What guides written while Vanguard was running recorded for this ability. Kept beside the current figures rather than replacing them — the game was rebalanced across its life, so both are right for their own year.

Notes

Self

Granted by The Art Of Death, a level 20 quest from Master Vallexx deep inside Kalendra's Coven in north-east Qalia. He feigns death in front of you at the end; the quest only completes if you wait for him to get up and speak to him again. Walkthrough from a Ten Ton Hammer guide by Polkadots, “The Art of Death Quest for Necromancer Feign Death Spell”, updated 2 January 2009 and captured by the Wayback Machine in 2012.

Previously recorded as: “Enables you to fake your own death”

This was wrongly set aside as missing from the VGO Emulator build. It is a learned ability, and a learned ability does not appear in the class spellbook until it has been learned — so a sweep of the spellbook cannot show that the build lacks it, only that this character has not got it yet. Rest of the Dead I settled the point: it was marked absent on that reasoning, and a player then finished The Art Of Death and read it off the client.

Read from the in-game tooltip in VGO Emulator, on completing The Art Of Death. Bracketed damage figures shown in game are the skill- and level-adjusted values for that character and are not recorded here.
