At long last 2.0 is out, and with it come 9 new skills with custom made icons to enrich your necromancer playthrough!
The goal is to make pure necromancy builds more viable in the early-mid game reducing the need to rely too much
on other types of skills and/or respecing before having access to Grasp of the Starved, while also expanding on choice
in the late game, with new and powerful abilities.
