Diablo 3 Pestilence Support Necromancer Build

Support builds are significantly inferior in damage to the rest of the group. But what makes them special is the utility buffs. Support Necromancer brings several useful things to the group at once – health globe generating, AoE slow and damage reduction, Crit buff and damage increasing buffs (from Strongarm Bracers and Oculus Ring). This Necromancer will be indispensable in any group that wants to conquer the top levels of Greater Rifts.
