Re: Necro/Monk? 

Hmmm, I have heard a lot of bad story about Necro/Monks :P. Though you could try to actualy make a good one ^^.
I think you should aim for Necro spells only, just be a full necro, monking is not that usefull when your necro.

Re: Necro/Monk? 

I'm blood necro and the skills i use most often are

1)Demonic Flesh (boost max hp quite a bit)
2)Vampiric Gaze (nice damage plus keeps u alive)
3)Vampiric Touch (same as above but close range)
4)Life Siphon (gets a reasonable amount of health regeneration)
5)Life Transfer ELITE (my favourite elite, gives me 6-12 regeneration)
6)Shadow Strike (quite a hefty damage skill, plus health)
7)Well of Blood (kinda works like a monk sill)
8)Ressurect (what more do i needa explain?)

Re: Necro/Monk? 

you could put points in death magic and be a great minion master. Since minions lose health over time you could comphensate with the monk skill Heal Area, and all you minions would be healed. I know there are 2 necro skills that heal your minions, but after a while they will eventually die, i think heal area is probably better then the 2 necro ones anyway since it has a faster recharge time, adn you dont sac health.

Pah! Such nonsense! When I use my necro Monk to be a healer, I am a lot better than most monks out there who dont have any idea how to deal with energy management. I must agree that finding a balance between the two professions is hard. It's easier to choose one of the two and focus on that, but when I choose to be a healer I kick butt! Well heal butt that is. Whatever I do, I always use soul reaping. If critters are dropping dead around you, casting the biggest most expensive spells is no problem. Energy management is the key.

Now when I started with my Necro monk I too thought that healing minions with monk spells was a good idea, but healing them with monk spells is a waste. You'll need to invest points in healing for that reason alone? Bad idea, take as much death magic with you as you can, heal them with you necro spells and keep killing, as long as you keep killing there should always be enough corpses to make new ones. This is not a waste of energy because whenever a minion dies, you get energy form soul reaping, making them great big damage absorbing batteries.

Good luck with your build!

Re: Necro/Monk? 

Necro/Monk can be an awesome char, you can go with Blood/Smit, or go with the ol dead minion farmer and that build can go several ways, you can make em suicide with death nova to add to it, or keep them alive and a lil army with healing monk skills, Necro/Monk can be a serisouly heavy hitting build if you play it with half a brain.
