It is the Priests of Rathma that keep a close watch and guard the cycle of life and death. However, when the Fallen Star starts to create an imbalance, the Necromancer is sent to put back the order using their own power of resurrection.
The Necromancer Pack will also include a slew of armor sets such as the Bones of Rathma, Trag'Oul's Avatar, Grace of Inarius, and Pestilence Master's Shroud. The Necromancer's abilities were also revealed in detail last month when the beta was launched.
