hmm...im interested in making a psn nec on sc nl useast, and so far this is what i have figured out to use as far as skills/stats/items

skills (96 stat points, lvl 85 char with all skill quests finished):
+20 psn dagger
+20 psn explosion
+20 psn nova
+1 to teeth/corpse explosion/spear/spirit/armor/wall
+1 to all summon skills
+1 to amp/weaken/terror/iron maiden/lifetap/decrep/lower resist

this leaves 13 skill points, so i was just wondering if i should put those into lower res(not really worth it in my opinion), bone wall (for extra dmg absorb), or revive (help with dueling), or maybe a golem or something else?

as for stats:
75 str (enigma helps me get any other req higher than that i need)
dex (not sure if i should consider getting a higher block rate)
vit (was planning to stack xtra points into this if i dont want a higher block rate
nrg (probably only around 100 nrg cause with a shako/2xsojs/arach ill get a lot of extra nrg, and psn nova only takes 20 mana to cast no matter what lvl it is)

i guess the major question here is should i get dex for block rate, or should i jsut stack vit for life?

i was considering using this setup for items:
Shako (Umed or faceted)
Maras ammy
Enigma
Dweb (2 to psn skills, -45% res)
Homuculus
Trang Gloves
Arachnids mesh
Marrowalks (exploiting marrow glitch for extra armor dmg absorb)
2xsojs
(no charms at all, cept maybe life ones, since im too cheap to afford all those pnb ones lol)

the problem with this is my fcr, i only have 40 at this point in time. i was wondering if anyone had any suggesstions to help me get more, like should i get a circlet or fcr rings or an ammy perhaps? but dont mention dupes, i dont use dupes of any kind

thx in advance for any help i might get Very Happy

I dont think you need to have more fcr cause poison nova doesn't stack so casting it faster wont do more damage. You won't need energy either because like you said shako/maras/sojs gives u plenty. Blocking really depends on where you're dueling. In pubbie games you can just tele around aimlessly, drink mana pots and never get hit by any melee. If you're in a CH dueling or something like that where they ban teleporting block is a priority.

i would say dump them extras into wall if you dont want lower resist but id say lower resist is still your best choice peeps stack poison resist and it cant hurt to get -resist as high as you can

thx for the help

as for putting points into bonewall, i think ill do that since that means more to me than an extra -10 res from putting the points into lower resist
and as for fcr, psn nova doesnt stack yes, but i was more looking for fcr for the teleport since i only do pubby duels

people stack resists. i think your gonna need lower resist, cuz all the good necs ive seen use it.

i plan to get one point onto lower resist, but ive always thought bringing it higher than that was useless since it improves so little with the extra points

however...maybe your right. ill consider it, if its worth losing the extra dmg absorb on bone armor

well i could afford 10xpnbs, but ill have to strip another chracter to do that and personally, im not gunna do that

and even if revives are for noobs, theyre still fun for killing bowzonz and sorcs

as for fcr, im probably gunna use a different helm instead of shako, like a 20 fcr circlet, and perhaps 2 rings unless i can get on next season of ladder and find a darkforce (im not planning to make this psn nec for a while yet)
