- Rush. This build is meant to be aggressive, and requires line
of sight for a lot of the damage. Being swift and aggressive may
catch an opponent off guard.
- Formation: R/P in the front, orders necro close behind, monks
in the rear.
- Use Fertile Season when the opposition is
suspected in being a spike team.
- Use Predatory Season at your own discretion, and
only if you think it'll benefit the team.
[edit] Counters
- Mass water or slow hexes.
- Mass blind.
- Support shutdown.
[edit] Variants
- Any monks can go with this.
- A Me/N with fast casting and curses can be used instead of the
orders necromancer.
