Enhanced Bone Splinters: Bone Splinters has a 30% chance to fire 2 additional projectiles if cast while you have 50 or more Essence.Each subsequent time an enemy is hit by the same cast of Bone Splinters, you gain 1 Essence.

Because of this we have instead listed skills we recommend taking, you can then adjust the build to fit your playstyle. This Build does not require several skills to function, allowing for more flexibility when building your character. We recommend imprinting this Aspect on a 2 Handed Weapon to increase cooldown reduction upon triggering Corpse Explosion. Glove: This aspect is required for this build as it allows us to automatically trigger Corpse Explosion and lower the cooldown of Blood Mist. This build is cheap to build, only requiring 1 legendary aspect, while having a lot of potential to be improved upon with other aspects as shown in the images below.

Note: This builds NEEDS the required aspect, as it automatically triggers Corpse Explosion and lowers the cooldown of blood mist increasing its uptime. Bloodmist also applies Immune to your character, allowing you to ignore heavy hitting attacks and heals your missing Health.

We recommend this build due to its high AoE damage output and tendency to snowball as more corpses are generated. Freshly made accounts will be able to unlock skill slots at level 2, and 4 more skill slots at level 5. Note: During the Early to Mid game, players will not have access to most Legendary Aspects.

This section aims to help players create a skill build to help with the early to mid game. While there may be several viable builds for the Necromancer, it can be overwhelming to create a build.
