It can achieve miracles and handle all content. It is also SSF viable, even though this PoB is not optimized for such purpose. This Build is not Min-Maxed and can easily reach higher numbers with better crafting tiers, corruptions etc... Don't blindly follow affixes on the items. There are here to showcase what you should aim but can be switched or upgraded. Don't forget to fill the items with whatever you can, such as crafts, defences, resistances or any offensive affixes that follow the build logic.

You need level 25 gem. This can be accomplished by two ways, assuming you have a level 23 gem (21 base + Empower 3, otherwise you will need to tweak around) : - Body Armour corrupted with +2 to Level of Socketed Minion Gems - Anointment Death Attunement ANIMATE GUARDIAN Budget - Midgame - Switch Critical - Dying Breath - Leer Cast - Ambu's Charge or Belly of the Beast - Rare Boots = Stats Affixes (Life, Elemental Resistances, Chaos Resistance...) - Rare Gloves = Stats Affixes (Life, Elemental Resistances, Chaos Resistance...) Expensive - Endgame - Kingmaker - Crown of the Tyrant - Garb of the Ephemeral - Legacy of Fury - Rare Gloves w Eater/Exarch Influence = Intimidate Enemies for 4 seconds on Hit + Inflict Lightning Exposure on Hit + Stats Affixes (Life, Elemental Resistances, Chaos Resistance...) Q&A Why Necromancer ? The Necromancer offers proximity to minion nodes and has a very strong Ascendancy to optimize your minion duration (Mistress of Sacrifice), damages and defenses (Commander of Darkness) but also provides leech for yourself (Bone Barrier revamp). It also offers a great synergy with Spectres if you want to play with them. Why not Guardian ? Guardian is very strong aswell. It is even easier to build around due to his early defenses and damages but lack potential upgrades for endgame/min-max. Also you don't take advantage of Spectres that much compared to the Necromancer. I would recommence the Guardian as a strong alternative for beginners. But if you want to push the build to its limits, I suggest Necromancer. Why BAMA is set to 9 in gems setup ? Bombarding Clones use Rain of Arrows and hit around 3 times per clones for a maximum of 3 clones. PoB only shows hit damage of a single arrow. With Concentrated Effect Support you can expect even more hits for single target, reducing your hit zone. What if I get BAMA Transfigured gems during the Campaign/First Lab ? If you are lucky enought to get the Transfigured gems that early you might need to change Lesser Multiple Projectiles Support/Greater Multiple Projectiles Support in your setup because the clones use Rain of Arrows and the scalling of this gem is not based on projectiles. You can replace them with Elemental with Attacks Support >> Volatility Support > Concentrated Effect Support What about Bandits ? Kill them All Which Pantheon do I use ? For Physical + Projectiles Mitigation : Lunaris + Gruthkul For Chaos, Poison and Damage over time : Arakaali + Shakari What 6th gem do I use for Blink Arrow ? For Speed Farming : Increased Critical Damage Support For Bossing : Concentratred Effect Support > Predator Support What Glorious Vanity do I need ? The one showcase in the build is just an example. You don't need to get this one as the most important part is to get the Divine Flesh Keystone. Feel free to experiment and search one that fits your budget. Also the number of points you will use around it will depends on which Glorious Vanity you take. To help you find a good one, you can use PoB Timeless Jewels Finder or this tool : https://vilsol.github.io/timeless-jewels Stats to search : - Minion Damage - Physical Damage Reduction - Armour - Maximum Life - Chaos Resistance - +1 Maximum Chaos Resistance - Any Elemental Resistances ... What Watcher's Eye do I need ? You can combine them together but they will be more expensive. List is sorted : - Purity of Elements : Chaos Resistance - Determination : Armour - Haste : Cooldown Recovery Rate of Movement Skills - Determination : Physical Damage Reduction - Purity of Elements : Physical Damage from Hits taken as Fire/Cold/Lightning Damage - Determination : Reduced Extra Damage from Critical Strikes - Any Immunity/Unnafected/Buffs...
