Summoning the dead to destroy the undead, and the legions of the Burning Hells in Diablo 4, isn't the only thing Necromancers need to be concerned about. With their Book of the Dead in hand, Necromancers in Diablo 4 will also need to find Legendary Aspects to imprint Powers on items to improve their capabilities.
This guide outlines all the Diablo 4 Legendary Aspects and Powers for the Necromancer class, including the region where you can find them, the effects on your character, and even the dungeons you need to complete to unlock them.
Update on 14 June 2023: We've updated this article with the latest information on all the Legendary Aspects and corresponding powers for the Necromancer in Diablo 4.
Get ready for Diablo 4 by checking out our early review of the game. And once it releases be sure to keep up with the awesome (and free) Twitch drops available in during the month of its release.
Diablo 4 Necromancer Legendary Aspect Categories Explained
When you use the Codex of Power at the Occultist to imprint a Legendary Aspect on a specific item slot, the Legendary Power will increase. It is essential to note that each Necromancer Legendary Aspect is in one of five categories, namely:
- Offensive
- Defensive
- Mobility
- Utility
- Resource
For example, if you add an offensive Legendary Aspect to gloves, an offensive item slot that increases attack damage, the Legendary Power might also increase for your Necromancer.
