Blood Wave clears crowds, Bone Spear deletes elites—best of both worlds
This build takes two of the Necromancer’s strongest skill trees—Blood and Bone—and fuses them into one flexible powerhouse. With Kessime’s Legacy empowering your Blood Wave, and Bone Spear cutting through bosses and elites, you’re ready for anything Season 8 throws at you.
🧬 What’s the Hybrid Playstyle Like?
-
Blood Wave = triple-wave clear + crowd control
-
Bone Spear = high crit, pierce, and elite destruction
-
Corpse synergy = fuels both halves of your build
-
Good for: bosses, mob packs, world events, and XP farming
It’s fast, flashy, and crazy fun.
