So I own 1 player games. I go to stony get my skeles then go to chaos and corpse explode the crap out of mobs.

Here’s my gear
Shako
Maras
Ali baba
Enigma
Homunc
Trang gloves
2x soj
Arach
Aldure boots
Torch

My skills are
Max skeleton mastery
Max raise skeleton
Max skeleton mage
1 point revive
1 point in all golems (and summon resist)
Max corpse explode
The rest in bone armor

My problem is in a full game corpse explosion doesn’t kill fast and my skeles don’t kill the first few monsters to start the CE domino effect kills.

So wondering if a sort of hybrid build would be better? Possibly try to max bone spear and synergies with 1pnt in CE and 1 point in Skelton’s for my wall of safety.

Thoughts?

You’re casting Amplify Damage before doing Corpse Explosion, right?

merc gear?

you shouldn't have an issue in full games. Amp --> tele --> merc poke --> CE

Yea.

With 1 player my skeles take down 1-3 monsters then I CE those three and the domino effect start and all is good. I cast amp damage first thing.

In a full game my teles take longer to kill one monster. I then CE that one monster and no one else dies. So then they kill one more, I CE, and still the mobs aren’t dead. Eventually it works but takes forever.

Not easy to clear chaos solo in a full game. Wondering if there’s a more efficient build

I see your merc isn't listed here.

Give your merc an eth ca/cv runeword like Insight or Infinity, a ral'd andy's and an ebugged fort. He'll kill things quickly while amp + CE does the rest and the skellies cheerlead.

infy all the day

They way I understand CE, it does damage equal to the slain monsters damage. But the more people in the game the more life/defense/resist on the monsters right? So, it gets exponentially harder for CE to do a good job the more people in the game because the ration of life/damage changes

Right?






So far many peeps saying merc does the damage. (My merc is broke atm) so does this mean I can add less points into skele and save for something else? Since merc is doing the killing?




Woah! Gg advice ty

Corpse explosion damage is still only doing the damage it would do as if the game was a p1 game..

My nec relies on auras for the skeletons from Beast instead of your ali baba
My merc is an a2 offensive one with might aura and wearing infinity for additional -res to the monsters.

Iron golem with pride is optional.

Also its faster to summon your skeleton warriors from anyas portal if you didnt grab the wp

You get more armor from bone armor synergies than you do maxing bone armor by the way.

Increase the level of your skeletons.
When raising your army, use Arm of king Leoric, and not Ali-baba (which is a rather useless item for your build).
Add some summonung skillers.

Don't go hybrid bone/summon, they are much weaker.

Add maybe some points into Amplify damage, so off-screen targets can also be amp'd when you cast CE on them.

Be sure you have the maximal offensive auras on (Might, which is a given from merc, Fanatism with beast, Concentration with Golem, Conviction from merc weapon).

In solo game, against a 100 hp monster, CE deals 35-60 fire + 35-60 physical damge.
The same monster in P8 game has now 450hp, but CE still deals 35-60 + 35-60...

If it's a unique monster, it has 200 hp (in hell) in solo game, and 900 hp in P8 game, and CE still deals 35-60 + 35-60 !
