Aphotic Aspect is a Utility Legendary Aspect for Necromancer in Diablo 4. It causes Skeletal Priests to empower your Skeletal Warriors, allowing their attacks to deal Shadow damage and gain a 5.0–25.0% chance to Stun enemies for 1.5 seconds, enabling Darkness synergy, minion control, and AoE layering in summon-centric builds.
“Let the priests darken the blade."
