And finally Blood ritual is the ultimate ability that gets the necro rid of mana potions, while adding max HP and lowering blood magic consumption to its half. Revive skill not only copies monster abilities, it even add additional damage and hit chance. Corpse explosion needs no further intro as long as you play Diablo 2. Raise skeleton is the main summoning spell and skeletons benefit from VIT points.

Other than raise zombie, the rest of Necro’s abilities are all super useful.

In the end, the Necro will have more than 200 points in VIT before items. Hence the necro needs to add points mostly in VIT, a proper amount of points to MAG, and a few to STR just to meet item requirements.

The core of necromancer is his blood magics, which means spells that consume HP instead of MP.

Necro was my favorite character in Diablo 2, and this HD mod did a great job migrating him while keeping all his essential features. Personally I even feel Necro is easier to use than Rogue, as long as you play him correctly.

Necromancer is surely the most mouse-click-friendly character.
