Untwinked Bone Necro
First Note: I used the search tool and spent a good while rummaging through the posts, but didn't find anything about this topic, however I'm sorry if I over looked one.
Anyway...
I may be crazy, I may just be bored, but whatever it is, something told me today while I was MFing on Mephisto that it would be fun to try and make an untwinked bone necro. I argued with my brain for a while, mentioning that bone necros need good items. I also pointed out that if you don't have full gear setup, you wont know how much str to get. But then I decided something, as I finished off the run. MFing and starting new characters that last until it gets old really isn't fun. I need a challenge. So I said "Brain, you're right. That would be fun." And this is what i set my goals to:
-Untwinked, so no muling all that good stuff your sorc has lying around
-Ability to dish out good Spear and Spirit damage
-Being able to withstand a good about of hits (or divert/tank them)
(Here comes the kicker)
-Get this necro to...lvl...90!
Obviously, since it's untwinked, it's not a PvP build. Since I'm making it a Ladder character, I may make it PvP after it resets, but since that is a long way off, I'm going to focus on PvM. Now here come my last minute questions:
1. Since this build is going to use what it finds, what str should I aim for? Vipermagi wont be too hard, as a Simple NM/Hell forge will pay for one easy. But maybe I should try to get something else? And in that case, what str should I aim for?
2. As far as dex goes, I was thinking 75 would be good since Wizspike is fairly cheap. Is that right?
3. Energy wise, I was thinking Base at first. But since I wont have good mana boost items til later on, I thought maybe 50-75 ish Energy until I get some better gear from Forge runes or other good drops.
That's pretty much it. Thanks for any advice, and wish me luck, this is gunna be a tough build.
Metra :cheesy:
EDIT: Oh yea, I forgot a question. What skills should I max/get at all? I was thinking just the traditionally spear/spirit syn + clay golem as a tank?
