The Poison Nova Necromancer is a true "King of AoE." With both Poison Nova and Corpse Explosion at his disposal, this Necromancer quickly gets rid of anything and everything on screen. Fully loaded, this build pumps out incredible levels of Poison, Fire, and Physical Area of Effect (AoE) Damage inside a single Skill Rotation.

Aided by Amplify Damage, Lower Resist, Conviction Aura from Infinity, and Sunder Charms, the combined assault of Poison Nova and Corpse Explosion leaves nothing behind but memories of monsters that when were. No monster Immunity combinations can withstand three significant and unique causes of Damage. Even Poison Immune monsters be taken in by Amplify Damage, a strong Mercenary, and also the Corpse Explosion chain that follows.

As a proficient Density Destroyer with varied damage types, high-speed Teleport, and seamless rotations, the Poison Nova Necromancer is a well-oiled farming machine. This build focuses on demolishing The Pit, making short work of the top-tier Farming Spot with zero Poison Immunes, low Life monsters, and densely-packed mobs. It also levels just about any Terror Zone. If you are looking for any challenging playstyle counting on high APM Skill Rotations and sophisticated farming strategy execution, you'll love playing this build. Its higher gear requirements turn it into a great option after you have become comfortably geared into the Ladder Season.

Gear Changes

Use Rotting Fissure when facing Poison Immune monsters to improve the effect of Poison Nova. To optimize this Sunder Charm you'll need as much -% Enemy Poison Resistance as you possibly can. Equip Death's Web and 3-Piece Trang Set ( Trang-Oul's Claws, Trang-Oul's Girth, and Trang-Oul's Wing) to do this. Poison Rainbow Facets socketed into gear also help. Lower Resist further increases your damage.

Use Flame Rift when facing Fire Immune monsters and Bone Break when facing Physical Immune monsters to improve the effect of Corpse Explosion. Infinity equipped around the Mercenary provides enough -% Enemy Fire Resistance to make Flame Rift effective. Amplify Damage provides enough -% Enemy Physical Resistance to make Bone Break effective.
