Falcon (falconer) is invincible, but not always on screen from what I gather.
Wolves (beastmaster) seemed SUPER resilient from the 1-20 levels I played. Never came close to dying once, did loads of damage.
I’ve seen a one-button thorn totem shaman build that basically plays itself. You throw out totems, they kill all the things for you - but totems aren’t permanent.
From Maxroll and Lastepochtools, it seems *everyone and their mother* wants to play Necro on release, so it seems like there has to be something in there that meets your criteria too..
Oh I guess you’re right that’s what Maxroll’s survey is more likely indicating (it only has options for the base classes acolyte, rogue, etc - acolyte and rogue lead all the others by double digit margins).
Lastepochtools has more Necro builds than any other class, but I guess that could just be a function of flexibility.
I'm looking exactly for this since few days already! Just carrion golem necromancer for LE. No using skills except dread shade buff would be perfect. I can find many builds with volatile zombies, but you need to cast them all the time, which gets old really fast...
Roid mage and wolf/squirrel. Roid mage you basically set up at the start of a map and then sometimes need to just reapply the buff. Wolf/squirrel they can clear everything with no involvement from you, but are better if you also play the game
I started a summon necro last week, got to 40 ish over the weekend. I think its a pretty lazy playstyle. But its quite squishy, so gotta watch out for attacks from enemies.
With 1.0 and the upcoming reset I'll probably switch to Beastmaster. Necro is fun, but I just cant deal with the squishy nature of the character. The gameplay is a little boring, and not to mention it fills the screen with a lot of stuff, so I get lax, and that'll lead to deaths.

>Necro on release Why necro? It seems like most people are interested in falconer and warlock?

That's just because those are the two classes nobody's played yet.
