This is a creator-reported playtest lead, not a verified guide. Skills, numbers and interactions can change with every patch.
Core skills
Only skills named in public sources. Nothing is filled in to make the build look complete.
The developer used the name in a public comment asking to fix its graphics.
A physical attack named in a community post; single-source, unverified.
How it plays
The evidence supports a Necromancer with at least one spell and one physical attack. That suggests a hybrid shell: a spell for clear, a physical hit for single target, or the reverse.
No one has published a tree, support links or a full run. This page is a lead, not a rotation.
Strengths
- Deathcoil is the best-corroborated skill name in the Necromancer kit.
- A spell plus a physical attack gives the class two possible damage lanes.
- Useful starting point for testing hybrid scaling.
Weaknesses
- No gameplay clip dedicated to the build.
- Reap is single-source.
- No tree, supports, gear or boss footage.
What to verify
- 01 Is Deathcoil a projectile, beam, nova or damage-over-time spell?
- 02 Does Reap generate a resource or consume one?
- 03 Do the two skills scale from the same stats?
- 04 Does either skill interact with minions?
Gear direction
No public gear list. Identify whether Deathcoil scales from spell damage or physical damage before committing.
Do not assume a caster weapon; the physical attack may want a different base.
Defence
No defensive layer is shown. A hybrid build usually has less room for a guard skill.
Keep a movement skill and one emergency flask.
