Found an Empower early in Act 6. I'm using a 5L chest with all blue sockets, and added Elemental Focus to the Arc setup (since I still had it from early in levelling). Should I color one of the sockets red so I can use the Empower until I'm ready for a real 5L or 6L setup?


Oh duh... I should have looked ahead... Ele Focus is indeed the 5th gem in the setup. LOL! Oh well. Anyplace else I canput it?
6 years old build and still viable. It's incredible. Congratz and big thanks to Enki.
When Enki updates for 3.13 will this guide just be updated or will there be a separate guide to look out for?

Enki edits the first few posts with the guide. So it will be this same thread.
"We don't want to take away the feeling of closing your eyes and Exalting an item, scared to see whether you ruined it or not." - Harvest Manifesto 3/10/2021

So unbelievably inane it has to be memorialized.
Can anyone tell me why the couple gems with the note of do not level past 1 is a requirement? I'm new to the game and accidently leveled them a few times and I haven't noticed anything going wrong with the build. Does anyone know what it's all about?

Cast when damage taken+tempest shield+ wave are 1 lvl due CWDT mechanic. CWDT triggers, when you get certain amount of damage. You want trigger CWDT as much as possible (when you get low amount of dmg). Gems supported by CWDT needs be certain level to trigger. (See text when you hoove mouse over the gem: for example lvl 1 CWDT requires up to 38lvl, so gems supported by CWDT needs be UP TO 38lvl to be triggered). Other gems as Enki says in first post, there is no gain from leveling them and we want low dex requirement.

he usually starts to update after the patchnotes are out
For any of us that might have an inclination to continue playing the latest Necro version, it looks like "Corpse Pact" needs to be changed out for "Commander of Darkness*. Any other ideas about this?

Nah, Corpse Pact is still better. Losing the 30% increased damage sucks, but it's a drop in the bucket with all the other sources of increased damage we have. The chill/shock is the most significant part of that node, and I would say the increased cast speed is also worth more than the damage.

Losing 20% increased mana on Essence Glutton sucks, but the functionality is still intact.

Overall, the necro version is absolutely still viable and even strong. I'm just curious to see what the elementalist version will be like. It will be tough to be as tanky, I think, but we'll know in a few weeks!
