Poison/Summon Necro Question

[doomcu]

ima a summoner hybrid, but i juz dont know whats best... should i make Bone (spirit and synergies) or poison (Poison nova and synergies)? and another thing, is it worth to max Corpse Explosion? ty for ur time, cya round guys :)

edit: also, what golem is the best? a good base item Iron golem maybe...

[Tophead]

coropse explosion is the best skill or necromancer, it kills whole screens with one corpseo n high lvls.

golems are crap imo.

i thing pnova is the best because u can use facets to reduce enemys resists and push your damm, and its an massdestroyer

[Azrol]

i had a lvl 96 psn/summon/ce nec in last ladder and a lvl 94 bone/ce nec.
psn nec was much more fun to play imho...

but chaos said that on 2 servers (server 4 and ??) he improved some things for bone nec....so maybe bone nec is now better

[doomcu]

thnx for the info guys :) ill think ill make poison nova and no golem at all :)

[Fenris]

boneghost is really good for a little bit fun pvp^^
psn-nova isn't so good in pvp, but better in pvm except dungeon cause ancient diablo is always PI and it takes a long time to kill him with skeletons-.-

...ancient diablo is always PI and it takes a long time to kill him with skeletons-.-

Fenris you are wrong.
The Ancient Diablo is always immun to fire,lightning,cold and poison damage.
Sometimes it is immun to physical damage, too.

[countdracula]

but never magical damage. I think with bone spirit killing one monster should be faster. And if you have at least one corpse you can start exploding them.

sorry bout my ignorance but whats a "boneghost"? is it some kind of build or what? and one more question! should i max skeleton mages too? or are they worthless?

[Phoenix]

boneghost means bonespirit (level 30 skill)

I think the mages arent strong enough in hell although chaos improved their damage.
The biggest problem is that they block your other skells so they can't get close to the monsters.

[countdracula]

Does anybody know how much damage they exactly do ?

Does anybody know how much damage they exactly do ?

my poison-nova nec makes on slvl 85 only 136.875 - 138.380 Dam. And i have -121% enemy poison resistans on items (that is without lower resist).

[Phoenix]

He asked for Skell-Mages damage and not the Poison Nova!
I think only CE knows the exactly values.

no^^
i meant PI= poison immune
okay i see you thougt PI=physical immune^^

i didn't know the english name for knochengeist so i write boneghost
isn't ghost and spirit the same thing?

[blueman]

as far as i know is allways, as mentioned before, immune to fire, cold, lighting and poison damage and is he immune to magic OR physical damage.
@fenris
yes it is the same, by translation. but i guess the meaning might differ, a ghost can be a scary ghost while a spirit is something more nice, like the spirit of the ancients in the native american belief.

Ghost is more like "Gespenst" in German
And Spirit is more like "Seele"

An Armynancer with Magic Damage (Bone spells) would be more effective against Ancient Diablo, because he can always kill him. Sometimes he is immune to Poison AND Phys Dam, but then u can kill him with Magic damage. Or the other way round.
