EXPLANATIONS TO YOUR QUESTIONS-
Q: Why not have maxx'd Resist??
A: You dont need resist because if you think about it you wont have time to get hit. you get hit once your probably dead because your a necro.

Q: Why should I wear Darkforce instead of Homunculus or Boneflame.
A: First of boneflame sucks...second of all homunculus does have resist but DOES NOT have FCR which IS the MOST important thing on NECROS! and third of all Darkforce is just too cool to not have...

Q: Can I wear sojs instead of FCR rings?
A: I dont want to explain this again but i have to..i guess... NECROS MOST IMPORTANT SKILL IS SPEED! BECAUSE NECROS CANT DO MASS DAMAGE LIKE Fire Sorcs OR CANT DO AUTO HITS LIKE FOHaDINS SO YOU HAVE TO BE FAST!!

:laugh: EXPLANATION ABoUT WHY FCR is IMPORTANT...:laugh:
FCR - FASTER CAST RATE is important because NECROS cannot do MASS damage they can do up to 7k damage MAx which isnt very much and will not take down any GOOD character in 1 shot... so you can take dem down in NUMEROUS shots by being a faster CASTER! AND SO FCR is the best choice for Bonenecros...Bonenecros are meant for major speed got that?? OK than good.. NOW BACK TO THE QUESTIONS

Q: Can I Wear VALK WING or WIZPIKE GLOVEs??
A: NO! DO NOT GET THESE ITEMS NO MATTER WHAT! I HAD BOTH OF THEM THEY POOFED DEY DISAPPEARED I DID PERM DEM BUT PERMING SOMEHOW DOESNT WORK ON THESE ITEMS THEY ARE 100% DETECTABLE BY BATTLE.NET ANY REALM! I REPEAT DO NOT WAISTE ITEMS /// RUNES FOR THESE NON LEGIT ITEMS PLEASE!!

Q: I am having trouble leveling this character witout Energy, Dexterity, Strength..Please HEllp!?
A: Yes, this character is EXTREMELY hard to level..BUT IF YOU HAVE A EXTREMELY KIND FRIEND who will protect you from harm in the realm of diablo and help you level// rush ask him to do it for you FOR A PRICE maybe a rune.. thats wat i did.. than it all paid off at the end i have about 500 vitality which is awsome!

Q: GRRR..MY BONE NECRO SUCKS! HELP PLEASE?!
A: Bone Necros in the 1.10 patch are currently one of the BEST PVP Characters. DO NOT JUDGE A BONE NECRO BY ITS WEAKNESSES...EVERY CHAR HAS A WEAKNESS..

Q: GRRR... THIS BONE NECRO SUCKS AT KILLING MONSTERS HELP??!
A: IF YOU WANT A PVM CHAR MAKE ANOTHER CHAR CUZ THIS IS NOT THE CHAR FOR YOU...

Q: ( SOMEONE ACTUALLY ASKED THIS QUESTION LOL ) Why do necros look so old...in the game??
A: Why you checking him out/// do not judge a book by its cover..

Q: What char classes can necros kill easily?
A: Probably - Hammerdins, Melee Palidans, Barbarians, Bowazons , Javazons, Summon Necros, Poison Necros, Sorcs, etc..

Q: What Char classes can Kill necros or are hard to beat?
A: FOHADINS, Trap Assassins, WW Assassins, OTHER Bone NEcros

Q:Why Should I get a NM Defensive Act 2 Merc?
A: Because it slows dowm your enemy with its HOLY FREEZE+ IT SLOWS DOWN DOUBLE TIME WITH CLAY GOLEM.

Decrep curse is a must for all necros...but thats just me

[Silver Ice]

decrip curse is nice, maybe a little bit into dex and the rest into energy

[Rob]

it's all about speed.. when you're pvp'ing a necro, you really don't have TIME to try to successfully curse them..

i think this guide is flawless, thumbs up

[mrxwormxsayz]

Thank you rob yes i think its pretty flawless too YOU DONT HAVE TIME to curse and LOL OK WATEVER WHY WOULD U NEED DEX? LOL U GONNA MAX BLOCK?? AND ENERGY LOL?? ENERGY SUCKS NO CHAR WAT SO EVER SHOULD HAVE ENERGY THE STARTING ENERGY IS ENOUGH AND U CAN EVEN HAVE MORE ENERGY BY GETTING THE ITEMS I LISTER UP THERE... SUCH AS

DARKFORCE, ENIGMA, SHAKO, HOTO, FCR RINGS USUALLY HAVE EM, ETC IF YOU DONT NOE DAT UR JUSS AN IDIOT ... DAT DOESNT NOE HOW TO BUILD CHARACTERS TRY TO DUEL ME ILL OWN U...!! XP

P.S- MY NECROMANCER HAS ALL THOSE SKILLS // ITEMS// STATS// MERC ETC. AND IM ONE OF THE BEST NECROS AROUND..

[Rapta111]

Err... yeah, sure say that. Not much of a co-op player though. I'd recommend Lower Resist, since basically every character does elemental damage these days. Here's some notes:

1. Why the heck would you use griffon's eye on a Bone Necro, or ANY necro for that matter.
2. I would recommend 2x SoJ's with Magefists for PvM, since speed is not AS important.
3. Tomb Reaver is a much better weapon for a merc, especially one that uses Holy Freeze.
4. If you dislike the use of SoJ's, then why would you not put any points into energy?
5. Take an ANGER MANAGEMENT class.

[jerzilla]

Very good guide, I think you nailed it right on the head. Like other's said, Decrep is pretty useful (i dont get to use it much in PVP, but against PVM it works great). And in all honesty this bone necro is good @ PVM as well. Why? Decrep monsters, golem tanks it, 3-4 shots of bone spear through a crowd will kill tons of guys (takes like 2 seconds to shoot em) at which point you switch to Corpse explosion and take out the rest (you'll have it from pre-req anyways). Only thing i'd caution is that your mana may be a little low, if the person wants to sacrifice some life for mana it's a personal choice. (and also you may need a few STR points to be able to use marrowalks, i think they're 125 str or something 1xx at least). People following this build have to understand that wearing ANY items that give +skills to bone prison will mess up the marrowalk bug (it gives lvl 33 as long as there's no modifiyers to bone prison) Otherwise, fantastic guide. If people follow this they'll have an all around PVP/PVM/Rusher. Good job.

EDIT: Also on the mana thing, I use 1 SOJ and 1 FCR ring w/ resists, the soj helps a little with the low mana.

on a side note, yes FCR is the most important thing, especially in pvp.

Co-sign with rapta on using magefist gloves, helps with the mana situation, whereas trangs does not.

EDIT2: And also very important. you can put a point into Bone armor, but max it last. Do Wall before as it adds synergy.

[mrxwormxsayz]

Yes yes thank you for the props i appreciate it but I REPEAT NEVER PUT MANA! ENERGY IM SORRY ITS JUST HOW IT WORKS.... Fcr is more important than energy .. well lets have a poll than mr. rapta ill put it up... on this section lets have a vote eh?? THE QUESTION WILL BE ....

WHATS MORE IMPORTANT ON A BONE NECRO SOJS or FCR Rings??

[DeStRuCtIoN]

dude... this post has already been postsed here... http://www.d2sector.net/forums/showthread.php?t=10579 , which 1 came first??? it's just a repeat of the other one....

[jedimaster86]

Uh, nice revive (2004). On top of that, don't flame; it generally isn't acceptable by most and angers those who must punish you for it.
