1 clay golem
4 prerequisites
5 Decrepify
rest bone armor

Strats against different classes

Note: before u start a duel, cast clay golem, Oak Sage from natures (switch ring after) BC, BO and bone armor. Also, I personally would not use a merc, but if your rich enough to have one, get an act 2 nm defensive (holy freeze)

Amazon
I'm Pretty sure you'll be dueling in act 1 blood moor, and I'm pretty sure, the zon will be going GA against you. Therefore you will need to find a corner with walls for protection (or a house if your lucky). When the zon starts shooting, use these for cover, decrepify and tele, then shoot your spirits. Use Homunculus, boneshade, rare ring/soj.

Assassin
If your going against a trapsin, just run around or teleport till traps are almost out. teleport to the sin and start shooting bonespirits. Use hoto, homunculus, rare ring/rare ring.

Necro
You'll be teleporting alot cuz Necro's tend to run/teleport, also use decrepify. Depending on what he wears and what you wear, it will be close. If the necro is a summoner, just prison him and shoot bs. Use darkforce, boneshade, soj/soj for both types of necro.

Barbarian
Decrepify, Prison, BSpirit. Unless he also has an enigma, when he teles and uses whirlwind on you, dodge it and start shooting bsprit. Use boneshade, Homunculus, rare ring/soj.

Pally
FoH: Use all resist items, tele and bspirit, rare ring/rare ring.
Zealdin: Like barbarian, Decrepify, Prison, BSpirit. Use darkforce, boneshade, rare ring/rare ring.
Hammer: Best just to stay away from them and shoot bsprit. Prison will be useless here, just stay far away and you should be alright. Use darkforce, boneshade, soj/soj.

Sorc
Use all resist items (hoto, homunculus, raven/rare ring if cold sorc, soj/rare ring for light and fire sorc), tele as close as possible and start bspiriting like crazy.

Druid
Wind: Since both whirlwind and bonespirit are slow moving missiles, try teleing and bspiriting as much as possible. Use darkforce, boneshade, soj/soj.
Wolf/Bear: like the zealdin and barb, Decrepify, Prison, BSpirit. Use darkforce, boneshade, rare ring/rare ring.

Any questions or comment, post or pm me.

Nice guide... Just one question...

1. Why the enigma in breast plate... just personal pref?

[Overtone]

Because a breast plate requires very little strength.

Good guide, I will probally make a necro and try this out

[Kao]

30 str on the baseplate is like basically adding like 10 strength in the end if you have a +10 str anni. Horribly good choice here.

[aphextwin]

necros start off with 15 strgth. u need a 15+ anni to wear enigma
