Necromancy is a combat skill that sits outside of the existing combat triangle. This will also be the first combat skill to go to level 120. Free players will be able to train the skill up to level 20. The skill will raise the maximum combat level of a player to 152.
Necromancy will be tied to The First Necromancer quest series, using quests released alongside the skill to introduce players to new mechanics, unlocks and rewards, as well as two Necromancy boss encounters. The narrative of the skill will revolve around the City of Um located in the Underworld and The First Necromancer as an antagonist.

Necromancy will be trained both by fighting monsters and by performing the non-combat rituals. Combat will involve dual-wield equipment: a main hand death guard allowing to use necrotic attacks and an off-hand skull lantern allowing the players to conjure the dead to aid them in combat. The combat will be complemented by the incantations, a new type of spells using necrotic runes. New abilities and upgrades will be acquired through the Talents system.
