The Ultimate Guide to Bone Knights!

[douglas1999]

I am having an amazing time leveling my SK. I had played a warrior before, but never a necro. But rather than make either of them, I just rolled a SK for the first time. It's a ton of fun. You can tank and also solo easily if you can't find a group. I think people are turned off because they think "well, if I'm not a warrior, who will tank aow in velious??". The answer is a warrior will, but tanks generally are desired at every level range for the entire life of the three expansions we're all playing. Let somebody else be the neckbeard warrior, SK's are way more fun!

This has been a half-endorsement of necros.

SKs are great tanks but by 30, my boneknight was knocking down 13 spawn, level 24-28, every 16.5 minutes.

Just make an iksar and enjoy that regen, the rest is a footnote.

What's your recommendation for an Iksar roll as far as point allocation? I'm thinking I'm going to do what I never thought I would and delete the Dark Elf for a lizard.

is all of this with classic experience only or did u try this also on kunark/velious on blue?

I have a feeling mobs hit harder there for their level compared to classic.

This is just in classic so far really. Is a new world of bone science!!

But looking ahead at items ... I think it will keep up. Even without limited time items (like rod of annihilation), can still get some nice weapons and armors to get the AC and things up.

Especially with velious raid items! Whewww, that build I posted earlier had like 2600 HP, and 1400 AC... it was bonkers.

So, looking forward to trying it.

I'd put 20 into dex, and 10 into int.

10 sta is only worth 24 hp at level 60... and agility don't do much (a point or two of AC)

Strength is ok though, I put 5 into strength, and could see doing 10 or even 15 (instead of putting 25 into dex and 5 into strength).

for this bild u definitely have to go full dex on creation
