Necromancer Career | Gameplay Trailer - Warhammer: Vermintide 2 

THE SOUL IS WILLING BUT THE WALLET IS BARREN AND EMPTY

@@Thatonedude227MORE WALLET!!!

These debts go up!

the winter steam sale is on the horizon, truly we will need all our faith and strength to keep our paycheck unspent.

Todays hymnal will be sung to the tune of the laughter of Thirsting Gods

well that and the existential pressure of the world slowly ending as well.

Nonsense. He drinks to be a steamtank!

@@sovietunion7643that’s why I drink

Hold a moment, while I drink...

Too bad drinking lowers one's inhibitions...

Lohner is this you?

At least a necromancer has the decency to use those without breath already.

Necromancer as hero is not lore friendly.

​@@withgoodtasteMalekith the Phoenix King isn't as well. End Times, baby!

@@withgoodtaste the vampires helped the Empire fight Cjaos for a good while lol

According the Lohner's Chronicles, he, Bardin, and even Kerillian stood up for her when Saltzpyre was about to execute her when they found her passed out and summoning skeletons unconciously. Dude knocked the elf out (as is natural), and squared off against Bardin, Kruber came up and knocked him out with a rock.

@@FireOwl_96 It really speaks to how close Markus & Sienna are that he's willing to try and trust her with this after all he's personally been though. One interaction that reminds me is how he & Sienna talked about him leaving the group to form a mercenary band & the only person he suggested he'd try to get to come with was her.

@@FireOwl_96 Then they all damn fools, Salz the only one who is smart, imagine an elf who loves trees and shit, defending a necromancer that make life from plants wither away. Salz was dealing with her unchained shit before, now its a Lore Of Death shit he has to deal with. Any inquisitor would just say "fuck you all then" after that and go away. So when a random chaos dwarf career for Bardin?

Then he puts it back down again after she murders an army of skaven and cracks jokes and insults with Saltzpyre

at a certain point during the end times the empire lets manfred and the vampire counts back into the system of elector counts in desperatation and makes necromancy legal for a while due to things going to shit, so depending on when vermintide takes place during the end times sienna could be considering legal.

@@sovietunion7643 it's not about the legality of her magic, but the mindset of literally everyone around her, as they already told her their opinions on the matter

@@serigala9088And in the actual lore of the universe a ton of wind users go to necromancy in the End Times as a last resort. It's perfectly acceptable. A necromancer doesn't have to be evil. She's also a lot safer in this form than Unchained where she was literally inches away from exploding and become a chaos spawn at any moment. Stop this nonsense about it not making sense and read up on the lore. You're misinformed.

​@@poppinlochnesshopster3249dosnt have tô bê evil.. until their Magic consume them, so yeah sooner or later she need to be put down

That's what I was thinking. The DoT looks like Blazesoul or whatever it's called on Psyker, as well as brain burst on the chaos spawn

​@@s1mp_licity38Sienna had fire DoT long before darktide had soulblaze. It's just a different color. Lol

@SuperCatacata well yeah no shit. I'm a Sienna main and have been playing her forever. I was specifically commenting on the fact that the effect is similar. And tbf neither are unique to any degree because a fire DoT is as basic as it gets for any game ever, and even Soulblaze is just a fancy warp-based fire. The point was to mention the things taken from Darktide in her creation, which is literally 2 things, the blue-green fire, and the brain burst-like effect

​@@s1mp_licity38Like you said, none of it is original. I'm just laying it out there for the swarm of people who unironically go "dey stealing from Darktide hurr durr"

@SuperCatacata Yeah, I mean they didn't "steal" anything from Darktide. They made both, and Darktide is an evolution of the formula they created with Vermintide. It makes sense for some of that evolution to make it's way back into the older game that is still getting support. I think literally everything but those 2 things is wholly unique and that it'll be interesting and new. I've been playing Darktide nonstop since the overhaul update and I'll be taking a break to play this. The only class update I have truly been looking for since WP came out

Well the issue is that how do you wanna make it work? You would have maps then where you either fight ONLY orks or ONLY undead or ONLY rats, chaos and beastmen which would be pretty weird and hurt variety since orks and undead cant work with anyone else

​@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemiTrue, I think followers of other chaos gods would fit nicely at least. Would make the chaos wastes make a lot more sense too with those kinds of enemies

@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi considering end times lore its not THAT hard. by this point in the end times the skaven are just about everywhere or furthering their tunnels so you could have a lot of location across warhammer fantasy and still have the tried and true ratman. beastmen as well can be found pretty much everywhere in the forests and were being influenced by chaos to be a bit more aggressive, the only issue would be that the orks mostly are in the eastern portion of the empire which is a little out of the way for most points of interest. then again it wouldn't be that hard to say an ork wauugh needs culling and lohner decides the ubersriek 5 needs to help. unfortunately we can't have grimgor ironhide as a boss battle because grimgor would make quick work of them.

