Only those brave enough to face their own fears were privileged an audience with Lady Hel, the Queen of Dead. Following an ancient dark ritual the Queen herself pierced them through with a Cursed Ruby siphoning all the living matter out and filling their mind and body with the curse and plague... In exchange of their souls Necromancers obtained a forbidden knowledge of Black magic, ability to create the fields of cursed matter, to bind and petrify, to use bones of fallen enemies to summon horrible skeletal creatures, and even to consume the life energy of living beings while curing their own damned bodies.
+
== Story / Lore ==
−
The most advanced of Necromancers may learn how to raise corpses from the dead, and lead their mindless puppets into the battle, though one needs to show its worth to the Lady Hel by fulfilling one of her wishes.
+
Those who study the planes of life and death at Temple of Afterlife get to embrace the power of soul over body, being able to raise the dead from their decaying bodies, becoming Necromancers.
  
 
=== Class summary ===
 
=== Class summary ===
 +
Necromancer used to to be an Expanded class, but now it is the base class of Revenant. It has 50 Job levels, and can promote to Revenant on job level 40 as default. This class offers balanced combination of nuke/AoE/debuff and summoning spells.
  
−
Necromancer is a standalone (no rebirth, 99/70) mage-type class featuring a very unique gameplay. This class offers balanced combination of nuke/AoE/debuff and summoning spells.  
+
The most common build archetypes are based either on "mage-necro" or a "summoner" playstyle. First is similar to the classic RO mage class focusing on high MATK values and cast rate, but the interesting part is that besides high INT values Necromancers also favour STR as it gives a significant MATK boost (even more when paired with Lich's Staff - unique 1H-rod available only for Necromancers). Unlike its former state, this class is focused solely on summons, with few options to attack, them being Bone Spear, Soul Strike and Leech Life. With correct stat-distribution, good positioning, and supportive heals from Leech Life, necromancers can be level up pretty quickly and solo most, if not all, pre-second/trans class content.

In this playstyle summons are used mainly for "meat-shield" while Necromancer is preparing its deadly combo of "Soul Harvest" + "Spirit Rupture". On the other hand, Summoner style is based on utilizing summons as a main damage source. With correct stat-distribution, good positioning, and supportive heals from Evil Land, summoner-type necromancers can be decent MVP and miniboss hunters.
+
Summons DO trigger "on-hit effect/spell" equipments and cards such as Kasa Card and Elemental Sword, but at a lower chance.
−
 
 
−
It is also very popular to combine Summoner playstyle with "on-hit effect/spell" equipments and cards due to the fact that every basic attack of the summons is corresponded as if it was Necromancer's basic attack.
 
  
 
Note that this class is quite versatile therefore one can create its own way of playing, like a hybrid between mage and summoner, or even melee version of Necromancer.

#As a Novice Job level 10 make your way to [[Old Payon]]. You can go there by going right from Payon or by using Kafra's teleport from Payon.

#Once there, go to the building left(west) {{navi|payon_mem|70|171}} of the main palace. When inside, take the portal to the south.

#Talk to the man and pick Job Change. Talk to the Pile of Bones and pick the first option to assemble the bones to the pile. Then, talk to the corpse and use the Cursed Ruby on it. Finally, talk to the Pile of Bones again. You'll have risen a Zombie and a Skeleton.

= Equipment =
  
−
* Necromancers have unique Base Experience table which is a mix of 2nd class (until baselevel 50) and Transcendent 2nd class (above baselevel 50) exp table. That means one will need to obtain ~3 times more EXP to level after baselevel 50 as Necromancer (like any of transcendent classes). No HP/SP/Statpoints boost is provided similar to Transcendent classes receive.
+
= Stats for Nerds (Now Updated) =
−
* Since Necromancers cannot use any transcendent class equipment nor some popular mage-type equipment (like silk robe), they may seem to be quite limited in equipment, but this is not true. Besides having 3 necromancer-only sets of armor they also can use a wide variety of weapons (even some swords, see "Equipment" section).
 
−
* Necromancers possess the following elements on their skills: Neutral/Ghost/Shadow, as well as "Pseudo Neutral" from their minions' attacks (works the same way as normal monster attacks). Spirit Rupture holds the elements of equipped weapon (or Endow/Aspersio/Cursed Water).

Overview[edit]

Story / Lore[edit]

Those who study the planes of life and death at Temple of Afterlife get to embrace the power of soul over body, being able to raise the dead from their decaying bodies, becoming Necromancers.

Class summary[edit]

Necromancer used to to be an Expanded class, but now it is the base class of Revenant. It has 50 Job levels, and can promote to Revenant on job level 40 as default. This class offers balanced combination of nuke/AoE/debuff and summoning spells.

The most common build archetypes are based either on "mage-necro" or a "summoner" playstyle. First is similar to the classic RO mage class focusing on high MATK values and cast rate, but the interesting part is that besides high INT values Necromancers also favour STR as it gives a significant MATK boost (even more when paired with Lich's Staff - unique 1H-rod available only for Necromancers). Unlike its former state, this class is focused solely on summons, with few options to attack, them being Bone Spear, Soul Strike and Leech Life. With correct stat-distribution, good positioning, and supportive heals from Leech Life, necromancers can be level up pretty quickly and solo most, if not all, pre-second/trans class content.

Summons DO trigger "on-hit effect/spell" equipments and cards such as Kasa Card and Elemental Sword, but at a lower chance.

Note that this class is quite versatile therefore one can create its own way of playing, like a hybrid between mage and summoner, or even melee version of Necromancer.

Ongoing guide for new players as Necromancers

Job Change[edit]

  1. Before advancing, make sure you have 2 724.png Cursed Rubies and 10 932.png Skel-Bones. You can get those from Payon Dungeon. Cursed Rubies can also be bought from the Niflheim Tool Dealer next to the Warp Gate for 2,000 zeny.
  2. As a Novice Job level 10 make your way to Old Payon. You can go there by going right from Payon or by using Kafra's teleport from Payon.
  3. Once there, go to the building left(west) payon_mem70171 of the main palace. When inside, take the portal to the south.
  4. Talk to the man and pick Job Change. Talk to the Pile of Bones and pick the first option to assemble the bones to the pile. Then, talk to the corpse and use the Cursed Ruby on it. Finally, talk to the Pile of Bones again. You'll have risen a Zombie and a Skeleton.
  5. Talk to the man again to finish the quest.


  • Congratulations on becoming a Necromancer!
