FarmingAI Analysis
Overview
A Combat-oriented Pal, obtained through unusual means (Combat, Travel, Base). Has high aptitude for Lumbering, Mining.
Its Partner Skill, Dark Knight of the Abyss, lets you ride it across the ground. It's fastest among ground Pals, making it easy to use as a travel mount. While riding, it can double jump, making it easy to clear ledges and cliffs.
Put it in your party and make it your main combat unit. It can be ridden, so it doubles as transport and a combat unit. It doesn't spawn in the wild or as a boss, so you'll need to look into other routes such as breeding or raids.

Recommended passives
Combat
To build Necromus for combat, prioritize damage passives such as Legend and Musclehead. Adding Lord of the Underworld on top is recommended to further boost the Dark moves it can use at matching element.
Base
To build Necromus for base work, stacking work passives led by Artisan is recommended. Attach Workaholic as well to slow its SAN drain.
Drops (Defeat / Butcher)
Butchering a Pal you caught yields the same items. Butchered Pals will be gone for good.
Innate Passive Skills
Always present on this species. Captured pals can roll additional random passives.
