Couple concerns about pvp bone/summoner...

I was wondering if someone could tell me how to beat the following chars, because all i see is a disaster of dead skellies and a dead necromancer.

Fire Sorcs: Fireballs will wipe out army in no time. If she teles on top of you while your minions are stacked on top of you, she can just cast fireballs and finish you off with splash dmg.

Orb Sorcs: Orb destroys army, kills necro as she teles around laughing

Blizzard: Teles near you, blizz on top of you, everything dies in about a second, then you die a second later.

Trappers: Lightning flies through and kills army and nails you, either killling you or getting u stuck in mb.

Those are just a couple concerns, can anyone give some advice? Thx in advance.

Hmmm.... Let's see... I'll post according to my own experiences, so these are in no way the "best" dueling advice. You should contact Dracoy if you wish to know more about the tactics against different chars.

1. Firesorc: Remember, don't tele around too much, keep your army spread out and use caster tactics (iow, cast 3 or so bone spirits between teles).. 125% fcr is essential for these fights. You can also try the "delivery" tactic against these kinda chars, iow tele on top of them and run back, leaving your skeles stuck to their asses. Then attack with spirit.

2. Orbers: Pretty much the same as firesorcs.. Though you can tele more against these sorcs. Try more offensive tactics against these.

3. Blizzards: You want to keep moving at all times against these sorcs. The area damage really is a killer. Try straightforward attacks, amp - tele on top - spirit away. I never found these too hard if you keep on the move, teleporting constantly. Just don't get namelocked..

4. Trappers: IMO, the nastiest class to fight with a summon/bone nec. Keep moving away from them, just cast spirits in their direction, put them on the move & try to get them to chase you. The trapper is the deadliest when she can play her own game, stayig near her traps mindblasting you.


Also, I've yet to meet any char that could have beaten my minions in an instant. Just keep your skeles close to you most of the time, use evasive tactics when facing fireballers/trappers etc. and most important of all, find out what tactics suit you by dueling them over and over again :thumbsup:

well i beg to differ. I've dueled all these classes with my nec and the minions die so fast it leaves me defenseless with a weak spirit.

What kinda equipment do you use? What level skeles do you have?

I have dueled against quite a few sorcs with my hybrid, but maybe the sorcs are better where you duel :scratch: .. And like I said, I'm no expert, these are based on my experiences. PM Dracoy if you want leet tactics..

I duel on NL east in nm and i use the following gear

Shako (Havent found that rare circlet yet...) :scratch:
28% Maras (Havent found that godly necro ammy yet...) :scratch:
Trang Gloves
Credendum (waiting for arach)
Fcr ring with +stats/resists
Soj
Marrows
Homun
Hoto (cast rate on leoric is too slow, cant afford beast)
Enigma

I have lvl 32 skellies with 33 mastery
Their Life:729
Their Dmg:366-369
12 Skellies
around 61% resist all

I keep thinking i should buy some summon charms, but i havent got around to it.

Yeah, you do need more summon skillers... They will make a big difference in skele dmg & life.. Also, you should try to get your hands on a CtA.

I've got lvl 40 skellies with lvl 42 mastery. I get 15 skeles, with something around 920 base life in nm, and around 620 damage.

Beast I've only tried using against melee chars, because with it I'd have too little fcr to catch fast teleing casters.
