This leage my goal was to farm my first The Economy of Necropolis league was kind to me so I actually managed to get one. It was clear that I wanted to make a dedicacted build for it (payed 58 Div when the prices started rising again). I also never had the chance to build around which happend to be unusually cheap this time around as well (payed 60c around the dip). So this whole build started as "What can I do with a Mageblood and a Squire?" Building the build concept At this stage I had now Idea what flask setup I wanted to use but having a squire I was dedicated not to settle with a 6 or 7 link. So the weapon was gonna be a shaper/elder with "socketed gems are supported by xyz" Having in mind that a lot of links/supports will cost a lot of mana, and without a futzher plan to pay the cost, the weapon of choice was gonna be a GEMINI_CLAW for the "grants 14c mana on hit" implicit. Now the next step was to decide elder vs. shaper or when looking at the possible support affixes: Phys vs. Elemental. At this time around I realized that any shaper/elder claw with mainly "supported by" affixes will have basically zero damage. So the question was how to get enough flat added damage. Sure we can sacrifices support gems or takle a skill wqhihcb already has damage inbuilt (spells or ele hit) but there must be more and better ways. This gave the deccision for the Guardian Ascendancy because of "Unwavering Crusade" which gives us Anger hatred and Wrath aruas for free (so added fire, phys as cold + more cold damage and added lightning) From there to dominating blow was honestly just scrolling through skills and thinking that 250ish % effectivness of added damage sounds legit enough plus the minions will also benefit from the auras. Looking at dominating blow of Inspiring which makes "increase and reduction to minions damage also apply to this skill at 300 % (20% quality) sounded than like a very solid way to scale damage --> a lot of added damage + a ton of increased through minion damage + a >6 link (11) (plus some minions to join me on the journey) And a Mageblood to help "soften the edges" BUILD OVERVIEW It is hard for me to judge how "good" or "fast" or "eficient" this build is. But I had tons of fun playing, testing and creating it, leveing it to 100 and taking on T17, Here is the POB in its "final" form: https://pobb.in/eouyqlQ4pp9q My personal judgement would be PRO: -- decently tanky (a bit short of 5k life. 58/57 block with no flasks, 80/76/85/30 res, life gain on hit, 3 endurance charges, immune to corruputing blood / frozen / shock / ignite and decently safe against poison and bleed, burst healing via Time of need, fortify, Sentinel of radiance [20 of hits is taken from this guy before you]) -- solid damage (around 7 Million Shaper DPS + more or less 1 Million DPS from Minions) -- Melee and no totems in sight -- it is not a Meta build CON: -- no idea if in any way "budget efficient" -- it is not a Meta build
