Here’s everything you need to know about the Necromancer and all the skills he can learn.

Overview

The Necromancer class uses dark magic to serve the light. Staying true to his name, this class uses magic to raise the dead to fight on his side, power them up, and even weak the enemies with all sorts of debuffs. The Necromancer can be frail, true, but he is still a force to be reckoned with.

Given how the Necromancer can sit back and let the summoned dead do all the dirty work for him, this class is a decent choice for beginners, although some builds are considerably more challenging to use than others.
