Wraith Samurai. Uses wraith form instead of vamp form from necro, only has 40 Necro, and has Spirit Speak to use Curse Wep for life leech.

wraith samurai.
Temp looks something like this.
120 weap-melée
120 parry
100 tactics
100 anat
100 spirit speak
120 bushido
60 necro or 40 or 0 if human, just need to cast wraith
You want a weap with hll and stam leech and your victims lowest resist as damage type. Curse weapon keeps you alive. Some choose to use chiv because of EoO, but it is a continuous karma battle. Works very well on dreadhorn. You can use cure pots and have an endless supply of mana. Cons are movement speed, no stam regen, and no EoO. If you can stack slayers(ie vermin tali repond slayer) you will not notice the difference. Also you either need regs or lrc or a little of both.

Or we can have 100 Necro and 100 SS if we like to switch between wraith and vampire (vampire with curse weapon I might add)
also has the benefits of being able to use the entire repertoire of necro spells (granted, that's not too often useful in PvM)
Why do you think we don't have Chiv? It's actually very easy to keep up Karma when fighting non-bosses. (sure it's not 100% max karma, but more than serviceable)
And carrying the necro regs in 2 stacks of 50 (3 for pig iron) each isnt so bad

I played the template for at least a year. After dreadhorn, I would kill demons for 20-30 minutes. Not hard, but a necessary evil.

Or just do a champ spawn. (or mini-spawn)
Your weapons are so limited it's ridiculous. You can only get 30 DCI without using gargoyle artifact armor that has it (and I think the other mods aren't too great), so you'd need 15 on your weapon just to have 45 DCI. You can't get HLD anywhere other than weapon, so there's another mod you'd need on weapon. That leaves SSI, HML, and DI if you're imbuing. That's a pretty not good weapon :/

And a name no self-respecting Necro fighter would ever call himself.

Hmm... yes "Wammy" does sound odd and the construction of the abbreviation does not even follow the same rules of construction as the "Sammy":
Samurai + Vampire = Sampire ~ Sammy
Wraith + Samurai = Wraith samurai ~ Wammy
How about we start calling the wraith samurai: Samuraith ~ Samuth?
Samurai + Wraith = Samuraith ~ Samuth
It appears to me to be more logical that way and "Samuth" does sound better than "Wammy", at least to me

Hmm... but that does not specify if he uses vampire or wraith form as his primary fighting form and it does not mention how important bushido is in the template.
Ah well, we are probably stuck with the "Wammy" abbreviation after all, so this is probably a futile debate

Yea, the name fits my char more than anyone else (100 Necro/100 SS so i can switch back and forth)Hmm... but that does not specify if he uses vampire or wraith form as his primary fighting form and it does not mention how important bushido is in the template.

I'm curious... do you have Resist spells?

Really no point for resist. Even when blood oathed you can leech through it. (Vamp + Curse weapon)
Mind if I ask your temp? I tried making a similar one but I just couldn't do high enough damage.
