This is my first guide, it’s for a necromancer minion master build that isn’t for keeping minions alive but the opposite, they’re there for you to die. Because when they die, you get energy (from Soul Reaping), health (explained later), and hurts the surrounding enemies (also explained later) This is mainly a PvP build, for places like Fort Aspenwood or AvA’s, I haven’t tried it in PvE yet. But feel free to do so yourself and tell me how it goes.

Firstly my Attributes are as follows:

((I tried to put an image but it was really small in the preview >_<))

Blood Magic - 0
Death Magic - 12 (+3+1)
Soul Reaping - 8 (+2)
Curses - 0
Healing Prayers - 10
Smiting Prayers - 0
Protection Prayers - 0

Feel free to change them a little. Note that you need 200 out of 200 attributes to get this set-up.

I have a Superior Death Magic Rune
Major Soul Reaping
And Major Vigor Rune (Superior would be better!)

And my skill bar is as follows:



From left to right:
Dwayna’s Sorrow – Put this on your minions – Ally and surrounding allies are enchanted, if they die whilst enchanted your party is healed for 35 health .
Death Nova – Also put on minions (or a teammate that is about to die(below 40% health)) - Ally is enchanted with Death Nova, if they die whilst enchanted surrounding foes take 105 damage and are poisoned for 15 seconds.
Heal Party – Heal each party member for 59 health
Plague Touch – Transfer a condition to target touched foe
Animate Bone Minions – Makes two minions that are level 13 (die quickly and there’s 2 in one spell )
Animate Flesh Golem {E} – Makes one big level 26 minion that packs quite a punch – for some extra damage and slaughters all those squishies out there (monks, eles, other necros, etc.)
Healing Breeze – For 10 seconds target ally has +7 health regen.
Heal Area – Heal all creatures in the area for 130 health. – to heal minions whilst your travelling (they’ll be next to you) and you don’t want to heal them in a fight, or they won’t die.

The weapons I use are these:



But you don’t really need these, it’s just what I have for normal MM-ing and it works, don’t really need a healing prayers offhand because of the short cast times and recharges on the skills.

The offhand is a collector weapon, found here or here.
And the weapon is cheap, I got mine for free, but they cost around 4k I think.

That’s the setup, and here’s how you use it.

You get into the zone/mission/arena/etc. and then you well... you do nothing, just follow the team until something dies, perhaps put dwayna’s sorrow on your team mates. When the first bad guy drops, Summon up a Flesh Golem, so the next foe drops quicker, then summon a few minions and quickly put dwayna’s sorrow on them whilst they’re next to each other and death nova on both of them as they run off, by now another foe should have dropped and you can repeat for another pair of minions. If you get a condition on you, use Plague Touch, if your getting harassed, use Healing Breeze, and if your party is taking a lot of damage, do Heal Party, after a while the group of enemies will be dead, so you stand still and get your minions to stand around you, there should be a few left, and do heal area, because you don’t want them dieing when there’s no enemies about. Then cast dwayna’s sorrow on yourself, this will get all the minions surrounding you also. Quickly put death nova on a few and run into the next group.

Rinse and repeat.

It takes quite a while for the enemy to realise what your up to and they just keep killing your minions that do like 4-5 damage a hit. Healing you, and killing themselves.

In most of the fights I’ve had the enemy hasn’t figured out for the entire game, and we win.

This build can kill unsuspecting foes very quickly, especially when they're surrounded and do an AoE skill, then take 105 damage times a few.

However they see minions they see a necromancer, then they gang on the necromancer :’(
You just need to stay back and try to stay alive. But your minions die easily so once your dead they usually don’t last long afterwards with both teams attacking them, and them healing no-one.


Have fun with this build and I hope this guide was easy to understand

My first guide so be nice! ;-)

Nice I like it. I'm thinking of doin something just like that......But flesh golem isnt great elite you should bring veretas sacrifice cause it can be like a pet (Cause it instant with 3 or less minions) : )

  The Soysauceman on 06/01/06 23:38

Sry wasn't looking you need them to die!!!! : ( then why bring flesh golem?)

  The Soysauceman on 06/01/06 23:40

I'm gonna make a guide more on the lines of Well of Blood/BR/Healing/Kool Stuff

  Yidd on 06/02/06 02:26

Does Sorrow of Dwayna affect minions? If so, your guide is a VERY good idea!!
Might want to switch out heal area with blood of the master in PvE, thou.

  KahlanXvii on 06/02/06 03:45

I love the Dwayna's Sorrow idea :)
Nice guide!

Nice Make more guilds.

  Im Not A Lemon on 06/02/06 07:26

thanks for all the positive feedback

and flesh golem is just to throw the enemy off your team a little, and it does a lot of damage, so why not ;)

  shoofar on 06/02/06 09:23

Cool stuff :)))

An i idea i had while reading this guide. If you want your minions to die faster, take taste of death and put death nowa on minion and then use taste of death on it. -- this will steal 340 health from it -- instant kill ? :)

  The labmonkey on 06/02/06 09:40

Dwayna's Sorrow on Minions! Brilliant idea. it's the reverse of a minion bomb. I'm going to change my minion bomber's 2ndary to Mo just for that.
It's currently Warrior for heal sig and shouts.

  The labmonkey on 06/02/06 09:43

One suggestion for a change: take a monk condition removal or Plague Sending. As aminion bomber, you won't be getting close to the enemies, and you can afford the health cost of Plague Sending. Also you can trigger minion deaths by summoning over your limit.

?

Ok lol..
Otherwise, good guide. This idea has been mentioned as a N/Rt but yours has some differences. I'm guessing everyone loves the Dwayna's Sorrow idea :)

Idea for monks : Cast Dwayna's Sorrow on minions if there's a MM in your group.

I might try putting DS on my minions while playing my MM, very good idea :))))))))

  Belshazaarswrath on 06/02/06 15:40

I heard of a similar idea from msomewhere else. But w/e it's still a good idea. gj oh and why does he need to make more guilds?

  The Soysauceman on 06/02/06 20:31

O nice well thats hot.....
