[2.2] SRS Necromancer Witch guide by Skrylax

Spell echo might not be needed, i watched some people playing srs on alpha and they seemed to hit the summon cap very fast with bad gear even.

What gems would you lvl up in the offweapons?

Is the tree broken or did you just not put any points into ascendancies?

Thank you, Great guide. While I do play SC, the life on your tree is a little low and you are missing some minion damage nodes near the witch tree. I made some adjustments to your tree that I think would fit my play style a little better. I am a fairly new player and this is my first time altering a build guide on my own. Take a look and let me know what you think.

I'd rather take the ES nodes instead of the Int nodes at witch start.
if you need that many life nodes. I'd take Written in Blood instead of Blood Siphon

For tougher boss fights and stuff, doesn't it make sense to try to fit Desecrate in somehow so you can generate corpses to keep offering up?

definitely not viable on HC.

I'm planning to make a necromancer/SRS for HC build on Ascendancy, if it works fine i will post here later. :)

Is it just me or does this post not include points for necromancer from the lab?

you can remove the 3 cast speed nodes from scion and put them into the precision trio for 20dex + 3% movespeed.

you can remove the 4 scion mana nodes and put the three of them into Dreamer trio to save a point.

the entire bottom right half of the tree was removed and reworked for dual curses if people want that instead.


106 pt build (lvl 83)

overall changes: HAS dual curse. 4% LESS maximum life. 5% LESS mana regen, 9% MORE max mana. 3% MORE movespeed. 6% LESS cast speed. 12% LESS aura radius, 8% MORE (-22% vs -30%) mana reserved, 8% MORE aura effect. 3 MORE jewel sockets. could be other changes.

I'll be getting back to ppl their replies later today, also made a refined build myself which ill be posting aswell :).
