Necromancer Skills

Question Title: Necromancer Skills
Category: Magic
Question: Dear Turbine,

Dramatic Build-up:

I have noticed that in some games, they employ a Necromancer type character with a spell class known as a "tap." A tap would be something like Life/Stamina/Mana tap, slowly draining a monster's hp/stam/mana.

Question:

Is there a chance that you could employ three spells (Life Tap, Stamina Tap, Mana Tap) that would fall under the Life Magic school? I believe that this could be useful for low to higher level characters in PvM and especially in PvP.

Thank you,

Answer: No plans to add necro at this time. I've wanted it for a while, it's pretty important re: the Dericost, but it's a lot of work and requires a lot of code.

I would think that Necro would be Anti-Life school. "l1f3 m4g3z r 2 p0wrfu11!!!!!!!!!!1"
