Curse

So I've been PvEing on my ritualist and had FINALLY gotten Master of Whispers.
Things were all going fine and smooth, however, I had noticed one 'itty little problem when I was trying to construct builds:
What can my 3rd necro even do? It's not like curses even synegizes with a ritualist.

Livia is healing and Olias is Minion master bomber. While I'm a spirit spammer.
What synergy can there possibly be left that a 3rd hero can do?
Perhaps RoJ since it is strong even with the nerf?

But I've been thinking of using a physical hero of some sort and abusing splinter weapon on him for Barrage or Incendiary arrow builds, as well as interrupts.
Problem? I'm really not sure if I can "pew pew pew" enough, or if the ai is even smart enough to spam aoe arrow shots when necessary.

So then I thought maybe a hundred blades hero with interrupts could be good. But I have yet to try it.

Can I have some feedback or ideas of what role I should have a 3rd hero be, if I am a ritualist with a MM Bomber and Healer hero?

run discordway.

Just use the three hero necro builds.

I use a spirit spammer build and discordway works well with it. Add in one or two melee, monk, and random henchmen and you can pretty much complete most areas.

Throw in another Spirit Rit. Plenty of spirits to make use of.

However, ritualist heroes lack Summon Spirit which kind of makes spirits not as useful ^^

As for discordway, I thought of running it, but I want to know what my other options are first and if something else may work out.

If you know about Discordway, chances are you know about sabway as well. Those are the 2 best (imo) options for running 3 necros, and they work well almost independent of your own build.

in case you didn't know about sabway.

discord and sabway got me 26 (well most of them anyway) titles with ease and i highly recommend both, leaning more toward discord in most areas.

Use a hammer koss, with assassin secondary, deaths retreat, and death's charge, to help him stay alive, devastating hammer is nice :P

Judging by how the heroes he mentioned in opening post were a bomber, a N/Rt Resto, and a Curses which doesn't synergize with Spirit Spammer, I think he knows of Sabway

So true, they fail at anything that has to do with melee.

Guys, what kind of 3rd necro build can be made out of a +1+1 curses and +2 death magic?

Blasphemy!!! D:

Discord isn't some crappy ranomway, player build is very important, you must run AP > YMLaD! > EVAS > FH! or your spikes are going to bbe majorly underpowered.
