Question regarding Necros

[CedrikWayfarer]

Hi all

I got a question!

Its about necro pet absorb. Its known and confirmed that all buffs add to necro absorb, ie Str / Dex / Con buffs.

But, how about Str and Dex etc from items (I already cap con and hits ofc), do I need to put Str in my SC for necro, will that add to the pets absorb when i summon it?

Regards,

Quin

Only Str/con and Baseline con add to absorb.

Boosting +con cap doesn't help


Tried everything to make my necro a better focus farmer @ chimera

As BC tho, he knows loads about necros

Yes, it seems only the buffs effect the absorb.

I'm not the necro TL so i cba to fully test it

regarding absorb - every single buff effects it, even acuity and hot (albiet only slightly). Dex buffs have as much effect as af and con buffs for absorb on a mob/pet.


The hp/con cap only add hp to the pet, not absorb.

Still, Im not really sure if I've gotten an answer to my question? Or have I? I might be daft and reading everything wrong!


Does str/con/dex/qui etc from items in SC affect absorb. Or is it only those buffs that affect absorb, Bigchief?


Rgds,

With a necro you need 2 suits, 1 to summon and 1 to battle...

Summon suit is best with +26 Con Cap, +200 Hits Cap, +101 Con, +400 Hits
These are the only stats that transfer to your pet when it is summoned.

Battle Suit is best with +26 Dex Cap, +26 Acuity Cap, +101 Dex, +101 Acuity, and as many resists as you can cram in, if your using for farming max out Slash, Crush, Thrust 1st.

Hits transferred to pet increase pets Hits total, Con increases its Abs factor, thus lowering damage.

Not many Arti's powers can be used once in shade form, although its still worth having a few of them.

Buffs on Necro do NOT transfer to pet, only buffs caster needs are Base Dex, Spec Dex, Base Acuity

Buffs on pet for optimum performance...Base Dex, Spec Dex, Base Str, Spec Str, Base Con, Base AF, and Regen...Spec AF does not affect pet as of 1.72

Any other questions, feel free to pm me, noramally on Jaxxal or Abomi.

Your all weak

got 74% on mine xD

Hits transferred to pet increase pets Hits total, Con increases its Abs factor, thus lowering damage.

no no no no no.

con on sc also adds to pet hp, not pet absorb. ONLY buffs effect absorb. Btw spec af does have a tiny tiny impact, like acuity does .. about half a percent absorb.

str is useless ced, as is qui.

 

[Mauness]

so whats everyones necro template then?

 

[Bubble]

mines uses a tonne of rogs with +power% and +power cap

and +25 Acuity cap

 

[bigchief]

http://users.dryfish.org/~bigchief/necropower2.txt

altered resists slightly to cap crush and a little lower spirit (since bb has red resists for that). Rest is same tho and no rogs ;o
