- Pros

Big stats, summons, and flashy reanimates.
TU's carry us far (+115). Barbarian skills on right-click

War Spirit reanimates provide a lot of variation. Elites are strong.
The Spear tree passive works without a spear. Ha!
- Cons
Not the hugest damage all the time.
You may find an eth SU spear and be tempted to respec...
- Skills





Takedown (1) - Prereq. Too short of a duration to be of use.
Hyena Strike (several) - Boosts the max level of Lioness.
Great Hunt (1) - Prereq. Good even with 1 point if you were curious.
Lioness (SMax) - Giagantor numbers. Maxed at +40 for me usually.
Pounce (1) - I miss the old OP Assassin pounce builds. Better as an oskill.





Wild and Free (10) - 30% movement speed is a happy medium.
Summon Fire Elementals (1-Max) - Great early/mid game tanks.
Balance (Max) - Flat defense combines well with percent defense.
Ecstatic Frenzy (1) - Prereq.
Defensive Harmony (3) - Bosses are capped at 25% slow.




Bloodlust (Innate) - Items on swap can boost this to +350% physical damage.
Spellbind (1-Max) - Less damage in, more damage out. Further points are mainly useful for their synergy.
War Spirit (1) - I haven't noticed a difference between 1 and max points.
Spirit of Vengeance (Max) - Reanimates are a good source of damage/tanks/auras/etc. Not all Spirits are created equal. Resummon as necessary.





Deathgaze and Noctule are great oskills from TUs. Charged Strike can be found on amulets (ilvl +82). Crucify and Parasite can be worthwhile oskills from SUs.

Normal: levels 1-55
Gear:
Level 1: vendor your favorite weapon, some 15% speed boots, 1-socket staff/belt/gloves. This game's already better than Diablo III.

Boots: Whichever have the highest movement speed
Jewelry: Any +Skills ->
Swap:
Sockets: Tal runes or resistance Pgems. This saves us on Mystic Orbs (MOs)
MOs: Use %ManaRegen orbs to counteract +Skills costs. Save room for +Attributes if needed. Otherwise, save gold for oils.
Skills:
Max: Summon Fire Elementals, Balance, Lioness
10: Wild and Free
3: Defensive Harmony
Notes:
** Save Imbues for Sacred items at level 99 crafts (details later).
** You can put +1 skill point into every skills until Lioness is unlocked, then respec for a better super-early game experience.
** Note the Cube Recipes for socketables, disenchanting/uptiering, and changing item quality. I generally wait until T2/T3 for crafting uniques or gamble if one doesn't drop.
** Be sure to complete the Level Challenge
** TU3/TU4 upgrades can be saved for ethereal
** Most of this won't matter much if you're multiplayer.

Sockets: Tal runes or resistance Pgems. This saves us on Mystic Orbs (MOs)
MOs: Use %ManaRegen orbs to counteract +Skills costs. Save room for +Attributes if needed. Otherwise, save gold for oils.
Skills:
Max: Summon Fire Elementals, Balance, Lioness
10: Wild and Free
3: Defensive Harmony
Notes:
** Save Imbues for Sacred items at level 99 crafts (details later).
** You can put +1 skill point into every skills until Lioness is unlocked, then respec for a better super-early game experience.
** Note the Cube Recipes for socketables, disenchanting/uptiering, and changing item quality. I generally wait until T2/T3 for crafting uniques or gamble if one doesn't drop.
** Be sure to complete the Level Challenge
** TU3/TU4 upgrades can be saved for ethereal
Ravenflock
to stretch its durability, use a jewel with Indestructible (ilvl 16-99), or simply reroll it. Killspeed was not an issue for me, but mana usage was so I held off on this for a while.

Quest-cleared boss portals can be used to grab the waypoint and save time.
Joining popular lobbies can be a nice exp boost. Mind your manners.
Act1 games are a great way to party and clear most/all of the current difficulty. Let classes have their respective gear - y'all earned it together.
Well-placed town portals are invaluable. If everyone dropped one at the zone/floor entrance and end (or corpses), we'd all save a lot of time.

These demand a mix of big numbers, a little luck, and maybe even some cheese. If you have no shame, corpse-bombing is an option now. Back in my day...
105: The Butcher: Rush towards him so he targets you first to avoid having your summons roasted. Easier than Grizwold.
105: Infernal Machine: Lock on and keep swinging. Most mobs will die to AOE, some might require special attention.
105: Death Projector: Unsummon everything. Unfortunately we cannot cheese this with a +Hailstorm ammy.
105: Island of the Sunless Sea: Reanimates help. Rush the angels on sight like the Butcher. The last tele is tough and is avoidable by re-running for the 6th bag.
110: Torajan Jungles: Good for leveling
110: Lord Aldric Jitan: Pulling a few at a time and letting towers expire will make this doable.
110: Horazon's Sanctum: Damage check.
110: The Binding of Baal: Be selective about engagements, fight mobs that are distracted.
110: Assault on Mount Arreat: Same as above. Engagement well, run around as needed.
110: Cows: Keep a few summons up. Tanky reanimates make a huge difference. Good for leveling.
115: Bull Prince Rodeo: Get stunlocked and die a lot. Chip away and rip.
115: Rathma Square: Manage the respawning minions, then lock on. AOE will take care of the rest.
115: Akarat: Damage check. This is what made me opt for Deathgaze.
115: Black Road: Summons target the alter, which removes most of the difficulty here.
115: Kurast 3000: Despite there being nothing too special, this is still one of my favorite areas.
115: High Heavens: Kill the first mob at a choke for safety, the free debuff chains well.
115: Tran Athulua: Only bite off what you can chew. Avoid the numerous death procs.
115: Legacy of Blood: Get lucky. Use summons to tank hits.
115: The Veiled Prophet: Wait out the lollazers, nuke the rest.
115: Heart of Sin: Distract with summons to avoid damage. I died a lot here but that tip gives me a chance. rip.
120: The Triune: I died a lot learning this fight - it's tricky.
120: Teganze: Stacking resistances helps.
120: Duncraig: Make safe teleports, avoid barrels. This is how far I am currently.
120: Baal: Yeah, he's pretty strong.
Top-Secret Cheese: Some reanimates are borderline invincible or do crazy huge damage. Sometimes Fire Elementals can be summoned to permanently distract and chip down tough bosses (looking at you, Grizwold...)
