Diablo 4 Necromancer BuildMinion Bone Spear
Bone Spear is an explosive ranged build that controls the battlefield while dealing massive damage due to high Critical Strike and Max Essence damage scaling. With Season 4 we are able to make use of a new Skeletal Mage rune that causes them to cast free Bone Spears every 6th attack, giving us significantly higher damage and faster clear times. Its an easy build to learn, but has a depth that makes it fun to master.
An optimized version of Bone Spear that works extremely well with no Uber Uniques.
The Deathless Visage is going to give us a massive amount of damage and will also give us more procs of Aspect of Exposed Flesh for the essence generation. Sacrilegious Soul will be auto casting Corpse Tendrils, which will group enemies to speed up clear times and also proc the Aspect of Grasping Veins.

Build Notes
- Cast Decrepify to Slow and Weaken your enemies
- Make sure to keep up your Minions and give them the Skeletal Priest buff for the healing
- Use Corpse Tendrils as much as possible
- Spam Bone Spear making sure to keep your Essence above 70%
If you're looking for a Necro build that is powerful in all forms of content, Bone Spear is the way to go. Whether you are doing speeds, pushing high pits or fighting Uber Bosses, this is the build to go with.
Bone Spear damage scales extremely well thanks to a few big multipliers:
- Max Essence Damage: The core feature of any Bone build is the ability to increase damage output based on Max Essence. This is largely from the Key Passive: Ossified Essence.
- Critical Strike Proficiency: This build has access to massive Critical Strike Chance and Critical Strike Damage. You can easily get to 100% Crit Chance, and you can also huge Critical Strike Damage from Paragon, Gear, and Aspects.
- Vulnerability Debuff: Because of the Splintering Aspect it is very easy for this build to get 100% uptime on Vulnerable on all enemies, which is a massive damage multiplier.
And now with Season 4 our minions will also be casting Bone Spear massively increasing our damage. The minions are also great because they are able to do damage passively, meaning even while we're moving Bone Spears are still being cast. The Spears cast from your minions behave exactly the same as Spears you cast yourself, meaning they do full damage and proc on hit effects such as the Aspect of Exposed Flesh and even Deathless Visage.
