Need help for my Necro

I need help editing my Necro warrior. I put some slashes on the side, meaning that I need help choosing.

Highest possible energy bonus armor and shield.

N/W 20

Curses 12
Death Magic 11
Swordsmanship 10
Tactics 5-6

Insidious Parasite
Faintheartedness
Weaken Armor
Sever Artery
Gash
Hamstring/Resurrection Signet
Virulence{E}/Tainted Flesh{E}
"Watch Yourself!"/Bonetti's Defense

The entire point of this is to inflict several conditions on the enemy. I wanted to put maybe Tainted Flesh on first at the beginning, then slamming Watch Yourself and run in, putting a bunch of hexes on first. I know the Insidious, Faintheartedness, and the Weaken Armor work perfectfully, but for Hamstring and stuff I'm not so sure. Virulence might be better as this is a Condition killer and also this works especially well against warriors, and the Weakness would help. Also, Bonetti's might be good also because I need to cast these spells all at once, meaning I'll have a pretty big lack of energy.

Comments?

I just made this one up based on your character. Check it out.

The main idea is to use Awaken the blood, followed by Signet of agony and Chilblains to damage the foe for around 60 and you yourself suffer from bleeding and poison for 13+ seconds. Use "I Will Survive!" for 10 seconds of +6 Life Regeneration, and at the end of that time Plague Signet {E} will transfer the conditions to your foe. Power Attacks and Distracting Blows followed by Barbed Signet for another 52+40 damage will be pretty good.

W/N
Strength 11+1
Blood 11
Curses 8

(9 points left over)


Plague Signet {E} (0,2,20)
Transfer all negative conditions from yourself to target foe. (50% chance of failure with Curses of 4 or less.)

Signet of Agony (0, .75, 15) (Blood)
Sacrifice 10% of maximum health and suffer from bleeding. All nearby foes take 10-37 damage.

Chilblains (25, .75, 15) (Curses)
You become poisoned for 3-13 seconds. Nearby foes are struck for 10-37 cold damage and lose one "Enchantment".

"I Will Survive!" (5, 0, 60)
You gain health regeneration of 3 for each condition you are suffering. This regeneration expires after 5-10 seconds.

Awaken the Blood (10, 1, 45)
For 20-39 seconds, you gain +2 Blood Magic and +2 Curses, but whenever you sacrifice health, you sacrifice 50% more than the normal amount.

Power Attack (5, 0, 4)
If this attack hits, you strike for 10-26 more damage.

Distracting Blow (5, 0, 10)
Swipe your weapon at the target, doing no damage but disrupting the target's current action (and the actions of foes adjacent to your target).

Barbed Signet (0, 2, 30)
Sacrifice 8% maximum health. You steal 18-52 health from target foe.



I would actually like this build better if Life Transfer were the elite.

The goal should be to try and be fully recharged when "Awaken the Blood" is ready again, so you can restart the cycle, but you will not have energy problems except when using Power Attack and Distracting Blow over and over.

Look at the skills energy cost and regen times.

Skill (Energy Cost, Cast Time, Recharge, Duration)

Plague Signet {E} (0,2,20,13) (Curses)
Signet of Agony (0, .75, 15) (Blood)
Chilblains (25, .75, 15) (Curses)
"I Will Survive!" (5, 0, 60)
Awaken the Blood (10, 1, 45)
Power Attack (5, 0, 4)
Distracting Blow (5, 0, 10)
Barbed Signet (0, 2, 30)

Life Transfer is (10, 2, 30, 11), but may cause this build energy problems.

What do you think?

I Just noticed you had a N/W, not a W/N.

The key is how to charge adrenaline. The idea with this build is to cast Demonic Flesh for +176 hitpoints. Then use your healing signet to heal. When you first encounter a foe, cast desperation blow on them.

After you stand up you're either going to be attacking or defending, based on the circumstance. If you are in a position to attack, use Evecerate {E} followed by Axe Twist. If you are in a defensive position, cast price of failure and then Shield Stance. While in Shield stance use Signet of Healing for +130 Health. Axe Twist or Eviscerate will charge, whichever one you need to use.

I don't like this build because it has no disenchantments or interrupts. I also dont like it because it can't really kill anything that is really strong, just wound and weaken the target foe. And if a team can remove conditions, it's pretty useless.

The good thing about this build is you could potentially have a foe suffering from Deep wound, weakness, crippled, and bleeding simultaneously. It's defensive, gives you extra hitpoints, and Price of Failure is a 30 second skill. Another good thing is Desperation blow which seems like a joke, here would actually be put to use.


N/W

Axe Mastery 9
Tactics 11
Blood Magic 10+1
Curses 4+1
(Unused 4)

Skill
Desc.
(Energy, Cast Time, Recharge Time, Adrenaline)

Desperation Blow
If this attack hits, you strike for +10-34 damage, and your target either suffers a Deep Wound, begins Bleeding, or becomes Crippled. After making a Desperation Blow, you fall down. (Tactics)
(5, 0, 7, 0)

Shield Stance
For 8-18 seconds, while wielding a shield, you have a 75% chance to block incoming attacks, but you move 33% slower. (Tactics)
(5, 0, 60, 0)

Eviscerate {E}
If Eviscerate hits, you strike for 1-24 more damage and inflict a deep wound, lowering your target's maximum health by 20% for 5-17 seconds. (Axe Mastery)
(0, 0, 0, 7)

Axe Twist
If this attack hits a foe suffering from a deep wound, you strike for 1-16 more damage and that foe suffers from Weakness for 20 seconds. (Axe Mastery)
(0, 0, 0, 8)

"For Great Justice!"
For 15 seconds, your adrenal skills charge faster.
(10, 0, 45, 10)

Healing Signet
You gain 40-130 health. You have -40 armor while using this skill.
(0, 2, 4, 0)

You have two skills left over and I'd try

Demonic Flesh
Sacrifice 20% of max Health. For 30-54 seconds, your maximum health is increased by 80-176. (Blood)
(5, 1, 60)

Price of Failure
For 30 seconds, target foe has a 25% chance to miss with attacks and takes 6-25 damage whenever that foe misses in combat. (Curses)
(10, 3, 10, 0)

If price of failure isn't your cup then Well of Blood.

Let me know what you think.

use axes....it works nice with weaken armor

You seem to be taking the worst of necro skills to compliment your warrior status. Looks like you're anti-warrior more than anything, but just know that without skills, simply tainted flesh and 2 attack skills will earn you a mend ailment, and a quick death.

well, heres a n/w build that i use:

(dont remember stats that well)
16 blood
9 soul reaping
9 swordsmanship

sever artery
demonic flesh
vampiric touch
dark pact
plague touch
strip enchantment
life trasfer
well of blood

this build is more anti-caster than anti-warrior, but it works well against warrios too (except hammer)
