The Necromancer is considered one of the overpowered classes in the game. With its fast-paced playstyle, it can overwhelm enemies in an onslaught of attacks, and using its ability to pump out incredible amounts of Poison, Fire, and Physical Area of Effect (AoE) Damage within a single Skill Rotation makes it almost impossible to fend off. Couple all this with the fact that it is dealing this damage over a wide area, while on the move, the Necromancer class is a monster evaporator.

That said, no class is perfect, and the Necromancer does suffer from being a difficult class to master with a steep learning curb. It's also quite weak early game, only coming into its own mid-late game, and it's not the best at dealing tons of damage on boss fights. However, we can set up the optimal build for the class to negate some of these issues and create a Necromancer that will be feared in D2R Ladder Season 4.

Best Class Build:Poison Nova Necromancer

Our pick for the best Necromancer build in Diablo 2 Ladder Season 4 is the Poison Nova build, which excels in one thing, dealing tons of damage over a massive area. It does this by using Poison Nova and Corpse Explosion, which all dish out Poison, Fire, and Physical damage, all in one rotation, while also using Sunder Charms to break enemy resistance down and give you an in to deal massive amounts of damage.

Amplify Damage, Lower Resist, Conviction Aura, and Sunder Charms, lower the resistance to almost any immunity possible. And combined with Poison Nova and Corpse Explosion, which deal their types of damage, means that any creature regardless of their immunity to unique sources of damage will be eating the dirt.  

This build might be tough to get the hang of at first, but once mastered, nearly nothing can stop you once you're on the battlefield. Below we've broken down in more detail, the specific gear, sockets, and skills for the Poison Nova Necromancer build in Diablo 2 Ladder Season 4.
