[3.10] Gryph's Volatile Dead Necromancer || Fun, Medium Budget, Tanky, Millions of DPS
" I have thought about it extensively, yes. Spirit Offering doesn't work *at all* with CI and so you need to make up tons of recovery as well as find room for more ES...which you lose a lot of when you can't use Spirit Offering or chest craft with 10% of max life as extra ES. What you *can* do is be reliant on the ES on hit Watcher's Eye and stack some regen+ES Recovery Rate/abuse Wicked Ward. Low life is a lot more plausible as you still gain the benefits of Spirit Offering. In either case, getting enough ES is going to be a real challenge. I prefer pure ES builds over life and if I thought there was a way to make this LL/CI without losing too much I would do it. We get so much from a rare chest that LL becomes a lot less appealing. Offering Effect and 10% of max life as extra ES bench craft are both incredible stats that give close to 1500 ES boost by themselves. Combine that with Spell Crit and Shavs+Pain Attunement kinda pales in comparison, IMO. What WOULD make me consider a swap is something like an ES on Hit Discipline+Clarity Extra ES Watcher's Eye...but you know, I don't have a mirror laying around and I could still just use it on the Hybrid version. If Chaos damage is your boogeyman, consider using Presence of Chayula anyways. 60% Chaos Res and a big eHP boost make this a very reasonable amulet to use even on a hybrid build. |

Hi, Is it worth it to pay many ex to buy the jewel with corrupt blood? I don't know if this debuff is that bad...
Thanks |

" You can probably get an okay rare with this implicit for much cheaper. Eventually you will want it on a good jewel though (IE: Leap) |

@gryph:
Did u try headhunter? im currently lvl 99 and want to push 100. im thinking about using headhunter (no solistice vigil or inspired learning) for mapping. What do u think about that? or will i get mana problems? never used a headhunter before. | |
" You will have mana problems for sure. This is not a HH build. Alas. |

Ok, guess I'll invest my currency in a +3 fire/CWC staff. If there were any on the market.

This is a truly epic build!
I'm a boomer casual, but I'm having lots of fun! One thing that bothers me is that when I increase my AS, I start to kill myself too fast while channeling :( I can't even take the Corpse Pact (drained do death). What do I do? Sitting at 4.4k life and 3k ES, while fully Spirit Offered (?). Any help would be appreciated. |

" make your character profile public and I can take a peek. :P |
|
" Done and thanks! Is it because my unearth and GMO are not linked with CWDT in the staff? I think I'm exploding 5 corpses for the Spirit Offering most of the time though. Last edited by BlixiBargeld on Jan 31, 2020, 4:11:19 PM

" Easiest thing to do is get a chest with Increased Effect of Offerings. This will boost your recovery by quite a lot. Some phys mitigation will also help. Charging Offensive Anoint gives 3 Endurance charges at all times and that provides 12% mitigation. Soul of Gruthkul gives 5% as well. |
