The Necromancer is a staple of the Diablo series, and Diablo 4 sees this iconic class return with a whole new bag of tricks for players to take advantage of. The hallmark of the Necromancer is their ability to raise the dead to serve as minions for them as they battle through an onslaught of demonic foes, and Diablo 4 ups the ante for what these minions are capable of thanks to the Necromancer's unique Book of the Dead mechanic. As a result, the Necromancer in this entry of the franchise breaks a huge tradition to become one of the most powerful incarnations of the class.
