Noob here. Need some advise with necro builds

[Sycon]

Hi!
I´m quite new in this forum and to the game as well.
I´ve been playing for a week, completed the base game in normal and malmouth in veteran and ending it with a lv 65 vitality caster conjurer. Loving it so far… BUT, im looking for a new build around Necro. Most specifically Diablo 2 Necro type, like a Skelemancer/spectres pet build or a Bone spells caster looking (vitality caster i guess, without/minimal melee action involved), cause i saw many builds with necro but without that necro vibe.
What should i go with, Cabalist or Ritualist? Any specific, fun or optimal builds?

Thx a lot!

Welcome to the forum and to the game.

Have a look at Maya’s pet builds, she has one or two using skellies, but they are more fragile than other pets.

The Carnival - A Guide to Pets

So, with all the forum changes and stuff, I decided to roll all my builds into a single thread + include guide of sorts and make it a pdf for easier viewing. First, the links to the guide itself: >> Online Link << >> Download Link << . (Note: If you are getting any error with the links, try using a VPN) . .

Thanks!
Ive been looking in the guide and maybe Cabalist its a better approach to what i wanted.
Caster option? Saw Ritualist builds, but they are not my style. Any specific guide or some different combination to necro besides shaman/occultist?

Much appreciated!

Not that would be pet based.

[1.1.1.2-1.1.6.2] Beginner's vitality Ravenous Earth Oppressor with leveling guide

Welcome to my thread about beginner/budget vitality ravenous earth Opressor! Introduction Oppressor (Oathkeeper + Necromancer) is one of the new class combos in FG. Usually when you create build you check what resistant reduction have in common both classes. Both classes reduce vitality resistance of monsters,so it’s good way to start. And also nice overall synergy, which makes Oppressor premier class for a vitality caster. Furthermore Dark One’s set is farm from specific mobs and is fast…

[Caster] Beginner's Nephrite Spellbinder

[binder_promo] Picture with all permanent buffs Grimtools link (click me) Introduction So I’ve got a request to do an Arcanist caster with both good single target damage and AoE. Initially I wanted to do Warlock, but realized that it would inevitably be considered pretty glassy, and therefore not very beginner friendly, so I shelved that draft. And here’s an obvious Spellbinder build instead. Nothing new – I had a similar concept for Sorcerer back in AoM that I haven’t done a guide for, th…

[shield melee] Beginner's pre-Krieg Death Knight

[image] Picture with all permanent buffs + Ulzaad’s Decree active Deathknight is often said to be a good build for beginners, the reason being the uniqueness of Krieg set. Unlike most items in the game that are random drops, this set can be acquired by farming certain bosses in Malmouth. The fact that you still somehow need to farm it is often omitted though. This guide is intended to provide guidelines to playing Deathknight before he gets Krieg set and Mindwarp. Grimtools link (click me)
