Totem Hybrid Necromancer

Im loving this build. However, act 5 terror is kicking my ass! I have all 4 honorific pieces fully mo'd, and t6 staff/armor. Im also lvl 94. Anything im doing wrong or missing here? Any tips? Thanks in advance!

Edit: Nevermind..... Just beat the act. haha. On to destruction... oh boy

thanks, in this new docs it doesn't say which gem to use... can you remember me?^^

It is possible to farm Duncraig with this build untwinked?

Act 4 and 5 hurt because of the monster types. Act 4 has those heretics with the piercing skull attacks that destroy you through your summons, and act 5 has a ton of laggy elemental spells that hit wider areas.

Glad you made it through. Lemme know how the charms go once you start collecting them.

If you're cautious and know how to spot barrels and how much time you have before you should move, etc, then yes it's possible. With cheap geared honorifics and such, you may lack the damage to make it efficient, but it's certainly possible if you're careful. You can't quite AFK it like the old melee necros where you just held down one button and cleared the rooms, ya know?

Topaz - Energy
Ruby - Vitality
Diamond - Strength
Amethyst - Dex
Bloodstone - Fire Resist
Onyx - Cold Resist
Amber - Lightning Resist
Turquoise - Poison Resist.

Make sure you don't use your mystic shard after resetting your traders chest, or else it will erase the charm and you'll have to do it all again. Once you hit 50 rolls on it, a chipped skull will appear in the cube to let you know you've hit 50. That's when you cube it with the Mystic Shard. If you're unsatisfied with the stat roll, just farm a new chest and reroll the stats. Only use the Mystic Shard when you're comfortable with the trader chest stats at 50 rolls, without resetting it.

thx

I guess i find a way to farm duncraig without pain, sentinel sorrow has sacred armor... so i can teleport safe to new rooms and get time to switch to bts style

What should I cube Trader chest with what gem? :roll:

Diamond or am. for dex or str, you want to aim to get the highest amount with least reductions

Hmm, I think i need more energy for Totem Necr. Why we +str and dex and -energy :-]

Because saves you more in the long run

Example:
100 str
-30 all others

thats 70 extra energy

If you cube the alternating gems, you can get about -5 to all stats, then just use the resistance gems until you hit 50, which will most likely give you positive to all
