At the moment, my necro has two sets of armor; minion master armor (with bloodstained boots), and a set of cabalist armor for the beneficial energy bonus. But, now that I think about it, is the bonus of mm armor worth it compared to the energy from the cabalist armor? Personaly, I would take the extra energy which can be very crucial at some moments rather than the armor bonus of the mm armor. However, I do find the bonus from the necromancer bloodstained boots very beneifical. In terms of MMing I would have full cabalists, but a set of bloodstained boots incase if I am mming.

Now that I find myself buying FoW armor for my necromancer, I am going to buy a full set of cabalist for the energy bonus than a set of bloodstained boots. What armor do you prefer for your necro? With skills such as dark bond, you can get past the unpresent armor bonuses from the mm armor.

I personally would go with the + energy armor with the bloodstained boots (thats what I have with my FOW set)

The + energy is better overall because you can use it with any necro build and get the benefits

personally, I MM with necrotic since its the highest AL for necro armor (70) and with soul reaping you really shoudlnt have energy problems. especially once you get to 10 minons since youre just refreshing them. Also I use OoB when MM so i have no need for the +7 energy from the armor.
