Been doing V2 with shield. Having more fun with the larger life pool. Only level 91, all gems 19, and its destroying. Haven't done Uber Elder, but ran Shapers with V1 and V2 and it feels a lot better.
Gear and gem setup

Spoiler

I use temp chains and conductivity, blood magic for more frenzy charges, feeding frenzy swap with deathmark on 6L, keep conc effect in all the time, steelskin level 20.
Mostly budget build, self crafted wand, 1ex boots, 9ex for the chest (rip regal), 2ex for amulet, everything else under 20c.

No commander, resists are fine for me and minions. Plaguebringer and Bone Barrier. Bone Armour is more for me, but that will come in handy on UE I'm thinking.

Haven’t seen anyone post an MF setting or use pseudo-6L zombies as secondary damage source, so I’d like to share my current setting here. I’m lv 95 right now and chaining T16s with 60 IIQ, swap as many MF gears as possible while keep my resists capped (with +30% from the Bone Armor ascendency).

"

Also, I’m running zombies as my secondary damage source in my pseudo 6L helmet, they are doing great job and give a huge boost to my clear speed and dps. Have tried skeletons before but i have to stop and cast them so far less clear speed, and clear speed is all you want when MFing. I have 5400 hp and get one shot sometimes (about 1 in 10 maps) so if you want to push 100 don’t go MF :)

Just want to share and show how versatile Necromancer is. Hope you like it.

p.s.: dropped 4 exalts in the first 2 hours after switching to MF :D

I took a gamble on v2 of the build and was pleasantly surprised. I didn't really have many issues with survivability using v1 (5.5k HP, 600-ish ES), but I've been super impressed with the build overall to the point that I wanted to give v2 a whirl. The biggest issue I had with v2 was a significant lack of Dex after giving up the nodes on the way to Herbalism. Given that I was using 5-10c rings and amulets, a little regearing wasn't a huge problem, and I specced into a few +30 Dex nodes. I'll mess around more with optimal dex values later and try to spec out of those nodes and subsequently pick up more HP.

That issue aside, I felt like my DPS was just as good as before, but my survivability was enhanced significantly. I still play very defensively, but I don't find myself hovering over my pots knowing that I need to start spamming my instant heal. Given that I don't currently have a +1 spectre chest, a +3 minion gem helm, and I'm missing a few major life nodes, I can see some significant upgrades coming down the pipe for me that will boost the offensive and defensive potential of this build. I'm sold!

while running shield, is shifting 6 points for Necromantic aegis with victario's still suitable ? overall I like the added durability of this build. I'd love to see something like shield charge slotted in for mapping. Also I'm small brain so videos would be great too ! keep it up!

Solstice Vigil + Temporal Chains instead of the Curse on Hit Brand does sound like a very good idea for the v2.

@kayella
Early feedback on wand and shield v2 — considerably tankier than v1 for certain, one shots are now two or three shots, ripping thru T15 maps with ease even with nutty modifiers. Had a single death on an especially nutty T15 (conductivity/elemental weakness IIRC) while facetanking, and even then it was a two shot.

Uncertain about Blind support too, will do some A/B testing and see how it goes. Figuring out a way to fit in Temporal Chains + Solstice Vigil too.
