Ever since the addition of Necromancers to Diablo III was first announced, players have been eagerly anticipating the first chance to really try out the class. The good news is that people are going to get that chance soon; the bad news that it might not be you. But the good news again is that it might be you, and even if it’s not, you can still learn all about it. The closed beta for the new class is coming soon, in other words.
Players who opt in to the beta on Blizzard’s account management page will have a chance to be invited to test the class; there are no promises about the number of testers, however, and most people who opt in will likely not get to test it. There will not be an NDA in place, however, so you can read all about marching through the landscape while looking like a Hot Topic display mannequin circa 1997 with more corpse explosions. It’s the next best thing to detonating cadavers yourself.
