soul Big Grin I've had to raise the difficulty to Expert just to get a challenge, and I'm only half way through Act 2....

    I've picked up the pack and I'm ready to give it a whirl - I'm still firmly in the Monk camp as a main though - I dusted them off last night and made about 20 paragon levels, so on to Torment 2 to pick up the pace.

    Nice. I completed the necromancer main story (to act 5) last night, my first complete run through. If you're around Petrarch, fancy some adventure mode? (I think Sammy was also interested)
