Diablo 4 - Best Necromancer Builds Guide

gamespot.com:

The Diablo 4 best Necromancer builds follow a certain trend: minions laying waste to foes. From there, we can think of various ideas depending on certain skill sets, such as Blood or Bone. Here's our guide to help you with the best Necromancer builds in Diablo 4.

Before we discuss the Diablo 4 best Necromancer builds, do take note that we also have several guides that focus on everyone's favorite undead-raising, corpse-exploding class, as well as related topics:

The Necro class itself tends to be one of the most powerful and beginner-friendly, primarily due to healing sources and having nearly a dozen minions at your beck and call. However, when considering Diablo 4 best Necromancer builds, it's worth adding that you're hampered by a limited selection of active skills, since your Raise Skeleton and Summon Golem abilities already take up two out of the six default slots.

Our Necromancer leveling build comes from the early access beta, where only Act 1 was playable and you can only reach level 25. The build relies on a select few Blood abilities, such as Hemorrhage and Blood Surge. Corpse Explosion, Decrepify, and Army of the Dead are also there for additional AoE damage, AoE debuffs, and long-cooldown nuking, respectively.

We feel that one of the best Necromancer builds in Diablo 4 follows the template from our earlier leveling build, though with some changes, thanks to additional skill points.

In any case, the Hemo/Blood Nova Necromancer build goes all-in on Blood skills. Hemo tends to be spammed, given its Fortify proc and Blood Orb generation. These will give you health boosts/replenishment, and a higher Overpower coefficient when using Blood Surge (aka. Blood Nova).
