Mehtan [Complete]

Necromancer

Mehtan was instructed by the Necromancer who fought the forces of the Burning Hells at the time of the awakening of the Prime Evils. He acknowledged that he could not surpass his mentor's achievements, but intended to nonetheless bring Balance to Sanctuary. Now Mehtan fights with all power to bring balance to the Nexus.

Combat Trait

1
Raise Skeleton
When Mehtan kills a minion, it raises a skeleton that fights for him. If the minion is melee a skeleton warrior will raise. The skeleton warriors deal 10(+2 per level) damage. If it is a ranged minion, Mehtan will raise a skeleton mage, with a random orb (fire, ice, lightning or poison). The skeleton mages deal 10(+4 per level) damage. The orbs have varius effects on hit. 
You can maximum have 12 summoned units.

The skeletons follow Mehtan around

I'm glad you like the consept of him, and i was trying to balance his skills between the 3 skill-trees in D2, by giving him 2 skills from each. I'm thinking he can be played as a team fighter, damagedealer, or a pusher.

I've added a tooltip that states how the AI of the summons work. I've given some Talents so you can choose the "feel right" Necromancer-build, but Bone Armor seemed to be a pretty lame basic ability to give him. I can see your point though.

His ults are in my opinion the abilities they should be.
Reasons for Posion Nova: it's easy to use, it's pupolar, and I needed a poison skill from the "Poison & Bone" skill-tree.
Reseason for Lifetap: I needed one more curse, It seemed like a powerfull spell, And it would be a counter to "Right-click" builds.

And the curses are both an AOE, but they are not a circle, they are actualy a square, but i don't think i'll make a tooltip for that.
Thanks for the feedback, i appriciate it! ^^

Hmmm, it almost feels down and dirty basic to me. I like the trait a lot, but it feels like the base concept needs work.

I wasn't a Necro player in D2 so its a little hard for me to place what seems missing. You're obviously going for the Zoomancer build which is probably one of the favorites. I just don't get the vibe.

There probably should be something in there to state specifically that the Skeletons are using the Defender AI. It wouldn't feel like a Zoomancer unless the Skeletons are following you around. That also probably means you're going to need to cap how many you can have and increase that number through talents.

One iconic visual of the Zoomancer for me was the Bone Armor. This might be a must to really make the Necormancer "feel right".

As far as Ults go, I wonder if not going down to the bottom of the talent trees and grabbing Bone Spirit and Revive might not be better. Bone Spirit could be kind of like Pyroblast from Kael but it might be really cool if it Bone Prisons all targets AOE to impact sight instead of doing crazy damage. That feels like it would be an awesome way to incoprorate two classic skills. Revive could be worked in that it simply brings you to maximum number of summons. It might be cool to work it that the cooldown is reduced for each summon it doesn't need to "Revive".

On Curse, to feel effective, it might need to be an AOE curse perhaps not unsimilar to the mechanics of Blizzard or Flamestrike's from a casting mechanics POV.
