Bood Seeker's Aspect and other Necromancer Legendary Aspects in Diablo 4’s Codex of Power

Though we did previously cover the Legendary Aspects for Necromancer’s Codex of Power, some of them have changed since then. This class was arguably the most powerful one in the testing periods, and that hasn't changed much since then.

What you find in the list below is the confirmed Legendary Aspects that are available in Diablo 4 for the Necromancer, pulled from the review servers. Quite a few of them are exceptionally fun to use. Though some don’t drop until later in the game, they’re worth having.

If you unlock Splintering Aspect early, it will serve you well through the initial portions of your adventure across Sanctuary. This Diablo 4 Codex of Power entry makes enemies Vulnerable and makes your bone shards do bonus damage and pierce. As you’ll likely be spamming it a lot early on, why not make it as potent as possible?

Each season of Diablo 4 also brings new Codex of Power entries to each class, and the Necromancer is no exception. Sometimes, these affect specific builds, and other times it’s more general power for the class - something it’s lacking during that season. Many seasons of the game will offer new and updated abilities for players to seek out - as those come to the game, we will update this accordingly.

One interesting thing that has begun happening across the game’s seasons is that some of the new Aspects are only found on Legendary items, such as Aphotic Aspect. Players will have to find the right items, and salvage them, then get them imprinted onto their gear as normal at the Occultist.

• Aphotic Aspect (Salvaged from Legendary items): Skeletal Priests empower your Skeletal Warriors’ attacks to deal Shadow damage and have a 5-20% chance to Stun enemies for 1.5s.
• Aspect of Decay (Salvaged from Legendary items): Each time the Shadowblight Key Passive deals damage to enemies, it increases the next Shadowblight’s damage within 10s by x25-45%, stacking up to 5 times.

I’m a big fan of Bursting Bones and Plunging Darkness in multiplayer settings. Both of them enhance Bone Prison. The first deals AOE damage when a part of the prison’s destroyed. The second throws down a pool of Blight in the prison. This pins down and constantly harms foes trapped within its walls.

You also have Blighted Aspect for your Shadowblight Key Ability in Diablo 4. One of my favorites is Unyielding Commander’s Aspect, which buffs my minions while Army of the Dead is active.
