[2.6] 12 Aura Necrobot: The Legend of Aura

I'm planning on trying to pick up the Indomitable cluster between the Marauder and Templar areas. This build seems to handle everything else better than spiky damage and oneshots thanks to Zealoth's regen, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
It may not help against things like Atziri's Flameblast, but at least it should prevent a dose of random mob crits from oneshotting the character. Bonus points on being a lifesaver on endgame critmod maps. On the other hand, I could just pick up 18% more energy shield.

Thoughts?

P.S. many thanks for the build guide. As someone who usually gravitates towards support role in many games I knew I wanted to do something just like this. Didn't know it was possible, but I sure am glad I do now. So far my playgroup has been loving it: one of them keeps cracking up because he doesn't have to stack AS nearly as much as he should since Commander of darkness is hilariously effective.

Just a heads up, Indomitable may not reduce the damage as much as expected.

The wiki has details on it along with an example HERE.

I'm really having so much fun with your build. Currently I'm running 11 auras (no Wrath) and this is my profile and tree, I dont know if the 20% reduced purity of elementals mana reservation enchanted can help me run Wrath.
My profile:

My skilltree 114 points, level 91:
Thank you!

Thanks for the heads-up!

Most notably monsters having only 130% multiplier on crit limits the usefulness of Indomitable greatly. The ES nodes actually seem to give a comparable increase in defenses even against crits unless we assume a higher multiplier - the loss of armor is unfortunate but of little concern as far as I know.

Seems I will be respeccing into more ES.

Following this build, i wish the guide was cleaned up. Theres like 6-7 different gear posts. It should at least broken down into: lvl 1-30, 30-50, 50-80, just so its easier to follow. Theres more that needs to be fixed/cleaned up with the guide, cuz damn its not easy to follow. Like for example, one of the gear lists on the guide show Curse on hit with ball lightning and enfeeble? But thats not anywhere on the other gearsets posted. Im just asking it be more standardized/streamlined. And if its too much work to post a bit bit progression for the build, then just post a finished product instead.

You did great on breaking down the skill tree progression, but the gear lists and gems are a nightmare to sift thru and figure out what one should be aiming for.

Tends to happen when the build has been around for nearly a year of changes (ie running 2 Curses in Perandus League then ditching when they buffed Commander of Darkness), but yea I understand that.

I'll get around to it when I have the time to, for gear itself to aim for I consider Breach league as the peak.

Trying to min/max, anything else I could do/add?

Well, without elreon ring/amu -8, how do you manage to use your shield charge? :>

I'm able to keep up with Quicksilvers and Vaal Clarity for the most part. At least, I don't seem to have a problem with staying next to the ST... If it's worth dropping Vaal Clarity though and slotting Disc into it, I'll try it out.

Just wanted to give a quick update to those interested about running Victario's.

I got max Chaos resist and around ~222 health regen per second. Was able to absorb the chaos damage I was taking from a T10 map. I'm sitting with around 400 health unreserved.

WOULD NOT SUGGEST THIS FOR HC.
