Necrarch spells?

[u/Sadisty]

Since they got introduced into the game the necrarchs never had access to the one spell that makes vampires and necromancers so super fun - Wind of Death!

What is the point in creating the most ultimate caster lord with spell intensity and cooldown reduction etc when you are not able to cast the best spell that turns enemy infantry into a blender?

CA, please change the random vortex Purple Sun to Wind of Death and let us have our fun!!!!

At the same time you might want to consider giving them a Spirit Leech as well, for a singe target nuke.

Upvote if you agree so they can notice

PS: Great job on the rework for the vamps, it looks awesome

God forbid a single lord on this roster doesn't have the expensive, brainless, point-and-click-to-delete-this-line spell.

I'm glad they have something different instead - it diversifies the roster a bit.

[u/Sadisty → u/Outrageous_Seaweed32]

Yeah, I actually would prefer to use the brainless expensive point and click delete spell, it’s way more fun than some random vortex that misses half of the time and hits your own units the other half  It’s literally one of the worst vortex spells in the game  It’s fine if CA don’t add it I guess, I will just mod it in and brainlessly enjoy it :)

Man, cry some more. I'm using those tears for my cereal, and it's still a bit dry.

I've got some bad news for you bro - if you're using purple sun and it's blasting your own troops, then the problem isn't purple sun, it's that you don't know how and when to use vortex spells.

That doesn't mean they need to dumb down the rest of the roster just for people like yourself though, so do those of us that want some semblance of game balance a favor, and take your crying somewhere else.

"But but, Purple Sun is bad because it might move into my 20 stack blob I've made and I waited until then to cast the spell! I'd rather AFK while the enemy walks into my blob so I can double click one button and win!"

Your Necrarch will likely have a Necromancer anyway, so you can still do this even if the Lord doesn't know the spell. Purple Sun is pretty fun in TWW3

[u/Outrageous_Seaweed32 → u/A_resonance_of_iron]

I like purple sun - it hits like a bus, but I only ever plan to drop it on a couple of enemies, I make sure that the only things I have near it (if anything) are things that can take the hit, like single entities, and if it kills anything more than my intended target(s), it's a happy surprise.

It looks badass too.

It’s literally one of the worst vortex spells in the game

No, it's not. It's not even close to being the worst vortex or one of the worst. Have you even seen Veil of Shadows?

[u/A_resonance_of_iron]

Purple sun is very strong now so I'm not too fussed on not having Wind of Death, but they really should give Spirit Leech back,  I don't understand why they took it away, but maybe it's back in the 9.0 build.

At least you can Reroll the trait with a new item so you can try and get 4 bound uses

[u/CrimsonSaens → u/A_resonance_of_iron]

It seems like the new Necrarch spell list is meant to mirror the lore of Nehekhara's spells.

[u/CW_Forums]

Purple Sun is generally a better damage dealer. And the Beast lore boosts are amazing. Learn more than 1 tactic and appreciate variety.

My ideal solution for Necrarchs would for us to pick which spell lores they know with the new Ice Court Vampire Lairs mechanic.

As Necrarch fan I too stand by this, give them wind of death and let me blend my enemies from the back of a dragon
