Talk:Necromancer

Main Type?
Would people think that a BiP necro would be one of the main types of necromancers played?

It was recently removed from the MainPage as one, and I'd like to know what people think.

Other 'types' currently on there include SS necro and MM.

differing headscar appearance
Would someone else mind confirming this for me so I know I'm not just imagining things? Every Necromancer face has the main scar part on the left side; however, some male faces also have a little bit extra at the right temple. It's not visible with every hairstyle, but pick a hairstyle (2 or 3 is far enough back, I think), set the skin tone to dark, and the scar color to purple so it'll stand out more. Then move -leftwards- (backwards) through the faces. You'll see the extra bit on faces 1, 2, and 6 (again, counting left).
 * First: I'm not imagining this, right? Not some weird voodoo in my comp?
 * Second: Anyone know any other behaviour like this for any other class/gender match? I think this is a unique case; possibly left-over faces from a time when the scars all did that, and some things got switched and others forgotten.. --Nunix 23:03, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Chapter 2 skills
They dont belong in here. There will be many many ch2 skills, which cannot all be listed here. A better place would be the Ch2 article (or maybe a "new ch2 skills" article). Or, even better, just make new skill stubs. --Xeeron 18:54, 17 February 2006 (CST)

Agreed.

Flesh Golem
The skill description doesn't fit the skill name. I'm assuming it creates a flesh golem minion that leaves a corpse, since the name doesn't make sense for a skill that just creates a corpse.
 * A skill that just creates a corpse? I wish that was a real spell cause that'd be useful! Concerned Citizen 23:29, 8 March 2007 (CST)

"animate a level 3...21 Flesh Golem. The Flesh Golem leaves an exploitable corpse. You can have only one Flesh Golem at a time." As it says, it creates a minion which also happens to leave a corpse when it dies. Defiant Elements (talk ~ contribs)

Someone Please Change the Picture
Looks ugly.
 * It would be really nice if people who wanted the picture changed... just found a better picture and changed it. Saves leaving 'messages' for people. Or, if you can't, just say 'Guys, I think the picture should be changed, but I can't find an appropriate one. Thanks.' Really guys, we're not babies.Leina 06:46, 2 April 2007 (CDT)
 * And also on the topic, I replaced the Necro picture because the old one had only a screenshot of a female necromancer - all profession pages should have both genders included in the picture. I'll try to find a better one. I just hate ones with a dull monotone background. Leina 02:48, 11 April 2007 (CDT)

New one is much better. Good pick. -Auron  07:06, 2 April 2007 (CDT)

'Corpse Bomber'
Is this a build actually worth mentioning?

I mean, the strategy for most builds is to kill an enemy as fast as you can, and the strategy of the explosion skill is to... well... make corpses go BOOM. What next? A necro build which kills people as fast as they can so that they can use Soul Feast? It just seems obvious and unrequired. I may be wrong, haven't really been in the game too much of late...

Also Necromancers might wear dark capes and use dark powers as well.(76.247.222.101 05:45, 9 November 2007 (UTC))

Undead?
Aren't necromancers technically undead? There are a lot of references to them having died once already...I can't remember all of them, but one example I just read was on Hayda's page..."people who come back from the dead don't have the same value system." I think there's more than that...I KNOW the game doesn't treat them as undead (unless they use that insignia that increases holy damage against them), but technically, I think they are undead.
