You really need to go all in when it comes to poison necro which is especially hard in SSF/offline since that includes having to find Death's Web in order to really see it pump out damage. Once it's going though, it's a very satisfying build.
I liked this video a lot, mate! I'm glad to see you finally plowing through the game after a rough start! Please keep making these videos 🙂 Some ideas though: - For bosses and though single enemies in general, your strategy of slowing them to a crawl is excellent. But a good addition could be to apply Crushing Blow with poison dagger strikes. Put a "Strength" Runeword into a dagger, get some blood gloves, and you can have 30-35% already. That would make boss fights a lot faster. - Act 2 mercenaries are really nice for their auras and Insight polearms, but in the early game, barbarian mercs are pretty good at tanking and distracting enemies. The two handed ones have more health than desert mercs, and also have Iron Skin and use taunt to lure damage. With two swords, you can use powerful combos with Coldsteel Eye (unique Cutlass), "Malice", "Strength" and so on. Keep it up, man! 😎👌
Thank you! I will do just that :D Yeah the bossfights could have definitely been improved. But I just didn't get that kind of gear this run unfortunately. I could have grinded for it but I didn't think I needed to. I don't mind being patient for my victories. A barb merc would have worked as well. I just thought it was funny to edit in a bunch of times the merc died. He actually did very well all around :)
@@thenuclearrabbit No problem, shit happens. Mistakes are merely a symptom of the human condition, though others would refuse it to be true. "Not even death can save you from me." -The Critics
Cool video! Even an elderly member of a black metal band, poking monsters with a butter knife, was able to complete the game, the Amazon did not... it's very funny)
! You started with poison Necro since early on! I started with summoning and curses. Only at about 75 I did a respec and filled all points in the three poison skills, remainder in curses and summons
You know that fcr doent have any impact on the poison? Poison ticks a certain ammount no matter how often you cast the skill its only overwrites. When the mob is green the poison ticks nothing happend when you hit the mob again with poison its just wasted mana
I wish poison dagger automatically hit like smite and did all of it's poison damage instantly. But dreams aside ty for your vids, you deserve more views!
Even cutting the length of time for the poison to deal damage and increasing the range of poison explosion would probably help this build a ton. Thank you! Glad you like them
@1:38 "Dies of old age" Yeah, i had a similar impression when i tried the poison necro for normal enemies in hell. Not what i would consider fun gameplay. Tbh, summoning necro is also not the most fun and engaging gameplay, but at least blood golem with iron maiden proved to be a very chill way of farming bosses. Not the fastest, but still decent for passing time if im having a hangover or feel low on energy. Skeletons are cooler IMO, but it got very tedious and annoying to get corpses before every farm run 😮💨 Overall, i think frenzy Barbarian is my favorite build. That run/walk is insane, and with the fast attack speed and life leech one doesnt need a lot of potions (ive not tried it in Hell yet though).
I have some bad news about when your barbarian hits hell and the potions you will need. But you have access to the find potion skill and it is criminally underrated by the community.
I know you just trying to only use poison skills but lower resist is a must have. I also go some summons with +skills from items I get 20+ s mastery 20+ skeletons 16 iron golum 16 golum mastery 1 in everything else 1 in lower resist 1 in bone armour Iron golum a pride Merc infinity dream bramble…..
Poison Necro is so much fun. Kills great in low duels. I crushed with my old OJsimpson character. Just make sure your gloves don't fit your character, so get some barb gloves or something. 🤣 But they are one of the most expensive to make for hell mode to be viable.
@@thenuclearrabbit I think I'm going to attempt to make a bone necro, and see how viable ubers will be on it. I'm addicted to HC and SSF, but I just suck at the game HAHA!
Bosses really need that IM + clay golem treatment on poison build for playthrough. And points in CE really help too with adding that physical/fire dmg, as well as some revives
I tried a melee only Necro once. Started out with poison dagger, but the skill is hopeless. Switched to other weapons - Blizzard should let poison dagger work on all bladed weapon - and found Passion was barely cutting it. Biggest problem was AR rather than damage. Had to resort to corpse explosion to make it work at all and eventually switched to poison nova. Necro definitely doesn't have any melee options worth trying IMO. Suggestion - would a bow gemmed with emeralds be valid for this run? Does Amp damage increase poison damage? Might help with those early boss fights. Otherwise my only other suggestion has been mentioned below - to use Strength for the CB.
