Necromancy Spell Focuses for Summoning Undead Warriors and Raiders

guide

Necromancy spell focuses for summoning undead warriors and raiders give a caster several distinct ways to raise fighters from death and throw them into combat. Each focus produces a different kind of servant, from phantom weaponry to shielded corpses to bound raiders, and each one changes how a fight unfolds.

Battlefield Focus

The Battlefield Focus does not raise a body at all. Instead, it calls up the weapons dropped by the dead during old wars, sending those fallen arms to pierce and cut down enemies standing ahead of the caster. When the spell is cast while crouching, the phantom weapons instead strike at foes surrounding the caster.

Casting through a Necro Staff widens the effect, adding further rows of phantom halberds to the barrage.

Cursed Cairn Focus

The Cursed Cairn Focus brings up lanky, fallen crossbowmen. These summoned archers rain arrows down on whatever the caster is fighting.

Casting through a Necro Staff raises a larger number of Draugrs in a single casting.

Cursed Grave Focus

The Cursed Grave Focus draws on the bodies of brave fighters that lie scattered through cold, frozen regions. Necromancy lets the caster bring such corpses back to a semblance of life, echoing the way Maledictus laid its curse on the guards who held it.

Casting through a Necro Staff raises a larger number of Draugrs in a single casting.

Cursed Tomb Focus

The Cursed Tomb Focus produces Draugrs of the ordinary sort, except that these carry shields. They raise those shields from time to time to turn aside incoming attacks.

Casting through a Necro Staff raises a larger number of Draugrs in a single casting.

Desert Raid Focus

The Desert Raid Focus exists because Koboletons make for a formidable force once they answer to a commander. The spell calls them up and binds them into the caster's service.

Casting through a Necro Staff raises a larger number of Draugrs in a single casting.

Choosing a Focus

  • Battlefield Focus — no summoned body; phantom halberds stab and slash in front of the caster, or all around when crouching.
  • Cursed Cairn Focus — tall undead crossbowmen that fire arrows at enemies.
  • Cursed Grave Focus — revives the corpses of valiant warriors found in cold and icy biomes.
  • Cursed Tomb Focus — shield-bearing Draugrs that block attacks now and then.
  • Desert Raid Focus — summons Koboletons and binds them to the caster's will.

Every focus listed here responds to the Necro Staff in the same way: it increases how many Draugrs appear at once. For the Battlefield Focus, that same staff instead adds more rows of phantom halberds.
