You can just instantly pop most enemies before you even take damage to yourself due to the magic shield. It gives a percentile value of hp reduction, obviously being a lot bigger on enemies and bosses which will inevitably have a bigger health pool in the first place.

Instead of using the crypt (although still useful), you can focus more on the desert to reduce hp globally, which is much less significant for an innately fragile character. Plus, attacks may end up focusing on them instead on the first place. The necromancer relies on attack speed much more so than the warrior or rogue since that is indirectly how he does almost all his damage.Įfficient mixing of rivers and forests along with the right perks and the crypt allow him to actually end up as a massive tank better than the warrior absorbing a lot damage to his magic shield, which resets on every fight, and deflecting a lot of the damage to potentially 10 (maybe more) skeletons. Why fight yourself when you could just have an endless horde of endlessly subservient minions fight for you? Personally, I have a massive, innate bias towards magic and especially necromancy in games. Personally, I haven’t really paid a lot of attention to the warrior or rogue in terms of genuine effectiveness, due to me almost always using the necromancer as soon as I unlocked that class.
