Maximum Raise Skeleton level possible?!

[Warrior of Light]

I assume the fallowing setup:
2+3: Leoric
3: Amulet
3: Shield
3: Circlet
9: Skill Charams
3: Torch
1: Annihilus
2: 2x SoJ
1: Arachnid
2: TO armor
2: Skill Shrine
1: Battle Command

Base maxed Raise Skeleton - 20
+ to Summoning - 32
+ to Raise Skeleton - 3

Level 55 Raise Skeleton Total.
With maxed Skeleton Mastery and 1 point in all other skills it would be:
20 skeletons total
Damage: 1164-1169
Life in Hell: 1550
AR: 1610
Defense: 1610
Resist all: 71%


Is it the absolute maximum for current patch?

I'm not sure if it exists,but a white 2 sock necro head,with +3 to raise skeleton can be made into splendor,for an extra level.

They do exist. Run around act 1 normal for those. I once found a +3skellie/+3mastery/2sock, and ofc it was eth. :tongue: '
Good for summoning them though.

You rarely go melee with your wand. Or atleast i dont. So no durability lost. :thumbsup:

But we were talking about the shield! :azn:

Though, I'd prefer using skellies to tank for me.

Argh, missed that. I thought at the same time on white stats.

You can get +7 on a wand and +4 in rings.

You can get +7 on a wand and +4 in rings.How? Non-Ladder bugs?

[Von Lazuli]

I see +6 on a wand...

+3 Summoning, +3 Raise Skeleton, of course, getting those staffmods is quite difficult...

+4 on rings? What?

IMHO it is impossible to find low level skills on high level wands. Level 1 and level 6 skills don't spawn later in game were +3 summoning is available.

+3 Raise Skeleton +1 Summoning is possible to buy from Drognan in Normal, though. And Leoric's +5 is more.

I belive it was a typo, he probably ment shields, not rings.

[sorcyone]

Also +2 mastery from Marrowwalk, and as mentioned above a shield can get +4 via splendor or +1 summoning and +3 skills although I have never seen either. This would give level 56 skelly and 58 mastery.

I believe he's talking about the undead crown ring, which was one of those .09 items that was around. A ring with all the mods of the undead crown. However, undead crown adds to skeleton mastery, not to raise skeleton, so it doesn't apply here.
