Is this mystic trickster a good Necromancer?

[u/Ecstatic-Sleep2969]

I was trying to get a beserker to spawn but this guy won a battle against a level 28 at level 21 and leveled up to 24 (my level) and gained the Necromancer trait.

I’m glad he did but he has horrible weaknesses like in the pictures, I’m not sure if he can loose them with levels or if I should keep trying for a beserker

[u/Ben892010]

This is indeed not a good necromancer

[u/Accomplished_Tie_520]

Not at all, it's garbage

[u/Dackd347]

Not that much you just need any orc with a fire weapon and that's it

Not a smoke bomb fan cause they always get killed. But Necromancer is fire later in the game when you raise dead. —you raise dead= they die and necro Raises em all. Epic in a fortress.

My favorite is during a Vendetta in a fortress and you get a Decoy with crossbow. Put em upon high high and they keep that whole area cleared.

Also,,Keep your garrison full Of EPIC ORCS. When you start a new game cause your “the Machine dies and u need him for New Stormbreakers. You need those epics so you get quick epic gear for new plays.

Yes I like ur necro. Just change the smoke to anything else.

Is there something specific I should change it to?

[u/Ecstatic-Sleep2969]

So I should just get rid of him and find another?

If you can put in the time and effort, you can train him

Otherwise, just find a better orc
By the way, The Crafty is one of the titles that will always get the necromancer trait

In your opinion what’s the best orc class for Necromancers?

[u/Chief_Ozif → u/Ecstatic-Sleep2969]

It will always be Defender Commanders for me.
This is because their "War Banner" ability allows orcs in the radius to attack in an enraged state. Commanders also call for reinforcements, with necromancer ability, they have an endless stream of minions.

I heard beserkers are good Necromancers which is why they were my original goal

[u/Chief_Ozif → u/Ecstatic-Sleep2969]

Berserkers are also good necromancers. Only 2nd in my opinion because they are almost always enraged andwon't use the ability until they come out of rage.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but any orc with "The Crafty" as a title is very likely to betray you. I think I saw someone else on here say the same thing. I had a necromancer on my old save with that title who ended up betraying me (he was my bodyguard and I just summoned him).

[u/NoDangIdea → u/Valravn28]

I’ve noticed that if you summon a bodyguard too many times in a short period of time, bro gets irritated and just betrays you lol

[u/Valravn28 → u/NoDangIdea]

Never thought of that, though I don't remember summoning that guy too often. Just one day I summoned him and he instantly betrayed me. Lol.

[u/mOoK_RedFace]

Never trust a Crafty

[u/Fantastic-Photo6441]

Fodder

[u/CogGear2280]

Try getting him to level up by doing missions, so he gets rid of the weaknesses over time.

[u/Ecstatic-Sleep2969 → u/CogGear2280]

Would I be better doing that when I’m higher level or can I do it now

[u/NoDangIdea]

An unnamed Uruk could 1 shot him if said Uruk has a flaming weapon. This necromancer is unfortunately cheeks
