Beast or Call to Arms

Hello!
Beast and Call To Arms
Can you tell me which one is better for boost necro skeletons. In case if i planning to have only one
Thx!

I like to go for high +skills for my own necro items.
Merc+summons just need to live and be able to kill 1 or 2 mobs quickly.
The rest of the damage comes from

Amplify Damage + corpse exsplosion.
If i had to choose one i think Call To Arms just to boost mine+mercs survival.

Why not both though? Beast in main hand, cta on switch.

If I had to choose I'd go for Beast myself

I recently upgraded my HOTO to a Beast - and I've noticed a significant speed increase on that first mob kill - I have both but if it had to be one, I'd take the Beast

CTA may roll you very very bad, whereas the

Fanaticism aura is amazing for skeletons!!!

If you can afford it, go for Beast first, then save 4

Gul runes and cube up a

Ohm later, or buy a cheap CTA (ive seen 1BO cta's for

Gul

Ist or less).

thanks to all of you

Couldn't help but notice that part of Beast is a

Ber rune... might be worth considering Enigma for telestomp damage -- less on paper but more in practice

CTA. With the extra hp skeles can survive most things. Beast won't help when your skeles get smashed.

tried Beast but you loose out on fcr. i know it's a summon necro (and ppl will say fcr doesnt matter) but personally, i like faster tele, faster

Revive and most important of all faster

Corpse Explosion! i sold my Beast 2 days after making it.

so to answer your Q, i'd prefer CTA over Beast

I leave class in cube and swap a hito on my second bar. Use hot to cast Beast is for when you find a mob you switch to it.

it’s may be usefull for those, who like me in some reason thought Beast is good choise

After 3 weeks of using cta and Beast, in my case I found Beast useless

It's totally crap. Especially because of its price. I didn't recognize any increase damage from minions or something.

As bonzai said, the rest of the damage comes from AD and

Corpse Explosion. If you looking for best way to increase damage from minions — it's Infinity. This is that runeword you need to invest your

Ber

Best choice for main hand is HOTO

Ofcorse it's just my opinion

you guys are all rich, my merc of my summoner necro is stuck with his upped

Hone Sundan with shaelx2 +

Amn, druss and g-face, that's my poor man's best choice but he is a little CB monster , I found him pretty effective dealing with anyone any boss

You can also put CTA in a

Diamond Bow for some easy leech especially if your merc has phys dmg auras or even

Blessed Aim, or have Faith merc…bow is nice for helping your army vs single targets without having to move.
