Curse

Well, I've been inaktive with GW for a while now but today a friend of mine bought the game and I thought I could give the game another chance...

*I got inaktive because of all my builds sucked and I never found any that fit me, (into assassin-like-professions in other mmorpg). One of the biggest mistakes that might have been the cause is that I tried to do characters for both PvE and PvP and not with only one purpoise.

Well, and I thought Necro was one of my favorites from earlier... and I also want to be a Damage Dealer, if there is any good ones N/?...

I want to Be Able to solo (hench) as well as being in a party with other, and at same time do something usefull, I'm not that kind of person who just want to stand there and do something that you could have been doing better without... sort of speak.

I've been looking around and found N/E or N/Me could be the ones for this, but dont know which Attributes or skills to use so please give suggestions on builds that could work... And don't just said "use the search" etc. I've been looking around very much, but havnt found much and don't know what would work great or not...

btw. it's mainly for PvE

Thanks in advice
Appoc

Necros are awesome, I love working with a good necro, Doesnt matter which line they are using, Blood, curses, Death, they always seem to add to the group dynamic...Some of my favorite skills are Spinal shivers, when coupled with a ranger secondary with winter...just interupt everything.

If its mainly PvE you can dish out decent damage by going Death Magic with either minions or the large damage from putrid explosion.

Wrath Of Dragons · Mar 21, 2006, 09:32 PM // 21:32

spiteful spirit. probably the biggest damage dealer in the game

Cherno · Mar 21, 2006, 10:11 PM // 22:11

You can also do very large amounts of armor ignoring damage by going blood spike/degen.

I was aware of that, but what I meant was that I don't know which ones that I SHOULD use...

This is the build I'm using of late. I run Watchful Spirit to help with the sacrificing and because I have so much energy coming in from Soul Reaping or Offering of Blood.

you need to read thru the skills. we can give you builds all day but it won't help as much as you understanding the skills and chosing for yourself what you would like to do.

You SHOULD use the ones that best compliment each other, have synergy and will function in the area where you are fighting. I know it is tempting to just come out and ask for a build, but you need to understand the things you put on your skillbar rather than just put whatever someone tells you.

There aren't that many skills to read through and use a modicum of thought process to throw something together.

I find it more productive to respond to a thread along the lines of "I have a minion master build and seems like I am missing something. Here's what I have, how can I make it better?" rather than "Give me MM build, i want to pwn all"

Salokin · Mar 22, 2006, 11:16 PM // 23:16

Well, heres a build i have used on my necro in the past, and found it quite fun...

N/W

Blood: 14 (11+3)
Soul Reaping: 12 (8+4)
Tactics: 11

Flurry
Order of the Vampire [E]
Plague Touch/Distracting Blow/Wild Blow/Res Signet
Deadly Ripost
Ripost
Vampric Touch
Vampric Gaze
Well of Blood

so yeah. I just sort of spam Order of the Vampire, use flurry to get the most out of it, hit Ripost and Deadly Ripost whenever im under attack, and use the vamprics whenever I get seriously wounded. I find that Order and Well increase the survivability of my party quite a bit, as well as adding damage to all physical damage dealers. (incidentally, when using henchies be sure to grab both melees and the ranger) I use a sword with the Enchanting mod and the best sheild I could find.

Ecksor · Mar 23, 2006, 02:58 AM // 02:58

N/Me
awaken the blood
suffering
arcane echo
feast of corruption
desecrate enchants
