Jagged Bones Animate Shambling Horror Animate Bone Fiend Putrid Bile Death Nova Protective Spirit Aegis Signet of Lost Souls
Template Code: OANTUYT+Sap6oiKQBENoeIgoqC

Equipment

• Armor : 1 Bloodstained Insignia on the head/hands/boots, Survivor Insignia on the remaining slots, Attunement runes.
• Weapons : A Death Magic 20/20 set with +12 energy focus.

Counters

• Corpse consumption, see Variants for help

Variants

• Hex removal in hex-heavy areas with little to no conditions. Convert Hexes, Remove Hex, and Reverse Hex are good choices.

Usage

• Call a target so all necros lock onto it.
• The SS necro will start putting hexes on, while the MM will accumulate minions to do damage through Barbs and Death Nova
• Vanquish the mission/area while repeating the previous steps.

Notes

• All will go on auto-pilot, even in areas with less party members.
• You may need some micromanagement to flag your heroes out of AoE spells and environmental hazards.
• The flaws in this build are its susceptibility to interrupt and its lack of hex removal. Having hex removal, interrupt(s), and Pain Inverter is suggested for the other players/heroes.
• Use this build with the following henchman set-up: At least one protection hench, one warrior or dervish, one support hench and one elementalist. For harder areas, take both monk henchmen. You are, of course, interchangeable with all of these professions.
• If there are no corpses available for any reason, it may be better to just bring a different team, as the MM will not be able to provide substantial energy to keep the team going.

Trivia

• This team build is often called Sabway by the community after its creator.
