Necromancer Introduction
Necromancers are the blade-wielding, undead-commanding, area-of-effect specializing spell casters of EUO. They are equally at home in playing as a front line combatant, slinging spells from the back, or acting in a support role. Like most spell casters, they benefit from equipping unarmoured gear.
They have three class skills: hexblades, necromancy, bonecrafting.
They are also the only class that can tame undead monsters, but they need the commensurate Taming skill on top of necromancy.
Necromancer Skills
Necromancy
Necromancers have one skill pertaining to the use of magic: Necromancy. For more details on spells and magic in general, refer to: Magic and Spellcasting.
| circle | spell name | runic incantation | description |
| 1 | Summon Undead | KCX | The higher your skill and the more you cast this spell sequentially, the more powerful your summoned undead allies become |
| 2 | Dark Ritual | CW | This is the hexblades version of 'bless weapon : it will take a longsword, scythe, rondel or kryss and convert it into a hexblade |
| 3 | Soul Transfer | MPT | Drains life over time - exact specs: target loses 5% of health per sec over 5 sec, caster gains 5% per sec (% of own health, not target) - both caster and target are frozen during transfer |
| 4 | Corpse Explosion | FGC | AoE mass curse that curses targets such that when each target dies it explodes - inflicting damage on everything within 3x3 square |
| Ritual Sacrifice | CM | Cast this on a corpse to give yourself a +50hp buff for 30 mins | |
| 5 | Command Death | SC | Any player that has this buff cast on them will automatically resurrect after dying! Lasts for 10 mins. (it is not a PD preventative, and cannot be cast on self) |
| Giblet Golems | ICK | AoE mass curse that curses targets: such that when each target dies, it turns into a bunch of body parts which become aligned to caster | |
| 6 | Death Missile | CP | Clone of Grav Por, but with the strength of Vas Flam |
| 7 | Cone of Acid | ICH | Clone of IFH, but inflicts disease on all targets, reduces victims MR and Def by 25% ... |
| 8 | Hail of Bones | CY | AoE DoT high damage spell |
Hexblades
Hexblades is the melee combat skill used by necromancers.
Hexblades requires wielding a ritualized weapon which is created via the Dark Ritual necromancy spell. These weapons are the athame, the sickle, the stiletto, the kris, and created by casting a Dark Ritual spell on an equipped longsword, scythe, rondel or kryss respectively.
- longsword->athame
- rondel->stiletto
- kryss->krys
- scythe->sickle
All non artifact weapons of the correct type will convert into their hexblade equivalent, and convert back by casting Dark Ritual again while wielding the hexblade.
All hexblades use the 10:90 STR:INT ratio.
Hexblades Specials
BUY THESE AT THE UNI! You can also use the 'special move' generic ability to cast apprentice special etc, as for the fighter specials.
Black Lightning It's blood bolt, but intelligence adds damage.
Healing Bolt It's a reverse blood bolt, that leeches health and restores yours: doesn't do as much damage as black lightning. Heals up to 20% of your max HP per bounce (up to 60% total).
Note: Performing wallop with hexblades inflicts disease for 6 seconds.
Bonecrafting
Bonecrafting is the only class-specific crafting skill in EUO.
For necromancers, equipping a bone tinted armour or jewellery increases their hp by roughly 10%, with diminishing returns for each additional bone tined item equipped to a maximum of a 50.5% bonus to their hp. For non-necromancers, bone tinted items only increase their hp by half of that.
Bone tinted weapons grant +10% dmg to spells.
