Necro because that's what I played on september 23 and I got to 90 before in a single day and I could farm everything alone while all the sorcs were barely able to get past act1 hell
You'll definitely see my name on the ladder for a long time

I want to try Fire Traps with Fireblast and maybe Death Sentry (low points). Maybe fun after the changes, always loved the visuals :)))))

trap, with a tele charge staff bought by akara, chaos Nika runs ez with low eq


Can she do Chaos with low eq?

Yeah, Assassin is my most favorite char, and I just made a CTA out of eth Ettin Axe today, which others can't understand why I did it :)

Back to the topic, can she Chaos without Infinity?

Is she pure (light) trapper or any kind of hybrid?

thx :)

yeah man. skeletons damage is not gear-dependant (other than +skill)
amp damage is always flat +100% damage (breaks immunities) and so is corpse explosion, always flat 60-100% damage (although you can buff it with amp damage curse)
regardless of skill level of corpse explode and the curse which only give both of them a bigger radius, you're always doing health%-based damage. You can farm everything very quickly, very efficiently, with no gear.
And you can get free skeletons in the pindle portal, so you dont actually need to kill anything in order to spawn them in the first place
throw amp on a pack, send in your 8 skeletons that deal 150 damage each (+150 with amp, x40% with merc might aura, you're looking at 450+ damage per hit) and as soon as one mob dies, corpse explode the rest and packs melt in an instant

Yeah, thats why the sorc hell record is 60% of the necro one. Pretty much a difference of 2½ hours, and unless you are speed running elite, its likely to be even more.
You do know that the sorcs who struggle in a1 hell can just tele straight to Andy right?

Here's another prediction against your "you'll be seeing me on the ladder" - There will be lvl 85+ sorcs before you even get to a5 hell.