@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi There is such thing as orcish mercenaries, arguably the fantasy orcs are far more diplomatic than 40k Orks. Key points being the giants, the goblins, the fact that certain chaos folk don't hate orcs and instead see them as kindred spirits. The fact that there is in fact a large population of orcs in the mountains at any given time.

@@sovietunion7643 the are greenskins in every forest, every mountain, every part of the Empire. Just like skaven, just like beastmen.

Ever since necromancer class was announced, I make a point to shoot every Sienna player in the back.

At least from what I understand, she's still technically not a necromancer, she just has one riding shotgun in her head.

@@fwg1994 I dont see the difference

That didn’t age well lol

​@@Hydrocannonthis is what the drg community calls "pointy eared leaf lover behavior"

that'd be legit. Would also be nice to have a techpriest!

@@GraymTrain probably just some novice techpriest with most of his/hers orcanics still intact, little more experienced or older techpriest tend to be quite.... well.... tentacly and wield 4-8 weapons in mechadentrites and possibly some 2h weapon on arms. That reminded me... why doesn't ogryn have 2 handed weapons? give us Crushers Rebar type concrete block weapon or something :D

@@TirehtooriRIP Or just a Skitarii. Unquestioned loyalty to Hadron (x

Tech-Priest class in Darktide? Where'd you hear about this? I wanna read about it too.

Unfortunately, I don't think you'd ever find an individual connected with the Adeptus Mechanicus onboard a prison ship.

Which other games are on this list of yours, if i may ask?

bg3 necromancy's pretty great@@eisenbrecher4001

I wager Diablo 2 is one of them.

Allow us to resurrect fallen allies or rats/chaos and use them, would be cool to have a rat ogre fight for us

​@@eisenbrecher4001baldurs gate 3 lets u use dead human enemies and turn them into zombies, or skeletons

dont know if in 40k summoning things will be looked kindly by the inqusition :,D but well radical inquisitors on the other hand...

@@TirehtooriRIP Depends on what your summoning, there is talk of Angels being made into existence in these dark times. Not just living saints, but more, minor spirits. With the rift, reality is breaking down, psykers require a lower barrier of entry and the stronger psykers can do more. Something similiar is happening to the faithful, as True Faith produces more results.

All classes you mean? Maybe. It's not a last DLC though.

@@XarkoCZI hope there will be more. I dont want this game to die 😓

@@Zargex Darktide's flopping lol Fatshark needs to keep Vermintide alive

That'll be bout $350

That'll be bout $350

The staff basically combines brain burst and assail it seems. Which. I'm here for.

Assail? Why are people pretending Trueflight doesn't exist?

@@XarkoCZ Because this is nothing like trueflight? 💀

​@@cryonesis8070Assail is basically launching each arrow of trueflight by itself plus some erratic movement. So talking about one of them is basically referring to both if you're knowledgeable enough. If people hopped onto the cart with darktide or if they haven't played vt2 lately is phisiologic they speak comparing things to it.

@@dav2490 Idk what that means but I hate darktide and I've got 700+ hrs on Vermintide so I think I'm knowledgeable enough. And we don't really know how it works yet so it might be more like assail or more like trueflight when it is out ingame. I was just saying what it looked like to me

They recicled from both games to save up time and effort

Yep. This is Fatshark, what else could you expect? The great necromancer Sandro with the “Armor of the Damned” and the “Cloak of the Undead King” from Heroes 3? Oh if only!

@@plaguedoctor3970 I see no issue, add all the dope shit to both games!

Necro staff's projectile also seems to work the same was as Psyker's Assail ability

You people are so petty. Literally what is there left to do in Tide games? They put all kind of single target, straight line, homing, cone, aoe attacks in the game already. Go ahead and design a unique abiltity for a FPS game that's not dogshit.

The enemy Skellies looked more like spirits, while the friendly Skellies are physical and may have random bits of armour.

@@datkhornedog899 I mean Sienna and Sofia had them with no armor in the trailer just like the ones in Tower of Treachery. Olesya even mentioned that Sofia will raise army of the dead.

@@FeeshOfTGMC I mean in a gameplay sense, to differentiate between them. Alternatively, they get different markers.

Allow us to resurrect fallen allies or rats/chaos and use them, would be cool to have a rat ogre fight for us

Plenty more to come :)

@@patrikwennersten7568 Have they talked about this? I figured this was the last bit of content for VT2.

@@jeffreymonsell659 Nothing official but I'm a dev so I know what we're working on aswell as the internal road map :)

​@@patrikwennersten7568I'm so excited for the future of Vermintide, definitely my favorite game of all time

​@@patrikwennersten7568you should consider darktide for ps5 just like vermintide is...that way both games get their share of attention and sales

"Can't wait to see what Fatshark does in the future with more Darktide" Probably nothing. Its been almost a year now and the game is still not good lol. Its still an inferior version to Vermintide in just about every way so what they do in Darktide is making it ready for actual release so we can finally move on from beta

@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi You do know Vermintide 2 has six years of development plus they built it on top of the 1st. So even more time behind it and also was pretty rough at the start? People always seem to forget that. Darktide is actually pretty good. Right about where Vermintide 2 was at in it's life.

