after maxing the 3x psn skills necessary, what do i spend the rest of my pts on? i put one into all the summon skills and obv 1 into curses down to LR.

should i max a golem? or golem mastery? or LR? any ideas? any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Max golem mastery, rest into golems
OR
Skele mastery + DK

blades are actually better tanks than skeletons or golems on bosses if you know how to use them well. theyre also spammable without corpses.

max golem mastery and the rest into blades. Golem mastery will give clay golem enough life to land a hit on major bosses before it is destroyed, that leaves you free to spam blades and use psn strike on a very slow boss. Decrep to slow the boss, cast clay, once he hits, switch to lr, strike with poison then switch back to decrep and spam blades. that makes for a very slow boss

decrep is great for bosses, but if you need something with your skills you should consider any option that will help make your necro survivable.

Spirit blades is an option: not only do you get four, you don't need a corpse to cast them. If you want to use a golem, don't forget golem mastery.

Some people prefer blades, some don't. I know HolyGhost didn't even get them until level 101, he doesn't care for them. Others like Nedder (believe it was ned) tell me its on of the best summons since u can spam.

I maxed the 3 poison skills, 1 into the curses down to lower res, 1 into each summon skill, then maxed summon mastery and then rest into golem mastery. Your gear should raise the summons skill levels enough for those mastery skills to really make an impact.

Like everyone said...its a matter of preference, I think blades are a 1point wonder. Personally I would max skel mastery, 1 in blades, 1 down to DK. From there u can max skels or dk....or even go 10/10

I would opt for max ir + max CE or otherwise max lr + max golem mastery for a more defensive build.

lr has terrible deminishing returns, with gear you will be only getting an extra 1% every 2-3 points. Thats not worth 20 points. I'd rather max golem mastery and sink the rest in skele mastery (with 1 in DK. that way you have 9-10 skeles + DK + 4 golems and blades against trash. with skele mastery buffed abit they will last very well and Dk will be a decent meat shield. The life per kill will also help all party members and thats easier to provide all the time if your Dk stays alive longer.
