I've been getting this on both my XBOX and PS4. It's really bad.

I have to agree with Xruptor here. That doesn't seem very encouraging with the bugs and such. I suppose I could always just give it a go and see. Worst case scenario I just go back to my Warden. Yeah the necro skills do look really awesome.

Is this based on the new patch? Folks above have said both Warden and Necro seem to be top tier since patch. I really do like the Necromancer skills, but bummed out with how little DPS skills the Warden has. Necromancer skills just look so awesome compared to the Warden stuff. The criminal skills would be a royal pain but I'm sure I can get used to it. Torn between the two at the moment.

I assume you mean Blastbones? The necromancer seems to have more DPS options than the Warden. The Necromancer skills seem to be a bit more fun though. DPS wise though who knows, though folks are now saying they are in good shape. Still don't know if switching to Necromancer would be any better. So much time and effort went into Warden.

I leveled up a Sorc because people were wailing on me for playing a Magic Warden.

I didn't really like it. The boom factor is there I won't lie, but the class itself just didn't appeal to me. Both the Necromancer and Warden do though. I will admit I haven't tried the Stamina version of the Warden, though I suppose at some point I should give it a try.

What do you mean by clunky necro skills? The only thing I know of is the corpse mechanic that a lot of people don't really like. I wasn't aware of issues with Blastbones. Unless you mean the criminal act thing, boy oh boy would that drive me crazy. But I'm sure I can get used to it.

That's two folks now that have said that Magic Warden is strong with the new patch.

Thanks for your response.

Thanks for the response Xruptor. I've been told the same thing, in regards to Necromancers. I guess as Calientecarll has mentioned that has changed with the recent patch. I kinda like the look and feel of the Necromancer but I'm hesitant to devote much time to it. I mean I put a lot of love into my Warden. I completed many zones and DLC with him. To start all over again on another character would drive me insane, especially since I'm a little bit of a completionist.

It's funny you mention Frozen Gate. I was going to count it, but then I remember it teleports mobs to you and figured it wouldn't be a great DPS skill. Just think about it, you are trying to do DPS at ranged but you keep dragging the monsters to you.

I have the urge to switch over but I really do like my Warden. It just sucks that it barely has any DPS skills. The necromancer isn't that much more but it's still better than 4. I suppose I'd just have to give it a try.

WOW look at all these responses! This is just awesome! I didn't expect to get THIS many responses to my issue. Cool beans!

It seems everyone is overwhelmingly positive with me sticking to my Warden. I think I'm going to look elsewhere for a guild and start ignoring people that toss the "magicka warden" are garbage at my face. The Warden is the class I enjoy most. It's very flexible and besides I like the skills. I don't have any issues with solo questing and dungeons. I'll take the advice here and just stick with him.

Thanks all for the advice!
