How about my Rogue? Can I equip her with white bow although my favoured weapons are wands, polearms and daggers?@broxi_111 If you can find, purchase or gamble a bow with CTC Amplify Damage then she can use it under your Gods stipulations. Cheers!

Southpaw, are you sure about the info for broxi? The way I see it, I think the white bow is out since it's not a favored weapon (or in the list for all cultists). And I don't see how CTC Amplify Damage would make it usable. Isn't the first part of Requiem's stipulations about ANY necro skill/item just for NON-necros?
Also from your earlier post...
Also from your earlier post...
While it does only need to meet one (not all) stipulations from god or talents, I think the part about approved skills would only apply if he had the Specialist talent (which I don't think he chose).
@broxi_111 & @mwille I'm afraid mwille is correct and I'm incorrect about the non-white wands you may use. I apologize if you have already started using any magical/rare/unique wands that don't contain your specific name/s in it. I got your question a bit confused myself with what my Necromancer can use, as he is a "Specialist" and can use any item that directly boosts his allowed skills. I selected to start out with a white wand from Akara with allowed +skills on it and went with that, perhaps you should do the same.
I do believe that I am correct in the comment about the Rogue's bow with any CTC curse on it as a Rogue is a non-Necromancer type. Perhaps @Mezion will say differently, but I'm a bit grey on the matter in my mind.

Edit: I changed my mind about the Nova Sorceress, due to my lack of playing time available at the moment and just stick with Wicular the Necromancer for now.

All ok
I still have a white wand with +1 Skeleton Mastery and +1 Bone Armor. Since my god is Requiem and my talents Necromancy, Boon and Maleficium, I guess it follows the rules. Thanks anyway As for the AD bow, I'll beter wait for @Mezion approval.P. S. Good luck with your sorceress!
Sorry for the late replies guys.
@Bry It seems that your question went unanswered:
>1 question about the specialist talent, I understand it means I can use items with +skill tree. But does that encompass +All skills also? Like using Lore runeword?
The answer is no, unless you can use ALL your skills for that class, which is pretty hard to do.
@Broxi_111 It's important to remember that Requiem is very strict with Necromancers. While he allows other classes to use any necromancer-oriented items, an actual Necro needs to be careful with what he use to impress his God.
With that said, your character has the talents: Necromancy, Boon and Maleficium
Which give him access to various skills and these items:
+ Bone runeword.
+ Items with “Magic damage reduced”. (a lot of these)
+ Items with the word “Dark”. (very few of these)
And Requiem himself allows the various words and item properties you already mentioned.
Also, his favored weapons are : Daggers, Polearms, Wands. which means that ALL white Daggers, Polearms, and Wands can be used, making your white +1 Skeleton Mastery and +1 Bone Armor wand okay to use because of this specifically. Just be careful to use only white ones (unless they have other properties making them usable) when you find other wands.
I hope this clears things up.
Edit: Forgot to add that since your mercenary mirrors you, the Rogue can't use a white bow, she'll need a proper bow that you could use yourself. At least she can still throw cold arrows to help with crowd control. Speaking of Mercenary, don't forget that Requiem allows cold skills, which means that act2 Nightmare mercenaries becomes interesting.

Derevus cleared Nightmare difficulty at p5. Andariel, Duriel, Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal all fell to his Blessed Hammers. Made a Spirit sword once I found a Crystal Sword with 4os in Act I. Sticking with Rhyme for the shield for the extra MF, blocking, resists and CBF. Both Derevus and mercenary now have Gothic Plates with 4 Perfect Topazes. Gambled a nice amulet in Act III.
Once I hit level 71, I muled in 8 Perfect Amethysts, runes, and jewels to start making some caster crafts. Switched back to the game and realized I'd already started a session. Hit Save and Exit and thus lost all the crafting mats. Not too discouraging, as the gear I've found so far is still quite nice. Sitting at 245 MF (+152 on merc kills) has given me plenty of Sets and Uniques. I often had to mule off at every 1 or 2 waypoints. Best finds in NM so far are Guardian Angel, Tal's helm, Goldstrike Arch, Mav's gloves, and String of Ears. Less luck on runes: 1 Dol, 2 Ios and 1 Ko.
I plan on doing Hell on p1, and doing some LK runs once Act III is done if I'm still alive at that point. I've only had 1 NDE so far when I killed a FE Hephasto while standing next to him, leaving me at 62 health.

@Mezion Thank you for the clarification.
ManOfSteel has been cruising along fairly quickly even with the lack of items dropping. I have never wanted to craft things more than I want to right now. The one thing that is going for me is crafting savage polearms. He has been slicing up everything with Mizan the offensive aura merc who also has a savage polearm. I think I am still using a normal white armor from act one and my belt is just a sash. but that will all change once I get some perfect gems. In Act 4 currently right before the chaos sanctuary.

