[3.10] Gryph's Volatile Dead Necromancer || Fun, Medium Budget, Tanky, Millions of DPS
" The build is excellent for delving. Especially with ES on hit source. Ball lightning spamming is an absolutely insane amount of recovery while delving. If you're doing darkness runs firestorm is actually quite good as well to keep a nice ES sustain on monsters that you leave behind. Might be worth testing for delve specifically. Of course you can also just zip through the zones and lay waste to everything on the way. |

" Yea, the firestorm + spell cascade is nice. Just "farmed" a t15 canyon with nothing but cwdt procs from mob damage. No spectres or AG. Everything died except the bosses, which ended up killing me once all the trash mobs died, lol. No room for convocation, without losing something else. Might not be needed for delving. Unsure yet.

" I like convocation for the constant source of regen to my minions as well as making sure they stick close to me while I am zooming away. I do not want to outrun my AG ever and lose the buffs. |

Trying out the build...got alittle bored with zombies...lol...Things seem to be going good so far...surprisingly strong build...however not sure if its been addressed but current pob seems to be dex starved..also as I have tried to import certain items into pob (aul's)..im coming up dex starved as well and I don't see any additional dex/all attributes on any of your current gear or tree also...

" Brutal Restraint Timeless Jewel (Akhara of Deshret) near Devotion will fix the DEX issue. But this is expensive. Before I get this jewel, I had 50 dex in my amulet. @Gryphenprey thanks for the build guide. I'm following this since the first version (self-cast) and once I switched to Cyclone It got sooo much fun. This is one of the funiest and strongest build I ever made. :) Last edited by fokolino on Nov 7, 2019, 4:57:54 AM

Cool....will look into it...

" As has been stated, I get most of my dexterity from my Brutal Restraint jewel. Prior to that, I got it on my jewelry. Thankfully we only need 100 dex for a level 21 Volatile Dead. |

" Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it. Your belt is really sweet! Start by adding a Spell Damage/Extra Chaos Damage roll on your staff. Otherwise, it's all little thing I think. I would probably start with a better Scold's Corruption (10% mana multiplier or Fire damage leech for example) or an enchanted one. Enfeeble/Ele Weakness on hit corruption on gloves T1 Life gain on hit from Spells on the ring(s) I don't think the ES on kill is of much use for us, so I might go for a multimodded Spell Crit Chest for more ES
Spoiler
Spell Crit multimod Flat ES ES% 10% of life as Extra ES Suffix of choice (Quality/Resists) Level 21 Raise Specter (3 specters) instead of Zombies. I use 2 Proximity Shield Heretical Guardians (A10 Desecrated Chambers) and 1 Ruins Hellion for his Rallying Cry from A8 Quay. The Rallying Cry is nice for a consistent taunt (not just when your minions hit monsters...as that really never happens) |

" Really appreciate your feedback! I already farmed the required Betrayal content to craft spell/chaos on the staff. Been corrupting gloves, 20 up to now, no luck yet :P Yep, i picked up the chest for 2ex, but still looking for a better one. Same goes for the Ring(s). Does the Mana Multiplier Corruption work on Auras? Has it always been like that? I seem to recall it didn't work in the past... but maybe I'm mistaken. I was contemplating between Spectres and Zombies... really never understood how that Spectre Gem works and how to summon high level spectres e.g. (especially specific ones :D) Thanks again! |
