DireGray's Notes
Version 2 Video is up! https://youtu.be/wAwBLKLdtW8
Animate Guardian can be equipped with The Grey Wind along side a Rathpith Globe and Crown of Eyes to get massive scaling from the players health pool! Then the play can give it a second Rathpith Globe by wearing it themselves and specing into Necromatic Aegis! This turns the Animate Guardian into an insane beast. Though there are still drawbacks which hopefully further version of the build can improve upon.
