Explanation and Rotation

-Explanation-

This build will let you solo most content in the game with ease, but still be mindful of what your pulling!

Now first i must explain one core mechanic of the build that is of the utmost importance and that mechanic is Rage Management.

Rage is the fist icon next to the mobs health and armor, upon the fist icon filling up the mob uses an ability that usually does a devastating amount of damage, and is the reason most wipe when trying to handle multiple mobs at once. The Rage icon fills after a mob attacks/or you attack and does scale with the amount of damage your attack does.

Now onto explaining the abilities!

-Sword Abilities-
Debilitating Blow -25% dmg debuff to a mob which is essential when fighting a boss!
Parry -50 dmg to next attack of all enemies within 5 meters ,and additionally removes up to 1200 or more rage from all of those mobs!
Riposte -is an extra rage reducer thats single target and an a big armor restoration ability(Restores 90 armor every 10 seconds)! You want to use it to control whatever it is you'll be focusing
Windstrike - is really good to get those red attacks i marked earlier! What attack you decide to use after windstrike is completely situational! You may want to boost your parry or many strike aoe, to burst down a small group of mobs/adds with low hp. (Example. Kur Tower Zombie Packs) Or maybe burst down a single mob with 3k or more hp.
Precision Pierce- Does True damage and is good for killing mobs whose armor is keeping you from finishing it off, it also way out damages the big cooldowns such as finishing blow and decapitation with its low cooldown. (At least with this build taking precision pierce mods didn't interfere with the necromancy mods to much)


-Necromancy Abilities-
Death Hold- Is used to apply slashing damage debuff and immobilizing mobs that runaway or mobs that you have deathgazed!
Life steal (13 seconds) A big survival ability with a low cooldown and it scales with the amount of mobs you pull!With the mods i picked out it should self heal you for 60 + 132 for every mob within 10 meters! Use when below 192 health to use it to its full potential! (Overtime you'll be able to keep track of the mobs and know how low you can get before you use it)
Death Gaze-Burst ability you want to use when you have applied debilitating blow/parry and know you can use it safely.
Wave of Darkness-Burst ability you want to use when you have applied debilitating blow/parry and know you can use it safely.
Life Crush-is used to obtain the combat refresh bonus's should you find yourself power hungry or low on health and armor.


-Rotation-

Debilitating Blow>Parry>Death Hold>Windstrike>Precision Pierce>Death Gaze>Wave of Darkness
(With Death Gaze ,and Wave of Darkness on cooldown just spam Riposte in there place)

This is the order in which you want to prioritize your abilities, not necessarily the exact rotation you must follow.
Having Debilitating blow and parry on a tough opponent is always priority as it ensures your survival.

You want to make sure that your always applying Death's hold before bursting the mob down with your precision pierce,Death Gaze,and Wave of Darkness combo. Reason for this being is Death Hold applies a immobilization effect on the mob which prevents it from running. Death gaze terrifies your target, so using death hold before loading your burst onto the enemy is nice.
Riposte- Use if parry is down and the mob your focusing is low on rage/ if you have lost 90 armor
Life steal - Use if you have lost 192 Hp or More

These i have left out of the rotation as they are completely situational. What this means is that at any given point during the fight you will prioritize one of these 2 moves over everything else in order to ensure your survival.


Bonus

Necromancy comes with 2 abilities which boost Health ,and Power by 200 allowing the user to obtain up to 900 or more Maximum-HP

you need to offset the edginess with something cute and innocent. allow me to make a suggestion:

Grim Lepus (Rabbit/Necro) Build

Grim Lepus (Rabbit/Necro) Build

I tried some combinations with Rabbit/necro and couldn't really pull off any good numbers. The sword/necro build is meant to be a build that just sticks to the character of the novel series as close as it possibly can, but it's combination still makes it viable for soloing. I could see Rabbit/Ice or rabbit/unarmed being a really good burst class though, but so far with what i have seen i don't think Rabbit and necro is currently good at all.

New Build going out today, will be an Ice/Fire build. Will be a pure dps spec

OKokok... So I had this craaaazy idea the other day and came here looking for validation and/or ideas...
VanHelsing : How would Rabbit/Ice compare to Ice/Necro, assuming the Necro skills used in this build?

I understand Unarmed is the go to offhand, but I'm already using that for DPS on my main and cow and wanted to try Necro on SOMETHING... and my Pig likes Pig/Ment and may add Priest someday unless Charged Pig becomes an actual thing

Well Rabbit/Ice would be better. As rabbit has mod's that synergize with Ice more allowing you to do more damage.
() <--- anything that i put in these brackets means the number of mods attainable.

Thump causes the target to take +14% damage from Cold attacks for 10 seconds (x2)
Carrot Power boosts your Direct Cold Damage +27% for 10 seconds (x1)

+55% Cold damage with Rabbit/Ice
Necromancy offers no Synergy with Ice ,and has 0 mods that boost cold damage. (But if you want to try it go for it)
As for charged pig, that would be cool, but i wouldn't bet on it.

For ment id recommend these combinations



Healing.
Mentalism/Bard - Probably the best healer in the game if modded properly as it gives a ton of armor/hp heals for everyone in party along with damage boosting.
Mentalism/Druid - 2nd best gives tanks more survivability.

Dmg.
Hammer/Ment - abuses hammers electric ranged attacks to do massive amounts of lightning damage. Best Ment dps build currently in game!
Lycan/Ment = which is one quick burst attack (somewhat useless afterwards)

Tank.
Ment/Unarmed - Great tank, negates alot of physical damage allowing you to soak alot of damage and support allies at the same time.
If fully geared it could easily be one of the best tank builds in the game, only weakness would be elemental damage, but with a healer and your heals with this combination you shouldn't die.

I've not honestly spent a lot of time looking at the Treasure Effects for synergies, as I don't have anything at 70 yet and I haven't even started on Augmentation/Transmutation, but I see what you are saying now... Interesting...

I do see that there may be possibilities with rabbit/necro with psychic damage, but still probably not a great fit and I like the idea of keeping either rabbit or ice as a feature of any loadout for him as why else be a rabbit?

Dont get where you are getting 1.5k for precision pierce from I use precision pierce with shield and I can only do 1k best depending on the situation inless I am missing a mod which I doubt I think this whole post on necro is flawed if the sword data is wacked

Also theres no way in hell wave of darkness is doing 2.9k-3792 necro isnt that good without resorting to external items even then I still doubt it
