Need Help With Minion Master

Curses works well with a minion master... slowing warriors, using barbs so the minions do more damage with each hit, etc. Read the Necro Basics thread at the top of the page... it's all covered in there.

Monk secondary for Heal Area (for minions, but gets kind of useless with Verata's Sacrifice and such)
A good option is mesmer secondary; you can leech mana (minions have a rather high mana cost)

I've always wondered about the veratas sacrifice. But I use heal area along with it to make gigantic armies that dissapear when I map out.

thx guys, i tweaked the pvp minion master dude and the mesmer thing aint too bad...at least for competition arenas and also since your minions scatter, heal area isnt always effective in combat.
if anyone has any other ideas lemme know soon

You trying to make Minion Master for 4v4 Arenas?
PrismOfRedLight
Nah, I personally think minion master necros arent that great in 4v4 arenas, however I would like some ability in 4v4 mostly for ascalon and shiverpeak arenas. Im mainly making it for gvging and havin' fun.

You will be denied corpses in tombs and gvg, unless they dont run corpse disposal but most do.
Its prob better to make Minion build by sacrifices and get an army at the start of the match rather than hoping on enemy corpses. Wells are much more beneficial to pvp than any minion could be

Glyphs affect necro spells too and the expensive stuff like summon minions or fiends can be cut down quite well with glyph of lesser energy.

Wells are much more beneficial to pvp than any minion could be Ya, however if your other guildys can kill some enemys or get killed themselves you've got a couple corpses at least, but also in order to be effective they have to be in larger numbers than just a few. I do agree on the wells being more useful but only if your enemys stand in 'em (well of suffering) or if your allys are smart enough, or rather just pay enough attention to you casting a well. Thx for the info but remember I'm looking more for a secondary profession rather than battle info.

If you run Glyph of Energy as your Elite, you can also carry Meteor Storm and Firestorm for PvE. AoE spells feed Soul Reaping like crazy. Then you can use the Glyph on Summon Bone Fiend.

I don't know how effective this would be, but what about ranger for edge of extinction? cast death nova on your minions, then just wait for your minions to all run up to the enemy, then cast taste of death.
