Who is strong magic or stamina necromancer?

I'm having issue on which to go for two handle sword to use executioner ability as a executed or go for magic and use vampire skill ability blood to blood as execute because I'm trying to have necro to have a execute ability as one bar and also at the moment I have her as a fire staff user as 1 bar.

Necro is not strong right now. But I would go stamina and daggers as suggested. If you really want to use Executioner, you have to put the 2H on the front bar, making it part of one of your 5-piece sets to get maximum damage, meaning its not going to be the VMA 2H. Unless you can figure out a build where you can wear two 5 piece sets and run the VMA on the front bar. Back bar can either be the VMA bow or BRP daggers.

Biggest problem with stamina Necro has always been sustain. Its going to be a issue with Executioner. You'll probably have to wait to 30% to use it instead of 50%.

The best way to play StamCro is 2H backbar and Dualwield frontbar. Anything else results in insufferable consequences.

Believe me, I tried...

Right now that what I'm doing because he got the ability grave grasp that stun enemies and more and dual dagger have the passive that do more damage to stun and a execution and I think it fit well for them.

Then ... suffer ... 😉

Nah, just kidding. I guess you can make an Oakensoul StamCro work when you dualwield. The key is Bloodthirst.
Use it alongside Graveyard, Skeleton and Blastbones for damage.
Vigor or any other survival ability round out the build.

But is it comparable in power or survivability to other one bar builds? ... No ...

Thank you and you do got a point because I'm trying dual one bar and feel good and doing better damage than magic.

Follow me on YT for all your necromancer needs. My most recent build for a superior necromancer is

5 Akaviri Dragonguard (body and jewelry)
5 Nobility in Decay (back bar setup
3 Potentates (front bar and necklace)
1 Markyn ring (gives you the 3 set bonus for damage and armor)

This set up makes colossus ult only cost 123 ult or if youre into the summoning aspect, animate blast bones only costs 243 ulti. I have never had so much fun on a pure Magic necromancer non bomber, and combined with deadened pain or necrotic potency, the uptime is literally every 12-15 sec. Its my main class. This build will be released soon on my channel. Wanted to get it on paper.

With hybridisation we no longer run out of skills to use.

dizzy, blastbones, executioner, barbed trap, detonating siphon, ult
carve, stampede, graveyard, archer, vigor, ult

Here you go, a decent 2h/2h bar setup.

It's one of the best PVE damage skills in the game, practically a must have on any build. Even if you had minor force, the dps from it alone outpaces most things you can slot there.

But hey, if you hate using it, stack some crit damage elsewhere and I'm sure you'd be fine.

For pvp, yeah, don't bother using it.

As he said before the singe target damage per cast of this ability is unmatched. So it is a must have - even on oakensoul builds.

Btw, this one of my pain points with oakensoul.
