This is the kind of build I've been looking for, been trying to build the season 4 necro and its my first time actually playing the season & going past lvl 20.

[@AustoLaVista]

Right now I'm lvl 80 not the best gear perfect affixes etc pushing mid 50 tier dungeons and it doesn't really matter Minions is just obliterating everything and Golem is almost 1 shotting everything and it's super fun and enjoyable 😅

[@markd9318]

I did tier 99 at level 87. I never got past tier 40 in other seasons. I got one shot by the skelly balistas several times......but clutched it

[@WishlockPSN]

I was gonna say I was doing NM100 at 86 and competed a pit60. 2nd character, got the barb to 100 but was to weak and made a Necro the second I hit 100.

I'm level 72 rn and I haven't struggled for a damage... how are you struggling... mages skellys and golem just wreck everything... I did capstone at level 30 lol

I should also say that most of my playthrough I also didn't get a suffixes that helped me.. barely got any additional damage or vulnerable damage not even some summons damage

[@omeryamak1125]

@@isseihyoudou4872 "low damage" is relative notion. Being able to kill enemies is not enough for me.And clearing nm dungs even t100 or helltide bosses is not important. important thing is clear high level pit and other 200lvl bosses rapidly. i should be able to one shot everything

[@jakehender3949]

If your not using a basic skill how are you generating essence?

[@loukie1158]

Keep in mind cult leader states a cap of 100% so going past 100% attack speed does not give you a more x damage multiplier

[@max6jay]

I have a similar build and pushed to pit 70 but I don't think I could do a tormented boss.....if you show solo it would be more convincing as the 4 man finish only shows you possibly got carried.

[@Gage_M94]

I think if you pushed pit to 70, you can do a tormented boss. I defeated the tormented boss at Tree of Whispers yesterday just fine and I was probably at a similar level of strength.

[@max6jay]

I know you're featuring the build... but your necromancer is absolutely stunning. What transmogs do you have on her?

[@grogesy1344]

hi mate do you use decompose?

[@BrutteGaming]

You will use decompose until you have resource management under control… there is an aspect to make decompose hit multiple targets and increase the explosion dmg you can use as well while leveling.

[@pierrepellerin249]

Interesting build. I plan on testing a few once I reach lvl 100. Am adding this one to the list. Am now level 86 necro. doing tier 71 in NM dungeons. Started at the pit today, only at level 19 I believe. Haven't had time to push higher. Currently working on leveling up glyphs and saving up 925 gear (3+ stash tab full). Have fun people.

[@TheOriginalVaj]

What the hell do you need 3 tabs of 925 gear for??

[@farukyurdoglu3326]

i wa level 90 and completed nm 100. and i idid this same guys leveling build. u defintly should use this one. have fun :)

[@pierrepellerin249]

@@TheOriginalVaj I do not know what I will need when I go for a full endgame build or 2. Having say 15 helms or 20 rings to choose from will allow me to make all pieces in one sitting. This will save me from having to go farm gear pieces while using a half completed endgame build. This also save me time while farming right now. I don't have to waste time looking at each pieces and trying to figure out if it's good or not. I just drop them all in stash and go right back out.

[@GabrielGonzalez-mw9cg]

A bit of a mix up when you got to Frenzied Dead Aspect. You mentioned how you got your atk spd cap with your current build (with grandfather) by taking Kalands Edict, but didnt mention how you were getting the cap when you aren't using Kalands Edict (with grandfather) and switch to ShadowBlight. You would be sitting at 88%(ish) with this build, not capping out Cult Leader. I ended just switching Frenzied Dead to my Amulet to fix that.

[@julpet6145]

The node "Targeted" looks different to mine. I do not have +% damage to elites. I have only +% to injured opponents

[@Trasc066]

I don't know why but neither raising my own attack speed or using Kalen's Edict seems to raise my Minion Attack Speed. Only thing that seems to work is tempering my weapon with it. Currently sitting at 33.1%

[@bryunarmitage5803]

Reaper second option is bugged. You get the cooldown reduction as well.

[@Yeezus04]

Is this the same build as the last one you made but updated cause I’ve been waiting for you to post an update on the paragon board

[@chrisashton4924]

I am following this build, currently level 95 but i cant consume the corpse?

[@onursysl]

Guyz guyz! Have a serious question which aspect would you give up, if you had a shaco?

[@jamesgiraldo5101]

Man, this build slaps, I'm cleaning NM 55 at lvl 100. I almost got the gear looking similar to yours. The burst damage is crazy high.

[@faatman42]

You can easily be clearing 90+ with this build half made. Level 88 and I'm capable of barely clearing 100nm...

[@reyrodriguez8055]

Great Video! can you please explain how the Summoning Damage works? Is it giving extra damage to all my minions or only summoning spells. If spells, which ones. I cant figure it out so confused :(

[@reyrodriguez8055]

I meant Summoning Damage Temper

[@potatoosrus6193]

@@reyrodriguez8055 i think it only buffs the golem slam and not base damage

[@BrutteGaming]

It buffs the base dmg for all summoned minion, golem included. It also increases the damage and buffs from using the ability while the minions are summoned, golem slams and the buffs from raise dead’s priest’s buffs.

