very rough video showing off the build i've been playing in the RotA Phrecia event; a puppeteer utilizing infernal legion on an AG and scaling damage through animated weapons and the Marionettes node.
I leaguestarted this and pretty much bruteforced the swap immediately after kitava by buying a Formless Inferno and Searing touch before running out of gold, leading to me jokingly referring to this build as "animate minecraft torch", because at that point my AG was just walking around as a burning stick with no body. despite that he was still able to clear things and honestly the build has been pretty smooth sailing the whole way.
far from the pinnacle of clearspeed, survivability or singletarget but i had a ton of fun with it, i think the build could pretty comfortably be pushed to nearly dotcap with maxblock and a decent ES pool but unfortunately I won't be able to play the event any more before it ends.
PoB has my current character as well as some notes on what i would be doing next if i was able to continue playing, if anyone feels like trying to put it together at some point :)
