View Full Version : A Necro Capable For Ubers?
Is there any type of necro that can do ubers by himself or with 1 or 2 other people?
For sure it's possible with other people, and it's possible by yourself too. Go to River of Flame, or a place where you can raise 20 Uldurs as revives, and have an army of skeletons. This works best if you have the teleport skill, so you can stack the minions directly on top of a boss.
There's been quite a number of threads about this topic lately. Try pressing "page back" on this forum, or using the forum tool and searching up "ubers necro" in this forum.
thanks Jackson I'll be sure to look for something

I've tried twice, but both times Diablo screwed me up. I never died --- i just couldn't kill Diabo.
If you do any better, let me know.
Smiter + Summoner rocks, though, since the minions take most of the damage and the smiter can come and go as he pleases :cool:

Not to mention Life tap that necromancer can cast whenever he wants.
I had a hc necro last season who did this solo.
Pure skele mancer, used trang set {as a staple of the build} + infinty/coh/orpans hat might merc.
Max skele mastery / warrior / mage, split rest into ce & amp, with 1 in decrep and into rest of summon tree.
I used a naj staff on switch for tele.
Just find a game that has Udars in three main areas; river of flame leading up to the chaos sanct. river of flame leading to city of damned. And palace cellar levels.
You will want atleast 4 or 5 of these guys standing ontop of your minions as you tele on each boss.
If they start spaming summons before your lag dies down or before you can lock on to tele, just cast a terror here or there to clear you a path and a little area around them.
Have decrep & life tap hotkeyed and rotate between them every now and then, using your merc's hit points as a base for all of your summons {although they should have much more than him}.
Try to have 2 or 3 poison mages, and lots of cold mages to slow down the summons if they move out of range of the boss. But the cold mages make getting some of the udar class a littl hard.
edit; dont forget to separate the bosses before you even start building your main army. I got a few skeles and meat shields just to tele around the area and put each boss against a separate wall.
And also whenver you tele on the specific boss, dont just sit on his head, your gona want to move off so you wont get targeted.
Baal might prove to be a lil bltch with his knock back thing and tele on you every time you "run for it"
Would synergized Psn Nova with a Zealer or Hammerdin with him work?
Many monsters in there are immune to poison, including the bosses.
I guess it would help to lower regen a little bit... but I feel that a Summoner would be better (if you're looking for effectiveness). But then again.. any build with a Smiter/ Zealot would kinda work.
Ok, summoner it is...once I get my game re-installed I'll test it out and post my results and thoughts...Thank You again
Ok, Right now I'm building a summoner/bone spear hybrid. He has maxed mastery, 15 (soon to be max) raise skele, 1 in summon resist, 1 in mages, soon to be 1 in revives. His bonespear right now is 2kdmg as well.
He is using shako, enigma, homun, hoto, soj, etc.
Would this build be viable for the ubers? He is only 76 right now, so with 10-12 more lvls his raise skele will be maxed, and he will have revives.
Forgot to mention that I'm using an act1 merc with edge + bramble for lvl36 thorns aura.

Also forgot to mention that i will have lvl34 BO the entire time from my BO barb bot. I think that I should be able to do it, but I'm unsure because I'm a hybrid rather than a pure summoner. And I'm a bit scared in HC too =P
To me, the summoner is the only necro class that could do the ubers effectively. Ive done the ubers alone many times, and i try to speed my self up each consecutive try, as to the person who had trouble with uber diablo, hes the hardest but still easy. All you have to do is terror away the pitlords as they come. Just make sure ur urdars/merc are focused on diablo and the pitlords are running in fear. By the way, you dont have to seperate them before hand, and make sure you DONT let uber meph summon, if you do ur setting urself up for a very hard time (his minions come up faster even than the pitlords and do neasty dmg with mephs conviction aura on you.

Urdar/Gorebelly-type monsters can also be found near the Durance of Hate waypoint, if you've cleared the River of Flame already. They're just as strong, since they're summoned at your level.

I had an idea to make a necro using the Passion runeword to enable Zeal. Then equip him with lots of crushing blow; gores, guilliumes, etc.
Get a strong army for backup, cast Life Tap on the Ubers and zeal away.
Might be tough for a necro to get enough AR, but perhaps Angelic/ring/raven combo and Enchant from Demon Limb could help out...

Check out the necro forum. I just watched a movie clip of a fishymancer ripping up Uber-Trist in about 2 minutes. He has some pretty godly gear, but it was a sight to behold ^_^

*whoops - there it is. Look at Foosoft's video below
How do you handle the resists against uber mephi ?
I(sorc, alittle over max resists) tried to help a paladin on my first runs(my own keys). I just watched how the solo paladin pulled mephi. I was half a screen away from mephi, everything froze, i couldnt teleport away and i took damage and died. Mephi fight the paladin, so what was that ??

1. max resist, of course.
2. stay away from boss.
3. smiters use tap, so do necros.
4. lots of juvies.
