[3.4] 4 6L Solar Guard Spectres + 3-5 7L Flame Golems | Fast Clear | Melt Bosses | Tank | Cheap
" Yea, hard to believe but i've played a lot of DP zerker. Harbringer, turmoil and mayhem to 100, and this build makes DP zerker seem not that op lol. |

Just about to give this a go, character is leveling now as I pick up gear with whoops. I think my setup will be:
* Brightbeak/Ahn's Heritage * Wyrmsign (non corrupt) * 2x Fragility Jewels * 5-link Golems in +2 Helm with Minion Damage, below * MOM with the Essence Worm ring for the aura. Couple quick questions: * What links should I have in the Minion Damage helm? Still FG-Echo-GMP-Focus? Or would Conc Effect replace Ele Focus? I assume the Lazy Mode Slower Proj paragraph would be a bossing thing replacing GMP in the links? Picked up a helm for 40c yesterday, didn't check if the rarity was a prefix, suffix, or an unfortunate P+S combo, I'll probably craft on this later in the league as money comes in. * I'm ~400 fuses into my Vis Mortis and will probably just accept a 5-link once my witch is high enough level to equip, I wouldn't drop Spell Echo from your list of links, right? Would it be Ele Focus dropped from the 6L-5L? * If I'm not going tri-curse yet, is it worth the passive points to just run the dual curse setup on Ball Lightning? Looking forward to this quite a bit, I've got the atlas nearly 100% filled out with my slow as hell AW Totem bosskiller, so I'd be happy to make some short videos of high tier maps with the build once I get up to level.

" For your helm id run fg, elemental focus, gmp, spell echo. I haven’t personally looked at the numbers but you can just run a tabula or rare armory over a five link Vis Mortis and you will be fine. Forget the lazy mode part, it just helps to insta kill end game bosses without switching gems. Yes I did mean to switch gmp with slower projectiles but right now I actually think pierce is better for the range. I really don’t recommend MoM, but you can test it out yourself. Also I’m glad your going for the rampage setup, it’s by far the most fun setup of any build I’ve played. Only thing is the build will be a little low on minion damage so any minion damage you can find elsewhere will add a lot of damage. Minion damage has diminishing returns so that’s why running fg rather than pure specters does some much more damage. You replace a bit of minion damage you can get from jewels and gear for a full flame golem setup Last edited by ivanius#6674 on Jan 3, 2018, 3:33:02 PM

" Thanks for the reply! I'm confused, I thought earlier in this thread (like pp 3 or 4) you said you recommended the MOM setup as strongest? Might have misread, I'll test both setups I suppose once I'm up at level. Looking forward to it! |

I love the build its been fun since I picked it up. I just have a couple questions. First, the gems have been updated but i noticed the gems in your belt and the gems for the tree are the same. So, I run similar gems in the tree and belt or did I miss something. Next, I dont think I get how to best summon specters. My desecrate is at level 18 now I think. I summon them in Act 8 but they are starting to die in level 9 maps. I'm a necro newb and I don't understand how I get high level specters that can do the rest of the content. It seems the patch changed how specters used to be summoned and I'm not completely sure how to get high enough level ones.

" Goto A8 and take out spell echo. Desecrate and get Solar Guards (hold a to highlight so you know it is a solar guard). Since your desecrate is only level 18, buy a +2 chaos gem shield and put ur desecrate in there. Goto a high level map (Shaper's realm or last room in Oba's) and desecrate until you see a solar guard (hold a to highlight so you know it is a solar guard). DONT RAISE THE SOLAR GUARD YET. Unequip your armour so your current Solar Guards disapear and now you can raise the Spectre. Now you have 1 high level spectre, you can keep desecrating and raising spectres until you have 3-4. |

If we can currently only afford a 5L vis mortis, which gem in the 6L takes the least priority and gets the cut temporarily?
|
|
Do we put in slower projectiles in the flame golem links for bosses?