@@VisionBoardLord *sigh* You sir have absolutely no clue. I am playing Vermintide 2 since release so I can tell you exactly what im talking about: Vermintide 2 launched with alot of new features like the careers and their skill trees as well as useful bots with that you could even finish Legend with when the game was out. What does Darktide do? Ah yes the microtransaction shop worked flawlessly while skill trees only recently got added A YEAR later and it still dont has proper bot support. Performance is abyssmal while visually not looking much better than Vermintide 2. When it came out it lacked EVERYTHING and it still does while Vermintide 2 already had the features, only QoL was missing and balance was too ranged-favoured. We do not talk about the "lack of polish" or some "bugs" but a straight up downgrade from the previous games features in every aspect but hey all that while they told us a big marketing lie (soooo many weapons woowow, oh wait its the same but a flashlight - lets tell everyone its a "different" weapon!)

@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi Sigh, you forget that I played Vermintide since the beginning and the game absolutely didn't do anything well and after a decade of development between it and porting this improvements. People praise it like it never has any shortcomings during it's years. While Darktide has less than a year since it's release and already reaching end of Vermintide 1 quality but hey, Vermintide fans just want their game to keep getting content and act like only Vermintide can be successful under a false pretense that it was always as polished as it was when it absolutely was not. So keep lying about your game. Glad you all have more updates coming but it didn't start out like so.

@@VisionBoardLord Stop fanboying. You are so far in denial its unbelievable. I named you facts and you call that lying to myself? Are you this upset that I hurt your fanboy soul? Listen closely, people do not compare the finished state after so many years of Vermintide 2 to Darktide. They simply see the core features of Vermintide 2 that they at least expected to be present in Darktide, however they are not which is the biggest issue people have. These are core features that are missing but were present on Vermintide 2's release. People want an upgrade, Darktide is sadly just a downgrade with features previously present missing. All that while Fatshark has the audacity to lie to us and shove microtransactions down our throat. How can you say that its a lie that they were saying that an assault rifle and the same assault rifle with an attachement count as 2 different weapons? Or that the power maul from the trailer wasn't even in the game for a while? Or that the performance is abyssmal and the game is buggy ALL THAT WHILE THE CASH SHOP WORKS FINE? You are so far in denial its unbelievable. Vermintide 2 started with all the careers and its skill tree, Darktide needed a year to add them. Vermintide 2 started with bots you could customize and even do Legend with. Darktide has bot support now but its unplayable and they are beyond stupid. Oh did you forgot that Darktide also simply reuses alot of Vermintide animations? Oh and what about a dedicated cast that interacts with each other? N O P E. But hey im just lying of course! Nobody will ever take you serious like this. Fact is that Vermintide 2 had bugs, lacked QoL and had balance issues but Darktide is missing CORE FEATURES that were present before.

It's funny that they couldn't just put a skull on the staff for a Necromancer, since almost all her staves *already* have skulls

Real goths don’t clutch pearls…with their hands.

Why pearl necklaces in particular?

@@G1ingy so it can be easily clutched, of course.

lol I get it

lmao you win

Necromancer as hero is not lore friendly.

Actually, necromancy Is not another normale Wind of magic, It Is akin ti daemonism.

​@@withgoodtasteYes it is, in fact it's actually a canon thing. Sienna began summoning skeletons unconsciously in a trance at one point, and saltzpyre tried to kill her, but was stopped by the rest of the group.

@@withgoodtasteIt is though

No...

You shall stop or i ll smack my axe up your head

That was a good audiobook

​@@FirstLast-wk3kcyes, NAGASH IS ALL AND ALL IS ONE IN NAGASH!

🤢🤮

Yeah, so annoying

You can’t unless she’s dead.

just hope they don't report you to the empire

You god damn right

Or pick at Chaos with a bone.

Perhaps even pick at Chaos with its own bone?

Have you tried heroes of might and magic 3?

@@madtechnocrat9234 I sure have!! Childhood right there.

she fights with 0 fks given

Saltzpyre wanted to off her. He hates it. Kruber (ironically. But i respect him putting his bond with sienna above his trauma) Bardin and Kerillian are keeping him in line.

Read the lore entry on the dev blog and they answer this exact question

If you don't feel like looking it up. Tl;Dr. He didn't. At all. Kruber had to knock him out with a rock after Saltzpyre jumped Kerillian and knocked her out, then squared up to Bardin, knowing the elf and dwarf would take Sienna's side.

This "knocking by a rock" good and all still you will fucking play with necromancer in your party. What a joke.

I highly doubt it'll affect the gameplay (not for the time being at least) but the voice lines will probably be cool

You should try L4D2 with mods, it's amazing.

Probably

It's the alt fire for the staff so. Ye.
