PoE builds similar to 3.28 How to Use Unholy Trinity | Stormburst Reliquarian Build Breakdown

Just got done making my first build for 3.16, figured I'd share. This is NOT a league starter, you will have to do a starter build (probably necro DD) to get the gear to play it. Flasks and stats on rares, excluding required (or really good) rolls, are left blank to be filled as you wish. Rare stats will be maximizing energy shield, capping resists, capping stat reqs, getting minion life rolls, and getting chaos gem levels or chaos damage. NOTE: It is not known how rare or expensive the shield will be, the build can be played without it at approximately ~80% dps

Are people sleeping on dark pact as a league starter for 3.17, or is it just too weak. I know, there are the EAs and Nightblade/elusive builds, but dark pact seems to be super strong with no investment whatsoever. No uniques required. Random PoB Occ with no gear, lvl 85 and a 5l Dark pact gives me around 1m single target It scales with minion life, crit, chaos dmg, 5 chains. This has to be at least solid. somebody playing it in 3.16?

pob: socket a devouring totem in crest desire is a good idea but will need to rearrange sockets. &x200B; Inspired by &x200B; Dps is very solid even without elemental overload. Considering this is a mageblood build, I'd say defense is not good.

A different take on classic Dark Pact Necromancer with Prism Guardian and Rational Doctrine.

This is my first own build and only a THEORY CRAFT until league start. The idea of the build is to self-cast Dark Pact with mana cost of >= 100 to trigger [[Kitava's Thirst]] which then summons the skeletons, casts Desecrate and Flesh Offering, which in return powers the 200% cast speed of corpse pact. I plan to start this league with self casted Skeletons + Dark Pact and transition into this build as soon as it is possible. (need a 6L and [[Fevered Mind]] to hit the 100 mana breakpoint, OR link with archmage gem) Mana regen is gonna be interesting since our Dark Pact costs 100+ mana and

PoB : poe.ninja (may not be updated yet) : ---------- Hello, I've been planning to make this character for the past few months, and I'm glad that it only took me around 10 days on a fresh league to complete it to a reasonnable level.   It's an Occultist built around Dark Pact, which is a skill that can reach insanely high base damage on high life Skeletons. In my current setup, my Skeletons have slightly more than 35k life, bringing Dark Pact's base DPS to 7k, or rather 21k since it chains t

POB: Looking into playing dark pact totem as a starter that can scale into end game. With trash gear, lv17 gems, and a 5 link this should do 500K dps. Which can scale to 5.5m dps with investment. Defense is MoM, HP, ES, and the totem play style. Debating between swapping out zealotry for vaal discipline if I feel squishy. Anyone have experience with DP totems? Main thing is I am sure the build will feel very clunky until getting astral projector. Hopefully not unplayble clunky.
