Necromancer Summoning: Difference between revisions

'''Details:''' The [[Necromancer]] targets a monster's corpse and casts this spell, causing a humanoid skeleton to emerge. Raised skeletons are {{iw|melee melee}} fighters who spawn with semi-random equipment. Skeleton AI is about the same as a [[Mercenary]]. Meaning, they will pursue enemies that they see and otherwise stay near their owner, but can sometimes get stuck behind walls or around corners. If they get lost too far away from their owner, they will teleport to somewhere onscreen.

* Skeletons have a 5% chance to spawn with a shield, and a 3% chance to block attacks with a shield.

* [[Fire Golem]]: +6% Damage Per Level

'''Details:''' Raises a Golem from the earth to fight for you. Before spending more than one point into Clay Golem consider that you will probably want upgrade to [[Blood Golem]] (at 18), [[Iron Golem]] (24), or [[Fire Golem]] (30), all of which replace the Clay Golem.

'''Details:''' This skill provides a passive bonus to the speed and hit points of all golems.  Enhances speed and life of Golems. Golem Mastery adds more Hit Points to the Golem's Original Base Life, not the Life shown with more than one point into a Golem skill.

* Most useful if you're planning to use a lot of Iron Golems, since the others can simply be recast as often as you like.

* Skeleton mages have high elemental resistance, especially to the element that makes up their own attack.

* See the [[Summon Skeleton Mage]] page for a complete breakdown of the damage, hit points, and more for each type of skeleton mage.

* Hit points lost through the golem taking damage bypass the Necromancer's [[Bone Shield]] skill.

* The Golem gains 70% of the health it steals while the player gains 30%. If the current life + stolen life > maximum life of the Blood Golem, the Hit Point overflow goes to the Necromancer. If the current life + stolen life > maximum life of the Necromancer, the Hit Point overflow returns to the Golem up to the maximum life for each target.

* Fire Golems are very effective at drawing in monsters, thanks to the constant damage their fire aura deals everything on the screen.

* Fire Golems deal substantial fire splash damage when they die. This can be used as a weapon by casting and recasting them beside a target.

* Revives only last for 3 minutes, so keep moving and keep summoning up new ones to replace the old.

* Each point in Revive simply adds one more to the number you can keep alive at once. If you're not using them all on a regular basis, more points here are not well spent.
