The Nekros Prime possesses a passive ability wherein, any contact with the Orokin Void Death Orb will release energy pulse which grants 250 units of energy to nearby allies.
This passive ability is quite handy and it can occur only once per death or instance and it can even occur after the death or has been destroyed or previously destroyed.

One of the best builds
There are many mods and different types of builds recommended based on these mods and difficulty level.
However, there is always a common and effective build for Nekros Prime which works well with different mods.
With many experienced players sharing their build, this is one the best builds for Nekros Prime:
- Health Conversion and Despoils are mandatory
- Shield of shadows and vitality are recommended with a few favoring redirections instead of vitality
- Low level with maximum range farming build should be – Rejuvenation, Cunning Drift, Health Conversion, Vitality, Stretch, Overextended, Transient Fortitude, Despoil, Shield of Shadows and Streamline
- To have that extra survival during the end game, we could switch Cunning Draft, Overextended and Stretch with Power Drift, (Primed) Continuity and Intensify respectively. Other possible and good changes would be Rejuvenation and Streamline can be replaced with Corrosive Projection and Equilibrium respectively.
- Equilibrium has its drawback, you need to constantly search or pick up health and energy orbs to maintain your health since Despoil will keep draining it. Streamline doesn’t have this disadvantage and I’d prefer this over Equilibrium.
Nekros can be used to join any farming party without the need to change your specifications or build due to its elaborate gameplay options.
