Guide works fine. I'm just looking for some tweaks for improvements.

I'll post a 3.10 update in a couple of hours.

About the ascendancy debate.

I have gotten Mindless Aggression, Unnatural Strength, Mistress of Sacrifice and Commander of Darkness.

It makes easier to cap resistances without that much rare gear + I keep both 30% chaos damage (from Spirit offering) AND 30% from Commander of Darkness. AND I can change the gameplay with the other two offerings.

It's just that Bone Barrier seems a lot worse after the nerf.

Also, how mandatory is to run Vaal Molten Shell and do we still use Skitterbots?

Great guide and thanks a lot for your effort to help us newbies :)

Tbh im skipping the delirium portals until they adjust them, which they already said they will coming up.

I can do the majority of them without dying but its just not worth it, I get no joy racing through a whole fkng map just to have to back track to the start to pick everything up.

Imo this is the dumbest league mechanic since beastiary. If they remove the timer, and scale the incoming damage down I will have np doing it, otherwise its just not worth it for me atm, not for the current rewards anyways.

I mostly adopted to your posted links (gem and passive) and try to get up to your gear so first thanks for that. But i have a question related to summon holy relic. I understand we use it to keep the minions healthy and the regen is also nice on us, but does the "minions cannot taunt enemies" disable our zombies? Wouldn't this kinda negate the 20% chance to taunt on meat shield? While running through Delirium (which i most likely will drop until GGG nerfs it) i sometimes find some big guys chasing my poor necro furiously when convocation is on cd so it feels like the taunt is gone.
Most likely will have to buff up the minions speed also, so that my zombies can keep up with my running or at least with my chasers.

Following this build right now, feels nice, but... Why do we use Cyclone? It's dps near to nothing. Only for stun immunity? To auto-trigger Offering?

yes, cyclone is a channeling skill so with cast while channeling you activate desecrate and the offering you want to use :) you can alternate offerings for speed clear or damage reduction :)

Ah, okay, thank you. I just thought there is some hidden mechanic cuz another necro-builder (whom i've followed another league) switched to cyclone too. Well, if Cyclone only for auto-trigger i might swap it to more suitable for me cuz i'm not too lazy to tap another 2 buttons and are to greedy to waste 2 gem slots (pure IMHO) :D

Great :) let us know if you find something interesting

How can I see the resistances of my zombies?

Base resistance is 40% elemental and 20% chaos resistance.

By hovering over your zombie skill you can see what additional resistance they are getting.

So,I've got a question for everyone. I am Running maps, dps is fine for red maps, but my minions, more specifically golems and zombies are just getting rocked by delirium mobs in deeper depths. To be even more specific, It looks like they are getting annihilated by on death effects and all the countless explosions. Running with a 6link femus and Bone offering. Not sure what to do now to get the minions a little more tanker.

Read the FAQ in guide. It looks like you have no minion resistances allocated or any minion leech.

Question answered while i was posting

Ok guys, YES, YOU CAN farm T16s comfortably on a budget still.

Here is a vid of T16 Canyon with:

5L Femurs
No Awakened damage gems
4L Chest (+2 link)
No Watcher's Eye
No Lethal Pride or Elegant Hubris
No Animate Guardian
Empower level 3
No helmet enchant
Budget Gear

I even have Essence Glutton ascendancy specc'ed which does NOTHING for this setup (no ES). So that's a whole extra ascendancy you can take.

My recommendation is to start with this setup, farm end-game and make some $$$ to transition into a late-game setup.

About DELIRIUM MECHANICS:
YOU have to make the decision if you want to run a delirium or not in each map. That is the whole purpose of the risk/reward. GGG did make it very clear it is a high risk for high reward league. But yes, deliriums mechanics are way overtuned considering every build is struggling with it.

My recommendation would be to just level up and skip delirium until GGG nerfs it (which they will). This would get you farming all T16's etc and you'll then have bank to splash on things while everyone else is stuck for the time being trying to run deliriums :P

Once you start making $$$ you can then scale up significantly by getting all the end game gear.

I have added this as one of the setups in the guide.

Tomorrow I'll post an update on my recommended end-game setup.

Enjoy!
