Quote: I'm going to be playing untwinked. Even if I wasn't, I don't have enough items to give me +15 all skills.There was a thread somewhere (I wish I knew where, does someone care to post the link so that I can archive it please please), that described the REAL effect of +skills to summon skeleton and skeleton mastery. In short, the character screen is way off, your skeletons are a lot tougher, and there is a WORLD of a difference between lev 20/20/20 and 30/30/30. The same difference applies to 30* ->35*.
So in case you play untwinked (and don't have a handy trang oul's avatar ready in stash), you'd be even more desperate for +skills. Mind you, I'm not only yapping here, I did try this out (I made a summoner/boner with the idea of maxing skeletons, mastery, prison and spirit, and getting 1 in revive and the curses). He did not work with lev 25/25, since the skeletons just kept dieing (the idea was mausoleum running, and they could not even handle that. My friend's pure summoner does baal runs. Go figure :)
Ok, so this is going to be a fun build, do what you feel like doing, man! Just do not feel disappointed when you start to face difficutlies.
