The new update for 99 Nights in the Forest introduces three fresh classes — Necromancer, Undead, and Beastmaster — each bringing unique abilities and playstyles to the survival experience. Whether you enjoy summoning minions, reviving yourself, or commanding wild beasts, these classes add a new layer of depth to the game. Here’s a breakdown of how each one performs and which might suit your playstyle best.
Necromancer Class Overview
- Price: 600 Gems
- Starter Tool: Cultist Staff
Abilities:
- Level 1: Steal souls from dead cultists
- Level 2: Convert cultists and resurrect skeleton allies
- Level 3: Summon more undead allies with greater damage
The Necromancer is all about control and numbers. This class allows you to create an army of undead minions to fight by your side. While it doesn’t have the highest personal damage output, it excels in crowd control and defense. Players who enjoy strategy and managing units will find the Necromancer extremely rewarding, especially in longer survival runs.
Verdict: Great for players who prefer a slow but powerful buildup. Excellent in team modes and base defense.
Undead Class Overview
- Price: 100 Gems
- Starter Tool: Bandage
Abilities:
- Level 1: Gain a permanent bonus every time you are revived
- Level 2: Revive instantly after death
- Level 3: Move for 3 seconds after death
The Undead class thrives on resilience. It’s built for players who tend to take risks or play aggressively. The ability to come back from death gives you an edge in late waves, making this class perfect for solo survival. However, its damage potential is lower compared to other classes, so it’s better suited for tanking or clutch moments.
Verdict: Ideal for solo players or those who want a second chance in battle. Strong survivability, moderate damage.
Beastmaster Class Overview
- Price: 400 Gems
- Starter Tool: Good Training Flute
Abilities:
- Level 1: Summon tamed wolves and keep up to 5 pets
- Level 2: Wolves attack faster
- Level 3: First summoned wolf becomes an alpha wolf
The Beastmaster class is perfect for players who love having companions in combat. Summoning wolves to attack enemies and protect you adds both offense and defense flexibility. Once upgraded, your wolves become extremely fast and powerful, especially the alpha wolf. This class balances damage, mobility, and support, making it one of the most enjoyable options in the update.
Verdict: Balanced and reliable choice for any player. Great offensive pressure with strong pet synergy.
Each new class in 99 Nights in the Forest changes how you approach survival. The Necromancer shines in crowd control, the Undead dominates with sheer persistence, and the Beastmaster offers balanced support with offensive pets.
If you’re looking for raw survivability, go with Undead; for creative strategy and summons, Necromancer is your pick; and for versatile gameplay, the Beastmaster is hard to beat. No matter which one you choose, these new classes make surviving the forest more exciting than ever.
