Well, after some thoughtless prick ruined my night with the Furysin by
inviting me to party when they had Baal slivered and sending me to Hell at
51, I started thinking of some new builds. The throwing necro was scrapped,
and I now have plans for a PD/Magi necro, thus:
1 pt Poison Dagger (any more and the delay becomes nasty, also
mana-intensive)
Max Poison Explosion/Nova (synergies, helps vs bosses)
Enough LR to break Poison Immunes
Max Skel Mastery
Max Magi, or maybe just 10 points
1 pt in Revive
I suppose I should put some in CE as well...
Avoid poison/bone skillers, go for summons and curses, or wands/hands with
+CE. Plenty of poison charms, Trang Armor, gloves and head (gives me the
effect of 5 facets), Goblin Toe, Nos Coil, Guillaume's, and either
Blackbog's or Fleshripper. HF merc with Kelpie, to slow the poisoned chumps
right down. (Kelpie, HF, Nos, and Fleshripper all slow) 115 Str
(Guillaume's), Dex 86 (Fleshripper), no Energy, rest in Vit.
Next up, a Kooky sorc.
Max Energy Shield
16 pts TK (1:1 ratio)
Max Nova
Max Lightning Mastery
Plenty in Warmth (depends on rest of gear)
1 each Static/Teleport/prereqs
Any left in Lightning or Chain Lightning
I thought Spire would be ideal for this build, but maybe not, having seen
War Spear. Or a +3 Lightning Skills staff. Or Memory. Idea is to get Energy
Shield to a point where it absorbs close to 100% of the damage, with enough
Warmth, mana regen and Vulpine effects to negate the loss completely. Base
Vit build. Nightsmoke is obviously an ideal belt, with a Griffon, possibly
Crescent Moon, Silkweaves, Frosties or Magefists...I know it's weird, but
I'm Jabber.
Finally, FuryWolf. I'm gonna need a Ribcracker, otherwise I have the
following:
Black in a scourge
Windhammer
IK Maul
BStar
Butcher's
Burrito
Question is, Oak or Wolverine? Dire Wolves or Grizzly? Cyclone Armor? Max WW
and Lycanthropy? Cerebus or Jalal's? Lavagout? Hellmouth? Dracul's?
OK so not that long. But I AM nuts...

Signature
CLans, Jabber, Whatever
Who's Da Bitch NOW
Someone should put up a sign, or something

one question, just 1 point in raise skelly? I think I'd go 3 because you'll
get 3 and with maxing mastery that will provide some troops early on.

yes, I can see your reasoning for nos coil, but gee it's a big swap going
tals hat instead of tals belt.
Goblin Toe, Nos Coil, Guillaume's, and either

and overwrite each other unless you can magically wield a kel;pies and
blackbogs together on your necro. I'd rely on clay golem and decrep when
the CG needs assistance.

I'd tend not to go the high CB route either - one CB item would be it. A PD
necro isn't really fun (or I don't think so) for repeatedly and quickly
hitting a target.

I'd oak
Dire Wolves or Grizzly?
what's wrong with both?
Cyclone Armor?
nope
Max WW

love jalas, dracs are nice but unnecessary for a wolf