Talents: Pyromania, Boon, Pride
I had some time to play this weekend and GoreJess actually survived. All of her shopping finally paid off when she found a yellow wand with Life Tap charges for sale (allowed by her Pride Talent). With it on weapon switch, it makes boss confrontations less of a worry. But with her life lower than I'd like, the health bulb still looks like a yo-yo. I've had some close calls here & there, so I've lowered the player setting down to 3 in hopes of making it through nightmare.

Act I finished. I'll go quite slowly as melle necromancer is not that strong and needs to clear all areas in order to get enough experience and gear for dangerous encounters (Diablo etc.) Of course I could rerun but that playstyle doesn't suit me very much

Pyre, Cultist of Thoth (Blade Fury & Fire Traps Assassin)
Talents: Pyromania, Boon, Mind's Eye
Pyre raided Lower Kurast just a few more times and came away with an Um rune and a decent black bow, which has been the best bow find to date. Gambled for some jewelry but didn't get anything useful except this summoner amulet.
Moving on to Act 4, Pyre equipped a smoke armor to maintain almost max resistances. Although Izual was surrounded by burning souls, a combination of cloak of shadows and fire traps took them down quite safely. Clearing Chaos Sanctuary was utter hell, with an abort at the extremely dangerous Lord de Seis seal. Ended up rerunning RoF and the Grand Vizier Seal. The fire immune monsters had to be taken down slowly with blade fury, but prevent monster heal from Blackhorn's saved the day. Sniped Infector of Souls while it was fighting its own converted minions. With Diablo preoccupied by the shadow master, it wasn't long until wake of fire downed the lord of terror.
Pyre dashed through the first half of Act 5, which is quite dangerous with all the ranged and/or fast monsters. Slowed down in the ice caves, being careful not to run head first into any death lord packs. Pyre declined Anya's request to visit Nihlathak and headed straight to Arreat Summit. The Ancients were tough, especially extra fast Talic. There was a scary moment when Talic teleported next to Pyre and followed up with a whirlwind, but luckily the damage taken wasn't as scary.
Next stop: Baal!

[highlight]Geras, Cultist of Malstrom
Talents: Charms Expert, One With Nature, Pride, Specialist[/highlight]
Geras celebrated his arrival in harrogath by filling his final ring slot with a Hitpower ring which Malstrom allows. Too bad it wasn't a little bit more useful...
Soon the group had killed Shenk, freed the barbs, and travelled all the way down into the Frozen River to save Anya. Things were beginning to get a bit more difficult, so Geras decided to finally start using his Ravens more. He pumped a few extra skill points into them and let me say, I'm quite pleased with the decision! Being a single-tree summoner, he won't be hurting for skill points, so it only made sense to get himself the maximum number of ravens. Keeping everything blinded has made groups much more manageable, and makes me think that I might switch to HoW over Oak sooner rather than later. I might even pump them a bit more (currently slvl 5) for the sake of having to recast them less often. We also made the switch from Poison Creeper to Carrion Vine. Our original plan was to have PC essentially be a source of PMH, but it just doesn't stay alive well enough and the life gain from the Carrion Vine is much more useful right now.
He found a decent pelt enabled by the Specialist Talent, although he's a bit too obsessed with keeping his MF up right now so he's staicking with his topazed helm. We will keep the pelt around in case of tough fights though.
We finally made the switch to HoW when we reached the Ancients. The extra damage (and especially AR) were becoming too appealing to pass up. The fight was easy and the Ancients went down with no trouble. Before they knew it, to pack had made it all the way to the Throne. The first 4 waves were an absolute cakewalk, and Lister's group was sectioned off into packs of 1-2, making them safe as well. Even Lister was completely benign as he focused solely on the wolves. They're still quite durable, and every time he knocked one back there were 2 more there to distract him, making us use only a single wolf recast the entire fight.
The Baal fight, however, was not quite as smooth. We had to use the bear as the wolves just got vaporized too quickly to do any reasonable damage. Baal seemed to have a real penchant for cloning himself, as he did so 5 times throughout the fight. Geras had to be especially careful of Baal's hoarfrost attack, as it took away a huge chunk of his life if it hit. After lots of chasing, town trips, recasts, and potions, we did eventually get him to settle down and get rid of the bugger.
.
His drop even left us an interesting bow to consider. Wizendraw is a definite option, especially for Annor as it rolled a decent -26% Enemy Cold Resistance. It's not allowed naturally under any of Geras' talents, but he decided to take advantage of Malstrom's main ability and personalized the bow to open up its usage to all cultists. Annor will be the first to try it out.
It may not be an ideal candidate for that, but we figured the magic arrows, as well as the -ECR% will help our killing speed, especially as monsters start to get more physically resistant.
Geras also decided that 45 was a bit young for NM, so he levelled himself up to 48 before moving on.

