Summon necro skill?

[andrewexd]

Im trying to make a pvm/pvp summon necromancer. Im wondering what skills to invest in? I hear mages are pretty useless so Im planning to max Skele mastery and skele raise. What other 2-3 skill should i max? (of course i get bone armor and my curses) Also one more question if I use arm of kind leoric to summon my skellies then switch to beast for fanat will few of my skellies die because of the skill loss from AOKL to beast? thanks.

I don't think you would lose too many, it pretty much stops increasing eventually. I wouldn't expect to lose more than 2.

I would max Skeleton and It's mastery, as well as bone armor and probably a golem. I don't think you will be needing to max any curses, a few points will do. I would also suggest putting some points into revive or a golem. With a golem, its easier to kill monsters in the cold plains while you raise the skeles.

Mages do help in some way. Distraction and those poison mages can do quite the damage. You can try and see summon necro build that is stickied.
