Attacks
The Necromancer has 2 modes, attack mode, and vulnerable mode. When he is purple, he is in attack mode. You can not harm him in this phase; you must evade his attacks until he turns red.
When he is red, he is vulnerable, meaning this is the time to damage him. Be warned, when he hits half health he gets much faster!

Necromancer has 3 attacks.
One of them is the Amethyst Spiral, where he will unleash a bunch of Amethyst Bolt spells in a spiral. This attack is indicated by purple particles around him before he casts it.
Another is the Electra Attack. In this attack, he will summon Electra spell fields att your feet. It is crucial to stay on the move while he casts this. It is signaled by blue particles around him before he casts it.
Finally, he can cast the Ascendio spell in a spoiral around him, similare to the Amethyst Spiral. This attack is signaled by yellow particles before he casts it.
