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?

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

I'm working on poison Dark Pact for next league. The shared PoB has some issues I am aware of (empower lvl2, under-leveled gems in general, some gear pieces are terrible - especially wand, missing Passive ascendancy jewels). I pulled the gear I had from different builds so it is kinda strange. I am mainly looking for if you guys have ideas for some structural changes, rather than amplifying current state by getting better gear doing the same thing I am doing. maybe some new interactions I don't have, some interesting legendar

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

&x200B; A8 Sirus T16 Mapping \(before power charge ramp up it feels bad\) UPDATE 1: added a video for mapping. This is a build I found from a Chinese creator who played last league. However, I didn't find anyone who played it this way on Ninja so I decided to give it a try. Feel pretty strong compare to other builds with similar investment, especially at bossing. The core concept is that Divergent Dark Pact can recover minions 2% life on hit which enabled the poss

Helmet - diadem is probably BiS because it allows for easy blessing and provides solid ES and eldritch battery. We path close to enough to take EB so something else is possible but would take a great item. Good enchants are any aura, shockwave totem cast speed, or despair curse effect. 1-1.5 divines Armor - sotl with ancestral bond. Nothing going to come close. 30-80Chaos Weapon. Get a fractured chaos dot and spam cast speed for dot multi or phys/all spells. suffixes can't be changed, veiled chaos, hope for phys to chaos or chaos. 2-10D depending on how much you want to go for.
