They are powerful Sorcerers, capable of channelling eldritch energies in destructive ways, levelling enemy armies with lightning, or summoning ravening swarms of rats. Some Grey Seers ride atop the nightmarish Screaming Bell to unleash untold ruination. More important than their ability to dominate a battle, however, is their role as emissaries for the Council of Thirteen, a position which often grants them the top-rank. Having the backing of a Grey Seer means a clan is in ascendancy, and will gain supremacy in dealings with others. They may barter with the upper hand and a Skaven with an advantage will press it mercilessly. It is always best to exploit such an advantage while it lasts, for it will only be a matter of time before the Seers call with their own demands. In Skaven society it is well known that absolutely nothing comes without a steep reciprocal price. ==Attributes== *[[File:Wh2 main lore ruin.png]] '''Wizard''' {{wh2_main_skv_cha_grey_seer_ruin_0 bulletpoints}} == Spells == *[[File:Icon wh main lore ruin.png|38px]][[Skaven Spells of Ruin]] *[[File:Wh2 main spell plague the dreaded thirteenth spell.png|38px]] [[The Dreaded Thirteenth Spell]] == Character Abilities == === Active Abilities === *None ==== Campaign only ==== *[[File:Wh main character abilities rally.png|38px]] [[Rally!]] *[[File:Wh main character abilities stand or die.png|38px]] [[Stand or Die!]] === Passive Abilities === *[[File:Wh2 main lore passive musk of fear.png|38px]] [[Skaven Spells of Ruin#Musk of Fear|Musk of Fear]] *[[File:Wh2 main unit passive scurry away.png]] [[Scurry Away!]] *[[File:Wh main character abilities arcane conduit.png|38px]] [[Arcane Conduit]] ==== Campaign only ==== *[[File:Wh main character passive evasion.png|38px]] [[Evasion (ability)|Evasion]] === Item Abilities === *None ==== Multiplayer only ==== *N/A == Items (Multiplayer) == *N/A == Mounts == *[[File:Mount screaming bell.png|38px]] [[Screaming Bell]] == Talent Tree == * [https://totalwarhammerplanner.com/planner/vanilla3/skv_skaven/skv_grey_seer_ruin Skill Tree on TotalWarhammerPlanner] ==Gallery== <gallery> File:Skv grey seer campaign 01 0.png File:Skv grey seer campaign 02 0.png File:Skv grey seer campaign 03 0.png File:Skv grey seer campaign 04 0.png </gallery> ==Strategy== {{strategy}} There is almost no reason to ever recruit Grey Seers of Ruin in the game. The [[Warlock Master]] is an overall far superior lord, have better stats in all fields, as well as Magical Attacks, Armour-Piercing and Bonus vs. Infantry. He has access to the full Skaven Ruination lore, with the Grey Seer's advantage solely being in the mentioned The Dreaded Thirteenth spell. Aside from the difference in lore, his Plague counterpart is completely identical. If for whatever reason players are really interested in The Dreaded Thirteenth, but also favor the Ruination Spells, a [[Warlock Engineer]] hero, who has access to the entire lore of spells can be attached to an army led by a Plague Grey Seer. The engineer, being able to found Under-Cities, is an overall fairly useful hero for most Skaven playthroughs and being available at a Tier 2 building relatively easy to recruit. The only disadvantage of the Ruination Hero counterpart in comparison is that he unlike the Lords starts only with the [[Warp Lightning]] Spell automatically known (whereas the Lords also have the Howling Warpgale learnt at 1st level). {{Navbox Skaven units}} [[Category:Total War: Warhammer II units]] [[Category:Skaven units]] [[Category:Skaven lord units]] [[Category:Skaven spellcasters]]
