Ps: how can you make it easier?! It's my 7th character. Of course there is someone to kill inside, but that doesn't help with the first part, only inside

I have doubts that the Wiki is correct in this case. It's been a while since I ran the crypt, but as far as I remember only the wraiths in the inner crypt (beyond the trap room) are reduced in number after killing said foe, but not in the trap room itself. So I would agree with p4ran0id.

David, can you confirm that the number of enemies that ambush you in the trap room is always the same? If so, I would edit the Wiki accordingly.

Yes, the entrance ambush remains unchanged after killing the necromancer.

FYI there is a really simple way to solve this trap as rogue, took me a while to get it

the best way is to run!
Use sprint and/or evasion and just ignore them and run straight to the room where 'Mighty Than The Sword' ghost is. Most times only 2-3 wraiths follow you, your companion get teleported and you can easily kill them. Also set up a trap at the door, it makes it even easier

Mod Note: Spoiler tag removed. Running to a choke-point isn't a spoiler. Refer to Forum Rule #1.

I feel like my entire understanding of the game has been a lie... I need a friguld rum and a ride on Invisible Swamp Donkey.

I'm doing that too with Sprint to kite Hirge in the narrow secret room so I can let her be in frontline(my reason for doing this is to help me get the job done easily fighting them one by one in a row, to ensure my safe entrance and to prevent repeating the trap room scenario in-case my PC dies deeper in the crypt) but not advisable if it is your first time because the entrance to it doesn't appear yet and if it wouldn't show ASAP then you're screwed.

On the other hand going into the room with Royal Scribe is good enough for the first attempt so I should say +1 to your idea.

You should have asked the grey librarian about this subject. He's a local specialist in Mercia after all ;P
