Isn't it quite outdated? Scythe nec received quite a nerf, they are still good, but require some charms and better gear than earlier.
For leveling and getting charms I would suggest going for dagger + shield, there is even a guide for this build

Oh, and your main attack should be Carnage, it hits multiple times, has AoE and melts single targets, when parasite hits only once and is awful against single targets.

Yep. Carnage for single target, Parasite for crowds. Besides I think Nec is suitable for you cos he doesnt have brain lol. But remember no brain no pain but no pain no gain :P :P :P

No, stick to Carnage all the time. There is no point in maxing parasite, this is a waste of points. You will have to click more, but you'll have more points for defensive skills like Death Ward/Deathlord/Talon's Hold. As far as I remember Carnage's spell timer is deleted at skill lvl 6. So you put 6 points into it, that's all. 1 point into parasite as it is required to get Deathlord.

Max Parasite only when you want to farm heavily. Which usually happens after getting at least 60% of charms and getting proper gear.
