I recently aquired a eth rep point guard. Was thinking maby poison dagger ..I know a necro won't be able to run up and stab anyone with a range 1 weapon should I keep this on my charger? Works amazing for that build. Who uses poison dagger is it a fun build?

spear necro is one of the best possible pvp classes
poison nova/CE necro is a very fast pvm build that requires basically no items
summon necro can complete the game, including ubers, on hardcore with no items equipped

I'm still going to build the poison dagger necro. Maby make nova/ poison dagger pvm NEC. Will be using eth rep fools point guard. Z bug bramble. I'll have to check ias tables. Visionary may not be needed since pvm but maby.

Looks like I'll need 100 ias with point guard.. Since my fools weap dont have Las I will need 30 ias from helm. 20 from gloves 20 hilords( deadly strike work on psn dagger?) And 45 from artisan kite sheild of deflect. That will make my psn nova a joke but maby will work pvm. If I can walk the game with this build is be happy. May upgrade sheild kite sheild sux on max block but do I need max block with bone armour?

You probably won't have any difficulty killing monsters with poison dagger, but you will find it to be incredibly slow as you are only hitting 1 monster at a time and waiting for some seconds for them to die. When I messed around with the build years ago I found myself just using nova all the time, it's so much more effective.

I wouldn't bother too much with max block, you will have a merc and golem wandering about to distract monsters. Heck, you could put 1 point in summoning skills and have a meat shield army. Better off with humunculous or something like that.
