Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy

Since mid-2015 there has been a considerable amount of development with Hot Summer Nights 2015, the Elemental Lore Review, and the Teleportation review.

Pages with this banner have been affected by development and are in various stages of update progress, but not yet complete.

The skill representing one's proficiency with manipulation, disassemblement, and reconstruction of live organic matter. While any profession can train in Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy, it does not apply to any spells or abilities outside of the sorcerer domain. However, training in Necromancy lore will increase the damage and flare rate done by RotFlares, which are an extremely rare item script.

• Sacrifice (ability)

At 10 Necromancy ranks, there will be no spirit loss on a failed SACRIFICE attempt. At 30 ranks, there will be no more spirit loss on a successful SACRIFICE attempt.

• RotFlares (item script)

Flare rate increases at 36, 136, and 171 Necromancy ranks; damage increase based on a seed 1 ranks summation.

• Blood Burst (701)

With just one rank of necromancy, blood drained from the target with this spell can be returned to the caster. Increased training will increase the amount of blood returned.

• Limb Disruption (708)

With necromancy training, limbs completely severed by this spell have a chance of re-animating and attempting to hinder their former owner. The chances of animation are based on the caster’s necromancy ranks in relation to the target’s level.

• Grasp of the Grave (709)

Subsequent knockdown attempts have a chance to damage the enemy with grapple damage. In addition, the subsequent knockdown attempts have a chance to grapple (damage) the target based upon a (2 * seed 2 summation of Sorcerous Lore, Necromancy ranks), including a small chance to outright strangle the target!

• Pain (711)

The threshold of endroll required to obtain each level of pain infliction is reduced by training necromancy. A minimum of 0.3 ranks per level is required to enable the maximum effect (35% health loss & 7 sec RT), which is achieved at endrolls of 166 or greater. 1x will reduce the necessary endroll to 141+.

• Pestilence (716)

Increased number of charges and chance for reactive attack. Total charges = 5 + 1 per seed 9 ranks.  % Chance = 25% + (2 * seed 9 ranks).

• Animate Dead (730)

Caster's necromancy ranks have profound effects on both Maximum Animatable Level and duration. With zero ranks, one can only animate creatures ten levels below their own. At 25 ranks, the caster will be able to animate creatures 9 levels below their own, with an increase of one level per 5 ranks of necromancy (this equation assumes the caster uses their own crystals made from Troll King blood). At 70 ranks the necromancer would be able to animate creatures of an equivalent level, and the maximum MAL is (level+26) at 200 ranks.

• Ensorcell (735)

Allows sorcerer to gain energy faster per seed 1 of the summation chart (fewer kills to reach maximum energy per week).
