An incredibly powerful tower, the Necroblaster is capable of destroying a small army of units by itself but comes with the harrowing cost of needing soul energy to fire. This means that should the tower not be making profit from the kills it secures, or run out of energy mid-battle that the tower will become useless and unable to shoot. So long as you can keep the tower fed, it will prove to be an invaluable asset to your defense.
Campaign PvE
Necroblasters smash the competition on many maps that require defense. They excel in the third act of Encounters with Twilight, defending the encampments in Siege of Hope, and even protecting the city in Defending Hope. They can also completely shut down attacks in maps like Bad Harvest.
Random PvE
If you ever need to reinforce your wells and monuments with towers, or cover a choke point, the Necroblaster is perfect for this task. So long as you keep it fed, it can continually eradicate most waves that get sent towards you.
In 2P, Necroblasters can still serve a similar purpose depending on how the map is laid out. But in 4P this tower generally isn't needed as all four players usually can handle defending if required.
