Homunculus

Great Necromancer only Hierophant Trophy that will up your defense
In Diablo II Resurrected, Homunculus is part of the Heirophant Trophy category and one of many unique Voodoo Heads in D2R. It is an item of average size, taking 4 Blocks of space if you want to store it in the inventory or stash. Your character needs to reach at least the Required Level of 42 to carry this item. This Heirophant Trophy has a Strength Requirement of 58 before it can be used.

It is a Necromancer only item, that has strong defensive bonuses.
Besides it’s +2 to Curses Skills, it grants you Necromancer a high Chance of Blocking, faster Block Rate and boosts Mana and its regeneration. Many say it isn’t that useful, because although it’s boosting Curses by 2, Necromancers can only level Curses once. So many players rather use other Hierophant Trophies.

The Homunculus is a decent item. It has nice defensive abilities, that will definitely help your character to survive longer.
