Necromancer

“ For the first time in thousands of years new Necromancers are learning the secrets of death magic. In addition to raising small hordes of mindless undead minions, Necromancers can lash their enemies with the unholy power of Oblivion, wreak dreadful curses, and cast spells of fear and shadow. Some are wide-eyed zealots who seek to join Ithriana's legions and bring about the final doom of Aerynth, while others are sheer pragmatists who seek to preserve themselves by making pacts with the new shadow, or simply embrace a new path to power. Sages and loremasters of every race look upon the rebirth of Necromancy with horror, fearing that the mere use of necromantic power will strengthen Oblivion's foothold in Aerynth, bringing the world ever closer to total destruction. ” - Necromancer Lore		Necromancer  Master of the Dead

Overview Necromancers channel the dark power of the void beyond this world to unhallow and undermine the Gods' creation on Aerynth. Their incantations corrupt the purity of life by limiting healing, disjoining holy blessings, and gnawing at their targets' very souls with volleys of negative energy. The ability to bind corpses into servitude makes even death no escape from their machinations.

Playstyle Tips Due to the prevalence of buffs from alchemist potions, Gravechill is one of the most powerful spells in the game. Use it wisely, and do not give your enemy an opportunity to re-apply their buffs. Harvest of Dust and Harvest of Bones are not very useful for PvP, but their damage adds up quickly when used to damage siege targets like walls and Bane stones. Embrace the Void is a unique and powerful buff that should be applied to yourself and every single ally in your party at all times. It could be the difference that saves a healer who has had their mana drained, or the last bit of stamina your fighter needs to finish off a foe. Because Necromancers are the only class that can cast unholy damage, other players often do not go out of their way to prepare resistance to it.
