Diablo Immortal: The Best Summoner Necromancer

Summoner Necromancer Guide

Summoner Necromancers can use the Soulfire primary skill along with Skeletal Mage, Command Golem, Command Skeletons, and Bone Armor. Bone Armor is very important for keeping your summons alive in high damage situations and it also shields you and your party. A Devouring Golem is recommended from the Rotted Harvest weapon because it devours corpses to increase its damage, life, and size and because it has a large area of effect slow aura. Your skeletal mages can be mobile with the recommended legendary power and they'll deal increasing damage based on how long they channel their attack on enemies. Skeletal mages can also be mobile and completely immune to damage with the recommended PvP setup. With the Mirrorictus legendary helmet you can also summon skeleton archers that deal about twice the damage of regular skeletons while attacking with a ranged attack which helps them survive in high damage situations.

Paragons & Legendary Skills: Summoner Necromancer Build

1. Slinger is the best damage paragon for this build because it increases your damage and critical hit chance with range.

2. Gladiator is the best PvP paragon tree for this build because it gives a cheat death and helps with loss of control.

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 recommended for Vanguard so that deaths take you to one life instead of killing you.

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 a picture for the best paragon for damage and the second image is the best paragon for PvP.

2. Untouchable Mountebank (2 Set) - Great for PvP for a large life shield to improve your defenses.

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

3. Starfire Shard - Causes fire to rain down on enemies and knocks them back.

4. Frozen Heart (should be switched to for PvP) - Gives a life shield for a medium duration and chills enemies.

Best 2 Star Legendary Gems

1. Bloody Reach - Deals more damage based on the distance to your summon and then the distance to the enemy.

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

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

4. Follower's Burden - Increases damage based off of number of summons and decreases damage taken by summons.

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

6. Igneous Scorn (PvM) - Used with Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament for damage on critical hits.

Best Starter 1 Star Legendary Gem

1. Entropic Well isn't recommended because increases to skill damage don't increase the damage of summons.

Regular Gems

Prioritize Tourmalines for added damage in red sockets and Citrines for Potency which increases harmful effects duration in yellow sockets. You should also use your highest refinement Aquamarines and Sapphires which give increased armor and armor penetration in blue sockets. You can optionally combine all of your Rubies and/or Topazes into a single higher refinement Ruby and/or Topaz and use one of each in your equipment early on for a higher level of refinement.

Gem Notes

The Viper's Bite and Seeping Bile legendary gems deal continual damage which triggers the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem. Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament both give increased critical hit chance and pair well with Igneous Scorn which deals damage on critical hits. Igneous Scorn should, however, eventually be replaced with a 5 star Starfire Shard legendary gem which is capable of having much higher resonance, damage, and crowd control. One legendary gem should also be replaced with Frozen Heart in PvP for a large life shield and it can also chill opponents.
