quick answer to your question: newb island is where u can solo w/ mm.

this is the example of what i mean by newb question

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Build:N/Mo_Boss_Farmer

u can't solo anything with mm build unless you have corpses. you can't have corpses unless you've killed a few mobs or sac your heroes, which u can't solo by yourself.

to make my post more productive and helpful, I'll leave an idea:
a contagion or virulence oriented build with some side minion support. although it might be a cluttered build being both condition degen and mm: good at neither.

take a low level pet.
get him killed.
raise minion, res pet.
repeat.

You could also use heroes to make some corpses, then flag them off while you go off and farm with your army.

The above things work but they r rather time consuming. Just stick with other solo builds. MMs cant solo efficiently.

When farming low level area's for specific items, I farm with my MM becouse its quick and easy, and I just use a pet to create the first corpses. Just spamming bone fiends works great against huge numbers of gargolyes (cough, wintersday, cough).

Necro has tons of solo builds. If you wanna incorporate minions (although not many) you could try this: [skill]Discord[/skill][skill]Enfeeble[/skill][skill]Parasitic Bond[/skill][skill]Insidious Parasite[/skill][skill]Animate Shambling Horror[/skill][skill]Consume Corpse[/skill] and possibly blood of the master and some cheap self heal? Sig of Lost Souls? /W healsig?
Not my build (itsa slightly modified gvg build from someone I enjoy watching)

edit, yup yup I know discord got nerfed, I still feel its enough damage to be viable anyways (at least for farming)