Wow, great progress guys!
GoreJess thought she must have been doing something her god Ullr liked since she found a Fal rune on the way to the Summoner AND another one in Tal Rasha's Tomb. She is now waiting on the third one to drop (or a Lem) so she can make some "GoreJess" Treachery armor. For now though, she pressed on. Duriel's freeze was annoying but once a kick made contact, GoreJess was back at full life thanks to Life Tap. Before long, Duriel was down and she sailed east.
The swarming little fetishes weren't too bad with a barbarian along. GoreJess would back off long enough to let him group them up then move in to kick a few & lay down a Death Sentry or two. Poof, the crowd was gone. The only problem was the constant stream of feeding the big guy potions, or more accurately, forgetting to do so in time. Life Tap was usually reserved for boss packs. GoreJess had a few tough fights once in a while on the way to Mephisto, but he wasn't a problem by himself.
Things are going pretty much the same in act 4 as long as GoreJess keeps everything Cloaked. Izual was once again a pushover once the accompanying monsters were taken care of. She decided to retire for the night after finding the first waypoint.
Talents: Pyromania, Boon, Pride
Wow, great progress guys!
GoreJess thought she must have been doing something her god Ullr liked since she found a Fal rune on the way to the Summoner AND another one in Tal Rasha's Tomb. She is now waiting on the third one to drop (or a Lem) so she can make some "GoreJess" Treachery armor. For now though, she pressed on. Duriel's freeze was annoying but once a kick made contact, GoreJess was back at full life thanks to Life Tap. Before long, Duriel was down and she sailed east.
The swarming little fetishes weren't too bad with a barbarian along. GoreJess would back off long enough to let him group them up then move in to kick a few & lay down a Death Sentry or two. Poof, the crowd was gone. The only problem was the constant stream of feeding the big guy potions, or more accurately, forgetting to do so in time. Life Tap was usually reserved for boss packs.

Nice use of the bow @Pb_pal is she a Cold Rogue as well? Good luck in NM with that difficult build!
Wicular and crew have bested Duriel, Mephisto and Diablo and preparing to head out into the frozen Highlands. Equipment wise nothing has really changed since the last update, so nothing to add there.

@Southpaw8668 - Great progress! And yes, she's a cold Rogue so she can take full advantage of the -ecr%
Wicular and crew moved through Nightmare at /p5 to try and keep the killing speed at a decent pace.

They were doing really well even in Hell until they reached that irritating Maggot Lair. At /p1 they were still coming up against boss packs in the desert lands who just wouldn't go down without Leharas doing the brunt of the damage. If he could produce a corpse it was game over for their opposition with CE maxed out at this point. It was devastating out in the open on /p1, entire boss packs would drop within 1-2 casts. This was not the case within the Maggot Lair, when they came up against a huge pile up of Locusts and the boss was LE, CE, Extra Strong, Stone Skin and Immune to Physical Damage. Some ridiculous buffs for those tight quarters. Wicular unsummoned all of his minions except for his Clay Golem and Leharas. This was very dangerous as he had to constantly cast Amplify Damage to override Leharas constantly casting Terror on his immediate target because of the ctc from his armor, which with the Locusts this made them IPD once again. While he was busy trying to recast Amp the boss lunged and took down Leharas, and in an instant he was on the heels of Wicular who was unable to reach his safety TP. The Locusts turned him into dust in an instant.
We did have a chance to craft another nice Caster ring though in Act 1 hell IIRC.

Thanks again for hosting such a interestingly fun tournament @Mezion
I think I will give @Pb_pal 's S/U tournament another go even though I have already killed off three heroes in the tournament in the past. It was a fun tournament as I can recall. Have to think of what I want to start with though, perhaps something with an Amazon.

That's too bad, I was really enjoying his progress. Well done getting as far as you did, the Maggot Lair can be just horrible, especially for necros. Good luck in your next adventure!

Pyre, Cultist of Thoth (Blade Fury & Fire Traps Assassin)
Talents: Pyromania, Boon, Mind's Eye
The Worldstone Keep was very tame, the only fire immunes were the weak demon imps. There were burning souls on level 2, but between max light res, light absorb, and cloak of shadows, the souls were not much of an issue. Pyre did get pushed back on wave 3 due to the hydra onslaught. Parked most of wave 5 due to the obscene amount of time to kill a single minion. Around 10 seconds into the Baal fight, almost got caught in a tentacle forest. Pyre fought far too many Baal clones but prevailed in the end.
Score is not maxed out due to unused quest rewards, but I'll save those for later.

@Mezion - I'll unlock the Splice talent!
@Southpaw8668 - RIP, I was looking forward to the hell difficulty play through.
