Hello , thank you for this great build!
I was thinking using it but could it work for you for a MF issue ?
I need currencies to up some others characters =)

Now just tested removing the whole ascendancy branch. Has indeed brought down the trap duration to a lower time but not even remotely close to 0 with still using sunblast + the two jewels.

Edit: Oh nevermind, I may have looked at the wrong person but you indeed didn't take any increased duration at all. Yeah I can see that being tedious but most importantly wouldn't allow me to use Mistress of Sacrifice for the overpowered block chance. Now to find an easier way.. mh

Ya, the idea is simple, you cant use anything on you with increase duration as it affects both your traps and minions.

Unless you choose not to use instant trap trigger and go manual trap triggering by enemies, you have no choice.

There is no need for block chance as your minions expire within 3 seconds and they are not squishy at all. The minions can tank map bosses easily in their short lives while doing damage to their target.

Glad you liked it.

Of course you can run this as an MF build as you minions are doing all the work.

I am currently sitting at 132% Item Rarity and 0% Item Quantity. This is only with a few IIR gear.


You can easily use Sadima's Touch for IIQ or get more IIR on the boots and on the other ring. 200% IIQ is definitely obtainable to be a successful MF build.

At my current rate, I am completing Chaos and Regal (unidentified rares) recipes very often while mapping.

You might not be aware but the ascendancy node of witch necromancer mistress of sacrifice gives the full benefit of bone offering to yourself making a block-oriented char with little investment.

I am playing perandus hardcore, the capped block has made me able to survive multiple damage mods/boss/perandus and an even safer clear of hall of grandmasters bringing my run from 15 min to sub 8 minute by no longer cheesing with proximity shield revenants.

Survivability of the clones is never a concern as you just make more of them and have short duration.

As for the survivability of the player, the clones make very good meat shield and with 4.5k life, I have had zero deaths for the past few levels.

If you are talking about hardcore, I would definitely understand the need for block and even using Rearguard Quiver.

Starting off as a Witch provides very little benefits from what I can see.

Makes me want to try hall of grandmasters just to try out my build...

Tier 12 run will be next

I have Victario's Influence, but I need to change the gem set up to use it to it's full effect.

We need 6 links for the blink arrow and 6 links for the mirror arrow.


I am thinking of changing mirror arrow to 4 link setup and the remaining 2 sockets will be used for the auras.

What do you think. Any other suggestions?

I have my doubts about running 3 auras using Victario's Influence, most probably Hatred (along with Anger and Wrath) to get the most DPS out of the minions as possible.

Reason being that this build does not have much bow physical damage and Hatred scales of that unlike Wrath or Anger that gives flat elemental damage. Also, with Hatred, running Elemental Equilibrium would no longer work.

My current setup is with some cold damage on my ring which I use to apply Cold Damage (via Split Arrow + Curse on Hit + Chain + Ele Weakness) to proc Ele Equil on the targets to give them -50% Fire and Lightning resist that my minion deals a lot of.

I would think -50% to the 2 elements gives the minion a better DPS than giving them Hatred for a small damage boost and also losing potential 6 Link on mirror or blink arrow.

Ideally, both mirror and blink arrow should be at least 5 link and above. A +2 Minion Gem Level on helm wouldn't come close as it only gives a Level 20 Mirror/Blink arrow +12% damage instead of a support gem that can easily go beyond +40% damage.
