Three necro heros that are, n/rt healer, minion bomber and SS. Those abuse soul reaping for insane energy management and roll most of pve.

Sabway was created by a guy on these forums called Sab. Thus Sabway.
Sabway was originally a PvP build that Sab modified for PvE. It uses 3 necro heroes to basically steam roll anything in PvE due to soul reaping providing energy.

It is a set of builds that can be used effectively in Hard Mode that was created by a member of this forum with the username Sab. One of the original threads listing the builds and the subsequent discussions/questions can be found here:

Add a necro (you) running Necro bomber based off of [Icy Veins] and you have one heck of a powerful team

Its called sabaway as sab took a pvp jagged bones build and tweaked it for pve.

Its helpful to roll through a majority of hm areas

Painbringer · Apr 16, 2008, 05:40 PM // 17:40

keep in mind if the body count is not there it is less effective

3 necros, named after some random guy who popularized it by posting it on guru, NOT creating/making it up.

Actually he DID create... sort of.
Like I said in my post, the build was originally designed for PvP in HA.
Sab altered the build significantly for PvE. So the N/Rt idea wasn't his, but the exact combination that is now popular was.

Atleast get it right guys. More misinformation being spread by people is terrible.

First it was a PvE boss and the group he was with build. Then it got modified for a PvP build. Then Sab took the build from PvP and modified it back again into another form for PvE.

I thought Sab was female...

Sab modified the build for PvE. It's Sab's creation.

Secondly, Sab is not some 'random guy'. Fairly well known in PvP circles

im sure u kno wat it is by now but i just want to thank sab for the builds and making the 3 necros worth buying all the campaigns to put together the synergy
