Notes:

Cast Spirits out of range, use Assassin Support as an initial attack, Summon Spirits, Spirit Burn, Feral Lunge. Repeat Spirit Burn as soon as it recharges. Use Technobabble to daze monks and casters, this allows sprits and minions to interrupt. Once minions are raised, N/Mo will use Judges Insight and Balthazar's Aura on your Pet and minions. N/P will use Withering Aura on Pet and minions as well as Death Nova. N/Mo will also use Dwayna's Sorrow on minions which heals you for 11 every time one of them dies, not to mention when it does it will explode causing 100 dmg and poison 15 secs (Death Nova). Blood of the Master is not recommended. Heroes tend to use it in battle, lowering thier health at a crucial time. Also using minions as bombs is more effective as N/P will make more than enough minions to replace the ones lost.

Unlike traditional Discord builds, it is not necessary to ping your attacks. Simply ping your target if you feel it is a priority target, otherwise the AI handles these builds well. Most times I find if I simply initiate the attack, the heroes will choose thier targets based on my initial attack or the enemies makeup. You will find they attack the target that is the greatest threat, the one you should have :).

These are excellent builds for running triple necs. I personally use them to run Gate of Madness {NM/HM} (pet is not mandatory for shiro, but makes it much easier to kill him) among many others. These builds work with all player character classes.

 * You may replace Rebirth with Resurrect, depending on the mission you are running. i.e. is it safe to resurrect nearby or will you need a teleport resurrect?
 * Necromancers make good heroes due to thier energy management. Whenever something dies, they get energy. Hero is able to run this build consistently, whereas my monk is energy depleted within minutes.

 * You may replace Vengeful Weapon with Life, depending on if you run spirits on your character or not. If you do not run spirits Life is advised to allow the use of Spirit Light without a health sacrifice. I know this does not seem like alot of healing, but only in rare cases does it actually prove not to be enough. And if you play with another hero team it will be more than enough.
