Here\u2019s how to assemble the build for leveling and endgame and if we\u2019d recommend it for PvP play. The Bone Spirit Necro build involves the Necromancer using this longstanding move as their primary offensive skill while also utilizing other spells and gear that boost its effect. This Necromancer build is ranked as S-tier in the current meta, so it\u2019s a great choice those Priests of Rathma who want to do more than just command minions. From there, we\u2019ll detail how to optimize the build for endgame, giving you the best skills, items, Aspects, and Glyphs to target on your journey. For the PvP players out there, we\u2019ll also inform you if we think the Bone Spirit Necro is effective this season. Best Bone Spirit leveling build in Diablo 4 Season 5 As you level while playing through either the campaign or the new Season 5 content, you\u2019ll want to make sure that you\u2019re selecting your skills in the following order: These skills will help you to craft the ideal Bone Spirit build. Of course, you\u2019ll need to have unlocked the Renown points. If not, then go without the last ten upgrades until you have. The above skill selection will help focus your abilities around Bone Spirit, making this your most powerful skill while reducing its cooldown time. Of course, you\u2019ll be able to fall back on Bone Splinters when you run out of Essence, but this will become increasingly unlikely as you level up. Best Book of the Dead setup for leveling When it comes to using the Necromancer\u2019s unique Book of the Dead skills for a Bone Spirit build, we recommend selecting the following: Skeletal Warriors \u2013 Skirmishers &#8211; Skeletal Mages \u2013 Bone &#8211; Golems \u2013 Iron &#8211; This Book of the Dead setup is the best for this build, letting your Skirmisher Skeletal Warriors focus on melee combat while your Mages support them from a distance with Bone Magic, this will essentially allow you to do more damage from bone skills from a distance. We\u2019ve selected the Iron Golem for this Book of the Dead setup as it\u2019ll allow your Golem to protect your Mages and yourself from mobs and elites while you fire volleys into the fray. Best leveling rotation Summon Minions \u2013 If not already active &#8211; Decreptify &#8211; Corpse Tendrils &#8211; Bone Prison &#8211; Bone Storm &#8211; Bone Spirit \u2013 Main Skill &#8211; For this build, you\u2019ll likely already have your minions with you, so your first attack should be to strike a mob with Decreptify curse so that they\u2019re likely to take more damage when the battle starts. Next, cast Corpse Tendrils to stun enemies and increase the likelihood of producing extra corpses to re-supply your minion army. Now you can use your two most effective skills, Bone Prison and Bone Spirit. Once you\u2019ve cast Bone Storm, fire a volley of Bone Spirit into the fray. You can fall back on Bone Splinters if the need arises. Best Bone Spirit endgame build in Diablo 4 Season 5 Once you reach endgame in Season 5 by beating the story, hitting level 50, and unlocking the Paragon Board, you can then respec to the endgame version of the Bone Spirit Necro build. For this build, the endgame version is identical to the leveling build, but there are some new factors to consider. You won\u2019t need to reallocate your skills, but you will need the following: Here\u2019s which Passive Skills you should choose: Best endgame Book of the Dead setup The Book of the Dead setup in endgame remains the same as it did in the leveling build: Skeletal Warriors \u2013 Skirmishers &#8211; Skeletal Mages \u2013 Bone &#8211; Golems \u2013 Iron &#8211; Of course, if you\u2019d prefer not to use minions, feel free to Sacrifice them and empower yourself. Best endgame rotation For endgame, use the following skill rotation when approaching mobs in battle: Summon Minions \u2013 If not already active &#8211; Decreptify &#8211; Corpse Tendrils &#8211; Blood Prison &#8211; Bone Storm &#8211; Bone Spirit \u2013 Main Skill &#8211; The rotation of attacks in endgame remains the same as it was for leveling with this build. Best Legendary Aspects Now that you\u2019ve reached endgame, you\u2019ll have access to many more Legendary Aspects to boost your build and add special powers to buff your primary skills. Some are the same as in the leveling build, but now there\u2019s even more. Here\u2019s where and how you can find them: Remember, you can also strip these Aspects from their original item and apply them to an item of your choosing. Paragon Board Once you reach level 50 you\u2019ll stop earning skills points and start earning Paragon points instead. This leveling system works very differently and involves you selecting updates from various boards with different themes and buffs. Every path is different, but the good news is that by targeting different Glyphs as you move around the Paragon Board, you\u2019ll start buffing your Bone Spirit Necro in the ways that matter most to the build. See below to see which Glyphs you should target first. Best Glyphs Level 15 Gravekeeper &#8211; Corporeal &#8211; Control &#8211; Essence &#8211; Deadraiser &#8211; Amplify &#8211; Control &#8211; Level 21 Essence &#8211; Gravekeeper &#8211; Corporeal &#8211; Amplify &#8211; Deadraiser &#8211; Once you reach Paragon Level 15, work your way towards the above Glyphs. You\u2019ll also unlock more across the Paragon Board as you earn more points, but selecting these particular Glyphs in this order will keep you on the best possible path for the Necro Bone Spirit build. Best Bone Spirit endgame item build It\u2019ll take time to track down this exact set, but once you do this will make up your endgame gear. Of course, it\u2019s up to you which gear you equip and you may want to mix it up, but this setup will give you a decided advantage. Alternative to Necromancer Bone Spirit build for PvP The good news about using the Necromancer Bone Spirit build for PvP is it\u2019s the same exact build we\u2019ve described above in our endgame (and even leveling) section. The build is rated A-tier for PvP this season, so while it\u2019s not at the very top, it\u2019s still deadly and a great choice for taking down other players.
