Description

Necromancers are servants of the dark gods, studying ancient and mysterious tomes to gain power over the world of the dead. Necromancers are primarily a magic-using class, with the ability to wear cloth armor and wield blunt weapons and daggers.

Necromancers are able to raise the dead, commanding them to do their bidding and aid them in battle. A skeletal servant often accompanies the necromancer in her adventures throughout Norrath. Necromancers have mastered the powers of poison and disease, allowing them to assault their enemies with damaging afflictions that savage their vitality over time.

Necromancers learn to control and mimic the dead, allowing them to escape harm, convert their health to mana, and bend the minds of the undead to serve their cause. The power of shadow also is within the domain of the necromancer, with spells that bind and choke their enemies in darkness, hide the necromancer in a cloak of invisibility, and teleport through the shadows to escape danger.

Necromancers are a very self-sufficient class and often choose to adventure alone, though they can provide great value to a group as well. The necromancer is an excellent choice for the independent player who enjoys a wide variety of abilities.

Creation Guide

Statistics

Strength: Strength determines how much you can carry. It influences maximum and average damage and how quickly you learn many offensive skills. Necromancers do not to be worried too much about strength except at lower levels where they can do with the melee boost. Carrying capacity is an issue since they often have to travel lengthy distances to bank or trade. It is a stat worth considering for your secondary bonus points.

Stamina: Stamina affects how many hit points you have, and how long you can hold your breath. It also affects how long you can jump before becoming exhausted. The main boon to stamina for a Necromancer is the extra hitpoints. However, the amount of extra hitpoints received is minimal, and generally it isn't worth putting your bonus points into this stat at creation.

Agility: Agility affects how quickly you can learn some defensive skills, how difficult it is to hit you as well as how much damage you take when you are hit. The true effect of Agility is often debated. Many feel that it doesn't make enough difference to worry about. Even though Necromancers generally force their pets to tank when soloing, a good AC is always something to work towards and putting some bonus points into this statistic is certainly not going to hurt.

Dexterity: Dexterity affects how quickly you learn weapon skills, and how often weapons will do their special. This really only has any relevance to Necromancers at lower levels when they are forced to melee. You should not put points into this skill at creation.

Wisdom: Wisdom affects the amount of mana the priest classes have, also rangers and paladins. It also affects how quickly you can learn many skills if your wisdom is higher than your Intelligence. This skill has absolutely no relevance for the Necromancer class and bonus points should not be put into it.

Intelligence: Intelligence directly affects how quickly you can learn most skills. It affects the amount of mana for bards and all pure casters, as well as shadow knights. It is the core statistic for Necromancers and a good amount of your bonus points should be allocated here. Whilst some people may say it is easy to reach the soft cap of 200 intelligence through the many bonus items in the game, this is one stat which you can never have enough of. Once you reach 200 intelligence you can then free up slots for other stat enchancers such as for hitpoints, direct mana, AC, or charisma.

Charisma: This affects amount you will be paid for goods by NPC merchants, and how much they will pay you. It also affects the saving throw on certain Necromancer spells (charms specifically). There is much debate over the true importance of Charisma. It seems that the truly defining element which impacts on charm durations is actually the targets Magic Resistance. Some people claim that it makes a large difference. Studies run at Casters Realm have been inconclusive, so you may choose to say "better safe than sorry" and add some points at creation. Keep in mind though that all Necromancers start with low charisma, and even adding a few bonus points will not be making much difference.

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. Now in terms of faction, Necromancers are generally hated everywhere, so there is no huge difference in the races in that aspect.

The Iksar necromancers level slower than the other races, but they have a health recovery bonus which assists when in skeleton form regaining mana, and the ability to forage for food. They also have a built in AC bonus.

You should also keep in mind that Erudite Necromancers have a number of quests available to them that no other race can do.

Starting Statistics

Spending Your Bonus Points

We recommend the following distribution of your bonus points.

Dark Elves: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Strength.
Erudites: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Strength.
Gnomes: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Strength.
Humans: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Agility.
Iksar: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Charisma.

This is an old guide and should be taken with a grain of salt. Putting points into intelligence is not necessarily a 'waste' but it doesn't earn you much in the long run. You'd benefit more from splitting your points up, doing 10-15 points into Int, 5-10 into Str, and then 5-10 into stamina as a first character. People who are established and are able to obtain equipment at earlier levels would be much better off putting their creation points in to Str and Sta generally. Iksars and Humans would likely always benefit from at least 10 points into int however.

Religion

Religion is not of a huge concern to Necromancers as they are already hated. Most choose to worship 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 the dead.

Pet Information

Focus Item

The only pet focus item that Necromancers can obtain is the

Encyclopedia Necrotheurgia

MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM NO DROP
Slot: PRIMARY SECONDARY
Effect: Reclaim Energy (Any Slot/Can Equip, Casting Time: Instant) at Level 40
Focus Effect: Minion of Hate
WT: 2.0 Size: MEDIUM
Class: NEC
Race: HUM ERU DEF GNM IKS

. Similar to the Magician pet focus items, this focus item makes the pet larger in size. It also provides a +1 level bonus to all summoned pets from spell levels 46-60. This allows for pets that can exceed the hit points, melee, and spell damage listed in the tables. The +1 level is added to the RNG of the level of pet you would have summoned. When you finish casting a pet spell, RNG will determine the level of pet you summoned in that pet's level range. If using the focus item for that pet, the pet's level will be RNG+1.

As an example, the Emissary of Thule pet has a level range of 43-47. When you cast that spell, at the end of the cast RNG determines the pet level to be level 47.
If you are using the focus item, it adds +1 to the RNG so the pet would be level 48.

Specialization

Necromancers have maybe the hardest choice of all. There are three classes of magic which would all be powerful additions for a necromancer.

Firstly there is Alteration. This covers many of the DoTs, Lifetaps, and Undead Charms. These spells are used a lot by necromancers, often in heavy combat situations.

Secondly there is Evocation. Whilst necromancers don't get a lot of nukes, they still pack quite a punch and can be quite nice with a primary Specialization. Whilst soloing necromancers tend to rely on their DoTs more, a necromancer with a good solid guild may find it worthwhile to specialize in Evocation.

Lastly there is Conjuration. This series covers the pet summonings, darkness and disease series of spells. It is probably the second most popular Specialization for the class after Alteration.

I would recommend going with Alteration myself since you will use these spells as a Necromancer more than any other.

 * Humans: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Agility.
 * Iksar: Add 25 to Intelligence, 5 to Charisma.
+This is an old guide and should be taken with a grain of salt.  Putting points into intelligence is not necessarily a 'waste' but it doesn't earn you much in the long run.  You'd benefit more from splitting your points up, doing 10-15 points into Int, 5-10 into Str, and then 5-10 into stamina as a first character.  People who are established and are able to obtain equipment at earlier levels would be much better off putting their creation points in to Str and Sta generally.  Iksars and Humans would likely always benefit from at least 10 points into int however.
