Obviously before patch notes yada yada. A bit in the middle between a build concept and an actual build, there should be some avenues to get more out of this build still.

Idea was to make ignite minions viable, and to not use spectres because as it looks now they'll be squishy and are hard to resummon if they die.

We know Reaper is "playable" at best, but it has some downsides:

  • Clear is mediocre and requires asenath's
  • You have to use a bow for ensnaring arrow, which means no shield charge

Ignite could solve the issues because you can link prolif to your Reaper. And ignite got a 250% more damage buff in 3.19 which should make it deal some damage at least.

Some key points about this build:

  • Uses Eldritch Battery to enable Divine Blessing and Reaper's high mana cost
  • Should be able to suppress cap or at least get close to it(easy cap if you give up on +1 phys on shield)
  • Determination + Grace + Defiance Banner + Tempest Shield
  • Triad Grip for full fire conversion
  • 2 clusters with Rage and Pillage for damage & ignite chance
  • Ignite duration equal to slash cooldown
  • Ascendant because no ascendancy really gives us that much, this allows us to go Elementalist(damage) + Champ(damage & aura effect)

Downsides I could see:

  • Reaper could be a bit squishy, hoping a bone ring can cap its resistances at least
  • Reaper randomly slashing not being enough for clear, and not enough CDR to slash all the time, hoping a potential swap to Stone Golems for clear could solve this
  • Damage is fine for ignite, but nothing crazy for today's standards, so if something is unrealistic it could easily be disappointing.
