So.. restarted EVERYTHING. Got bored… zzzzzzzz
Now i want to just try one more before quitting.

Xbow or melee necro ? Is melee even playable? Have not read up about this build. I know xbow is good but naaaah.

Help!

I prefer Xbow necro over melee any day, from lvling to Scos farming, Xbow would out-perform Melee in my opinion.

It is playable until you reach t10 unless you wanna use GT and fortress relics ;)

xbow is solid, ran it as my starter in one of the recent patches and had no issues. no experience with melee so can't comment on that.

Xbox was my Scos farmer this season until I built a wyrd sorc. Run Xbow with crucible for high avoid. Widow maker to clear mobs and buckshot for ethers, druids and trees. I found more success maxing death ward before embalming for more avoid and defence

never played labs, sorry(not beyond t5 anyway, and that was back when there were 15 tiers, and i did that with a different build). i mostly farmed fauzt with him. until 130ish he was perfectly fine with cheap gear tho.
