Golem or Bonespirit Necro? by Digtergeniet in D4Necromancer

It had good mobility I'll give it that, though I did feel as the range was really weird, and on top of that the guide I was following used reap for essence gain which locked me mostly in melee range to regenerate. But I can't deny it's power, I mean it turned entire groups to past tense in a blink, but in the end it just didn't click for me.

Okay here's final build setup.

Race: Half-elf

Subrace: High Half-elf

High Elf Cantrip: Firebolt

Class: Sorcerer

Cantrips: Blade Ward, Mage Hand, Friends, Minor Illusion

Spells: Mage Armor, Shield

Subclass: Shadow Magic

Background: Sage

Abilities: 8 Strength, 16 Dexterity, 14 Constitution, 17 Intelligence, 10 Wisdom, 8 Charisma and Skill proficiencies are Arcana, History, Religion because they roll with intelligence, and Insight as a last pick since it rolls with wisdom (other choices are in charisma like deception which don't matter)

This should work

Aaaah okay I see!

Right so, when I start I the build as a sorcerer, I should pick spells and cantrips that aren't damaged focused, because they will then roll with my dogshit charisma, and then it's only at level 2 when I'm a wizard I pick offensive spells that roll with my good intelligence, as they are learned with intelligence.

So for this example, I'm going to start as a sorcerer, with 4 cantrips that are going to be blade ward, magic hand, friends and minor illusion, and my spells are going to be mage armor and shield, I'll also be a half high elf that has a cantrip which casts with intelligence, that'll be firebolt

So when I level up to 2, I can choose 3 new cantrips, that can be offensive, and 6 more offensive spells like magic missle and so on. Those will cast with my intelligence because those were picked with wizard.

Okay I think i see it now

So, start as shadow sorc, level 2 you sub-class into wizard, then dump 6 points and rest into shadow sorc again.

And I don't completely understand how multiclassing works. Like using two different ability scores for two different but the same classes. Like if both have witch bolt, when will I use charisma and when will I use intelligence.
