How much strength?

[Brandin]

Please forgive me for being a noob again, I used to know these things. But then again that was in like 2002, so I suppose time has taken it's toll.

I've started playing again mostly for something to do while waiting for WotLK/SC2/D3 since WoW has been insanely boring for the past 6 months. I decided to hop in with a Necro for fun, but last I played their DD spells were useless and it was all about MM + CE.

I'm working on a Bonemancer focus, since I hear that works these days, heavy investment in bone spear/bone spirit, and am wondering how much strength I need for the gear to support it...guides have said between leaving it at 15 and raising it to 106. I'm trying to get a general idea of what I should be doing with it considering I'm not planning on being the perfect dueler or anything but would like to be effective. Any advice would be much appreciated, thank you in advance.

I should mention I'm playing on b.net with the new ladder on patch 1.12.

enigma in spirit shroud or such for a low str req, once you wear it your str gets boosted like hell, and if you get Torch/anni its boosted even more... all depends on gear basically

^ Dusk Shround you mean ^_^

But the strength requirement for that is 77(I think), Should be easy to get without investing any points, if you're ladder you might have to spend a little more if you don't have anni/torch.
