Hello Everyone, I'm obviously Rahz Zalinto. I play diablo 2 on us west occasionally among other games. I used to play two years ago and i had a lot of shyt, cuz my friend bought it off ebay lol. But all thats gone now and i started playing again two weeks ago, i have a level 87 barbarian now and a funked up necromancer =P. Im thinking about making a whole buncha barbs, one for each weapon class lol, already got a mace barb at level 20 on top of my sword barb. Butttt id also like to work with necro..but only if im gonna enjoy it, and to enjoy it i want to summon things..lots of things =P

Now i was wondering if there were any good summoning necro guides out there that at least 90% of us could agree are accurate and good lol.

every time i read one it sounds good and all but then there are about 50 replies about how much the guide sucks =P.

Summon necros can be very good. Here's a guide:

-skills-
20 Raise Skeleton (You need to add points into this low level)
20 Skeleton Mastery (Make sure u max this and Skeleton first low level)
20 Corpse Explosion (Start adding into this after above are maxed)
5+ Amplify Damage (Start adding as u need feasible)
1 Summon Resist
1 Revives
1 Deceprify (sp?)

-=STATS=-
Enough strength to use your gear. (91 if you are going with the exact build I posted)
25 Dexterity
75 Energy
Vitality (Rest goes here)

-Items-

Helmet- Shako or Good rare circlet
Amulet- Maras or +3 skills ammy
Armor- Trang-oul's Armor
Shield- Homonculus
Gloves- Trang-oul?s glove (+2 curses +FcR)
Rings- 2 SoJ?s or Rare ring with 20FcR +mana
Weapon- Arm of King Leoric
Belt- Trang-ouls belt/glooms trap/arachnids mesh
Charms- As many Summoning skill GC?s you can get

I have been told this is a very good build for summonmancers, although I have never made one myself.

If you think necro's suck you should duel Gimpy's necro.

Come to think of it, that guide has some flaws...

For one I wouldn't max corpe explosion, 10 seems like more than enough.

Putting more into revive and summon resist would seem like a more plausable idea.

By the way if you go through with making one, might mercenary is the way to go.

Maybe I will. biggrin

But about the build. You need to max skeleton mages too. Then work on revive.

For the gear, try to get a bramble for your merc, and get a defiance merc. And instead of using arm of king leoric, use a beast.

This way your summons will have 3 auras; Thorns, Defiance, and Fanatacism. 3nodding

Yes, that works alot better, but not all people can afford those. However if you can then by all means thats the way to go.

like it was said before, 10 in corpse explo is plenty (probably more then needed based on ur +skills). I would suggest maxing skeleton mages. While they arent as powerful as skeletons, they do take care fo phys immunes pretty fast. Pump summon resists until the gains start diminishing to almost nothing (like +1 res per lvl). I made a summon nec on Single Player to test one out, and he was awesome. I might make one on ladder if I get bored of my asn.
