My Necro of Awsomeness...

[PBUN]

His name: SKelly

What I call him: Machine gun skelly (Pardon the pun)

Why I call him that:

1) Equipment

Boneshade wand = 25% FCR
Darkforge spawn = 55% FCR
+2/20% FCR caster ammy with resist all = 75% FCR :worship:
2x Stone of jordan
Aracnid mesh = 95% FCR
Skin of Vipermagi = 125% FCR plus more resist all
Marrowwalk (Must I explain why?) :rant:
Magefist = 145% FCR
Harlequin
10x Poison and bone skillers

2) Stats

approx.
120 str. for Marrow's
25 dex. (Base)
150 vit.
280 eng.

3) Skills

Actual points / after +to skills
1/(11) - Clay golem
1/(11) - golem mastery
1/(11) - summon resist
10/(20) - Amp. damage
1/(11) - weaken
1/(11) - Terror
10/(20) - Dim vision
1/(28) - Teeth
10/(33) - Corpse ex.
20/(45) - Bone spirit
20/(46) - Bone wall
10/(37) - Bone armor
20/(45) - Bone spear
33 - Bone prison bonus from Marrow's

All extra went into clay golem to help it tank better. I'm not looking at the game right now to know the actual numbers but those are close.

4) Tactics:

A] Use golem to tank and distract enemies with bone wall/prison

B] Dim any annoying ranged attackers, terror anything that gets through

C] Keep monsters amped so that one corpse explosion can take out a big group

D] FIRE SPIRITS LIKE MAD!! :yep:


That is my lv. 99 Necro. Single player. He is a house and I love him. What do you all think ? :thumbsup:

[Mad Mantis]

You must have played an awful lot to get him to LvL 99.

[gvandale]

Sounds decent, just curious. How many hours have you invested to reach lvl 99 in sp?

Sounds impossible to me.

why 145% fcr?

[Mad Mantis]

Maybe he forgot what the bp was?

[Necrochild313]

Maybe he forgot what the bp was?

Quite plausable, but to add, I like trang gloves better than magefists

Why the huge amount of energy? I think you should've put 150 energy and 280 vitality instead of the other way around.
If he's a pvp:er you will suffer from low life. If he's a pvm:er you will have problems with getting cursed with the bloodmana curse in act 5.
I understand that the huge amount of mana is for the "machine gunnery" though.
One last thing: replace Boneshade with a +3 bone spirit White wand.

[PBUN]

I have played him quite alot... I thought the breakpoint was like 130% or something like that? If It's lower than that I may use diff. stuff. I am quite happy with most of my equip though... :thumbsup:

Any other thoughts on him ?

[Fearox]

Breakpoint is 125 faster cast. 75 is the one below.

[Hypnectic]

all i wanna know is why so much NRG? 280 is way too friggin much

[tremak]

I would think that if you're spamming a high level spirit like that with 125% fast cast your mana is gonna run away pretty damn fast. Still, that much energy does seem a bit unnecessary.

[PBUN]

Sweet then I can switch some of my equip around. I don't remember the exact numbers on stats that is just a guess. I haven't played the game in awhile, but yes I still do run out of mana very quickly. What would be some suggestions in equip change while still staying at 125% FCR ?

[spencert]

U screwed up the build some with base dex and so much energy. In pvm, u should have max block and rest in life. Perhaps some in energy if u are lazy to drink mana pots.

U can replace the darkspawn with a homoculus and get higher block rate and much better resist. Also replace the soj with a 10 fcr/res/life ring. The less 1 skill wont hurt u much but the added resist would be good. Too bad u cant take advantage of the higher block rate with ur base dex though.
