Necromancer

Description

Necromancers are masters of life and death, utilizing fire, magic, poison, and disease based spells to overwhelm their foes and assist their allies. Their choice to descend into necromancy has alienated them from most old-world civilizations, being killed on sight by most guards and shunned by many merchants. As such, the necromancer is very independent; few support classes are able to offer anything that the necromancer does not already have, and items and gear do not carry the same weight as they do for other classes.

The necromancer's power comes from a deep understanding of the powers of life and death. This grants them a number of abilities, including the ability to mezmerize, snare, and fear their enemies, to transfer mana and health to their allies, and lastly to assert their dominance over the undead with a number of efficient direct damage, charm, root and lull spells. The necromancer is classified as anti-natural and has some unique spells to attack animals and plant based mobs.

Creation Guide

Picking the right race

The first thing you have to pick then is your race. Which race you pick will determine the foundation of you character for the rest of your life in Norrath, so it is kind of important you pick one you like and that you will be happy with.

Now in terms of faction, Necromancers are generally hated everywhere, some races are hated more then others, Gnomes and Humans and Erudites are neutral races and will have an easier time building faction (especially gnomes being the least evil of all the necromancer race choices) vs a Dark Elf or Iksar so there is some difference in the races in that respect.

Human

  • Well rounded statistics
  • No low-light vision
  • Low starting Intelligence

Erudite

  • A number of quests available to them that no other race can do with some decent items
  • Like humans, no low-light vision
  • Highest starting intelligence

Dark Elf

  • Hated everywhere but a couple of other evil towns
  • Harder time building up faction in comparison to the neutral race choices
  • Access to the Thex Mallet and Reaper of the Dead questline (which is believed to be possible to do if you are not a Dark Elf, but requires incredibly high faction)
  • Only necromancer race that can use "hide." If you combine a successful hide while you feign death then you can clear your aggro list safely
    • Keep in mind some enemies can see through hide. But, this is a very useful combination of spell + ability and it shouldn't be overlooked.
  • High starting Intelligence.

Gnome

  • Least hated Necromancer/race combination
  • Easier to build faction with good races to access their areas faster and more efficiently
  • Generally have more access to cities/hubs/zones than other necromancer races
  • Access to the Tinkering skill which can offer some interesting crafting options
  • High Starting Intelligence.

Iksar

  • Hated in all cities besides their own, even those of other evil races.
  • An experience penalty of 20% other races have no penalty.
  • Health regeneration bonus (chart below)
  • A natural AC bonus
  • Access to Forage for food and water
  • Low Starting Intelligence

Froglok

  • +15 Poison Resistance
  • +5 Magic Resistance
  • Swimming (125)

If you are concerned with min/maxing, Iksar regeneration should not be underestimated. As the chart below shows, the Iksar Necromancer will lose health slower, which ultimately means that an Iksar Necromancer can kill more things, faster. This will mean increased experience gain so long as the Iksar Necromancer levels up in places with plenty of enemies to kill (which helps to mitigate the 20% penalty). The chart shows the differences between Iksar and Non-Iksar, for each spell under the Lich spell line in the rows, while across the top of the chart in columns, it offers the different positions that effect the rate of health regeneration.

Religion

Religion is not of a huge concern to Necromancers as they are already hated. Most choose to worship either Cazic-Thule, or Innoruuk the Prince of Hate, as it ties in well their role. The other choice is Bertoxxulous. Necromancers cannot be agnostic, as their dark powers are directly linked to their worship of their god.
