Description
[edit]The Dark Necromancer is a summoner enemy that only appears in the Legion and Juggernaut challenges, if the map chosen does not have the Enemies Beta modifier. It also appears in the Sandbox mode exclusive Legacy Fallen and Golden modes. It used to appear in Fallen mode, though it has been replaced by the Fallen Necromancer after its rework in August of 2024.
While the Dark Necromancer is slower than the Heavy, it has somewhat high health, more than the Abnormal Boss. Additionally, it can summon multiple enemies every few seconds, in groups of four. These enemies are the Abnormal, Quick, Heavy and Shadow. When Polluted Wasteland was in the game, the Dark Necromancer did not spawn the Heavy, and instead spawned the Radioactive.
The Dark Necromancer can be spawned from the Mystery Boss upon its death in Legacy Fallen mode and Golden mode.
The Dark Necromancer is replaced by the (Enemies Beta) Necromancer in any map with the Enemies Beta modifier active.
Appearance
[edit]Strategy
[edit]- The Dark Necromancer can be a slight threat when it first appears. Towers like the Minigunner, Ace Pilot, Shotgunner and Cowboy can easily wipe out the Dark Necromancer and its summoned enemies.
- High DPS towers like the Accelerator or Turret can also be used, though they are quite expensive to upgrade.
- You can set these towers to target Strongest so that they will target the Dark Necromancer first, before moving onto its summoned enemies, although this is not required due to the lack of health its summons may have.
- Area of effect towers, like the Mortar, Rocketeer, Gladiator or Electroshocker can be quite useful as they can both damage the Dark Necromancer and the enemies it summons.
- Do note that you do not earn any money from the summoned enemies.

[edit]Trivia
[edit]- The staff wielded by the original Dark Necromancer was a re-textured version of the Zombie Staff gear from the Roblox catalog.

- A statue of the Dark Necromancer could be seen on one of the cliffs in Trick or Threat Town.
