Shadows suddenly converge, revealing the skulking form of a creature with horribly elongated extremities and twisted anatomy.  The n'ecare's movements are as fleet as a hare, rendering him difficult to see clearly, and his spidery fingers skitter constantly, as if the n'ecare was using them to taste the air around him.  From the dark pools of gloom beneath his cracked brows, the n'ecare's eyes glitter in fanatical mirth, made all the more terrible by the rotting maw of his grin.

Hunting strategies

On Plane 3 the n'ecare are mostly a threat for knocking you down with RT, followed by their AS boost or Vvrael warlock guiding force such as when casting Balefire (713). The aivren swatting maneuver can also force your stance down to neutral or even offensive with an RT lock, which all together can quickly become deadly. It is best to not hunt them with multiple creatures left standing for this reason. The aivren are flying monsters.

The most dangerous thing on the third plane is generally enormous rift crawlers following people back from Plane 4. The Vvrael warlocks are able to cast the itchy curse which is a disarm hazard. The warlocks can also dispel buffs, which can time badly with the AS spikes.

Other information

  • N'ecare can increase their attack strength by +105 (an "ice blue light").
