The Poison Nova Necromancer build is the hidden gem of Necromancer builds in Diablo 2: Resurrected.
Over time, players figured out that Poison Nova has insane AoE damage potential through scaling with +Skills items. Together with the flexible Corpse Explosion skill and tremendous Curses utility, this build turns into one of the best Magic Find builds in the game.Let's find out the best Skill Rotation and Leveling Skills for Poison Nova Necromancer.
Skill Rotation
This is your general endgame spell rotation. Cast Lower Resist to decrease monster poison resistance, then cast Poison Nova. If this doesn't kill all minions on the screen, look for corpses and finish off the remaining enemies with Corpse Explosion. With proper endgame gear, you can skip casting Lower Resist and directly cast Poison Nova since your endgame gear will have a multitude of "- enemy poison resistance" properties.
In terms of defenses, You should always try to keep up your Bone Armor. While this version of the Poison Nova Necromancer build runs Revive support, you should always keep your defenses up, especially while farming endgame content.
In addition to that, your Golem of choice, as well as your Curses, will make your life in the leveling stages much easier.
Leveling Skill
Early Poison leveling can be quite a pain, so you'd want to rely on an early Skeleton or Teeth/Bone Spear build until Level ~35.
On Level 35, you can respec into a starter Poison Nova Necromancer build. Your initial skill point allocation could look something like this:
Summoning Spells: 1 Raise Skeleton, 9 Skeleton Mastery, 1 Raise Skeletal Mage, 1 Clay Golem, 1 Golem Mastery, 1 Summon Resist, 1 Blood Golem, 1 Iron Golem, 1 Revive.
Poison and Bone Spells: 1 Teeth, 1 Corpse Explosion, 16 Poison Dagger, 1 Poison Explosion, 1 Poison Nova
Curses: 1 Amplify Damage, 1 Weaken, 1 Terror, 1 Iron Maiden, 1 Life Tap, 1 Decrepify, 3 Lower Resist
From there on, your skill point priority should look as follows: Poison Nova > Poison Explosion > Poison Dagger (if you haven't maxed) > Corpse Explosion
Everything after that is a bonus - Iron Golem, better Lower Resist, Dim Vision for endgame farming, and so on. You may want to respec those points put into Skeleton Mastery as well.

The Assassin class is extremely useful for beginner players, thanks to its easy-to-gasp skills and spam-friendly abilities, but also for the more seasoned players among us, thanks to its insane versatility. This makes the class a great pick for D2R Ladder Season 5, but with the new updates coming, there is something you need to take into consideration.
The most recent patch notes for the game delve into what we can expect for Season 5, and while there won't be much content added, there will be a massive change made to the No Hit Delay or NHD system. As a short TL;DR, the developers have given many skills in the game a set "delay value", and when enemies are hit with one of these attacks, they will become impervious to other sources of damage for the time reflected in the attack's "delay value." This affects a few of the Assassin's abilities for this build specifically, but don't fret as we'll point these abilities out and provide you with a solution that can alleviate the issue.
Best Martial Arts Phoenix Strike Build
For this build, we've gone with a mainline combo using Fists of Fire, Claws of Thunder, and Blades of Ice which all synergize and all have charge states. Then we have the hallmark of the build, Phoenix strike, which grants you insane damage elemental damage with finishing moves and is the main damage skill for the build.
Now it should be noted that Claws of Thunder and Phoenix Strike are both affected by the new NHD system, which means you'll need to move around some skills points to get the most out of them due to their delays. You could also swap them out for other abilities, but it would ultimately weaken the build. So to stick with it, below is the full showcase of the skills used in this build and with the best configuration of skill points to account for the NHD system patch and its delay drawbacks.
Which Mercenary To Use
Mercenaries are a vital aspect of your build as well since they can draw aggro, debuff enemies, and even buff your characters or heal them. In Act 2 of Nightmare difficulty, you have the option to recruit a Desert Guard Mercenary who can either specialize in defense (Holy Freeze) or offense (Might). This choice will determine whether you want to slow down monsters to increase your safety or enhance your Mercenary's overall damage.
Regardless of your choice, the best gear we've found to work with this mercenary build is listed below:
Weapon: Ethereal Infinity
Body Armor: Ethereal Fortitude
Helm: Ethereal Andariel's Visage socketed with a Ral Rune
If your Mercenary dies during battle, you can bring them back to life by speaking with a Mercenary NPC in any Act. But remember that the cost of reviving them increases each time they die, and if they die too frequently, the cost can be as high as 50,000 gold.

There is a team that is doing so that is called Project Diablo 2. Project Diablo 2 is a group of people that are passionate about the original Diablo 2 game and are adding mods so the game can run even better. One addition they recently made is that Diablo 2 will now run at 60 FPS. This will make Diablo 2 run a lot smoother during highly intense gameplay.
As we mentioned before, Diablo 2 running at 60 FPS is not official. Downloading the original Diablo 2 game through Blizzard will not get you a game that has 60 FPS. Players will have to download the game and follow the instructions provided by the Project Diablo 2 team. Project Diablo 2 gives players a pretty good reason to get back into the older game.
For starters, the Project Diablo 2 team wanted to make sure that all of the classes are balanced. If you play the original Diablo 2, there are some classes that are not that good, but with this new project, you can experience a much more balanced game. The Project Diablo 2 team plans on regularly updating their mods, so maybe more graphical mods are coming in the future.
