Is it only possible to aquire this skill if you have Factions??? I have Prophicies and Nightfall.

greendc27 · Mar 12, 2007, 07:02 PM // 19:02

Yes it is a Factions only skill.

[skill=text]Jagged Bones[/skill] will make a nice replacement for flesh golem so it's not a big loss.

Roger that I have both and prefer jagged bones.

Heck, I prefer [skill=text]Icy Veins[/skill] over both of those skills in PvE on a MM...Though it's Factions too

Jagged Bones is the hottest choice in Nightfall. Order of Undeath isn't bad...

[[order of undeath] if energy can be managed is good. JB i dont see much use for now that its 15 sec recharge, [[toxic chill] is nice aswell

Order of Undeath is the way to go NF-only. Undeath with Fiends tears through pretty much everywhere. As you have Proph, you also get Aura of the Lich - being able to spam BotM in-battle for pittance health sac is cute too.

I'm totally with you on that one, Aura of the Lich makes a nice elite for a MM too, though i prefer jagged bones.

i like jagged bones because if you use the bone minions which are relatively weak, you can easily cast death nova on it, use jagged bones and then instantly cast taste of death to kill it. you have just poisoned the enemy around the area and a monster that makes people bleed.

alternatively, if you use jagged bones and shambling horrors, you can get two mobs from one

[skill]Reaper's Mark[/skill]

Nothing better then getting ~30 energy for killing an enemy.

trekkie dude · Mar 15, 2007, 03:20 AM // 03:20

but wouldn't you pretty much get the energy back once it dies? that is what soul reaper does right?

widowdaballa · Mar 15, 2007, 04:53 AM // 04:53

Yeah, but that's why he said you could get back about ~30 energy. I don't think my necro has ever run out of energy other then when I first started using him.

If it's a factions only skill, you can't get it. Try to work your build so that it doesn't include that skill.

If an enemy dies with RM on them, you get the energy from RM and SR.

The whole point of it is to spread degen every 10 seconds, and it allows you to spam minions alot more.

i see so RM is pretty much for cursing necros.

I've honestly never needed the energy given by RM on a MM.

Thats why I use Icy Viens on my MMs, gives that monster damage, then when my minions own the monster, it causes a bit of AoE damage.
