General Info
The SS Nuker is a popular PvE build, used in both farming groups and storyline progression. With proper aggro control, an SS Nuker is a devastating weapon against computer-controlled groups.

Equipment

 * Necromancer armor of personal preference.
 * a 20/20 cold damage weapon and 20/20 offhand, such as the Wailing Wand from Gertrud or Telamon and Villnar's Glove or The Shadestone (as long as you have 9 blood magic).
 * Wayward Wand is really good for this build.
 * The Stonereaper is also good for this build.
 * Nehpek's Focus is an easier to find offhand that works just as well as the Villnar's Glove.

Usage

 * Be conscious of the aggro distribution around the tanking characters. The success of this build relies on proper placement of Spiteful Spirit, and poor placement can be the difference between eliminating the group and a wasted spell.
 * Before battle, cast Arcane Echo.
 * Choose a target and cast Spiteful Spirit, followed by Reckless Haste. Assassins are ideal targets, due to their higher attack speed.
 * Select a second nearby target and cast a second Spiteful Spirit.
 * Cast Spiteful Spirit on any remaining foes as energy and recharging skills allow.
 * Use Defile and Desecrate as secondary damage sources.
 * Use Signet of Lost Souls as needed.

Variants

 * Signet of Corruption for more energy management.
 * Take Necrosis or Pain Inverter for more single-target damage.
 * Parasitic Bond should you need a cover hex or healing.
 * In areas with many enemies and corpses, consider taking Signet of Sorrow for fast and energy-free damage.
 * Suffering for additional degeneration.
 * Consume Corpse for Corpse control.
 * Blood Ritual to help your party with energy.
 * Price of Failure for additional damage with Reckless Haste.
 * Strip Enchantment or Revealed Enchantment for control of strong enchanted foes.
 * Enfeebling Blood is highly useful in HM where there are higher number of melee enemies.
 * Swap Desecrate Enchantments or Defile Enchantments for Foul Feast and then fill the optional slot with Plague Sending.
 * Move Blood Magic to Inspiration Magic and use Auspicious Incantation in replacement of BR on the echoed version of SS for better energy management for yourself.
 * A different resurrection skill like Sunspear Rebirth Signet can replace Resurrection Signet.
 * Should your secondary profession be swapped, consider taking a hard res like Rebirth or Death Pact Signet.
