My experience playing a necro

[Dannermax]

Good points Hyper.

As far as i know, you just have to do 1 point of damage yourself, to get full xp from the kill. It was actually not untill lvl 46 i could hold a constant stream of pulls, when fearkiting blue/light blue conned spectres with the COB up.

Keep cob up alll the time, stick pet to mob, cast dooming darkness, cast undeadfear (lasts longer than the regular fear) cast asystole dot and last but not least vampyric embrace to make up for the hp loss of COB. DD spirit tab spell now and then is needed aswell..

This technique wasnt doable before lvl 46 for me, because the cob would leech too much of my hp. So yes i have found out that cob is really awesome!!

You prolly have some lower kind of Skeletal form spell, and perhaps you have vampyric embrace?

Also another thing thats kept me from dying countless times, is having diamondskin up. It consumes 1 peridot to cast (20pp) but well worth it.
