Iron Maiden is a HORRIBLE curse for the necromancer. I'm level 31, and my two favorite curses are life tap (for when i'm not using a blood golem (most of the time, now that i'm in nightmare act 2) and enhance damage when i am using a blood golem (or sometimes just against any strong defense/medium defense opponent). I also peronally prefer my fire golem over the blood golem (although 80 mana is quite a bit) because he does SO much more damage. My fire golem does something like (i'm at work right now, so i can't look up my exact stats) 30-50. With enhance damage, that means that my fire golem rips **** up, especially when there are any burning dead mages attacking him (to heal him up).
Another spell I will advise against is revive, it's kind of fun to use in multiplayer, because allies sometimes keep trying to attack the enemies (i've seen a guy shoot 12 bone spears right through one of my Urdors), but it is also very expensive (45 mana), and the revived only last 3 minutes (and they aren't as "smart" as your skeletons or golem; they have a habit of just standing around or walking in random directions). ProMinx ps - my open battle.net character name is ProMinx, so look me up, if you think about it. |

I'm going to definately defer to Prominx on Golem choices(seeing how he is WAY ahead of my level 27 character). But I would throw out that an Iron golem(with IM and and Amp) works well fo rme. Especially love making IG's from enchanted weapons(seeing how I have too much $$$). Like weapons with 6-12 lightning damage

Iron Maiden is definatly the ****, but dont put too much on skeletons! They are 100% useless in nightmare and hell mode! You'll want atleast 5 monster revives. Bone Spirit does some hefty damage when you max it out, 300+ damage per hit and follows target (good for P/King).
I'm lvl 56 on bnet, way too much wasted time...lol |
