Summoner (Classic)

Summoning Necro equipment without character (account), which we sell separately.
This gear guide is for Diablo 2 Classic. You can convert your character to Lord of Destruction (LoD) but there are better unique items and runewords available in the expansion.

We recommend bringing alt BO Barb with you whilst farming (using second D2) to get 125% more Life and Mana and/or Enchantress Sorc to get around 2000 fire damage on each attack and 300% Attack Rating.
Use Clay Golem + Amplify Damage + Attract to get your first kills.
You may request different items, as long as they are priced similarly.
