No str bug
This comes in handy while facing assassins and druids. However, it will work versus any class. What this does it hides your frw percentage from the server. E.G. You have 115 frw but it only shows you having 30 frw. The easiest way to do it (Thanks to Tails Chao for telling me) is to use a Scarab Enigma, 2/20fcr/str/life Amulet, and a Str Ring. Every time you die, flash (pick up and put back down) your ring and amulet and you will be str bugged

Druids are one of the hardest classes for a necromancer to duel. The first thing you will want to do is get your DR setup on (CoA, trangs, white, spirit, arachs, 2x fcr rings, soul spurs (or treks)) Second, when you start the duel, try to take out their zoo first by using teeth. When you see their oak die and most of their wolves, do your best to get a name lock and spear them.[/B[B]] Repeat this process until they are dead. If you are in a situation where they have stomped you, WSG out of their stomp, and spear them. Another technique is walking and teething/spearing, however, this will make the duel much much longer. Another technique would be a walking technique, this would require a lot of frw. You will walk, name lock, and teeth/spear (your choice). bone spear does more damage and pierces 3 wolves, and teeth can take out the whole zoo at once. However, bone spear will damage the druid as well as the zoo. Another tactic of killing a druid is to make a train of bone spirits and try to lure them into the train. This will not only cause massive damage, but it will also make them fhr'd

At the start of the duel, while they are leaping, name lock and cast bone spirits. If they begin to walk away, bone prison them. Doing this gives the spirits time to catch up and cause damage. If you want a more offensive technique, at the start of the duel, rush the character and stomp with your golem so that it slows his attack. Then you can spear or spirit. Whichever you feel is more effective. If a barbarian stomps you and starts to whirlwind you, bone prison yourself. This makes it harder for the barbarian's whirlwind to hit you because it is hitting the bone prison instead of you. This tactic will not work if you are dueling a fast barbarian. In this case, if he starts leaping you, teleport away as fast as possible. If they are constantly leaping, start a train of bone spirits and lure him into it.

Smiters are usually no problem for necromancers. All you have to do is use your DR setup. When they are charging you, cast a bone wall around you, or bone prison them. Then spear them (not spirit because smiters get out of the prison quickly and the spirits move too slow). Another way of killing smiters is name locking them while they charge away and casting a few spirits and then bone prisoning.

One of the best 1v1 mirror matchess; NvN. You will use the same setup as you were facing a hammerdin, but instead of waterwalks, use aldurs. NvN requires you to have a clay golem at all times. Bo him if possible. This is because when you stomp the other necro, your golem will block all of the hits. Thus giving you the advantage for the kill. If they restomp (You stomp them but they stomp again to get on top), spear in the upward direction, pointing a little to the right or left (most people call this upspam, but it is upsear, a gm technique in nvn). Since spirit is not allowed in NvN, you must only use teeth, and bone spear. No curses are allowed either. In my personal opinion, if you just walk spear, you will win more often. This is because while you are walking, you can get an easier name lock and wait for them to stomp you to upspear.
