a necro/mo or n/rit or a rt/n

Dr Strangelove · Sep 18, 2007, 04:37 AM // 04:37

Necro, no contest

Coloneh · Sep 18, 2007, 05:41 AM // 05:41

not really. depends waht you want to do. If you want a traditional "haha, i have seventy(10) minions! i kill you now." then yeah necro. but a Rt/N can very easily maintain energy while spamming healing, condition removal, and damage on the frontline. not to mention tons of little bone minions running around. I personally prefer Rt/N.

Steboy93 · Sep 18, 2007, 04:06 PM // 16:06

I prefer necro tbh.

Bargamer · Sep 18, 2007, 08:45 PM // 20:45

Rit/N can: Bomb, hex, heal, cause degen/conditions, and still maintain energy. Necros can only do 1 or 2 of those. That's why I bring a Necro hero, and make him hex/degen and bomb. Best of both worlds, yay!

Necros are better at doing a few things very well. Rits are good at being half-assed in a billion things. Depends what you like.

CHUIU · Sep 19, 2007, 10:58 PM // 22:58

Necro/Mo or /Rt can do everything a Rt/N can do MM related, except he does it with 16 death magic instead of 12.

Dark Paladin X · Sep 19, 2007, 11:51 PM // 23:51

Necromancer can have 16 death magic and have up to 10 minions (and in conjunction with ghial staff, a minion master can have a level 28 flesh golem). However, a ritualist can increase the minion's health with spawning power. At level 14 spawning power, a minion health is increased by 56%, but the number of minions that one can control is limited to 8 only and the level is inferior (the Rt can only create minions up to level 16 usually and a level 21 flesh golem). They can, however, be effective on minion bombing because of [skill]Signet of Creation[/skill], but it can be more effective a Necro doing it even with no investment on spawning power. I prefer, however, a Necromancer/Monk, because they can use [skill]Karei's Healing Circle[/skill] to heal themselves and the minions after the use of [skill]Blood of the Master[/skill]. In addition, [skill]Renew Life[/skill] not only resurrect dead party members but heal your minions as well.

[skill]spirit's gift[/skill] heals your minions to. N/Mos dont really have an advantage there.

That is somewhat true, but if there is someone who have enchantment removal, you are pretty much screwed. Also, Heal Area/Karei is better better it heals more, and you don't need to rely on dead corpses on healing your minions.

Necro/Dervish IMO

Coloneh · Sep 21, 2007, 03:19 AM // 03:19

enchantment removal as a counter in PvE is laughable. and your going to be creating more minions anyways. spirit's gift heals all of your minions and melee allies for 100 every time someone dies.

Veripare · Sep 26, 2007, 10:16 PM // 22:16

[skill]spirit's gift[/skill] + [skill]explosive growth[/skill] = awesome

I use my ritualist as a Minion Master sometimes and all I hear from my party member is 'cool dude!'

street peddler · Sep 27, 2007, 07:18 PM // 19:18

either one can MM very well.

gloria vander belt · Sep 28, 2007, 08:06 AM // 08:06

lemme see, i like bot BUT

N/Rt=16 death magic wich produces level 26 flesh golems and lvel 18 minions

Rt/N=12 death magic wich proiduces lvl 21 flesh golems, lvl 16 minions

with the propper necro skills, u shouldnt need any healing from the other proffession's, although ur minion army is more sustainable this way

as for N/M the only time id use this is if i wanted to keep my minion army at top peak for longer amounts of time(wich i preffer in bigger areas), but N/Rt for minion bombing is fair fun!

Maybe [skill]Taste Of Death[/skill] and [skill]Infuse Condition[/skill]

.. using [skill]Animate Bone Minions[/skill] and you have an almost invincible necro who can still upkeep a large army

P.S. [skill]Animate Flesh Golem[/skill] is an aweful mm elite....

glountz · Sep 28, 2007, 09:38 AM // 09:38

Necro is better at MMing. They might be even better at rit healing (see Sab's builds).
Why? Because, contrarily to Rits, Necros have a broken primary attribute, especially in PVE where things tend to die often.

DarkGanni · Sep 28, 2007, 09:48 AM // 09:48

Personally I prefer primary necro as MM.

distilledwill · Sep 28, 2007, 09:53 AM // 09:53

Id say the Necro is better minion MASTER. Higher level minions, and more of them means they are more powerful in themselves.

However, the ritualist is the better minion BOMBER. [card]Explosive Growth[/card][card]Spirit's Gift[/card][card]Boon Of Creation[/card][card]Death Nova[/card][card]Jagged Bones[/card][card]Animate Bone Minions[/card]

makes for explosions and healing all over the place, but less minions. They are powerful more when they create or kill their minions, rather than the minions themselves being powerful.
