Bone Necromancer is a good build for soloing single player. Mostly playing with Players 1 difficulty and sometimes increasing it for faster experience. Main damage sources are Bone Spear (magical) and Corpse Explosion (physical/fire).
Build has great survivability. Bone Armor absorbs a lot of physical damage. Bone Wall, Bone Prison and curses are the best crowd control skills in the game.
