Necro Help

I have a few general questions, revolving around the Necromancer. First off, his summon spell, summon bone whatever, any of them, anyways...Do the things he summons have a limit in time that they stay for? Or do they stay until I log out? Also, when aquiering new skills from skill trainers, is there A: a certain level you must be, and B: can you aquire as many as you want? Thanks to the person who answears these, and when the game launch comes out, I will be sure to summon something from your dead corpse XD J/k, but seriously, thanks to whoever answears

1) The bone minions last as long as you want, HOWEVER, their health drops over time and the more minions you have out at once the faster their health drops. There are spells to keep their health up however.

2) There is no limit on the level you can acquire a skill, but in order to get to the skill trainers for certain skills you have to go through tough areas... so you can't just up and train a skill you'de get at the Henge of Denravi from level one character because you'de have to be a high enough level to actually get to the Henge of Denravi.

3) There is a limit on the number of skills you can have but it's very loose. You gain skill points from leveling and finishing missions. I've never had a problem of not having enough skill points.

Well, one more thing I guess...a few more...How many skill points do I get per level, and do I have to pick a second class? What are the advantages to not picking if you dont have to...someone mind explainging the level up system, and how you get skill points. Also! What are the points you use to put into like, soul preaping and death magic? Do you put it to death magic, or do you put it into things inside of that section? Like summon bone feind er whatever?

... provided you utilize spells to continually refresh their health, and even then, the decay rate increases exponentially, once combat is over. Outside of combat, they really don't last very long at all.

I'd always suggest a secondary class. It simply means that you can draw from more skill attributes than are available in one's primary class. That is, unless they introduce some Primary-only skills.

Yeah, right. That won't be easy for you to do, when your stuffed head is mounted over my mantelpiece.

Haha, nono, look, I dont even got the game yet and I have made enemies XD Well, ill see you in it, and ill be sure to have my undead minion give you a friendly handshake

You get 1 skill point everytime your experience bar fills up, which is once per level before lvl 20, 1 skill point every mission you complete. Each skill point is good for learning 1 new spell. After lvl 20, you no longer level up, but you still get 1 skill point everytime your exp bar is full.

Last BWE is the first BWE you have the ability to not pick a second class. Not picking a second class has no advantage over dual class characters, but has the disadvantage of only having access to 1 class of skills.

Everytime you level up, you get certain stat points. You gain some per level, but I don't know the exact numbers. With those stat points, you can put them into atributes your skills are linked to such as "death magic" to enhance all the skills that fall under that area. Eg. Summon bone minions. The higher the "rank" is in skill atributes, the stronger your skills under that area.

To increase the "rank" of an atribute, you need to put stat points into them. However, as you have more ranks, the amount of stat points you need to invest goes up. Eg. From rank 0 to rank 1 requires 1 stat point. But from rank 11 to rank 12 (max) requires 20 stat points (I think).

After lvl 20, you won't be able to make your skills more powerful by adding stat points because you don't get stat points after lvl 20. The total amount of stat points you get from lvl1-lvl20 is 200.

Well, is that enough to max out at least two things to level 12? And also, when it says it summons a bone minion of level 1-14 er whatever...is it just random? Or is it based on your stats in death magic? The body you use? What?

You might want to check out this article in the guides section of the site. It should tell you everything you need to know about attribute point distribution.

200 points is enough for 12 12 3 configuration.
