A certain level of Religion is required to become a Necromancer.The Priest class will help out with this.

The bonus in Magic is also nice,seeing as its the most versatile Skill in the game.

Fair enough (Priest also reduces the Magic requirement.)

Iā€™m seeing if I can get the Religion needed as a straight wizard. Doing this with Petra as your companion is trivial, of course.

3285

Actually,itā€™s the opposite:she is essential to this build.

If I donā€™t have her,I canā€™t accompany her on her quest to avenge her parents.If I canā€™t get the quest,I wonā€™t meet the vampire.If I donā€™t meet the vampire,I wonā€™t get bit,hence locking me out of the Vampire Lord class.

3286

I know that - but having Petra along also means that getting the necessary Religion is easy even if youā€™re not a priest.

3287

Yeah,Petra does make it a lot easier to get Religion.

So,do you have any recommendations for the starting item? Iā€™m leaning towards either the spellbook or the lute.

3288

Spellbook, so you can start practicing magic immediately (and so you donā€™t have to buy one later).

3289

I see.

If it doesnā€™t bother you,could you also give the choice to pick with the servants,with Petra and your favorite subjects?

3290

Here, lots of options. If youā€™re going Thief-Priest-Wiz, then Agility, Arcana, Charm+Perception is a good combination.

(Iā€™m doing a two-wizard version of this now, and I went Agility, Nature, Academics.)

3291

So anyone who chose Gale is immediately locked out of it? Iā€¦Donā€™t know if I like that. That means I canā€™t have the ā€œultimateā€ built Iā€™ve been envisioning.

Damn. That sucks.

Is there no other way, @Lucid?

3292

If you talking about vampire classā€¦ itā€™s not just about Gale. Everyone, who didnā€™t go WITH Petra at the end of first game locked out of itā€¦ if Lucid didnā€™t gave another opportunity to get vampire bite at the beginning of third game.

Oups, looks like question about another opportunity was answered just in time below)

3293

The vampirism occurred in the past. There wonā€™t be another opportunity to get infected. :slight_smile:

Ah, blast it! Iā€™ll still play the Vampire Lord route, but itā€™s too bad he wonā€™t be my ā€œmain.ā€

Oh well. Necromancy is good enough. Iā€™m going to suffocate Zusak with a spell, then raise him from the dead and kill him again. Iā€™ll repeat this process at least 42 times, since that is indeed the answer to everything. :joy::japanese_ogre:

@Voldy Hereā€™s a little tidbit thatā€™ll possibly raise your spirits after the whole fiasco with the Vampire Lord:

In LH3, thereā€™s going to be a new prestige class called the Shadow Weaver.Itā€™s basically a prestige class for the Theif/Mage build, which Iā€™m assuming is what youā€™re going for. And unlike the Vampire Lord with its stingy requirements, the Shadow Weaver only requires you to have the Cloak Of Shadows.

So you can either be a Vampire Lord Necromancer or a Shadow Weaver Necromancer.At the end of the day,they both sound badass.

How do you know the requirements?

3299

I remeber someone who was on the beta test posted it somewhere.

3300

I finished LH2 being a Sage 2/Priest 1/Knight 1. Will there be a way to become a Paladin in LH3?

3301

Impossible, you need a level in cleric. And thereā€™s only one training session in part 3.

So Iā€™m going to need the opinion of you guys.

Which ā€˜personal questā€™ has the most useful reward?

  • Peter/Petra
  • Gill/Gale
  • Karl/Karla
  • Theo/Thea
  • Jace/Jess
