As far as gear stats. You primarily want vitality and CDR. Everything else is up in the air. I would take Life then Life Regen because you will be skipping ahead and need to stay alive.

Build Guide

This is a variation of the current zNecro support build. This is "Lanceless" and focuses on generating tons of health globes for Rat necros. Unsure why nobody has thought of this yet but this is very viable for GR pushing and more than sufficient for Rat speed runs GR90-100.

Rather than using Corpse Lance, you just use Devour. I spent an entire night running this build in GR95 Rat runs and it's very solid. It's more fun to play than the typical builds people are currently playing.

The reason why I thought of this build is because while playing the typical Pest zNecro build, I was busy trying to use skills to drop my CDR on LOTD even with 70%+ CDR. This means I rarely used Corpse Lance. I was always spamming Devour and Death Nova.

This build takes away Corpse Lance and adds 2 other skills which fuels your Rat players and those skills are Skeletal Mages - Gift of Death and Command Golem - Flesh Golem. You generate more corpses with these 2 skills. Thus, you generate more dps for your Rat players.

Key differences:

- Skeletal Mages - Gift of Death

- Command Golem - Flesh Golem

- Survivability from 2-piece Trag'Oul.

With 2-piece Trag'Oul you gain all runes which is great for leading the pack. Every Blood Rush you gain 100% more armor and heal for 2% for every enemy you skip.
