Necromancer by a landslide. They just pwn.

this is a matter of power of the spellcasters

example: necromancer vs. pyromancer would mean:
1. fire shield+fire bolt vs skeleton+bone shielt
or
2. sacred phoenix+fire tidal wave vs. shure death curse+wraith army

Pyromancer, as fire is a source of light and would be faster than the necromancer could summon a minion thus burning the necromancer before he even has a chance to summon one undead creature.

You guys need to consider the facts of science.

Necromancers in most mythology are also said to carry books of spells, Instead of just handcasting. Burn the book and he is finished. Necromancy also takes some time to cast, It is not instant as you must first locate a corpse from the underground. Then choose what method to revive them in. After that you must accumulate the spell power along with that you need to gain enough energy to rip their corpse out of the ground (and possibly the casket) and into the earth. You also constantly need to channel life energy in order to keep them alive.

The Pyromancer has to channel energy through his body into his casting part (most commonly hands) generate the energy and then force it out in the form of the spell.


All of this is in accordance with their mythology

|Nature finds a way!
Pyromanacers use natural energy, which is quickly regenerated.
Necromancers use life energy that they must create( Takes a while...) giving the Pyromanacer time time to cook the necromanacer well done!

Neostarblaze7 took the words out of my mouth

Neostarblaze had a big idea with the photos. Cool.
Never actually fought about the speed bonus of the pyromancer, but the necromancer also has curses that use pure magic or dimensional energy, not life

The power of the Necromancer reanimates the dead cells and bacteria that constantly die in a persons body, in this case the pyromancer. The corrupted cells quickly move into the pyromancer's blood stream and form clots in its brain. The massive strokes swiftly deal the pyromancer a cruel uncounterable death.

Yeah but IM saying is that the pryomanacer can roast the necromanacer BEFORE the necromanacer does his curses.
He'll end up like this:

Pyromanacers:

The amount of energy it takes to reanimate a couple of dead cells in a person's body is an insignificant amount. The natural action of cell death death in the necromancer's own body would provide more than enough energy to reanimate the pyromancer's cells. Within seconds of reanimation a clot will forming the pyromancer's brain instantly felling him. Further, any competent mage carries extra stored spell energy with him, necromancer, for example could carry a bound spirit; however, a pyromancer relies exclusively on his environment, and if he isn't sitting inside of an active volcano, he has barely any energy. Also, in the few seconds it would take for the clot to form, the necromancer could shield with dark magic.

Necromancer is rong about something. All cells that die in a person's organism are destroyed completely, especially in a pyromancer's body. Anyway, the dieing cells in the necromancer's body offer a very small amount of energy because they are practically souless. Beyond that, if the necromancer would try to block the pyromancers body with the dead cells, the pyromancer could simply implode in a massive explosion(view death of deidara, youtube), and then reborn from the ashes.

I bet you 50% of necromancer fans played one in diablo 2, right? anyway it all depends on chance, location, and skill of each opponent. if pyro gets the chance to burn the necro before he summons it's pyro ftw if not the necromancer could use the opportunity to summon something behind him. Am I right? these are two evenly matched opponents and so you would have to set up a scenario to find the victor

Depends on the environment they battle on...it could make a big difference.
Different backgrounds can affect a battle very easily.

pyromancer would win easily!
