Diablo Immortal: The Best PvP Tank Necromancer

Wiltbloom Golem Necromancer Guide

 

The Summoner Necromancer uses the Soulfire primary skill along with Command Golem, Skeletal Mage, Command Skeletons, and Bone Armor. With the new Wiltbloom weapon equipped your Command Golem will now encase you inside your golem giving 50% damage reduction, increased movement speed, and three new golem abilities. This is an extremely tanky PvP Necromancer build that does even better once you have leveled five star gems that deal their own damage. Skeletal mages can be mobile and completely immune to damage with the recommended PvP setup. With the Mirrorictus legendary helmet you will also be able to summon skeleton archers that deal about twice the damage of regular skeletons and they use a ranged attack which helps them to survive. Bone Armor is also helpful for shielding you and your party members while also keeping your summons alive in high damage situations.​

Paragons & Legendary Skills: Wiltbloom Golem Necromancer Build

​​

1. Vanquisher is the best damage paragon for this build because it increases your damage and attack speed on kills.

2. Brawler is the best PvP paragon tree for this build because it makes you extremely tanky and because the cheat death from the Gladiator paragon isn't as valuable for this build because golem form is typically on cooldown after cheat death.

3. Vanquisher is the best paragon tree for increased magic find and has increased damage and attack speed on kills.

4. Harbinger can be used in Erebban for a life shield, for movement speed, and for moving unhindered through enemies.

5. Survivor is the recommended paragon for Vanguard because it gives a cheat death that works in Vanguard.

6. The best legendary skill is Benefactor because it gives a life shield to you and your allies when you use Bone Armor.

7. Below you can find an image for the best paragon for damage and the second image is the best paragon for PvP.

Piercehammer - Command Skeleton now deals increased damage.

​

Helmet

Mirrorictus - Your skeletal champions are replaced with skeletal archers which deal much higher damage.

​

Shoulders

Cutthroat Arch - Your skeletal mages attacks now also increase your critical hit chance.

Chest

Parting Gift - Bone Armor now gives you, your summons, and your allies five charges of damage absorption.

​

Legs

Dead Druthers - Bone Armor now also increases you and your summons attack speed and movement speed.

​​​​

Recommended Sets

1. Shepherd's Call to Wolves (4 Set) - Increases your minions damage and your critical hit chance for each minion.

2. Untouchable Mountebank (4 Set) - Great for PvP for a large life shield which improves your survival.

​

Best Curses

1. Lashed - Using your primary attack gives a chance to generate three crackling whips that damage enemies.

2. Atrophied - Continual damage causes a dark field to appear underneath enemies that deals damage over time.​

​

Best 5 Star Legendary Gems

1. Roiling Consequence - Increases your critical hit chance and causes critical hits to burn enemies.

2. Golden Firmament - Causes a ranged wind damage attack and increases your evasion.

3. Seeping Bile - Gives a 4% chance to poison enemies on hit which deals damage over time.

4. Maw of the Deep - Used at high levels to deal damage, gain a damage buff, draw in enemies, and stun enemies.

5. ​Starfire Shard - Useful for PvP to deal damage and stun enemies inside the Maw of the Deep legendary gem effect.

6. Void Spark - Deals AoE damage that's extremely effective in dungeons and the new PvP map.

​

Best 2 Star Legendary Gems

1. Pain Clasp - Gives increased damage against enemies with a continual damage effect on them.

2. Viper's Bite - Poisons enemies on cooldown and triggers the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem.

3. Mother's Lament - Increases your critical hit chance and causes enemies to bleed.

4. Igneous Scorn (PvM only) - Can be combined with critical hit chance legendary gems to deal damage on critical hits.

​

Best Starter 1 Star Legendary Gems

1. Everlasting Torment - Deals damage over time on crits which triggers the damage increase on Pain Clasp.

2. Berserker's Eye - Increases your damage and critical hit chance but also increases your damage taken. Berserker's Eye should be replaced once you can afford a higher resonance two star or five star gem.

​

Best Familiars

1. Savior Duskprowler - Look for a 170+ Resilience legendary Duskprowler that has Savior which provides a cheat death. The 170+ Resilience lowers the cooldown for Savior but can be lower to make it more affordable.

2. Rare Duskprowler - Relentless Strikes is the next best skill and gives a chance to cast the Duskprowler shield twice in 3 seconds. Other desirable skills include Steel Hide which gives a chance to block, Precision which gives the shield critical hit chance, and Tenacity which lowers the cooldown of the Duskprowler shield skill.

3. Magic Duskprowler - Duskprowler shields are hard to replace so a rare ability or magic Duskprowler is the budget option.

​

Regular Gems

Prioritize Tourmalines for added damage in red sockets and Citrines for Potency which increases harmful effects durations in yellow sockets. You should use your highest refinement Aquamarines and Sapphires which give increased armor and armor penetration in blue sockets. You can also optionally combine all of your Rubies which give life and Topazes which give resistances into one Ruby and one Topaz and socket one of each in your equipment for higher refinement. Refinement increases the main stats of the gear the gem is socketed in and is determined by the quality of the gem.

​

Gem Notes

Viper's Bite, Everlasting Torment, and Seeping Bile deal continual damage which trigger the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem. Frozen Heart which gives a shield isn't recommended for PvP on this build because this build needs damage more than survival. Golden Firmament is a fairly new strong 5 star gem that has wind damage, increased evasion, and triggers Firestorms when mixed with burning damage. Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament both give increased critical hit chance and work well with Igneous Scorn and Everlasting Torment which deal damage on critical hits. You should also consider rolling critical hit damage on every piece of gear with Reforge Stones when using these crit gems. Igneous Scorn is a lower priority than Everlasting Torment until Igneous Scorn is at a high level. Igneous Scorn can eventually be replaced with a 5 star Starfire Shard or 5 star Maw of the Deep which are capable of having a much higher resonance.​
