PoE Simulacrum builds without Blood Mage

Hi everyone, When Trinity Support was announced I was pretty hyped. My first instinct is to abuse it with a support spell that uses a different element and exists for the sole purpose of generating resonance for your main skill. As it gives 50% more elemental damage and 20% elemental penetration, it is one of the most powerful supports available to elemental self cast spells. Luckily, there is already a powerful self-cast build involving a 2 spell combo: Frostbolt - Ice Nova. This build utilizes a lightning damage Frostbolt to grant

Could use Despair or Elemental Weakness. Despair will add a bit of extra chaos damage to the hit and might work better against bosses. Need to figure out how I will get multiple curses out. Witchfire Brew, Bane, Vixen's Entrapment are all options. Probably going with Witchfire Brew though. Could use Flame Wall as an additional damage skill. Support with high Spell Damage Multipliers.

But when meddling in Pob theres just too much Traveling - the Bleed Multiplier nodes are all in the Marauder-vicinity, while crit is a massive investment in the Ranger / Assassin area. Overall i managed to build 4.7 m

PoB: The combo: 1. Use Corpsewalkers to generate corpses. This enables the corpse path of the Necromancer ascendancy. 2. Use Blood Offering from Bloodbond to consume the corpses. Use the Offering path from Necro to grant us a huge chunk of that life regen, enabling us to sustain Righteous Fire. 3. Use Soulwrest to summon a Phantom every time we consume a corpse, which is very often. 4. To not kill ourselves with 3 Blood Offerings /s we use a lvl 1 CwC and Leash of Oblation to link 3 more offerings. 5. Also use Escalation, Call t
