Three necro heros that are, n/rt healer, minion bomber and SS. Those abuse soul reaping for insane energy management and roll most of pve.

Sabway was created by a guy on these forums called Sab. Thus Sabway.
Sabway was originally a PvP build that Sab modified for PvE. It uses 3 necro heroes to basically steam roll anything in PvE due to soul reaping providing energy.

It is a set of builds that can be used effectively in Hard Mode that was created by a member of this forum with the username Sab. One of the original threads listing the builds and the subsequent discussions/questions can be found here:

Add a necro (you) running Necro bomber based off of [Icy Veins] and you have one heck of a powerful team

3 necros, named after some random guy who popularized it by posting it on guru, NOT creating/making it up.

Actually he DID create... sort of.
Like I said in my post, the build was originally designed for PvP in HA.
Sab altered the build significantly for PvE. So the N/Rt idea wasn't his, but the exact combination that is now popular was.

Atleast get it right guys. More misinformation being spread by people is terrible.

First it was a PvE boss and the group he was with build. Then it got modified for a PvP build. Then Sab took the build from PvP and modified it back again into another form for PvE.

Sab modified the build for PvE. It's Sab's creation.

Secondly, Sab is not some 'random guy'. Fairly well known in PvP circles
