#4 - An upgrade to the mindwrack line of spells (currently being evaluated)
As a side note to this, many necromancers continue to ask for an improvement in the Subversion (mana transfer) line of spells. However this is a very very very controversial subject in the necromancer community. I will however try to cover the rationale behind asking for a better mindwrack spell, and why others continue to ask for improvements to to the Subversion line. Spell costs continue to rise, and necromancers are still being asked to use this line of spells both during raids, and to alleviate downtime. What is ending up happening is that necromancers are spending an inordinate amount of time doing so to the exclusion of their desire to perform their class’s primary role: that of dealing damage. Many necromancers just want a sense of closure to this line, either through making it obsolete through an improvement to mindwrack (the most popular, and hence the request that is put forward) or through an upgrade to the line such that we are not spending long periods of time assisting other characters with their manapool at our expense in both time and effort. (Many have suggested one large transfer with a very very long recast time).
