You need to buy new gear and put all superior runes on it, and a -50 health grim cesta and a max rod with hopefully some skill recharge/cast time bonuses.

Skill Points (with superior runes): 7 Illusion, 14 Healing, 13 Prot, 12 Divine

Archane Echo Spell Breaker when you are going somewhere you think there might be nightmares.
Whenever in a fight pretty much cast prot even if it has plenty of time left; it can be interrupted.
For Bladed Ataxe just alternate between prot and breeze.
For Graspings the following is optional, but for smites you MUST A.Echo Sympathetic Visage.
If you die you will be Vengeanced to switch out your cesta or armor (if you have died alot, but your first time is just the cesta), then Rebirthed. There are other things to fine-tune but that’s the basics.


N/Mo:
Spiteful Spirit
Desecrate Enchantments
Awaken the Blood
Watchful Spirit
Balthazar's Spirit
Essence Bond
Vengeance
Rebirth

works same as Mo/W N/Me build . but you can die as many times as you want and still get rez.

feel free to hit me up on the game if you have any questions. my name in there is pup go

Its definitely interesting, but I'm wondering about the DPS with no echo for SS.
Mind posting any screenies of a finished run etc?

Why is healing at 14? You do know that 13 healing has the max amount of pips for mending (4)?

^ and that max health regen is 10 (if i'm not mistaken) so if you keep mending up (+3) and a max (13 in healing) Breeze up occasionally thats the max health regen, so anything more is just wasted attribute points.

well anything more is ok against burning of dryders and the bleeding of attaxe. But generally unneccessary.

Does the N/Mo really need that much energy though? Having both Balth Spirit and Essence bond on the Monk would be kinda overkill wouldn't it? I guess with four enchants on it gets tight, but that is still a lot of energy. I guess the Watchful Spirit is so that....wait what is that for? If you are already at max regen I dont see why that is needed except to let you go without breeze a little longer.

I thought Balthazar's Spirit gives energy to the target, in this case the monk, and not the caster, the necro.
Watchful spirit because... I don't know.

seems to me the nec is running balth for the monks benefit, note the monks lack of balth

yes the balt is for the monk . keeps his energy up .
healing is at 14 with head scar +1 healing + 3 sup rune. so breeze is nine and mending is 4 .
when you fight the smites echo the vissage. and thats enough for the necro to ss them .

Improvements from my point of view:

Drop prot to around 10, bring up illusion to about 9. Thats enough for a N/Mo to kill all smites - you can then drop echo because you don't need it for SB or SV. With that slot, put in guardian to help you tank more.

On the necro, drop AtB for suffering. It's a cover hex and overall I find it more effective than AtB.

On the build, yeah, i know some people that run this. It does mean dropping the arcane echo for vengeance/rebirth, but at least it lets you rez a dead 55er.
