Paladin / Necro / Enchanter — The D0 Raid Rush
Razman's level-49 D0 tour — charm, slow, dots, and lifetap through every raid boss except Innoruuk, in whatever gear you have.
Overview
Documented from Razman's D0 rush. Compiled guide, not his official write-up.
The plan: hit every raid boss at D0 at level 49 in whatever gear you have. Charm opens the fight, slow lands, dots roll, and Paladin lifetap plus Lay on Hands covers the health bar. Nagafen fell to a charmed fire giant; Cazic went down to the charm-slow-dot loop with mana drain in reserve.
Innoruuk stopped the run even at D0 — wizard boss, mana detonation, heavy nukes. Everything else on the list went down. Good first tour of raid content before gear and AAs exist.
Stances & Invocations
Stance
Mage Hunter
Incoming magical damage −50%, physical −20%. Every point reduced consumes equal endurance (Strategy-reduced).
Paladin, Shadow Knight, Berserker
Invocation
Recovery
Mana regen doubled and spells cost 5% less mana. Out-of-combat regen unaffected; the regen modifier stays active out of combat even when the invocation isn't.
Cleric, Paladin, Ranger, Shadow Knight, Druid, Bard, Shaman, Necromancer, Wizard, Magician, Enchanter, Beastlord
Arcane Mastery
Spell cast and recovery times −20%, another −10% per additional intelligence class. Detrimental spell mana cost −10%, another −5% per intelligence class.
Shadow Knight, Necromancer, Wizard, Magician, Enchanter
Both casters qualify for Arcane Mastery — the dot layer goes down faster.

Playstyle Notes
Charm, slow, dots, melee behind it, Lay on Hands in the pocket. Take Innoruuk off the list and the tour is smooth. Use it to learn boss layouts before the geared builds push tiers.

Pros & Cons
- Every D0 raid boss except one, with no gear prerequisite
- The cheapest way to see raid content and learn the fights
- Charm plus fire giants is a highlight reel
- Innoruuk says no even at D0
- D0 only — this exact loop does not scale into D2+
- Charm management under raid mechanics is the skill check
