    Spirit Reverb won't proc from many of these powers, though ofc it work w/ ERuin. I may swap the sigils for ranked Soul Vortex, so that can proc the EU in the BG for when you aren't using ERuin. I'd may also use Lifedrain over Life Essence here, since you don't have reliable poisons. You could also keep the DEX/Int/Con setup, but use Conc and focus on Int gearing for Deadly Aim, but that's up to you.

    aww I see what I did. I lumped magic in with dimensional damage. Now I'm gonna have to rethink the whole thing. Thank you, Flow

    I thought about it, and decided I would like to try a summon build. After all, what's a necromancer if they're not raising the dead? I've never done a pet build so I'm gonna need help. I want 2-3 summons (March of the dead, Summon Shadows, and Warlock's Blades, ideally), and then I'm thinking Skarn's and ERuin or SB so it isn't useless for endgame. Any ideas for this?

    SBlast isn't the best ST dps out there, but temp pets can alleviate that a bit, and it does debuff for Dimensional dmg. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and Pres.
