Nekro is a joke sigh. On top of that the description of the Arcane skill is misleading. Felt like I got scammed by STS on this pet.
Nekro
Happiness Bonus: +20 primary stat, 12% damage, 10% crit, +15D DEX, INT, STR, 6 Mana Regen.
Arcane Ability: Undead Warcry: Releases undead energy that slows enemies and has a 40% chance to banish enemies. Small chance to banish. Applies Dragon Scales.
Passive Ability: Nekro's Engulfing Breath: a fireball that damages and ignites multiple targets. Chance on hit to reduce enemies hit and armor by 20% for 4 seconds.
Compare to Samael
Happiness Bonus: +25 primary stat, +10% damage, 10% crit (which is actually +12%), +10 INT and 100 Health.
Arcane Ability: Banishment: has a 10% chance to instantly kill an enemy, and high chance to terrify. Instant death does not apply to bosses or PvP.
Passive Ability: Infested Touch: Damages multiple targets and has chance to apply toxic DoT. Toxin has chance to spread every tick. Chance to slow 30%, chance to panic 10%.
In other words. from a Samael to Nekro, You only get a boost of +2% damage, +10 dex, +5 Int, +50 Health, -2% Crit. Banish isn't as great as Samael which I thought was suppose to be better after seeing 40% banish was the only reason why I got it. but I was wrong, it was a Typo sigh so I got screwed. On top of that. Lost the hidden passive healing that samael give and the 10% panic that come with it in passive ability.
Basically it's a downgrade of Samael. I'm now back to using my Samael full time and Nekro is another waste which was suppose to be an ALL time best pet beside from SnS. If I had known the banish wasn't 40% I would never have gotten it. So words of advice. Don't hatch Nekro, so not worth it until sts do something of it.
