Witch - Any good Necro melee builds for 3.1? - Forum

Hello,

This is my first season playing POE and I started the league with the intention of playing a summoner, but didn't enjoy it. Leveling was a breeze just wasn't crazy about the playstyle. I switched to as Cyclone Slayer because it was always one of my favorite Diablo builds.

Anyway, I'd like to revisit the Witch (lvl 70 Necro). I looked through the sticky, but the melee builds haven't been updated for 3.1. Would it be possible to run a setup similar to this using Necro?

How viable would it be for most of the content? Seems like a CWDT setup with desecrate/bone offering/flesh offering would be OK. Again, I'm new so not sure if there's something about the Raider that works better for a build like this.

If that's not an option, can someone offer their opinion on what Necro melee builds could handle most content in this league?

Thanks for your time!
