Main difference on other skeleton mages is that this build WILL use the new unique belt The Burden of Truth. Otherwise this is a mayorly sub-par and not swag build. I also managed to squeeze 5 auras: Defiance Banner, Determination, Purity of Elements, Zealotry and Tempest Shield. We DO lose Generosity on Zealotry, so it is slightly weaker than other Generous builds. The main take away is that this is in theory extremely defensive, specially in mapping. 1 shot bosses will still one shot you because 1 shots. This build

Hello all, My friends have been asking for my skelly mage build from 3.17 and I thought I'd share it here, there are a few differences/additions from what I've seen on other builds. It's extremely tanky. Custom mods are from an AG setup. This was a highly optimized character that I spent 2 months building, so the gear is expensive. But it gives you an idea of what to aim for. Skelly mage is something I've played for 2 years now, and it's always been reliable as a league starter than can transition to doing all endgame content. I'll be rolling this again in 3.18 and look forward to the new ub

Hi there exiles, I was planning on trying a strong tank build and thought on making some changes on the usual mage skeleton tree. What do you think about it? I am a bit concerned about the mana because probably it makes everything a bit slow while maping but anyways I think it will be enough.

So this was a build i played in the past and it seems like the numbers are still good. The main thing i found was the massive amount of defence in the build. The build would use items like alphas howl Prism Guardian shavs Ashes of the Stars I think with really high investment you could drop prism guardian and shavs and go CI but that seems really high end gear. This then lets you slap a whole load of aura's using both life and mana possibly 10+. With the necro ascendency for Commander of Darkness this also gives our mini

Hi guys, Just wanted to share my final carrion golem build. Few things I wanted to do to go higher, craft my wands to have T1 minion damage, I spent a ton of exalts trying to hit this and decided to give up and leave them where they were once I hit them. I tried to find a certain glorious vanity I wanted to use with the aura inc effect node but I couldn't, also didn't find a slumlord jewel. I've nuked all content in the game, from the juiced feared, simulacrums, flawless breachstones were probably the hardest content given the nature of minion builds and not having uber clear vs single tar

Ok this is an absolution necro with minion army, we use basically all uniques with 4-6 jewel slots to make up for the rest. The dps is actually potent with 3-5 million sirus dps and we get around 40k eva with 40k armor on 4-5k life. This build can clear any content.

&x200B; I'd like to think this build won't die in 1 hit by white t16 mobs but still squeezed some survivability in. I don't know how survivable this actually is. Also please let me know if I missed anything in the PoB that wouldn't make this build work &x200B; If anyone has close to enough currency (Probably 5 mirrors?) to do this I'd like to see it in action!

This is my backup plan for league start next league, if nothing new/buffed piques my interest, and if armour and evasion both somehow avoid the nerf hammer again. Zombies seem to have a very low representation on the SSFHC ladders, but it's pretty easy to get 1M+ damage on them with a ton of budget left over for tankiness. 1.2M DPS with the Determination/Grace/Defiance Banner trinity, 100% spell suppression, and 62/37 block. Any suggestions for improvements would be welcome!
