Summary
- This build is played as a Necromancer! Summon an armor of Minions, both Spell Mages and Archers and then give them tons of Cold damage to annihilate all enemies! Pop a potion and fill the screen with zombie explosions and parasites to increase your damage and survivability!
Main Interactions
- Having double digit minions around you cast out infernal shades to your maximum and then a dread shade to give minions added cold damage per infernal shade that was up! Pop a potion to have tons of zombies and parasites appear giving you ward per minion death and per zombie death!
How to Play this build
- Just run around with your minions replacing dread shade and infernal shades as needed. They’ll do all the heavy lifting for you!
