Partners and alternatives

Necromancer: Relative partner fit #1 of 37 (Cursed Pirate)

Cursed Pirate applies Cursed Doubloon (Cursed Doubloon, Cursed Form), Powder Keg (Powder Keg, Powder Keg); their recorded effects add pressure and control windows to Necromancer's existing routes.

Cursed Pirate adds Cutlass Strike (7 damage, normal), X Marks the Spot (6 damage, undefendable) as an attack route; this concrete damage line attacks through a different route alongside Necromancer.

This is already the best partner choice for Cursed Pirate.