[@BrutteGaming]

Side note: a lot of people don’t understand this so are simple stacking golem dmg instead. Wasting tremendous dmg over all and Pitt/ Boss clearing potential.

[@robertrees7725]

Just a heads up, but the grasping veins aspect is not currently working as described so you do not get the crit/crit damage bonus. You'd be better off with a different aspect in that slot until it is fixed.

[@miketokles9451]

Apparently according to rax, the second skll for reapers or mages actually includes the first skill as well, ots a bug right now that devs may or may not fix right away

Is Kalans edict passive broken? The attack speed does not show up in my character toolkit, and I also don't notice a difference when I equips the passive.

[@j.c.3906]

So is shadow minionnecro just better than minion

[@jacobgreer1106]

This build absolutely slaps!

[@simeonlp]

I've been using your previous leveling build with Decompose and it made the gameplay so much more fun, I'll change to this updated version when i reach lvl 100 i reckon

[@steveroberts7373]

Same here and just plowing through stuff. Just soloed Duriel at lvl80 with zero issue. Living this build.

[@RedneckSith]

Decompose is better for leveling IMO because this one has no essence regen. Plus I prefer to do at least some damage myself.

[@PerryVenkman]

I don't understand how this build uses 7 skills when there are only 6 active skill slots. On PS5, I've got 1) raise skeleton, 2) golem, 3) decripify, 4) corpse tendrils, 5) decompose and 6) army of the dead. But I can't have blight as well. Is there a trick to have more than 6 skills active?

[@Setzer777]

You don't use Decompose. You need to put 2 points somewhere in order to progress the skill tree. Just swap out Decompose for Blight.

[@hallowas1457]

What uniques or uber uniques can i use on this build?

[@legopicklesnake]

no temerity, sac, or mendeln?

[@ravfan52]

Im running out of mana to quick on this build. Cant use blight to proc the extra damage

[@sheen-4509]

I might be dumb but when I started going through my paragon my control glyph is not 40/40?

[@matthewkresek8708]

How did you get 550 dex without the grandfather?

[@smokyposeiden]

How do you feel about the unique ring of sacrilegious for season 4? Worth or not worth it with tempering being a thing?

[@KatCat18]

Only if you running minions + corpse explosion or infinimist/blight other then that there is no really use for it

[@EternalGaze8]

It’s fun up until you get to really high end stuff. You’re sacrificing about 20 percent total damage which is a lot in the end game.

[@BrutteGaming]

This ring is useless! I hate seeing people waste their time using it. It makes the user lazy and you aren’t stacking damage with it. Just drop it and take advantage of all the tempering you can do!

[@Bwern]

Your videos are pretty good but what the actual f*ck are those thumbnails? Makes me not want to click on the video at all

[@OriginalBaconPancakes]

Newb question. Where are those massive multipliers coming from? My golem mastery doesn't give me multiplier, just straight percentage

[@Thatstoomanybeans]

If you look at the percentages in game you will either see a [+] or a [x] next to it(i believe you have to also turn on the advanced tooltip options in the gameplay option screen) and that will tell you if the percentage is actually additive [+] or a multiplier [x]

[@discodiffusioner]

One thing that make will make or break this build is CRITICAL STRIKE DAMAGE being around 1000%. This isn't mentioned in your build link. I followed it very closely and the damage output is crap. Why? Because my critical strike damage is only 300%. I put critical strike chance and attack speed on all my slots that you told us to, but your video shows you have critical strike damage there instead...... I can barely do NM 50 and Pit 25 with this build as linked.

[@leivendil8824]

Are there other uniqes thay are good for the build other than the weapon? I found a unique ring that casts tendrils every one seconds, im not sure if its helping me or if im hust too lazy to hit the button myself.

[@charlesmaclellan8124]

I'm currently using that as well, but may swap it out for the Medelin ring that gives the Skeletons explosive damage every 6 hits. Just hit 100 Sunday with my own build, but ill be swapping to Blight ASAP.

[@BrutteGaming]

The ring is useless! I hate seeing people use this ring bc it makes them lazy and they aren’t stacking their damage to get the max amount they could from the build. Take advantage of all the temping available this season to drastically increase your build. Drop it!

[@TB_SnEaKy]

I didn't know you can temper something with more than one trait !?!?!

[@_HungryGaming]

Ancestral can do 2, sacred can only do 1

[@TB_SnEaKy]

@_HungryGaming wowzers, I can boost my power even more now. I run a very similar build to this, and it slaps . Super pumped to add the other temper. I am level 67 I think and tier 4 helltide is a breeze when clearing adds. Though, the helltide boss is still powerful. One other person there and we can duo that flying whore no problem.
