Need Godly Summon Necro Guide

[The-Grim-Reaper]

wut skills would a good summon necro max besides summon skele and skele mastery? would u max skele mage? i heard they suck bcuz of all the immunes in hell.. and which golem would be better clay or fire? and which curse would be better and how many points into each: amp dmg or decrepify?? Also i need help on item choices, this is what i have so far:

helm-shako
shield-homo
armor-bp enigma
weap-beast (i want beast for fanat.. dont care about hoto or leorics)
boots-marrows
ammy-maras or good unique summon ammy
rings-2x sojs or soj/rfrost
dunno which belt or gloves.. im thinking glooms and frostburn?? i dunno help me out with these.

Question: would might aura from merc be canceled out by fanat? or would they both add up? or should i just use hell defensive for defiance?

thanks for the help and im open to any criticism.

thats the exact same gear my summon necro uses and he can beat anything in hell and 80% of people in pvp...

Skills
20 skele mastery
20 skele
20 skele mage
1 amp dmg (doubles dmg)
20 bonespirit (to kill and get minions)
1 iron maiden (kill melee ppl in pvp)
1 in corpse explosion(GODLY MASS KILLING ATTACK)
1 in bone armor
1 in clay golem and mastery (mine has 8k life)
1 in summon resists
stats
str- (jsut use anni to get bp enig)
dex- 35 (so you can use hoto, you dont need block you'll never get hit)
vit- all
enrgy-none (shako + sojs + cta gives me over 1k mana)

might a fant work together for twice the fun
spider + trangs gloves or trang gloves + trang belt

a summon nec won't be good for much in hell, and goes kind of slow even in nm. i made an 85 pure summoner. do it if you want, don't expect to beat anyone in duels unless they are very low lvl'd.

skeletons: max
mage: max
summon resist: max
revive: as much as possible

good idea to max out a golem and golem mastery if you have the points.

lolz wow want me to show you my skele mancer he pwns baal, diablo, meph duriel, andy, cows you name it and i have trouble with WC barbs and smart javazons

[Siluru]

Shouldn't have a problem versus WC Barbs, Bonearmor should greatly reduce the damage of the WC Dmg. Also, wouldn't it be better to get 1 into the summoning skills, and mainly pump bone skills?

[TuNa-FisH_SuShI]

the main point for a skele mancer is for the skeles to kill the enemy not be a meat sheild... also wc barbs kill all your skeles fast but i dont die just my skeles when my skeles are gone im pretty much useless but they got 2k+ life after bo each

how come u didnt look in the character/development guides, i like the guides in there, they godly

[The-Grim-Reaper]

thanks for the help tuna.

[TuNa-FisH_SuShI]

you are welcome if you play non-west-ladder i can sell you some itesm or show you my gear

[[The Reaper]]

I think there's a summon necro in the stickies. I personally think they aren't worth making, but check the stickies if you want a full guide.

[TuNa-FisH_SuShI]

Despit popular belief my skelemancer is the funniest (2nd strongest after hammerdin at pvm) and one of the best pvpers i have ever made but you guys can think that their weak and for noobs but if you got the gear they rock

[nujabes]

i think getting a might merc would help to raise the skele dmg?

[Siluru]

Wouldn't you want to max Bonespear instead of Bonespirit because Bonespear goes through targets?

[The-Grim-Reaper]

yes the might merc has already been established and i think spirit would be better because of its homing features and spear only does half the dmg of spirit without all the other synergies. u only need it for summoning for 1st couple of skeles anyway.

[TuNa-FisH_SuShI]

yes with bonespear it doesnt do very much dmg because you only have marrows for the glitch bug... plus your skeles should pretty much Pwn everything

[Stifle_this]

this sounds good, i was gunna make one after my WWsin anyways, but now im even more encouraged, but i need to get a beast, and now im a little pissed cause i sold the 7 summon gcs i had

[snoboy]

yeah summonmancers if they are good can own ne pvp, i think they only hard ones are fire ball sorc since one fire ball and they are all dead including u, lite sorc is another toughy

[The-Grim-Reaper]

all u need to do is curse them and then tele up to them. since all ur minions go with ur tele theyll be swarmed and dead before they can do anything.

[TuNa-FisH_SuShI]

nah summon res should give ure skiels 75 all res so it pretty much takes 4 fire balls to kill the skeles
+ something fishy i pk trapsins all the time and there traps usually only hit 1 of my skeles at a time so it takes em at least 30+ shots to kill me + my skeles (also i just traded assn circ i gambled for 10 hi WOOT)

i dont know how to put a picture in but ill try
