Hello everyone and welcome to Iratus: Lord of the Dead! I thought that it'd be a fun time to do a proper Iratus series in celebration of the channel's recent, explosive growth before the Supreme Necromancer returns to his second campaign in Age of Wonders 4 with the goal of redeeming a unit that I forsook long ago. If you'd like to head straight in to the dungeon, jump ahead to 7:40. The Shade has already begun to prove his worth with some reflection tactics during the first Elite fight at 39:53, some dancing shenanigans at 1:04:38, and playing a pivotal role against the first boss at 1:51:12. Whether you are new to the channel or a longtime resident, thank you for watching and for your support -- this series is for you! P.S. I need Shade names for Shade shenanigans that are totally going to work... probably.
Charon is as a matter of fact the ferryman in greek and roman mythology who ferries the deceased across the river Styx, also known as Acheron, to bring them into the realm of Hades the Lord of the Underworld.
@@Fableheim so you nicked his bark and came back, good for you and even better for us. Thank you for your content and the time and effort you´re putting into it. 🤗🤩 edited do to the lack of proper orthography
2 points / 1st spine bomb can go ontop the trap / 2nd you can spam spells more as the shade gives mana even that base lvl burn spell adds up to decent dmg with its dots
Names for the shade, taken from Wikipedia: Itzpapalotl - Aztec skeletal goddess of the night and stars. Metztli - Aztec god of the night and the moon. Tezcatlipoca - another Aztec god of night, particularly of the night skies and night winds. Khonsu - Egyptian god of the moon. Shalim - Canaanite god of dusk. Nyx - Greek goddess of the night. Asteria - Greek titan of nocturnal oracles and stars. Nox - Roman goddess of the night. Artume - Etruscan goddess of the night. Ratri - Hindu goddess of the night. Rahu - Hindu god of darkness and the eclipse. Bhairava - Hindu god of the night Ahriman - Persian god of darkness, night, and evil. Menuo - Lithuanian god of the moon. Nott - Norse goddess of night Hine-nui-te-po - Polynesian goddess of night and death, ruler of the underworld Zorya - Slavic goddess of the morning and evening stars Chernobog - Slavic god of darkness, chaos, and all that is evil.
How about 'Ictus' for a Shade? It means cold, or freezing in Latin, and I feel it fits an unfeeling, desolate, spirit. Another fitting name; 'Tenebris.' Latin for dark, or shadow.
The Shade is a pretty niche but funny minion. I once completed the game with 4 Shades and nothing else. All 4 took every battle the whole way through. I made heavy use of that trinket that deals 15 ignite damage when using single target ability (it is stackable !!). Between pulls, retaliations and floor trap, enemies just melted, almost like the old Lich days and their super clouds!. There's a few enemies though, that makes a battle draw a bit out, especially the self-buffing golems and that Heavenly Light minion (can't recall their name right now) Also, the armor that gives enemies -18 to accuracy was a big help. Rarely did my Shades suffer any serious damage, other than in the start before their evasion is up to respectable numbers. Quite fun and unique, albeit a bit boring, way to finish the game.
Unfortunately, there's not a great answer for the highest levels of Eternal Harvest, but the best methods would either be using magic or percentage based damage to help kill it or to entirely negate Armor or Res with the Abom+Armor/Res removal item, the Fallen Dhampir's ults (using crow paw+spider mandible), or the Lich's Corrosive Cloud.
To be honest i will Always be where for Iratus furthermore ! I will Always be hère when you play the necromancer in any game ... You always pull it of greatly !
When done right, Cannibal Jaw Lich is both an immovable object *and* an unstoppable force. For the record, I approve of any and all cheese strats against the final boss -- they deserve nothing more. {:

Thank you for resurrecting this game. Fond memories.
@@philbear2185 This playthrough was an absolute joy, and Iratus will be returning once again on November 26th! (:
This was a fun watch for somebody who is just now getting into the game.
Hey Fable I just wanna let you know I really appreciate your work and the stories you write to go with them. Every day I look forward to watching.
Charon is as a matter of fact the ferryman in greek and roman mythology who ferries the deceased across the river Styx, also known as Acheron, to bring them into the realm of Hades the Lord of the Underworld.
And that's why Reaper Charon ferried me safely through the first floor. (:
@@Fableheim Did you pay your fee though? 😉😂
@@wilfriedzaulig9818 Apparently not, which is why he abandoned me mid-boss fight. :c

When I was in editing, I was suspicious about the double trap, so thanks for confirming that! (:
A good name for shades is sunglasses.
Hah, I like that one! XD
Nice to see you keeping it up!
It's always a pleasure to return to Iratus every now and again! (:
A new Iratus serie got you an instalike from me, Sir. Keep up the good work!
Umbra or Ombra: This Latin name means “shade” or “darkness”. I thought it would be cool :D
First on the list -- thanks! (:

@@Fableheim can never have too many shades
This is an amazing list :)

Thanks for the suggestions -- added to the list! (:

Huh so this is where this iratus character is from?
What do you do if you want to run a stress damage team on high eternal harvest, and run into tanks/golems/other things with 1k+ HP and no stress bar
Unfortunately, there's not a great answer for the highest levels of Eternal Harvest, but the best methods would either be using magic or percentage based damage to help kill it or to entirely negate Armor or Res with the Abom+Armor/Res removal item, the Fallen Dhampir's ults (using crow paw+spider mandible), or the Lich's Corrosive Cloud.
I took sceleton, werewolf, horse, and crimson phantom, whole game, I fail playing anything elso lmao... xD
That is certainly a reliable team! (:
To be honest i will Always be where for Iratus furthermore ! I will Always be hère when you play the necromancer in any game ... You always pull it of greatly !
Thanks for supporting the channel for all these years! I'm happy to report that I'll be a Necromancer in any game that allows me to be one. {:
@@Fableheimand i'm Always UP for it as long as it is fun for you ^^
i once beat the final boss with canibal jaw constant summon then kill lich, it was just hilarious.
When done right, Cannibal Jaw Lich is both an immovable object *and* an unstoppable force.
For the record, I approve of any and all cheese strats against the final boss -- they deserve nothing more. {:
Very darkest dungeon
My favorite description of Iratus is "reverse Darkest Dungeon", and I definitely prefer playing as the ancient awakened evil. {:
