Sylvarria - That s**t is insane.

[AlterEgo45]

I'm in the mid 60's level wise on my first build - a cabalist that has nearly all their points in Necromancer. My entire character build is based around pets and ranged weapons damage, with high running speed to keep me away from melee.

I've never been killed more than once by any bad guy before, but I am completely outclassed by Sylvarria. I've been killed something like 6 times and I don't last 15 seconds once the fight kicks off.

What I've been trying to do is run up, hit her with Reap Spirit which is rated 19/16, then run away to recover from the damage.

But the tentacles either finish me off or stop me from moving enough that I get hit with more attacks. My pets hardly do anything, since they follow me when I run away.

I've got the impression now that some builds simply aren't going to beat certain bosses. Does anyone else have the same specialties as me, but have better luck with Sylvarria?

For pets it depends on the build your using but mostly its pretty much a no brainer and fairly easy to get so no reason not to.

Have just lv it up to 25, so yes it is a nice buff if it activates now.

When I had Shepherd's Call I had it on the Reap Spirit. No player attack required and keeps mouse 1 free for pet attack if that's what you prefer.

O nice to know...

Yes, Reap Spirit is a good place for Shepherds Call. It's the only place really.

But there are other divinities which are pretty handy, too. Like Revenant with Raise the Dead and Bysmeil's Bonds which has Bysmeils command.

My point is that if the pet build involves so little direct attacking, that means there's no room for Raise the Dead. And Bysmeils Command isn't going to be activated too much (I'm assuming Reap Spirit counts as an attack).

So that being the case, I'm thinking to restructure my divinities to keep the Shepherd, Bysmeils Bonds, and Raven and Jackal (mostly to earn the point minimum for Bysmeils Bonds). Then after that just get constellations which boost resistances, defense, and movement speed.

I'm going to guess most of you don't have room for Revenant?

It seems like there's a whole other way to play Necro which rotates around offensive spells and temporary pets. That's what is great about this game... there might be 3 or 4 vastly different ways to play Necro alone.

I always had shepherds call on COF guarantees nearly 100% uptime

revanant taking damage bonus player aether and vitality, unless you go hybird using bloodknight set and ignore all pet damage, that wont be good. i'm rarerly taking shepherd most of my devotion is for pet attack 200% isn't much worth if the flat damage was low. it's work just fine you only need support pet all damage. less the pet you had the more powerfull they are, and also reducting super bosses life steal.

skeleton only good if you provide them with alot of flat damage, from blood of dreeg, soul harvest, will of crypt, hell fire, storm spirit.

Pet attack is a must on pure pet builds imho

One exception might be the witching hour Cabalist.

I have this gun as mythic version, really crazy + 2 skills on Occultist and Necro+ massive bonus and an awesome additional skill, i have only need to respect my attributes with such a flask (have 2), than i could use it as i do not have enough cunning.

Yeah, it is a crazy OP weapon for a pet build. I am surprised it hasnt been nerfed yet.

[RodHull]

I rather like winter kings sword as well, granted the damage boost to pets and skill bonuses arent as big but the aura is constant, and 24 - 40 cold damage is huge on a group of skelemans or any pets really.

So it is worth respect the attributes? I have allready the bismiel amulett as mythic too+ those boots which give me a 10K shield if hit. So far if i am not careless i will not die, and can clear fast hordes of crap ore heroes/boss monster on Ultimate.

I believe COF is the best for proccing shepherds call, too. It also synergizes well with the damage types the pets do.

i'm suprise if someone can clear malmouth horde ultimate using that weapon. why not using claw of hagaraz, it also increase both of the class skill while you can use shield too.

i'm already try using witch hour build, it's not nerfed but weaken on crucible gladiator, you need a luck to past 170 wave using it, if you got stuned or freezed you died.

I saw a video on one of the threads a bit back where some guy cleared Gladiator 170 in like 5 mins with that build and didnt take a scratch. Mine doesnt work nearly as effective and I die sometimes at endgame stuff. It is probably because I suck but my build is fairly close to his so I should be better.
