Necromancer Summoner Raid Build

This build is focused on applying an attack speed boost to massively increase your summon's DPS during boss raids! This build can output high and consistent DPS across the board and is valuable in a raid party.

Ranged Summon Composition

We focus on using ranged summons such as Skeletal Mages, Skeletal Archers, and modified golems from the Priest's Grubknife modifier. This allows us to group our summons in one place before buffing them with our Dark Curse. For the Golem, we equip the Priest's Grubknife to turn the Golem into a ranged summon. This increases its normal attack damage by more than 100% and turns it to splash damage while Command Skeleton gains some damage buff as well. Skeleton Command being ranged also means it can stay alive and output DPS longer during raids.

Prioritize Helping Allies During Raids

Since most of your DPS comes from your summons, it's often better to provide aid to other players that are in a bad spot by reviving them. You don't lose as much DPS as other characters and the other classes lose higher damage when they stop attacking than you so try to take a more supportive approach to raids with this build.

Stats and Paragon Priorities

Vanquisher

Vanquisher is the only tree we need for this build. Most of your damage comes from your summons and you should mostly be outside harm's way. Always be in a safe position and let your summons do the damage!

Treasure Hunter

Makes resource farming a bit better and faster. The other trees are focused on other content that this build does not excel at so it's better to start investing points in Treasure Hunter once possible and maxing out Vanquisher!

How to Play the Necromancer Summoner Build

Use All Summons in One Area Buff Summons With Dark Curse Reposition Allies With Command Skills

Use All Summons in One Area

You want to always place all your summons in one small area where they are close to each other. Doing so allows you to easily buff them with Dark Curse and it's also easier to spot if a boss attack will land on their area.

Buff Summons With Dark Curse

Once summoned, you want to always apply your Dark Curse Buff to your summons. This increases their attack speed by 40% which is a great damage boost!

Reposition Allies With Command Skills

You want to avoid having your summons, especially your skeletal arches die as having them not present on the field means you lose out on DPS. Make sure to use Command Skeletons and Command Golem to reposition your summons in a safer place!
