Recently started a new necro character as well after hearing all this awesomeness from lestatdark!

The witch doctor class is looking very interesting to me as well...i really enyoy playing the necromancer in D2...so if its gonna be anything similar then thats where i wana be. I might not be starting with the monk then!

Good luck with your Necro  

I've already reached Hell difficulty, though I'm taking my time to do some heavy farming (Runes and Baal runs mostly) on Nightmare still. The thing about the necros is, once you got good gear, you basically become a steamroller. Even on Players 8 mode, my current army of 11 Skeletons and 11 Mages can literally steamroll through anything as each skellie does about 500 - 600 damage (thanks to the Might aura from my merc) and I usually load up on frost and lightning mages for damage+slow combo. Once I get the Pride runeword (for the concentration aura) and Beast runeword (for fanaticism), then I can basically easy mode Hell until the Ubers.

Can you maybe share some tips for my necro build?

I was really intrigued by your focus on skeletons....so im trying to go with something similar.

The last time i played as a necro i leveld my golem mostly. But then again back then i was much younger and wasnt the kinda guy to read up on builds etc.
