I have no love for the typical necs. The only love I have for the nec is the B.spirit/Dim Vision/Bone Prison PK type.
20 skeletons look cool!!!

Jesus Christ, ****ing powergamers. No sense of aesthetics.

No kidding. I used to have a Nec with +10 or 11 to all skills and sweet eqipment at a decent level. I could summon 60+ creatures at a time and would run around throwing endless lower resists and poison novas... until my mana was out... which it ALWAYS WAS... and nothing would die anyway because the Necro is so weak in the current game, but damnit he had style.

Exactly. The point isn't to kill things, it's to look scary.

Skeletons are like the disposable ninjas of Diablo. And being a necro is like being a Bond villain.

You haven't lived until you have the D2 equivilant of an Abrams tank at your command. I can not tell you the sheer joy I had with my BG+IM combo.

Yesterday I started a softcore Paladin on US East called ACS_Poet.

Yeah, I know Pallys suck, but I just like them.

He's probably going to focus on Vengeance and Charge as his main attacks, while flashing a few auras. I'm thinking Fanaticism (maxed), Holy Freeze and Redemption (both low base level, boosted by +skills items).

20 levels in Vengeance, Charge and Fanaticism = 60 levels.
Let's say 5 base levels each in Freeze, Redemption and Holy Shield = 15 levels

Total = 75 skill points, plus a few for reqs.

That should do, I don't intend to level him up to 99 (he's sub-optimal anyway, so Hell difficulty will be harder than usual).
