Opinion: Worst Character to Be?

By Joker2016, in Talisman

You know the spider queen can land on her own web and get + 1 to dice rolls there?

If you're asking me then:yes. But still she's to much a bother to have on the board. As I said I know she's good, maybe to good in some ways (like obstructing the game).

Winning with the Necromancer requires being fortunate to draw the right cards, roll the right rolls, and avoid the wrong random endings. Every character requires some level of luck, but it requires far too much more with the Necromancer than it does with anyone else.

Please, you can replace Necromancer in the above quote with pretty much any character and it would be true.

Here's my list of 2/4 characters I'd rather draw than the Necromancer: Gypsy, Sage (Merchant has a better win-loss than the Necro, but still not a fan of him)

2/4 (or low Strength anyways) characters I'd want to draw Necromancer instead of (since we play single random): Cat Burglar, Druid, Elementalist, Ghoul, Grave Robber (though he is hella fun to play), Jin Blooded, Leprechaun, Minstrel, Philosopher, Priest, Prophetess, Spy, Sorceress, Sprite.

You and I obviously have very different playing styles. I love the Elementalist, Leprechaun, Priest, Prophetess, and Sprite. I haven't played enough with the Spy to determine if I like him or not, but he intrigues me.

If you have the D.E. my Steam handle is "josh.osbun". I'd be more than happy to let you try to beat me with the Necromancer. ;)

The Priest, by some distance. His abilities are pants *and* he's got a restriction.
