This is 5e D&D so therefore does not get a necro class. Nor should this game. People start asking for ALL the subclasses to be their own class, because... cool??
And Dread is NOT in 5e. So why would it appear here?
Heroes of Horror was a complete add on ruleset. Much like tasha's and sword coast. Which provide SUBCLASSES to 5e, because that's the system we use now.
Simple, people LOVE necromancy and necromancy is not present on most games and is awful on most AAA games.
Larian should't implement all non PHB classes, but should OBVIOUSLY implement the most popular.
While I would love nothing more than for them to add material please consider what that means. Where do they draw and line and for whom? If they port Dread Necro why not Knight or other non PHB classes? They are struggling with just implementing the PHB material.
Because there are a lot of people asking for necromancy and dread necromancer is one of the most popular custom classes modded to nwn2 and other D&D games. Implementing a new class requires a hell of a lot of resources, hence LArian should AFTER they implemented the PHB classes, maybe sell one as a DLC.
Honestly, I would glad to pay US$60,00 for a Dread Necromancer DLC

https://neverwintervault.org/project/nwn2/hakpak/original-hakpak/dread-necromancer-classIf a lot of people start to ask for death knight, then Larian should consider implementing it.
Other class which Larian should implement is Psion.
Dread necromancer also can use most Wizard/Cleric necromancer spells and will not require a hell lot of resources to develop. Modders will probably mod this class into the game...
