How do you counter Vow of Silence?I was out in the Sulpherouse wastes trying to cap a skill with my Necro in Cures and Blood.Those undead with Vow of Silence kept on shutting me down as well as the Eles I had.How do you counter this.

I have a Derv as well with this skill but I don't know how to counter it.

You counter Vow of Silence by bashing them in the face with physicals.

This for [skill]Order of UnDeath[/skill]I tried using the Derv hench and my Norgu is only 18 and my Melonni is 16.I thought maybe when I level her up enough is there any scythe skills that remove enchantments.This is also an Awakened Acolyte there as well not sure about a Cavalier with signet of return.

I was using all the melee aviable to me in hero and hench.

My current favourite ways of stripping such irritating enchantments are Hex Eater Vortex, Well of the Profane and Chilblains.

Done.

If you are a necro - and looking to remove WoS in specific areas - [skill]Order Of Apostasy[/skill].
Since with stuff like Barbs, Enfeebling and Reckless you don't really need that SS.

Also - Apostasy is very nice to bring for the mission where you need to tame the wurm. Since you need to bring horsy with you - make him bring OoA!
Works very sweet - everytime!

If your dervish hero has a flexible build you could just put rending aura on him/her and have the hero grab aggro for those groups.

I heard that [skill]Rending Aura[/skill] was good

Edit: It removes all enchantments, btw.
