The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom Introduces New Arcanist Class, Zones, & More for Tamriel’s Adventurers
Master the new Arcanist class as you explore mainland Morrowind’s eastern coast in The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom!
Announced as part of the Developer_Direct and ESO Global Reveal, The Elder Scrolls Online: Necrom arrives June 20 on Xbox consoles. ESO’s biggest release of 2023 introduces a new class, zones, and storyline for you and your fellow adventurers to learn, explore, and discover.
Wield the Power of Oblivion
Necrom introduces an all-new class -- the Arcanist -- which allows you to master three new skill lines (Herald of the Tome, Curative Runeforms, and Apocryphal Soldier). Each new skill line draws from Oblivion to help you deal damage, support your allies, and absorb punishment. As an Arcanist, you can call upon Runeblades, which launch Oblivion-empowered projectiles at your foes, or the Apocryphal Gate, which summons a portal to assist your party’s mobility.
With the Arcanist’s new Crux system, you can use select Arcanist abilities to generate a new resource called Crux that you can then spend to empower other abilities. How you spend your Crux can make a big impact on the way you play your Arcanist, and those that take the time to truly master all the Lord of Knowledge’s gifts can become truly formidable.
Explore New Worlds
Necrom also introduces two new zones for you to explore. Situated along the eastern coast of mainland Morrowind, the Telvanni Peninsula is home to the mysterious mages of House Telvanni and the great city of Necrom. For the first time since The Elder Scrolls: Arena, you can walk the solemn streets of this Dark Elf spiritual center.
In addition, this Chapter unveils Apocrypha, Hermaeus Mora’s realm of Oblivion. Do you dare venture deep into the Daedric Prince of Knowledge’s world to discover the mind-bending wonders of the Endless Library and even stranger locations?
Both zones feature their own quests, NPCs, challenges (such as world bosses, delves, public dungeons, a Trial, and an all-new kind of world event), and rewards -- including new achievements, titles, item sets, collectibles, and more. Necrom also introduces two new companions to join you in your adventures, a Redguard Arcanist Azandar Al-Cybiades and Argonian Warden Sharp-as-Night!
Shadows Threaten Tamriel & Oblivion
Part of the Shadow Over Morrowind adventure, the upcoming Necrom Chapter continues a story that begins with the Scribes of Fate DLC. Hermaeus Mora’s realm of Oblivion has come under threat from a mysterious foe, and the Prince of Knowledge needs a champion to help defend a secret that if revealed could unravel reality itself.
While each release this year features standalone stories, each also builds upon and expands the larger Shadow Over Morrowind adventure. What you may discover in the dungeons of the Scribes of Fate DLC has consequences for the characters and events of the Necrom Chapter. A compelling, intertwined tale awaits!
