Grim Dawn Necromancer BuildsHere, we're going to take a look at some of the undead mayhem that can be unleashed with killer Necro builds across the base game or in the expansion areas.It should come as no surprise that the Necromancer is primarily a pet-focused build, with the main ability to summon several skeletons at once that can be upgraded over time. It's like being back in the glory days of Diablo 2 all over again!Your pick for the second class will determine how the class plays and whether you want to go full steam ahead into summoning mastery or augment that ability with other power.It's finally here! Necromancer + SoldierThe Deathknight (Necromancer + Soldier) seems like the most obvious mastery combination, but sadly, this doesn't have the synergy you'd expect.Other than the ability to intermittently deal extra damage and heal yourself a bit with physical attacks, there's not a ton of overlap between the two classes for min/maxing purposes.It's not a completely nonviable build by any means - a Necromancer with tons of health and armor who can attack while using pets isn't useless - but there are builds that work more smoothly together. More than likely, this won't be your first pick.
Necromancer + ShamanYou can get some crazy powerful builds by adding the Shaman to just about anything, and the Necromancer is no exception.

We want tons of skeletons and zombies, and they need to be in top shape!Don't even bother with Reaping Strike, Drain Essence, or anything of the sort, because we aren't planning on hitting things ourselves - that's what minions are for!On the Shaman side, upgrade the heck out of Devouring Swarm straight away, which is essentially going to take the place of your main attack. Summon Briarthorn should be your next priority, for even more summoned pet action. Other than that, just put some points into Heart Of The Wild so you have a means to heal and buff yourself when someone gets through your summoned army.Necromancer / Shaman Build Path Necromancer + DemolitionistFlaming skeletons? There are a lot of different ways to go about this combination, but for maximum focus we're only going to take a grand total of four Demolitionist skills.Flame Touch and Temper on the top branch of the Demolotionist skill tree imbue allies with fire damage, and who doesn't want their undead army to be lighting everything aflame all around them?
