wickedb

ok so i just came back to UO after about 3 years, maybe more of not playing. so i wanna make a necro warrior
my template is
100 fenceing
100 tatics
100 poisoning
100 necro
100 ss
80 parry
100 bushido

that leaves 40 skill points to throw in to either focus or anatomy. im making this for PvM only. what do u think and what should i change? any and all help is needed. thanks in advance.

Hi wickedb,

Welcome to UOforums , and sorry, I meant to relpy to you sooner. My char Havok is a necro-warrior. I use him alot for rp'ing but he's ok in pvm.

I'd suggest bumping bushido, parry, and your weapon skill up as high as you can, 110 at the very least. Not sure what shard you play but most 110's are pretty reasonable (If your on Chessy let me know I can help hook ya up with some).

If I recall correctly at 105 necro you won't fail on casting vampiric embrace, just make sure you are well protected against fire damage.

I prefer swords over fencing just because its easier to find nice mana leeching weapons.

Don't bother with focus, just get a fast mana leech weapon and make sure you hit a lot (see: lighting strike ), and try and fit mana regen or lower mana cost into your armor.

Just keep in mind that your only form of healing is SS and you have to pause when you use it. Make sure to Honor your opponent, hit as much as you can (to achieve perfection & leech mana), use curse weapon spell to also leech life and vampiric embrace and it's not a bad template.

Mine is something like this:

Swords 110
Bushido 110
Parry 110
Tactics 100
Necromancy 105
SS-110
Rest in magic resist

Hope this helps some! Good Luck!

-Havok

Necromancers use SS (Spirit Speak) for their healing needs. I think the Bushido also helps them regenerate.

On my necro dexxer, I use SS, Bushido, and Curse Weapon to heal.

Lord Havok

Curse weapons + lightning strike + vamp form pretty much negates the need to use SS during a fight most of the time.

wickedb I don't have much experience using poisoning so I can't really say.

Also for using bushido & parry you get a better advantage using a fast two-handed weapon then you do using weapon & shield.

I know with the vamp/sammy temp ornate axes were very popular (with high ssi & ml).
