its much better to concentrate on either one or the other, mixing will just make both less effective so your just a halfass necro

true ur minions or ss will be less effecient but if u combine they can be a good combo

Not necessarily. SS itself needs a good combination of skills. Although the skill itself is good, it can't be used in a combo with minions. They're 2 separate builds.

Two problems I see

One: less powerfull SS or Less powerfull Minions

Two: energy managment

To get of 4 SS then start to heal your Minions and summon others where is the energy node your standing on?

Most MM Love having BR casted on them when there are Tones of corpses. How did all those corpses start there death? With a nice big SS slaping them.

In a group you will be more effective realying on a TEAM approach and making it come together.

Only so much energy to go around.

I used to use SS and minions when farming for IDS in small teams. It worked very well (as a N/Mo). By putting curses at 15, I was able to get reasonable level minions, and enough soul reaping to be useful.

The horrors were mainly short term tanks, taking damage and allowing time for the team to do their stuff. With all of the traveling in Mineral springs the short term view of the horrors made running between spots so much faster, no need to keep healing the minions as much, as my necro wasn't just about being a MM, and the horrors were only meant to be a short distraction.

It wouldn't be suitable for all situations, but worked very well in the Springs.

Someone actually posted a similar build for it on this forum about that time, but I can't seem to find it to post the link here....
