WoW: What we know about the Necrolord Covenant for Shadowlands

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands introduces 4 new factions: the Covenants. Players have the option of choosing one of them in order to gain powerful powers and allies during their journey through Shadowlands. Here is what we know about one of them: the Necrolords of Maldraxxus.

Covenant of Necrolords

If you decide to join the Congregation of Necrolords, you will receive two unique abilities: a class technique to use in combat, as well as a power that will allow you to move in a special way.

Here is the movement capacity that the Necrolords grant to their champions:

Fleshcraft

2 min of CD

Form a shield of flesh and bone over 4 sec that prevents damage equal to 20% of your maximum health. Channeling near a corpse claims their essence to grow the shield, up to 50% of your maximum health. This is most effective against powerful enemies.

Necrolords Soulbinds

Soulbinds allow you to share powers with a mighty denizen of your chosen Covenant. By undergoing a ritual with this being, you will have access to a Soulbind tree that will give access to specific powers of that denizen. These new powers are earned over time, as you improve your relationship through the Soulbind. Each being capable of forming a Soulbind has their own character, story, and powers to lend.

First overview of the techniques specific to each class

Death Knight - Abomination Limb

Sprout an additional limb for a limited time, dealing Shadow damage to nearby enemies. If an enemy is farther away from you, they are pulled to your location.

Demon Hunter - TBA

To be announced.

Druid - Adaptative Swarm

Command a swarm that heals or deals Shadow damage to a target and increases the effectiveness of your periodic effects on them. Upon expiration, travels to a new target within range, alternating between friend and foe up to a set number of times.

Hunter - Death Chakramaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Throw a deadly chakram at your current target which will rapidly deal additional Shadow damage. Each time the chakram damages a different target, its damage is increased, and you generate additional Focus.

Mage - Deathborne

Transform into a powerful Skeletal Mage for a period of time. While in the form of a Skeletal Mage, your Frostbolt, Fireball, and Arcane Blast are greatly enhanced, and your spell damage is increased.

Monk - TBA

To be announced.

Paladin - TBA

To be announced.

Priest - Unholy Novaa

An explosion of dark energy heals nearby allies and infects nearby enemies with Unholy Transfusion.
Unholy Transfusion deals Shadow damage over time. Enemies who damage this target receive healing.

Rogue - Serrated Bone Spike

Embed a bone spike in the target, dealing Physical damage over time until they die. Attacking with Serrated Bone Spike causes all of your active bone spikes to fracture and strike your current target, increasing initial damage by a percentage per spike.

Shaman - Primordial Bolt

Blast your target with a Primordial Bolt, dealing (65% of Spell power + 65% of Attack power) Shadow damage and apply Flame Shock to an enemy, or (Restoration) heal an ally for (65% of Spell power + 65% of Attack power) and (Restoration-only) apply Riptide to them. Your next (Elemental) Lava Burst, (Enhancement) Lightning Bolt, (Restoration) Healing Wave, will also hit all targets affected by your (Elemental) Flame Shock, (Enhancement and Restoration) Riptide.

Warlock - Decimating Bolt

Hurl a bolt of shadow magic at your target, dealing Shadow damage and increasing the damage of your next Incinerates, Drain Souls, or Shadow Bolts. Decimation Bolt's damage, and the bonus to Incinerate, Drain Soul, or Shadow Bolt both increase as your target's health decreases.

Warrior - Conqueror's Banner

Brandish the banner of the Necrolords, increasing your movement speed and causing Mortal Strike, Raging Blow, and Shield Slam to grant you Glory. Killing an enemy grants additional stacks of Glory. Reactivating this ability plants the banner in the ground, granting an increased amount of maximum health and additional attack speed to you and your allies within range of the banner. Lasts additional time per Glory, up to a maximum amount.

Loot of the Necrolords

Contribute to the cause of the Covenant of Necrolords to win several ornamental awards. For the moment, we only know the appearance of the armor set.
