Edit: I'm getting the same. I think this may be a pastebin error I generated those fresh.


You're right, for some reason it's triggering pastebin's spam detection filter. Apparently it happens to have some keyword that sounds spamm-ey...?

I have improved this dramatically. I am currently at 24m dps at level 91.

27m dps with 1 brand or 33m dps with 2 brands.
10k mana
Exploding Mobs (or tons more dps) / Tailwind / 30% Movement speed. It has it all. This is a screen clear build.

The only downfall is the lower life but we get more ES and I can't get RF to stay on without wrecking me.

Changed shock effect to 15

Edit: How do you have Energy Shield all over your gear but in the video you posted you have none? You also have more life.


Hey, got you 200 more life and millions more dps (2 brands) doing the following:

Added lvl 8 conductivity to ring, changed conductivity on chest to wave of conviction, changed all large cluster jewels to:

8 passives
1 Added Passive Skill is Doryani's Lesson
1 Added Passive Skill is Scintillating Idea
1 Added Passive Skill is Storm Drinker
2 Added Passive Skills are Jewel Sockets

Replaced all small cluster jewels with additional fevered minds. Took cruel preparation using points from eliminating small cluster jewels for life.

2.5k life
40.5m dps (shaper), 54.7mm dps for normal monsters.

I doubt you can sustain RF without the militant faith jewel.

Not sure if POB limits mana cost automatically or storm brand now costs more mana than you have.

What's it like using breathstealer gloves with the aura spore things?

Made a few changes to your original build to get more dmg without hopefully giving up on survivability.
Replaced lg cluster jewel with this, which is about 3ex:

8 passives
1 Added Passive Skill is Doryani's Lesson
1 Added Passive Skill is Scintillating Idea
1 Added Passive Skill is Storm Drinker
2 Added Passive Skills are Jewel Sockets

AddED wave on conviction instead of a curse in chest, using a ring with lvl 8 conductivity on hit (removed excess resist mod), and replacing the small cluster jewel with scintillating idea to another fevered mind. Added frenzy charges b/c blood rage. Added lightning dmg node above deep thoughts, and last lightning dmg node on large cluster jewel. Still lvl 98.

24.4m Shaper dps
still 4k life

Nevermind, price are in the pacebin.

Only one question about the prices. Standard / League?

Oh and what is the difference between this and a templar build?

I'm assuming delirium because you can't buy cluster jewels or archmage on standard.

Too many differences to list, I would rephrase that as what's the same between the temp/necro build, which would be that both use storm brand with archmage and the nec build is a pure life build using a lot of funky mechanics whereas temp is es with auras.

Maybe OP can chime in.
is the fortify gem really needed or without it we still doing fine? i wanna change it to WoC without disrupt my balanced resis :(

Just an extra defensive layer. Not needed at all 99% of the time. Nothing makes it that far. I may do the same, trying to stretch towards to 28M.

Short Answer: Necro is tankier, less expensive but with a lower damage ceiling. [~35M verus ~80M]. Everything still instaphases.

Feel free to check my Hierophant version as well.

Did a significant rework myself today. Currently: 3.5K life [7k EHP MOM] and 30.8M DPS. New PoB is included in guide.

Cool, can you notice the drop in HP when playing? How noticable is the increased dps?
