How to beat bone necro?

[IN_FLAMES]

Im a teleww barb, and I always get beaten by bone necros that re-cast bone armor. I tele on them and ww, take out their armor and 25-50% of their health, they tele away, recast and spam spirit.. gg me.

I use

ebotd zerker
enigma dusk
arreats
ss (um)
angelic ammy
angelic ring/raven frost
verdungos
gores
soul drainer
and about +40 str worth in charms
and anni

standard wwbarb build, max mastery, ww, shout and bo..

what do I do, what DO i do?

wouldn't leap help a lot?

Leap WILL help you greatly.

Also if this is Ladder, get a Grief, Grief has a better average damage over even the best ebotd.

Swap your StormShield for another weapon like Beast. Also swap out that verdungo for Arachmind mesh belt to catch up to them when you tele.

Try using dual ravenfrost and high lord's wrath instead of the angelic set.

Also try using the ww triangle on them to get them alwayz in the fhr mode.

That's all I can think of right now, Hope it helps.

ebotd zerker
enigma dusk
arreats
ss (um) <-- switch for beast
angelic ammy <-- Highlords
angelic ring/raven frost <-- fcr ring+raven
verdungos <-- arach
gores
soul drainer <-- dracs
and about +40 str worth in charms
and anni

Leap, leap, tele+whirl and then triangle whirl them (even sucky triangle whirls usually work, they do for me :p). You don't need pdr% or ar vs necros, but you do need fcr and the most dmg you can get.

E Botd is the best we have on NL :(

Anyways, thanks for the advice. Swapped out SS for beast and I usually kill them in the first WW now, depending on how good their bone armor is/how high their life is.

DONT USE LEAP!!!!!!!!!!

im a bone necro,and well,if u do the spitits will gather and hit u all at the same time when u land!!!!

i did it all too often,trust me!

Telezerk works great IMO, just watch out for decrepify and clay golem.
Leap is used for the stun, i think u've mixed it up with leap attack.

You're not supposed to use long leaps. You just it for short leaps, hoping to stun to go for the quick ww kill.

With leap stunning one screen away the spirits won't be able to reach you before you've landed and teleported to the stunned necro
