Curse

Since the actual Sabway thread seems to be dead...

So, I've done research into Sabway, and I've decided to run it on my Necromancer once I get my new computer. (and I'll just go get Legendary Guardian and vanquisher or something. I'll spend my money on consumables, I guess)

However, since the build itself has 3 Necros, I'm not sure how to make my Necro without overlapping the others too heavily...

Here's my attempt:

[build name="Syria Blackblood" prof=N/A curses=12+1+3 deadlyarts=10 soul=10+1][mark of pain][barbs][rigor mortis][shadow of fear][assassin's promise][Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support]["finish him!"][technobabble][/build]

[build name="Curses Necromancer" build prof=N/Rt sou=8+1 cur=12+1+3 cha=10 res=2][Spiteful Spirit][Enfeebling Blood][Insidious Parasite][Rip Enchantment][Weaken Armor][Splinter Weapon][Signet of Lost Souls][Death Pact Signet][/build]

[build name="Healing Necromancer" build prof=N/Rt sou=12+1+1 res=12][Weapon of Remedy][Weapon of Warding][Mend Body and Soul][Spirit Light][Protective Was Kaolai][Life][signet of lost souls][Death Pact Signet][/build]

[build name="Death Necromancer" build prof=N/Mo death=12+1+3 sou=9+1 pro=9][Jagged Bones][Animate Bone Minions][Death Nova][Putrid Bile][Blood of the Master][Protective Spirit][Aegis][Signet of Lost Souls][/build]

Yes, I realize that there is zero originality in these builds. Whatever.

I plan to equip them all with Spears (except Healing, because she's using an urn) to help MoP and Barbs.

Yes/No/Maybe?

I like either switching the curses nec to N/Me, with either [Power Block] or [Psychic Distraction] and some Dom basics, Emapthy, Backfire and the like, and playing the curses myself, or leave the curses as is and go /Me for the mesmery goodness.

You can easily replace one of the heroes. I typically give my necro the SS build and I remove that hero for something else, like an ele nuker or a mesmer interrupter.

I've done something like this as well, adding a bit more of an extra necro twist on top of sabway. However most things I've tried aren't quite as effective as dropping one hero (SS 99% of the time) taking over that role and bringing an extra ele or BHA ranger.

That being said I still love bringing as many necros as possible whenever possible

You could become the SS and make one necro a [putrid bile][icy veins][rising bile] for strong spiking.
a Player SS could do loads more damage than a hero.
Btw I wouldn't be using [shadow of fear] anyway, maybe [reckless haste] instead.

Maybe run a Para instead of the SS. Take the good stuff from the SS and put it elsewhere (Enfeebling Blood -> your bar, Splinter -> N/Rt) . The Para will go pretty well with your bar, and you can stick all sorts of party support on it.

i ran an ss bar (with some pve skills) and dropped the hero one. then i added a para for support with sor. sometimes an ele, ranger or melee would replace the para in 4-6 man areas.

use Splinter Weapon on the N/Rt Healer, you should run the SS; one Bomber with Icy Veins, Putrid Bile, Rising Bile; Arcane Echo + Feast of Corruption, basically anything, or change one of the necromancers for another hero.

I run SS myself and turn the third necro into an Unsteady Ground N/E type thing, works well for HM because of the inherit IAS.

Washi · May 24, 2008, 02:45 PM // 14:45

It needs more [skill]necrosis[/skill] IMO

Well .... you're attempt looks just like moloch's mop nuker
http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:N/..._of_Pain_Nuker

lol

Continuing on the topic ....
equip just the MOP Nuker with a spear.

I run a necro myself .... and i used to be the SS nuker and the third hero,
depends on the area.
Melee heavy go with a e\rt blindbot chaneller. A bha volley epidemic ranger or a fevered dreams mesmer (mandragorway) will fit nicelly.
An Earth shaker its another option.

Or just use you're configuration .... it seems to work well together.
