for a max fcr summoner, enigma is required. Its the only way to teleport.

Every guide has runewords that are a must. go comment on all of theirs as well.

alot of people are telling me to try and get 75% block, for a necro that requires like 180~ dex(tried it out on single player with a up'd homunc, dont know baout darkforce spawn)

is it worth it? 75% block instead of an extra like 250 hp

oh and whats wrong with mana potting and using a clay golem instead? they slow down bosses a BUNCH

For PVP max block is a good idea. This is strictly pvm so it is not worth it at all. Also, Darkforce has 30% faster cast rate rather than max block %. So Homunc has much better block than darkforce does. If you are going to do the max block route, you need spirit.

Decrept slows the bosses more than plenty. The clay golem is better pvp than iron golem because iron would get too expensive since you have to use an item every time you die or he does.

Lol. MB fo PNB/PSN necro - maybe. MB for summoner - total joke. You will not be hit, you don't need anything beside vita.

That's irrelevant, they're still readily available.

Nobody is acting like the characters won't work without the runeword, it just so happens, the runeword is the best choice for the build and if it's easily attainable it doesn't make sense NOT to use it. People that play according to these guides aren't looking for a challenge they're looking for a fun, efficient, fast killing machine, the necro laid out in this fred is just that.


Then don't read the guide?

it's common knowledge that self-found players are in the minority,especially on a D2 forum such as this.

I got max res w/ beast, and my iron golem has never died with just 1 hard point. :-\

Naj's Puzzler? Charged amulet with teleport charges?

Think outside of the box.

You are 100% correct in thinking that I am picking on you and you alone. Come on, I don't have time to comment on all of them, just the silly ones that make no sense.

Honestly, it was a summoner guide. Summoners require absolutely no gear what so ever.

His is titled "The Ultimate PVM Summoner"

Did you really expect high end items not to be involved?

I would expect not to read "a must" when something is not. Liked the guide, but yeah, naked summoners can manage, this is not a ultimate pvm summoner imho, it's ultimate ladder climber at besr.
