During PAX East Blizzard (CMs Nevalistis and Kauza along with Devs Matthew Berger and Robert Foote) held a workshop with some of the D3 media community. Details of those talks were released today, including info on the Female Necro and Blood Skills. Keep in mind none of this is set in stone but it is nice to see where they are currently going!

Details are at several sites:
BlizzPro http://diablo.blizzpro.com/2017/03/14/female-necromancer-skills-revealed-pax-east-2017-exclusive/
Leviathan of the BlizzPro team was there and wrote part of the article. He is streaming talking about it if you are interested and want to ask questions. Leviathan111 is his twitch name.
BlizzPlanet http://diablo.blizzplanet.com/blog/comments/pax-east-2017-diablo-iii-necromancer
Reddit (Thunderclaww) https://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/5zclfm/pax_east_diablo_press_event_summary_necromancer/
You can ask Thunderclaww questions there as well.

I will add more as I find them.

They are going to make it impossible to have multiple necros in a group if corpses are required. One necro would just use them all up, leaving others standing around.

They should rethink that one.

I would "assume" that corpses would be unique to each character.


Indeed. As we stated at BlizzCon, only the Necromancer who generated them can see their own corpses. It's much more a resource than an environmental effect.
