[D2R] Thorns Necro vs Ubers 

@@noknownthrone2487 Yes, Edge bow can even be replaced with Urdar revives!

@@daynsorensen Without Bramble is definitely slower. For safety, cap your res and get some revives.

Yes, Edge bow + Amplify damage is super strong. You need a tanky golem or revives to be meat shields.

@@Bouzalas SOJ is better😄. I was just testing different gear and post a smooth kill. The combo is not optimized yet!

Iron Maiden is way weaker then Thorns. The corresponding IM level would be > 50!

@@goatunnheimit doesn't stack with thorns?

ty!

Trang Set!

Yes!

big plays 😎

I used expensive items for convenience. But all you need are 3-piece Trang and res items!

@@goatunnheim Yeah the charms looked simple enough as well, but when I saw u needed Sur rune for the Bramble I was thinking I might have to try this with just the Edge bow to start with :D

@@goatunnheim Yeah I am gonna level a necro and try this with just the Edge bow, I think I have a few pieces of Trang lying around :) and if I ever run into the Sur rune I now have something fun to do with it! :D

@@wizrom3046 Iron Maiden is weaker than Thorns, while Amp Damage doubles the Thorns damage.

@@goatunnheim but does the iron maiden STACK with the thorns? I thought it did?

@@wizrom3046 Yes, they stack. But Amp Damage doubles Thorns, so you basically have two copies of Thorns.

@@goatunnheim thanks for explaining. 👍 I thought iron maiden plus thorns would be more damage than double thorns.

Iron Maiden overrides Amp Damage. The latter doubles Thorns damage!

Highest life; Clay Golem has damage resist and slows target (so less Thorns damage); Iron Golem is clumsy to recast; Fire Golem is also a good choice for Diablo.

​@@goatunnheim idea for Iron Golem. Have a bunch of Malices in 3 socket melee weapons in stash and if you lose one go back to town and remake. The 100% chance to proc open wounds should help with this no?

@@stofsk Between the time you remake and the golem hits, Baal can heal. But I have done a video with Last Wish and Poison Nova some time ago!

@@stofsk i was actually wondering if shaftstop or stomshields for the phys reduction would last longer.

Firewall!

@@goatunnheim oh does it tick often enuff that it stops their health ticks?? That's smart

@@zaszz Yes! Firewall, Meteor, and frequent Poison Nova will do the job.

I mean. you could also just... load arrows into the Edge, lol. but then you gotta hit, which I suppose is a lot easier with fire wall.

​​@@angilleprevent monster heal from edge doesnt work on ubers. Works on dclone but not ubers.

For different items yes, so you can use Edge and Bramble. Thorns aura from merc won't help.

@goatunnheim when you say thorns stacks, what exactly do you mean? If he had 20 different thorns Auras all different levels would they all stack together?

@@lordzhangfei7534 Yes, different items' Thorns add up. But it overrides oskill Thorns (Paladin/merc).

@goatunnheim when you say an oskill overrides, you mean only other Oskill? So if you had a Paladin with level 52 thorns and a group of another 7 characters with items with all different level thorns from items, these would all stack on top of each other?

@@lordzhangfei7534 The only Thorns items are Edge and Bramble which add up to 36 Thorns. If you have level 52 Thorns as Paladin, then your output is level 52.
