Voltaxic BAMA Necro ~ Path of Exile 3.24

► Yooooooooo, Exiles!

This is my finished Voltaxic Bama Necro, against some Ubers and T17 content - a "true" BAMA build, making use of both Bombarding and Prismatic Clones for damage. This has the feel of a classic BAMA.

I did hit level 100, and the gear is for the most part finished now. Its not 100% perfect ( could not get the best corrupts) but everything more than this is honestly complete overkill as double hp mod Ubers is a thing of the past.

This build can tackle T17's in under ~2 minutes, demolishes all Ubers on the spot. Absolutely farms Destructive Play, Wisped and Ghosted Bosses and Rogue Exiles.

Just make sure to unsummon your AG for T17s, while you make your way to the boss rooms. DD and explosive barrels tend to oneshot even the tankiest AG. He should be fine against the boss.

Or, just drop all support minions and run a double 6-link clone setup instead and be done with it. This setup has the luxury to even do that without losing as much damage.

► The unique mechanics of this build:

The key feature of this build lies in the synergy between Voltaxic and Prismatic Clones. But before diving into why it's so potent, let's discuss Prismatic Clones. These clones have a minion variant of Elemental Hit, with no base damage unlike its player counterpart. With a staggering damage effectiveness, Prismatic Clones convert 100% of their physical damage to Fire, Cold, or Lightning.

Following the principle of alternating elements, they exclusively deal damage of the chosen element, with no impact from non-selected ones. Unlike the player version, these minions can still inflict chaos damage. However, just like the player elemental hit, all added damage of each element persists on the gem. This flat damage applies even if it isn't of the chosen element, and in that case it's only negated after damage conversion has applied. To leverage this mechanic I am stacking a huge amount of flat lightning damage, which was the goto for BAMA in 3.23, augmented by lucky hits via Perquils Amulet and the huge damage effectiveness of Prismatic Clones.

Now, enter Voltaxic - the star of this build. This bow now converts all that flat lightning damage to chaos, leveraging Prismatic Clones' unique mechanic to deal chaos damage, regardless of the element chosen (Fire, Cold, Lightning). Consequently, there's no need to isolate an element via Combat Focus jewels, making Voltaxic the optimal bow for Prismatic Clones. And Necro is now the perfect Ascendancy for this. GGG addressed a prior issue with Voltaxic in 3.24 - Wither application. Further, the big meaty hits of Prismatic Clones can easily cap out the max shock values of Voltaxic.

The results speak volumes. Such damage output on a single Cluster, not even a 12 passive one, with no real damage aura besides Haste, is kinda unheard of on a minion build. And this isn't even its final form. With a double cluster non-Mageblood version, you can push 300-400m dps.

► Spectres: Spectral Leader, Wild Bristle Matron, Pale Seraphim

► Gem Swaps: Yes, I am using Conc Effect as single target gem swap. PoB says it works on Prismatic Clones, and I am starting to think PoB is right. I did try out Awakened Void Manipulation, but Conc Effect gave me much higher shocks and just way faster boss kills.
