I've been tinkering with a dual necro strategy, with one doing the awaken the blood and killing themselves with blood renewal/blood is power. Then, the other necro/monk raises fiends, vengeances, unvengeances, and repeats (14 soul reaping makes this possible). Any tips? I dont even know if it is possible, but i think awaken the blood and blood renewal (66% max health) will round off the last 1 health I'm always stuck with.

And let it be known that this strategy was formulated by me and my guild, and if it already exists, that we didnt know about it.

It already exists, although the previous version used a fast casting me/mo to res. I still think it's broken though.

I've seen video clips (Search the web, you should find them) or teams of up to 8 necros, either primary or secondary, doing just what you said. This was in tombs, and they obviously were taking it seriously, but it was quite fun to watch them get what looked like an entire army of minions. They actually defeated a few teams, but they ended up coming against an experienced team and that was that. Warriors made a wall, monks healed them, and eles and rangers decimated everything. But fun video, nonetheless.

Yea, I believe this was a similar build that Lulu the Monk was using for a while...according to the screenshot on some forum a while back. But as stated, it was countered pretty quickly, but that was a lot of minions to have to fight. Best my friend and I were able to do in PvE was I think 20 minions in the desert, he was a Necro, I was a Monk Necro both of us traded off on Verata's Sac to keep them alive, and our third man was a Me/Mo for fast res. It was fun to clear the minataur/griffons but hydras owned those poor little guys.

Yeah, it prolly was too good to be true (about coming up with the idea). Oh well.

Edge of Extinction wipes the floor with mass minions. Probably why this build doesn't see much play any more.

Seed and smite owns the minions, dont even need no EoE.
