Default Necromancer Exclusive - Damage Build...

Hi there.

I really enjoy the Necromancer class.

I'd like to throw this out to those who have unlocked all the Necromancers Skills: Build a damage dealing necromancer.

The reason i ask, is that most damage builds will inadvertantly included the necro sustaining himself, ie though Vampiric touch/gaze or life leaching abilities.


Certainly a minion master who keeps his minions alive could be viable.

But consider just direct damage, though necromancer abilities.

This is what i do in combat (i have yet to unlock all abiliites)


Life leach to start combat, gives me +3 regen -3 regen to my enemy.
Vampric Gaze (better energy cost than touch)
And then its anyones game... depending if i'm fighting a monster 1 on 1, or a group, i'd use different skills.

So the challenge, build a Damage Dealing Necro, either for 1 on 1, OR for 1 vs Groups. (close together, thinking PVE here)

Cheers and good luck !

oh, and don't forget, only 1 elite skill allowed per skill set

Not much of a challenge...

problem is, is this a pure necro class with no secondary? if so...

10+2 Death magic
11+1 Soul reaping
11+1 Blood Magic

Curses doesn't do much in terms of MASSIVE dmg but this build will work if u want to do TONS of dmg... however, there are other class that can do more but these skills should do it (note, these skills all on ur skill bar aren't guarunteed to work perfectly but these are high dmg for a necro at least)

Deathly Swarm
Vile Touch
Agonizing Touch
Dark Pact
Vampiric Gaze
Mark of Subversion/Soul Leech (whoa, disruption time)
Shadow Strike
Deathly Chill

Using Shadow Strike + Deathly Chill the moment the battle starts should REALLY hurt if they're not anticipating it. Against casters, u can hammer them with dark pact + Mark of Subversion/Soul Leech. Deathly Swarm will hurt groups. Vamp Gaze and Shadow Strike can keep ur hp healthy but shadow strike only works on healthy enemies.

Not a perfect build but I think it's dmg worthy.

should u be using dark aura with this build and take out deathly chill or shadow strike ... it adds more dmg
