Necromancers

Another idea is to go with PDagger and Bone Armor until you get PNova available to you, and then use Dagger to finish off single tough monsters that aren't too scary in Melee. With Wall and Prison (which I'm assuming you'll use) raising the power of Armor higher than points in Armor itself, you will have a pretty decent shield against physical attacks (also the physical half of Diablo's RLBoD damage, iirc), and since you'll have a 1-handed weapon, you can probably get decent resists from a shield. PDagger gets great synergies from PNova and PExplosion, giving it some seriously scary damage. The only downside to Dagger is that it takes a looong time for the poison to work at higher levels (almost 10 seconds at level 20). You will still want Lower Resist, and probably a Clay Golem (not much investment in it, though, just enough to have a distraction that can slow the enemies). I hope that this isn't too late to be of help!
