{{user commentary|
Necromancy is the basis of [[Necropolis]] faction. By default there cannot be a Necropolis hero without this skill, so if a very important basic skill like [[Wisdom]] or [[Earth Magic]] is offered together with improving Necromancy, ignore Necromancy. You will get it sooner or later, while an ability to learn [[Animate Dead]] and cast it properly won't appear for every level. However, if your hero wears [[Cloak of the Undead King]], expert Necromancy is exactly what you need, as rising [[Lich and Power Lich|Liches]], the only Necropolis shooters with good stats, will make you almost invincible. In that case you might want to avoid battles prior to getting expert Necromancy, as 2-3 level Necropolis troops are significantly weaker than many other units of those levels.

For heroes from other towns, the Necromancy skill is undesirable as Skeletons are weak, slow and will spoil [[morale]], and getting somewhat 5 Skeletons after a minor battle will be a total nonsense. Thus, if Necromancy came to a non-Necropolis hero, a better decision is to reload the game and avoid the source of it, unless your game is dedicated to Necropolis - if so, you may hire a supplying hero regardless of the class, who will increase the number of Skeletons.

Necropolis and Necromancy are often considered to be overpowered, and therefore frequently banned in multiplayer games (and tournaments).
