Skeletal Mage with the Singularity rune can end up as one of the most substantial damage outputs for a Necro.The Necro has quite the toolkit available, with pure damage-dealing skills, pets, curses, and utility skills that reduce damage taken or provide a quick escape. Blood Rush and Simulacrum spend health to cast as part of the base ability, and others like Bone Spear can spend health as part of a Skill Rune to increase damage.

Depending on the build, the Necro can also tap into a secondary resource: their health pool. Necros rely on either their Primary abilities or Devour to restore their resource pool. Their resource is Essence, termed a static resource as it does not decay like the Barbarian’s Rage, but neither does it automatically regenerate like other casters. The Necro’s primary attribute is Intelligence - same as the other caster classes, Wizard and Witch Doctor - although Vitality is surprisingly critical.

Such swift deaths are avoidable with a quick application of their evasive and defensive abilities. As a caster, they are very squishy and can be taken down by elites in a single shot. Wielding scythes and phylacteries as class-unique gear, the Necro can directly inflict damage or summon pets to dispense pain on their behalf. The Necromancer is a caster centered around weaponizing blood, bones, and the undead. Why not try the newest addition to D3‘s lineup, the Necromancer? What is a Necromancer? Season 18 has just ended, so you have a bit of time to brainstorm what class you’d love to try first. But how can you get your Diablo fix now? Don’t despair Diablo 3 is waiting for you to join in. BlizzCon’s big Diablo 4 announcement came in with a blood-soaked bang.
