Curse

I'm really sick of the generic [spiteful spirit][reckless haste][barbs] blah, blah, blah build, it's awesome, and I see why people recommend it all the time, but I want something different.

I'm thinking of doing some build with [Feast of Corruption] and [shadow of fear].

Or, I'm going to take a risk and run a supportive blood build with [Order of the Vampire], [Strip ench] , [dark fury], [blood ritual], etc.

[Order of the Vampire] bites compared to [Order of Pain] simple as that. It has the same amount of damage but is an elite, and doesn't stack with [Dark Fury].

If you're looking for something more 'supportive' you could try something with Dark Fury+Order of Blood, Splinter Weapon, AR, BR, and whatever else you want. Just bring lots o physicals.

Haven't tried it myself, but from the replies to it....sounds pretty fun.

and aren't explosions supposed to be fun?

Moloch's AP curses build is great too, but you need a physical heavy team.

I tried out blood again, and it's just as horrid as I remember. I'm currently looking at [Corrupt Enchantment]. How would one create a build around this skill?

la_cabra_de_vida · Jul 23, 2008, 12:24 AM // 00:24

[icy vein's][rising bile][putrid bile][putrid explosion]

Bile bombs do some nice damage with aoe.

If you want a blood build, this isnt half bad:

[ancestor's rage][splinter weapon][well of power][strip enchantment][order of pain][blood ritual][signet of lost souls][resurrection signet]

Moloch Vein · Jul 23, 2008, 12:29 AM // 00:29

I would like to reiterate that Icy Veins sucks.

Turbobusa · Jul 23, 2008, 07:37 AM // 07:37

I would second that, and add that Rising bile isn't so great either since you have to wait 20 seconds for it to have an effect, and by the time half the mob will be dead. Or the target ran out of range.

Icy veins is gold in lvl <20 areas, otherwise it is way, way too much affected by armor.

No its a pretty useless skill in pve. FoC is weak compared to SS so I would only bring it if you have another SS in your party. Most of the other curses elites are useless. Maybe you could bring weaken knees in areas where those stupid enemy monk healers won't stand still and your melee guys are having a hard time hitting it. Spoil victor is always a good option in HM areas or on bosses along with other support skills and maybe even prot. If you're not looking at minions, discord can provide decent damage along with putrid bile and putrid explosion. There are plenty of options for builds, just create your own and see what works.

OMFM · Jul 23, 2008, 08:18 PM // 20:18

[Well of Blood][Aura of the Lich][Blood Renewal][Dark Fury][Order of Pain][Masochism][Blood Ritual] last skill can be a ress or anything you choose.

Karate Jesus · Jul 24, 2008, 07:51 PM // 19:51

If you want to use FoC in PvE I would recommend this build:

http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:N/..._of_Corruption

It's good for a general curse/interrupt bomb.

However, my new favorite PvP necro build is this:

http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:N/E_Discord_Necro

It's still being tested, but it works well in AB if you replace the rez with Armor of Mist

Snow Bunny · Jul 24, 2008, 07:54 PM // 19:54

Being an orders nec and bringing earthshaker warriors means you can annihilate anything. Just my non-humble opinion.

Bob Grunter · Jul 27, 2008, 11:41 PM // 23:41

ive actually found some of these builds fun, now i can actually play my necro without being bored
