Overview
[Theorycrafting] Animate Guardian Popcorn (Meme Territory) is a Path of Exile Necromancer build by hyperfish3d, made for the Ultimatum league (3.14). It is centered on Animate Guardian and plays as a strength, spell, minion, lightning archetype. Defensively it sits at 1 life, 2.97K energy shield. Suited for: Legion. Key uniques include Replica Siegebreaker.
hyperfish3d's Notes
disclaimer: this isn't supposed to be a serious build. But maybe someone can turn it into viable youtube content and/or have fun with it.
​
Since low life is at 50% HP pool lately, I had the idea to use Animate Guardian with Minion Instability. Since AG has a large HP pool and this scaled very well with levels. Also, on body armour there is the craftable mod that AG drops the armour he is wearing - so AG can be made into popcorn infinitely.
DPS would then result from: 1. cast speed 2. how fast AG goes to 50% HP 3. how fast the armor drops to the ground.
To get the AG to 50% I use Infernal Legion (anomalous). So with 0% Fire Res of the AG it takes 1sec to get to 50%. With Fortress Covenant with 10 Notables, the AG takes +200% increased damage. So he should die after 0.33 sec. DPS would be (with the right amount of Cast Speed) about 3x what PoB shows. My current PoB DPS is 4.5 Mill Shaper DPS (x3 = 13.5).
My PoB Gear is very expensive and I have gone up to level 100 to show the absolute top end of the build.
Maybe a meme build can be made out of it. However, I don't know how to scale Minion Instability Damage further.
