PvM Bonemancer - Help!
Ok folks...
I'm finally getting around to redoing my 1/09 Nec, who's useless in 1.10 now.
Here's my situation...gear-wise I have full Trang's set, Homonc and Leoric's x2. I have a +2 nec ammy and not sure what rings I may end up with.
I like the idea of the Skelemancer, but i've never been one for standing in the back while my meatshields do all the work; hence my curiosity about the Bonemancer.
My 2 main concerns about going with a Bonemancer is:
1) Alot of synergies to max...and I don't have Marrowwalk's....yet.
2) Wondering how effective a Bonemancer is in Hell diff or throughout the game in general. I hear people say that Bonemancers can run Hell Baal easily...but what tactics?
Also, what about MFing? How effective is a Bonemancer with an mf setup? What kind of MF gear are we talking about anyways?
Summons...while i like the idea of casting Bone Spirits and Spears, I do realise that an army of skeles does help more than a bit. Problem is, with so many synergies to max, there's not awhole lot of points left to raise a decent army. And is Poison Nova wrth pumping if I can't max it's synergies either?
I've searched for a guide on a Bonemancer, but the Encyclopedia is too vage and Souless's guide is geared for PvP, which isn't what I want to do with this build. Is a PvM Bonemancera lost cause?
Lotta question but haaaalp!
