Summary
This guide intends to get you through the campaign up to level 60. From this point, you can enter the monolith endgame system. While this guide will use primarily Necromancer mastery nodes it can be used on any mastery up to this level.
Playstyle and Mechanics
This is a classic Necromancer minion army! Keep your minions alive and let them do the work. Summon your Volatile Zombie for burst damage and to proc the kill threshold on bosses. Our skill bar has an unspecialized Transplant for maneuverability and escaping sticky situations.
Gear Suggestions
While leveling, focus on gear that enhances your minion damage, health, and INT. For leveling the acolyte with this guide, either through drops or Rune of Ascendance, look out for these leveling Uniques that will make your life easier.
Useful Leveling Uniques
Weapons -
Reach of the Grave is a great leveling unique for the acolyte as it boosts your Skeleton Archers and Skeleton Mages and provides a good amount of damage.
Offhand -
Grim Constitution is a unique shield that provides a lot of survivability, especially for a minion leveling Acolyte as you just let your minions do all the work for you and this allows you to stay “out of combat” and alive
Ring -
Arboreal Circuit is a great item that boosts movement speed for you and your minions while also providing your minions with more survivability
