Sacred 2:Revive

NOTE: The contents of this page are exclusive content found only by installing the player-made mega-mod Diablo 2 Fallen.

The ultimate goal of a Priest of Rathma is the perfect reanimation and control of a dead creature, maintaining the purity and properties of its body while releasing its soul to allow the Necromancer full control. When a Necromancer at long last gains this ability, he can truly claim mastery of the Great Cycle of Being.

Skills and Attributes

The following skills will affect this combat art:

• Dark Summons Lore - improves casting speed, allows for modification points. Also increases the minions' damage bonus from Furor mods and armor bonus from the Armament mod.

• Dark Summons Focus - reduces regeneration time and allows for higher level combat art without penalty, allows for modification points.

• Concentration - directly improves regeneration time

• Combat Discipline - will lower its regeneration time if it is placed in a combo.

The following attributes will affect this combat art:

• Stamina will lower regeneration time

Usage Strategies

• Damage is dependent on the creature resurrected. Increasing the CA level of Revive only affects duration, number of souls and target range. It will not, in and of itself, increase Revive damage, unless the Furor modifications are selected.

• Revive can resurrect anything that leaves a corpse when it dies, even friendly animals or NPC's. This interesting to see but they are useless as minions because they rarely fight.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Minions to do the Necromancer's bidding
• Can function as killers or simple meat shields

Cons

• Does not work on Energy type enemies because they leave no corpses
