Necro Death Servant - Broken for this long?

It's a little mind blowing that an entire class line for death servant has been rendered useless and un-fixed.

Death servant damage shield at level 47 does 30 damage. At level 12 it does 4 damage.

Before you say "make a ticket" - I have, its been there for a long time.

Would love to have some actual dev input as to why this isn't as relevant and why "realm timers" are more important?

People it effects versus people that vocally complain about it.

In other words, "Squeaky wheel gets da keek!"

Death servant is for mass farming yellows, the dmg shield literally isn’t an issue, you can mass pull with out it and still be successful.

The damage shield is integral to the process. You responded with quite frankly the most careless way possible. The class isn't working as intended. Period. It should be addressed.

The Necro shield was caught in the crossfire when they nerfed all damage shields some time ago.

It basically went from very nice, maybe a bit too much, to dogshit...

All I’m saying is you can literally farm with out the dmg shield and still be fine.

They limited FP to three casts no matter what for some reason, and the majority of mobs (even yellows) don't die in three Necro PBAE casts, so you're reliant on the damage shield to finish them off unless you're single casting your shade nuke once or twice for every mob.

Yes, because so many PvE-focussed players have 30 RSP to throw away to "fix" an issue that shouldn't be one to begin with.

How about they fix the issue itself instead of forcing people to apply a band-aid which shouldn't be needed?

Sounds serious enough, personally don't care but definitly have my +1 (link the defect so people can up it maybe ?).
