I've been playing around with the more "casual" side of PvP and loving it. There is however something that's left me completely perplexed about Necromancers - specifically regarding the raising of minions on the Fort Aspenwood map:

I've noticed several times now that some necro's are able to raise master-less minions instantly upon any death, (player or NPC), without limit and seemingly across the entire map. What especially made me curious, was when a bunch of Luxon warriors stormed in and with some Turtle bombardment thrown in the mix, killed an allied player with no enemy player in sight and a master-less minion was raised instantly.

I've been looking around for this skill, but I'm completely at a loss. I know of "Malign Intervention", but I made pretty sure to keep close attention to what's on me when I died ... and this wasn't it. Also, when multiple allies died (e.g. in AOE), multiple master-less minions seems to be raised, again, instantly and across great distances it seems. Also, it's not "Aura of the Lich" (the distance is too great/minions are master-less), plus the way I've been observing it, the reaction (and skill) time to activate a summoning skills like this makes it impossible to do it manually. An aura perhaps? Or enchantment?

I would very much appreciated if someone could help me out with some info here.

Maybe it's in combination with another profession's skills?

Ah! Thank you

Yes, indeed it's Minion Apocalypse. I just noticed the environment effect icon when I was playing the map. Thanks again
