Playa Games has planned a new, somewhat more complex class. Playa Games has already tried its hand at complex classes before, but subsequently simplified them considerably. You can find out all about the "Necromancer" in this post.

The Necromancer beta is finally over! The first tests of the class have led to adjustments to the class. However, it seems like this new class is now in its final form.

Summoning

The Necromancer has the ability to summon one of three undead minions with a 50% chance instead of attacking. They attack for you in this round.

In the next round, the minions hit after your attack ("Summoning" does not work against mages).
