Effects[edit | edit source]

Sorrow adds 10 levels to Necromancy when calculating hit chance, adds 10 levels to Defence when calculating block chance, and boosts necromancy damage by 10%; it drains opponents' Necromancy when calculating their hit chance by 6 to 10 levels, drains their Defence when calculating block chance by 6 to 10 levels, and drains their necromancy damage by 9% to 15% (6% to 10% in PvP). The boosts to the user are constant, but like leech curses, the draining of opponents must strengthen over time.

A player will gain the same Necromancy and Defence bonuses regardless of an enemy's class, but Sorrow cannot lower its damage or accuracy if it does not use Necromancy. Note that most high-level bosses cannot be drained by Sorrow or any Ancient Curse.

Sap and Leech Curses cannot be used alongside Sorrow.
