Well This is the build for you!
Concept:
Basically this is my take on a dominating blow build. I figured the best way to scale the army of minions was to provide them with a lot of auras. We go low life with 12 Auras. We also use a 2 x Carnage Chieftain to produce frenzy charges for us and our minions. Lastly a animated guardian gives us and our minions some nice damage and speed boosts. I wanted to be tanky and also have unkillable minions and that is what has been achieved.
Highlights: 83 Fire, 83 Cold 84 Lightning Max Resists
Positive Chaos Resist
Very High Physical Mitigation
Very High Evasion
Fast and Mobile
Crazy Total DPS
10K+ Energy Shield
Can AFK during Delve Checkpoints
High Regen
Can run any map mods
3.8 League Start Update
Spoiler
So 3.8 brings another huge round of buffs!
Main changes:
Huge Minion Buffs
Carrion Golem is Nuts!
Ascendency Changes.
Synthesis Items are Back! Depending on how rare these are we can get a circle of guilt and bottle faith again.
An Oiled Amulet allows us to grab Champion of the Cause which is amazing!
Updated PoB: https://pastebin.com/N14EyxTb
Only thing missing is new gems - I imagine swapping in Feeding Frenzy Somewhere.Will do a more detailed update of the guide once we have played a bit in 3.8.
Changelog
Spoiler
3.7 Update
Hey All,
So we lost all the synthesis gear :( but with all the other buffs we should still be ahead this patch.
Initial Updates:
Replaced Vitality for Flesh and Stone
Moved HoP to +3 Unset Ring replacing Circle of Guilt
Added Low Level Precision to Weapon
Replaced Grace Aura with Pride
Moved Specters to The Hungry Loop
Main Gem Links Changed
POB

3.6 Mid League Update
Big changes to the build for synthesis. Been playing this and have created a new mark 3 version. Build has twice as much DPS and survivability as it's original incarnation now. Synthesis brought many more new tools to the game which unfortunately will be gone!
Highly recommend you play this build this league or in the 1 Month race.
What's 3.6 Brought:
LVL 36 Spectres
Removed hatred Aura
Changed Gems to Pure Phys Build
Added 5 Link Herald of Purity using new rings
Added new gear to Animated Guardian.
3.6 Update
Some nice buffs to the build.
We'll be using Kingmaker on our AG because it is OP.
Also replacing our sulfur flask with a bottled faith because WTF is that thing, its about 15% more damage to all our minions.
Lastly grabbing Arcane Will on passive tree now because that node is insane = to +125 Maximum Energy Shield.
Patch 3.5 Mid League Update:
3.5 Has given us some nice tools. We now use War Banner and Aspect of the Spider. Also you can get 28% quality on armor which is nice.
Patch 3.5 Update:
I've updated the build to the Mark 2 build I played at the end of the league. Banners look really good and I'll be updating again once POB has the gems updated.
Main differences with skills is that we have gone up to 12 Auras, including Smite. We now have grace and determination added on for bossing and delving. For maps we can switch to Wrath and Anger instead. For Uber Elder I ended up using Wrath/Anger just because we need to kill those Madness Propagators as fast as possible. We also dropped Vaal Skellies to add in fortify to our six link.
Gear was a few big changes. Using an alpha's howl with an aura reservation enchant so we can reserve our extra auras. We using corrupted +2 Gem levels on our shield and boots and our sharper's gloves have a curse on hit corruption. We are using Soul Taker axe now as we have no mana. We also have -1% reservation corruption on one of our jewels.
Tree is pretty much the same though I went with RT on uber elder to maximize sentinel spawns.
Necromancer vs Guardian
Spoiler
Necro: A lot more damage(Especially once +2 skill Fix) and minions are basically immortal. You are less tanky though, more reliant on ES recharge.
Guardian: More ES and regen. Better for party play.
Rest of the gear can be altered and I have detailed this below, you can level as life until making the switch just fine as well.
POB:

This includes budget options and leveling trees
Ascendancy:
Spoiler
Radiant Crusade
Unwavering Crusade
Radiant Faith
Bastion of Hope until you get a Presence of Chayula then switch to Unwavering Faith
Gear Breakdown:
Spoiler
Ignore Gems mostly, Follow the POB Chest:[/b]
Basically Mandatory for Low Life, the gold standard. 4 Red is the minimum for smooth gameplay.
Main Hand:
This is a good budget option. Even better would be a bound fossil crafted Gemini Claw with minion damage, 2% damage Aura mod and crafted minion attack speed.
Need this if you don't have enough mana sustain or mana available.
Off Hand:
The perfect shield for this build, High Resists, some dexterity we need and allows us to reserve all our life with +leveled Gems. +2 Corruption on AoE or Aura gems is tight.
Gloves:
Provides a massive energy shield boost, huge evasion and accuracy boost, increased damage, mana and they are cheap. Budget option is to just not have the corruption.
Boots:
Great all round boots, high ES, Stats, and 30% movespeed. 2 Corruption on AoE or Aura gems is tight.
Helm:
Crazy with this build. Mana reduction is huge and gives +2 to gems. Cannot be Frozen and chill avoidance is really nice as well.
Belt
Basically a Abyss Belt with Aspect of the Spider, High Energy Shield, any missing strength, and covering the rest of your resists.
Amulet:
IMPORTANT: You want to anoint this with the Champion of the Cause Passive, otherwise you will need enlighten LVL4 in your helm.
Cannot be stunned, Insane ES boost, 60% Chaos resist. The Gold Standard for LL.
Ring 1:
5 Link Spectres are nuts. Ignore the setup here, check the POB.
Bottle Faith is Expensive. Replace with regular sulphur flask.

Gloves: Southbound - Life and Damage Boots: Victario's Flight - Movement Speed Aura
Spectres:
Spoiler
We use 2 Carnage Chieftans (Frenzy Charges) and 2 Host Chieftans (Power Charges). You can grab these from ACT 7 The Ashen Fields. Use a desecrate in weapon swap.
Changes:
Added the new Gems
Circle of Guilt rings are nice and cheap so Herald of Purity is by default in our chest piece.
With the mana buffs we actually don't need soul taker. We can actually go The Scourge or even better a bound fossil crafted Gemini Claw
Cleaned up the build
As far as crafting the claw, do you just throw a single bound fossil at the claw until you get good rolls?
Or are there any other recommended steps?
Thanks!
Hey everyone. I got scammed of my 5R shavs so I'm going to quit the league. If anyone is looking at this guide and is deciding to start this build on a new character, then please contact me in this thread.
I have a full set of gear ready for you(except the 6L shavs). It may not be the most optimal but at least its something to get you going. This build has taken me up to red elder and T15s and I only died a few times due to extreme lag that is the singapore server. In fact, from the time I transitioned into ES, there was no time at all that I was even scared of dying. Truly a great build.
I was going to attempt uber elder soon but my journey ends here for this league. I do hope that my gear will be of use to someone else. This offer is only for those who really need the help to get started. I hope that through this, you will be able to climb to greater heights and help me achive what I could not.
The following gear is what I have to offer:
Just let me know in this thread and I will get back to you. Sorry to OP for hijacking.
EDIT : gone thanks everyone

Just wanted to commend user: 02987, he is a cool guy, there was no "catch" about his post. He gave me the majority of the gear and offered advice on how to go about this since I'm during the leveling process now.
Wanted to say thanks to @02987 again! Much appreciated!
Best wishes, guys/gals! Take care!