All weapons would be fun as well. Imagine using poison dagger with a dweb. It might actually become good at that point. Necro has very little build variety even outside of melee. I wish the class had more going on but an entire tree to dedicated support really stifles the creativity and possibilities in builds. Yes but I don't see why you would want a bow. and no it doesn't. For extra poison damage you'd want lower resist. Strength would be good
@@thenuclearrabbit You seem to be able to go face to face with Meph and Diablo in HC Normal and not get killed! For some builds that don't have a ranged attack I use a bow gemmed with emeralds so I can take down the boss at range. Takes a while but is safer. I could be paranoid but I'm sure Amp damage cast on me is doing more than it normally would. Generally, I hate amp damage on me. It often leads to death :(
Congrats on the success! 👍 But why not use lower resist curse? It makes the monsters take about 3 times more poison damage and really speeds up the poisonmancer build! And bone prison? It can hold the monsters captive while you use poison nova. Anyway, great vid.🙂
@@thenuclearrabbit You should! I saw you mentioned it on Zarfen's stream when I watched his video and thought it was awesome you like it. I thought - I have the perfect quote!
Not really I mean I did things like nova stuff and even though it's slow I definitely did damage. But I will admit the merc probably was the better of the 2 of us
For an internet person I am on the older side of things. They used to play alice cooper a ton in my favourite bar 20 years ago :) I have also been chronically online since I was 12 years old haha.
1 point into iron maiden and 1 point into clay golem would kill any norm/nm boss easily and safely... Actually, just get those from wand/shield if you don't want to waste points on skills you won't use afterwards!..
@@thenuclearrabbit Oh, sorry ^^' I missed the goal, actually! Was also thinking : "just get poison explo for synergy and use corpse explo, instead" but yeah, if it's a poison-only run, that makes sense ;-)
3:25 Due to this build a bit gimp it woldn't hurt to put 1 or more points into bone prison to lock group of mobs at the point with corpses for a poison explosion AND to prevent necro facing whole pack at once due to lack of AoE and survivability. Actually bone prison is a good spell even for a standard poison nova necro to bind packs while poisoning em.
Easiest probably the Griswold ng+ hammerdin. Ubers had some risk but it wasn't mechanically hard to play or anything. Hardest was the Maul bear probably cause I was just so done with that char before it actually got done
@@thenuclearrabbit ah that maul bear video was something else, have you done a summoning druid playthrough yet? If not that'd be a great build to see you run
Congrats! Many years ago I was thinking about poison dagger build, because the dmg was looking interesting in theory... But now I see how wrong I was for all the time. For Duriel the best would be golem + iron maiden. Iron maiden is not that good like before 1.10 but still it can beat melee monsters to dead...
Yeah that is a big part of it. I also know my maps and builds very well so I always know what I need to move on to the next part. I've also gotten used to beating the game with very budget gear
The thing that I love the most in his runs is the references on his characters names. Not the absolute beast that he is clearing the game SSF on HC, not his expertise in the game, not his humor, nothing. EddieBrock. Cuz he's Venom
andariel on normal for some reasoon has a 80 poison resist, while nm and hell only have 50, so without lower resist, you hardly deal any poison damage to her. :(
You could do ng+ playtrough with full trang set and a dweb. The cast rate is annoyingly slow. But you can give him max block and zoom like a madman without dying, especially with an hfreeze merc
As long as CS is excluded xD I know its a fire skill and very strong but that's its problem. Its literally so strong every necro just turns in to CE necro
Super Mario Kart - Main Theme - Title Screen Persona 3 - Battle for Everyone's soul Goldeneye - Severnaya Installation 1 Goldeneye - Subterranean Caverns Bastion - Bynn the Breaker Slos #2007 - Kaiten
This was my absolute fav build back in the day. I never found a deaths web... still to this day 😂. Ive traded for many but my ssf grail is missing this item and storm lash.
@thenuclearrabbit yeap never got to it on ssf. On ladder is where I really fell in love with it... deaths web is an absolute game changer also with rabies aswell.
I think someone should have said to you that's a endgame build, EddieBrock suffered so muuuch But meh funny to see this poor guy runninggg around Diablo .. Pleasure
@@thenuclearrabbit its one i have never done. I started one and gave up almost immediately after fighting Duriel. I think next go i will try a NG+ with it and see if i can make it work. But i am not in a hurry to try it again lol
I remember when i rerolled my summoner necro to poison necro cause i felt like my summoner is so weak in nightmare (i am a noob diablo player and i play it for fun since i was a kid). Oh god was i wrong lol, uninstalled the game after about 15 minutes of playing xD

