Vit - Dam reduce set (ex: vs Dru)


Vit - High life set (ex: Nec duel)


Block- Dam reduce / high resistence set (ex: vs Melee char)


Some backup gears


All of the above items stands a chance to be a trophy one.
Let me put them together

some are ten ten, some are not.

I guess 8 / 10 overall.

Why wouldn't you berber that helm vs chamber? 1 soj skill is not worth 8dr...😐

Reason 1 is Bui’s throphy thread. He has Cham ber his 53 life 20@res 2/30/20/2 circlet. I think he uses cham ber circlet to against druid for some good reasons.

Reason 2: for the melee char, I’d prefer use max block with ss. So the ber ber seems to be useless.

Someone told me that you are one of the best nec around. So I will ber ber next 2/30/20/2 circlet

Ber/Ber is the way to go vs druid and my recommendation for that hat. Cham/Ber is for FPK. NvN should be JahJah.

Nice collection. Let’s see the full necro stats with each of the set ups.

overall a 9/10 imho...


i personally would prefer cham/ber too, just bcuz u can get rid of the raven, gain some dmg and if ur playin againt any caster in most of the cases u dont need that much dr...

Thanks a lot for your comments. Just curious about the mana management. Is that a minimum mana/mana reg to be assured in your opinion ? I am not comfortable with less than 1200 mana
Another thing that I do not mention is the use of eth spirits. I am told that it is BM even used in the CTA side. Is that true ?

I will post the full stats in D2R discussion after some days when @96 lvl.
I have also saved your stats posted in the 2/20/59mana/19@res ammy auction thread. I could said they are "comparable", will have less life but will have 8% more (as is adviced ber ber instead of cham ber) dr and more mana.

800 mana is the lowest it should be on necro. Obviously more is better. 2nd ring when not using raven should be wisp/natures peace for oak sage. For NvN, you will run a BK ring. I don’t really use SOJ for end game build.

How long do your duels last where you're burning that much mana? If you are 1v1ing and don't need cold stack, use mages. 800 mana is plenty on a necro, if they're longer duels just drop mana. Most pub duels are like 1 min max so should be fine. If you are good on res, get some mana life scs to help.

I haven't heard anything about eth being bm tbh, if you're rerolling spirits constantly on your main side to save 10str then whatever lol. Only rule semi related is eth weapons because of the damage output they have vs regular and trying to stop the cheese in tournaments.

Berber with 30frw is definitely better than chamber despite what the guy said above. If you're vs another caster then you'll likely swap your helm out anyways and then switch a ring as well. If you're vs a druid, slap raven in, if vs a zon/smiter, put on bk and you still keep the 16% Dr.

Personally I usually just leave the same gear on and duel vs changing it up to get 1 extra skill or whatever. White tgod raven, berber helm... Covered for pretty much any matchup in a pub and most ppl there aren't good even to warrant a switch lol. I'll be using that setup I mentioned but no berber just a shael in my helm... Cuz poor 😂.

In fpk it's basically the same gear as well and when amped any Dr you have is basically useless, unless the nec dies early and you can let amp fade then you've got some "advantage".

My 0.02c 👍
