✎ Stats Progression

Level 1: 14 INT, 12 CON, 2 Summoning, 2 Warfare, Lone Wolf
Level 2: 16 INT, 12 Memory, 2 Necromancer
Level 3: 18 INT, 14 Memory, 4 Summoning, 2 Pyro. All Skilled Up
Level 4: 20 INT, 16 Memory, 6 Summoning
Level 5: 24 INT, 8 Summoning
Level 6: 28 INT, 10 Summoning
Level 7: 32 INT, 2 Scoundrel
Level 8: 36 INT, 4 Warfare, Savage Sortilege
Level 9: 40 INT, 18 Memory, 1 Poly

Level 12: 24 WIT, 20 Memory, 3 Poly
Level 13: 12 STR, 22 Memory, 2 Hydro, Executioner

★ If you ran as Elf in early game, make sure to raise CON higher accordingly to Flesh Sacrifice negative -CON, so their shields don't fall off. Otherwise 12 CON is enough for other races in early game stage.

➤ RESPEC

✦ All Skilled Up → Elemental Affinity (10 - 2 Summoning = 8 Summoning)
✦ 8 Summoning → 0 Summoning = 4 Combat Points (CP)
✦ 3 CP → 6(new) + 4(before) = 10 Warfare / 1 CP → 2 Two-Handed

Level 14: 26 WIT, 24 Memory, 4 Two-Handed
Level 15: 32 WIT, 4 Poly
Level 16: 30 Memory, 5 Poly

Level 19: 16 STR, 4 Scoundrel
Level 20: 20 STR, 6 Scoundrel
Level 21: 24 STR, 8 Scoundrel

★ Remember you only need enough points to reach the requirements to use the skills, so if your gear happen to cover those requirements such as Necromancer, Hydro, Aero,...etc you can relocate and put the base points into more the global damage modifier skills instead for maximized damage: Warfare → Two-Handed → Scoundrel → Huntsman.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

✎ Abilities Setups

Powerhouse Build: capable of solo the game without using Cloak or Uncanny Evasion by utilizing Summoner strength early game to deal consistent damage and cover Necromancer lack of offense spells early on. Character can clear early to mid game handily and stay safe behind the shield durability / pets while blasting their spells.

Once level 13, when the character is decked out with enough offense Necromancy, they can switch out their shield and equip a Two-Handed to increase damage output with more global damaging modifier, essentially having 4 beneficial skills: Warfare, Two-Handed, Scoundrel, Huntsman. While adding more AoE Crowd Controls & defense / utility spells. and start blasting their way to end game.
Elemental Affinity: this build uses mainly Necromancy spells, so by standing on blood surfaces the character can get -1AP less cost on those spells.
You can either use Blood Rain to create and prep before battle or in combat to generate blood surfaces or if the character is an Elf, they can create blood surfaces on themself with Flesh Sacrifice.

✦ Early Setup (1~8)

Bouncing Shield Throw shield at enemy & bounce to one nearby target. Damage based on your shield physical armour.
Summon Incarnate: call an Incarnate to fight alongside you, once reached 10 Summoning it will be upgraded into a Champion version. Due to it long duration of 10 turns, player can pre-summon the Incarnate before engaging a battle.
Cast on a blood surfaces for Blood Infusion Incarnate, which grants damage bonus and armours.
Elemental Totem: You can summon Wood Totem (Normal surface) or Blood Totem (Blood surface). Both deal physical damage on attacks, while Blood Totem attacks can also set Bleeding status on target. It's recommended to summon a totem each turn for consistent damage from them.
Farsight Infusion: boost magic armour and 25% damage bonus for your Incarnate. Unlock a ranged attack which has 1 turn-cooldoon allowing him to attack enemy from range each turn.
Mosquito Swarm: Ranged physical attack, that will heal yourself based on the damage dealt to the target. It also set Bleeding status for 2 turns.

Save and stack possible Decaying Touch scrolls, it sometimes appear on vendors. These scrolls cost 1AP to use by default without relying on Elemental Affinity and as a scroll, it doesn't have any cooldowns.
Blood Sucker (optional): Target character consume blood surfaces to restore Vitality, the more blood, the more healings. You can use it offensively on enemy that has Decayed status to deal strong single target damage.

Bloated Corpse: Summon a chubby corpse by your side, it can attack one before exploding strong area damage & create a huge blood pool. You can charge it with Supercharger to get a +100% dmg boost on it explosion. Recommended to pre-summon the chubby guy and send it to explode on unsuspected enemies to start the battle with a boom!
Teleportation: teleport enemy or corpses into desired place. Rely on the teleportation glove early on so you don't have to put points into Aero so soon.
Power Infusion: boost physical armour and 25% damage bonus. Unlock Whirlwind and Rush (Battering Ram) which can knockdown vulnerable enemies.

Adrenaline: Gain 2 AP for this turn but lose 2 AP on the next turn ( a tradeoff), use it when you need to confirm a kill to trigger Executioner talent and get a bonus of 2AP or when you really need to setup some defensive buffs or just simply want to finish off some high threat targets.
Cloak & Dagger: a jumping ability. Use Tactical Retreat instead if you just happen to get enough Huntsman requirement from gear.

@Setto : sin tee made a 4 player party version of this build called Crimson Queen. It wrecks everything especially in a full physical party (Eternal Hunter, Dragon Slayer, Night Fury, Crimson Queen). To be honest, a full physical party is insanely strong but kind of boring though...

Setto 27 dec, 2024 @ 21:12

Is this build possible for non-LW parties?

Archwill 14 sep, 2024 @ 6:06

Bless you dude, i really like the build

siuzen94 31 jul, 2024 @ 21:01

That is because Necromancy damage scales with INT.

vanderveckensmith 25 jun, 2024 @ 16:00

Can anyone explain why this build boosts INT when that appears to not be useful for summoning? Until the respec at level 13, you're a Summoner.

DUCK STALKER 11 jan, 2024 @ 17:36

Very fun build!
Just a small note: two handed weapon dmg does nothing for spells, so you can go with full scoundrel and get more movespeed and same dmg!

SuedDuke 5 dec, 2023 @ 3:31

This build has been amazing on my tactician playthrough so I'm thinking of trying honour mode next

yacomain 16 mar, 2023 @ 17:14

I'm looking foward to try this build but with an extra lone wolf ally (mainly because i'm achievement hunting). What other class would you recommend? Obviously a psychal damage dealer one (not that it looks like I need more damage but...) Also, in a 2p party, do you still recommend going the summoner route early on?

Nice guides!

Tomasety III 30 okt, 2022 @ 3:18

I'm through half way to my 4 party man Honour gameplay but I was really curious about Lonewolf characters and stumbled upon this build. It certainly looks quite fun and have brought me light upon certain spells I had completely neglected on my current playgame.

Thank you so much for your Honour guides/nuils, they are really helpful.

Only one question remains Lost Sinner. Which 2 Lone wolf duo do you think work best for a possible duo Honour gameplay?
I think I prefer physical damage over magical given the fact that some enemies have either immunities or high elemental resistances.

Unimax 16 jul, 2022 @ 18:42

why yo use 2H weapon instead of 2x good +3 int wands
