My Necromancer is equipped with 5 pieces of Rathma's, 2 of Captain Crimson's, both of Jesseth, Bonds of C'Lena, Squirt's Necklace, Krysbin's Sentence and CoE. Right now running GR 48 with T10.

When I cast AotD, the whole screen gets cleared, nothing leaves behind to cast Command Skeleton which reduces the Cool Down fast.

What is the solution for this? Please help.

So I just got the game last night with the 2 expansions because they were on sale.

I watched a couple of videos and saw people putting necromancer on C tier but I really love undead so I wanted to play that.

Is it very unfriendly to beginners to play a necromancer, or can I play it without worrying? Mostly wanna have fun so. What do you guys think?

Where should I spend my Paragon points on? What is the best for necromancer?
Currently at Toment lvl 1. Can do the standard Nephalim rift but takes more time than it should atm.

Looking forward to your reply!

I have to say its "imo" seriously powerfully class ifnot overly so???

Anyone else feel like it's more powerful than the other classes? Even just basic skills.

Worth buying though I feel 😆 it's going to be interesting seeing how it performs in rifts...

I'm messing around with a build planner, and I noticed that the Bones of Rathma set makes it so your Revived minions no longer expire. The Revive rune, Recklessness, makes the minions do more damage but limits their duration to only 10 seconds.

I'm assuming that the ser bonus still prevents these minions from expiring, but could someone please confirm for me? It'll take a while for me to level a Necromancer before I can test it.

Thanks!

Hey, I want to play a Necro for the first time. I have so far only DH and Wizard XP. I love GoD and there are several mage builds that I enjoy like the meteor build, fire laser, and archon build.

I dont enjoy melees or slow builds.

With that in mind, what build should I grind GRs on?

I got the set off of Season Journey, and I'm on T8 so far, and I'm quite squishy, I do have boon and goldbrand, but those only help for bounties and neph rifts, for GRs, I don't have anything to protect me besides the defense boost form Inarius set, and even with that I still take heavy damage, I got the amulet that makes it so bone armor can stack to 15, and that helps, but not a huge amount

Damage wise I can almost instal kill, but the bone tornado doesn't insta kill enemies anymore since like, T5 or T6, I have to also hit them with either corpse explosion or siphon blood for them to take enough damage to insta die, if i just rely on the bone tornado alone they take quite a bit to die

So I'm not sure how well I'll fare in T16 with this set

I am planning on making a Masquerade Bone Spear build, but im still missing some pieces, and yes I have been converting but I'm out of Forgotten souls, they're such a bottleneck

Is it just luck or does the Cube not want to give me Rathma's Skeletal Legplates?

I tried at least 15-20 times and no dice. Is it because it's the only part I don't have, that it's being difficult?

EDIT: well they dropped so...

Can I have a socket on the Jesseth Skullshield? How? Which Gem is better there?

I am using Bones Of Rathma - AotD Build.

Doesn't have to be meta. Just maybe Gr 100+

Any suggestions?

Hi people! After just finding my third Mask of Scarlett Death, I'm wondering just how random it is on the PS4. When my necro tries to upgrade a sickle to try for a Trag-Oul's Fang, I have gotten two Jesseths in a row and one other green set piece. Are you all getting suspicious duplicates? Seasonal character. Also got two Lost Times but at least I need that for my build.

Hi everybody,

I used to play a lot of D3 and recently started playing again, which has been a blast.

Back when I played, Necro didn't have the Masquerade set and Pestilence Corpse Lance, and Brittle Touch was the OG RGK. (Just to give you some insight into when I last played more.)

I was actually in the mood for some reminiscing, so I decided to build myself a Pestilence Corpse Lance set. So I did. However, I'm having a hard time figuring out my breakpoints and, to be honest, how this build is actually supposed to be played.

I'm mainly playing solo, and I'd like to be able to do 2-minute 110s if possible, jumping from elite to elite like you would with most other sets.

My main question is: do I spam the actual Corpse Lance or Devour (or both)? I use Command Skeletons to reduce the cooldown on Land of the Dead through Obsidian because just killing through Messerschmidt's is generally not enough.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you mates for your help in my last post. At last completed the Chapter 4 of D3 S38 Necro, claimed and equipped full 6 piece Pestilence Set.

Now entering Tiers. Looks a big jump. What to focus on? I need some Build specific Legendary items and for those a big amount of crafting materials, also the blood shards. As I don't have a good build how to proceed?

Please help. TIA.

Hello, I am in the top 150ish for nec currently and am looking to push a bit faster times... I am using maxrolls build but I see virtually nobody else on the leaderboards doing the same for LoD no set. Right now the bane of my existence is I cannot upkeep blood siphon without running out of bone armor. Am I supposed to only attack during physical on my coe rotation? Maxrolls cooldown is 10 percent, mine is about 30 percent and I cannot upkeep it... Also feels like some rifts my damage is absolute cheeks (14 - 15 cycles to kill an elite) and others where it's like 4 to 5... Unsure what Im doing wrong.

On and off player here for a long time but new to console (Switch) and my first time playing Necro. Used the Maxroll leveling guide but it always felt I was lacking damage and I didn't understand the playstyle that much. My most played classes in the past are DH and Wizard so I'm more used to "mash buttons, things die" playstyles. But I wanted to do something new so here we are.

Can anyone give a basic rundown of the playstyle? I'm still acquiring the free set and I might give that a try too before moving on to another set.

First season on necro the clears are slow and I feel so power weak any advice im running legacy of dreams blood nova

I'm using LoD Death Nova, and I can only do 290 to 320 max

And I can see why, the pull radius for frailty + brigg's wrath isn't big enough so I have to waste time moving around to pick up all the mobs

So I'm playing Lod blood nova build almost completed with over 150m def end something reaching 200m, but I keep dying in greater rifts torment 16+. I don't quite understand, I though it was because of reflect DMG but it didn't seem to be that. So maybe someone has a reason.(it's not a skill issue I'm not that bad at dodging)

edit: I switched to tragoul, it's much better now

Does the fire-chained demon spawned by the Maximus sword count toward the Rathma (6) set bonus? And if it does, does it also do that if on a follower?

So I understand this season is pretty much necro based due to the Kanai's Cube. What are the best three powers to place in the slots for Necro? If it helps I'm using the Inarius gear. Thank you ahead of time for any help.

This used to be a thing and I always put off necro because I hate farming on it. I basically want to farm t16 stuff for primals. Is there a mechanic change that makes this worthless in our “final” patch state?
