When Season 21 introduced the new Masquerade of the Burning Carnival Set and buffed Grasps of Essence, players finally got a chance to play this skill at a competitive level. However, Necromancers have many skills with a strong identity, including the iconic Corpse Explosion! Tap Devour whenever there are a lot of corpses around you and use Bone Spikes as your filler move.When Necromancers got released in Season 11, they instantly became the top dog on the leaderboards using Corpse Lance with the Trag'Oul's Avatar Set, overshadowing pretty much every other skill the class had at its disposal.

Pop your Simulacrum before dumping Skeletal Mages to double up on the minions. Target and enemy with Command Skeletons and drop Skeletal Mages everywhere on the map. Use Land of the Dead whenever possible, as it will allow you infinite Essence due to Devour. Let’s go through the various selections of items and abilities. User Melancholy cataloged this Minion build. On Diablo Fans, the community creates builds for all to use and enjoy. However, it does offer a unique experience, allowing you to actively control your minions to deal damage, granting stark contrast to the traditionally passive pet builds for the Witch Doctor class. The Minion build has not been very popular on the live servers (it was hit with a significant nerf on the Diablo 3 PTR). At the time of its release, it appears that the Necromancer has three: the Bone Storm build, the Blood build and the Minion build. Coming up with your own build is good, but there are almost always one to two optimal builds for any given class. When we say late game, we mean pushing higher level Torment difficulties and Greater Rifts. Maximizing your offense and defense is crucial to a late-game build in Diablo 3: The Rise of the Necromancer.
