-General Necromancer combat demonstration for the Guild Wars 2 beta event.
The Necromancer is a typical caster save for two large concessions: Death Shroud, and "Minions" (fleeting and temporary pets). The Necro can cast a wide variety of damage and supportive spells, but he also has a separate "health" bar for Death Shroud, which he can enter and exit at anytime, provided he has the resource.
Death Shroud grants the Necro additional attacks, as well as the ability to strategically save himself from death. Minions are fairly quickly disposed of by your enemy, but can be sacrificed for different special bonuses, such as instant health, or explosion damage. Minions are meant to be constantly sacrificed for maximum effect.
