Necro buffs from recent patch, functioning?

  1. it's hard to tell while levelling and thus changing targets, but my initial impression is that it's working worse than yesterday as opposed to better - its not holding aggro from a single instant dot or destroyer, where bofore i could usually lay on two for quite some time or three briefly before they pulled aggro.
    Trying to work out if it's my targets, something about the spell rank, or that the change is not working as intended. (my gear hs not changed in the last day i don't think, though i've levelled a few times)
    Edit: Title change.
  2. it worked alot better for me
  3. all right then. i'm going crazy or just having resists or just doing something idiotic or it only affects top levels (which is sitll a buff, and smexy).
    ./whine off!
  4. ok im going to risk looking like an imbecile again by posting another one. This time i've confirmed IG with another Necromancer though! I only just levelled enough to get the Acolytes.
    I cast some spells and mouse over mana, watch the regen. I cast two ghostly acolytes and mouse over mana again. it does not go up (beyond the same basic regen). Confirmed with a 48 necro, they are seemingly having no effect whatsoever instead of healing mana as intended.
    Am i doing something wrong yet again or are these busted (or possibly busted at lower levels)? They're definately casting their spell on me, it's just having no effect whatsoever. I'd be as happy (happier!) to laern what im doing wrong that i could tweak to have them functional as i would being right about a bug for once :p

    Edit: Spelling.
    edit2: at this point im just goint to assume they're useless until higher level :p
  5. id put in a bug report. also get someone to group with you and see if it is returning mana to them. its still bugged if it doesnt give YOU mana but we know it works on others then.
  6. It really does just turn out to be a scaling issue. My observation was not wrong, but it gets rapidly better.
    I stand by the fact i was not hallucinating about either Sneer or Ghostly Acolytes, but both rapidly improve and i suppose it's up higher where htey really had issues anyway! :)