Because U need to use corpse explosion with poison nova
1 point into each summon helps this necro out a lot. They make good meat shields and mages get extra damage with lower resist.

Best thing u can do is just not lol dagger build is horrible, nova is only strong if you have a decent deathsweb otherwise it's not great
Its not actually that bad endgame. Fanged knife plague and 3 piece trangs it does really well because of the fully synnergized poison nova procs.

The thing that I love the most in his runs is the references on his characters names. Not the absolute beast that he is clearing the game SSF on HC, not his expertise in the game, not his humor, nothing.
EddieBrock. Cuz he's Venom
No. We are Venom.
@@thenuclearrabbit I am truly, truly sorry!
andariel on normal for some reasoon has a 80 poison resist, while nm and hell only have 50, so without lower resist, you hardly deal any poison damage to her. :(
It's so mean :(
love your videos man
Thank you!
mine just died. level 77. he had a maras and some trang ouls.
RIP. That's some hard losses. GL on your next run
@@thenuclearrabbit yea im remaking him right now haha
Good luck!
Ok.. i gotta say the video ia amazing but i get triggered watching poison necros not specing into RAISE SKELETON
Why would I ever want raise skeleton on a poison necro?
@@thenuclearrabbit tanking and a lot of dmg from skeles also you maxed poison don't spec to golem ever just 1 point and go skelies
The best place for novamancer is pits. It clears it very fast, and with revive it's literally impossible to die, the revived monsters tank all the dmg
Yeah the novamancer is one of my favorite pitrunners
Snes music for the epic finale!
Snes music is the best music
You can kill Andariel easy with throwing Javelins, no matter the build. They are great for champions and bosses of Act 1.
3 socketed bows also!
You could do ng+ playtrough with full trang set and a dweb. The cast rate is annoyingly slow. But you can give him max block and zoom like a madman without dying, especially with an hfreeze merc
I want to do a bunch of NG+ runs with the Trang set. I think it'd be good for pure poison dagger melee as well
Big time psn damage. Not the best option but nothing to be overlooked at all. I tested him with an infinity hfreeze merc. So firewall did its job too
I want to try a full fire necro as well at some point. Fire golem + trang set seems fun
As long as CS is excluded xD
I know its a fire skill and very strong but that's its problem. Its literally so strong every necro just turns in to CE necro
Hell yeah! There it is. Thanks
Np :)
Wow i always wanted to make a poison necro build for levelling but this vid jist showed me it aint no walk in the park
It is very satisfying when you get it though. And farming for better gear than I had will help a lot
1:10 😂😂😂
Music list?
Oh shit it's not there. I might be able to find it back. If I'm able to I'll post it

@@thenuclearrabbitYou also used the Lost Underworld theme from Earthbound in the intro!
This was my absolute fav build back in the day. I never found a deaths web... still to this day 😂. Ive traded for many but my ssf grail is missing this item and storm lash.
I'd give you one if I could I have like 5 of them. The fully decked out version is one of my fav builds as well
@thenuclearrabbit yeap never got to it on ssf. On ladder is where I really fell in love with it... deaths web is an absolute game changer also with rabies aswell.
Ooh I hadn't even thought of that. I like it!
Let's go!
!!!
Wonderful video as usual nice job
Thank you!
10:49 I have told you - normal is the hardest 😂
None of this was truely easy though.
You can't buy a wand with 2 sockets and + to nova at Drognans
Oh wow. I did not know that. Thank you :)
I think someone should have said to you that's a endgame build, EddieBrock suffered so muuuch But meh funny to see this poor guy runninggg around Diablo .. Pleasure
Don't worry I knew what I was getting into. Glad you had fun :)
3:36 isn't normal the hardest? Let's see...
Buy a teleport staff next time to bypass all those pesky barriers
I don't like using teleport staffs
@@thenuclearrabbit why?
I find they create very generic gameplay that allows you to just skip every problematic situation
@@thenuclearrabbit I see your point, but you wouldn't have to use it like that, just to skip the parts that are overtly greivious and time consuming
3:34 if you actually beat this game with Poison Dagger, i will be absolutely stunned. It may be the worst damage focused skill in all of D2.
I'll try it at some point but I'm not looking forward to it.
I'll try it at some point but I'm not looking forward to it.
@@thenuclearrabbit its one i have never done. I started one and gave up almost immediately after fighting Duriel. I think next go i will try a NG+ with it and see if i can make it work. But i am not in a hurry to try it again lol
Oh it will do fine in NG+. You just work your way up to a fleshripper (the fanged knife) and then it's smooth sailing.
wtf he facetanked Duriel...
Glad to see you got a win this time. Seems like your last few vids ends with you dying haha.
Oh haha I didn't even notice. But it always feels good to get a hard run done!

Nova necro ❤ i love this dude
One of the best
❤️
EddieBrock. I get it. I gets jokes.
We are Funny!
I remember when i rerolled my summoner necro to poison necro cause i felt like my summoner is so weak in nightmare (i am a noob diablo player and i play it for fun since i was a kid). Oh god was i wrong lol, uninstalled the game after about 15 minutes of playing xD
Oof that is rough. But yeah poison necro is not a strong build to play through the game.
