there's a blood skill with no points in blood at all. Basically a bunch of random skills and no elite.

I'm going to say no

if you're going to have minions on your bar you should go all out death, maybe a few in curses to increase the damage if you don't want to bring a dedicated curser.

If these are your only necro skills unlocked then it will work just fine because it's pve

the second one is ok, but there are better elites than flesh golem, such as order of undeath, this would work very nice with vampiric horrors.

Jagged Bones is the leetest MM elite out there. Discord is the leetest Hero elite out there! >.>

The second build is ok and will probably work with a hero.

I would look at changing a couple of skills as you fine tune it during play.

Firstly while Flesh Golem is a good skill there is a real problem using it with heroes.
If it dies the hero is just as likely to use the copse left behind for another minion type.
If you abandon Curses and put more points into Death you will have a hero that will raise and keep going an army of 8 to 10 minions most of the time.

Secondly you have no way at the moment to heal your minions Either Blood of the master or a Monk area effect heal would keep your army going between battles.
Or you could concentrate the points in curses and just have the odd weaker minion which will have some use in using up the corpse and causing some distraction during a battle.

Generally its better to do a few things really well rather than a lot of things not so well.

i have aoe heal on monk
heal area...

split the spells we both like and join
as a team to combine

Death magic isn't maxed out

Dark bond outlasts recharge without any points in blood magic

Curses should really go on another necro

Traversal why? You waste a corpse and teleport somewhere random.not good(granted after teleporting you'll probably become a corpse yourself)

Giving heros AoE heals is more than likely a bad idea,BotM is enough

Aegis @3 Prot? I cant see the point in that

Imo:rethink this whole setup

Edit:Oh Dear

That would work really well, I usually run a curses necro and let a hero or even 2 run Minion Master builds.

The party warrior rounds up a mob then the minions join in and I am busy putting on Spiteful Spirit, Barbs Mark of Pain and so on.

OANDY8x/Q5BlBWCCNjBahVV7iA That's my current Curses build Its got an EYE skill in there not essential to the build.

OAlCUsx0S1UwRVJDeQVlWo8G and this is what I am testing on my MM necro heroes.
I am always changing some skill or other almost daily.

Good luck

Strength is in numbers.Maxing DM doesn't only allow 10 minions itll also reach another minion level breakpoint

Channelling is meh and it isn't needed if you 12+Xsoul reaping (even potent enough at 12)

Ether Feast for pitiful health gain:Your vamp horrors should easily regain health lost from BotM

Infuse Condition +Foul Feast could be potential replacements

@Gremlin:Hexer's is a waste in that build.There are no hexes,it will end instantly
