[2.5] Summon Raging Inferno ( 6L flame golems) - atziri 5L - 5 curse support!
|
Welcome!
 This is a build for the witch - Necromancer- and uses FLAME GOLEM as the main skill. Updated for 2.5!! (if you liked the build before, well be prepared for LUDACHRIS damage) Mandatory items: Ideally, the new Primordial Jewels will significantly augment the build. Check out the sample vid: (This is before the golem buff in 2.5) https://youtu.be/Raw7Xy_qwDU #################################################################### This build can be fairly cheap - requires a 5L and heretic's Veil #################################################################### How it works: -6L flame golem with appropriate talents and gear does insane damage, which is supplemented by curses and offerings, and high burn damage. (im currently using a 5L in the videos) -Defensively, the build has about 4-5k life. 75% block chance can be achieved with rumi's + bone offering, thus giving the build "aegis". We gain hp back by blocking and through potions. -Can go either Hybrid ES/life or MoM EB -MoM redirects 30% of the damage to a large energy shield pool (Eldritch Battery) which we also use to cast spells. Life regen applies to ES using Zealot's Oath. 2.0 version - 2.5 changes : pure damage. Flame golem receives 140% increased base damage, and with the new jewels, we can summon up to 2 more (total of 5!!!!) Playstyle

Remember cast when drinking? Well, this is kill while walking the dogs. once your golems are up, its just a matter of casting the occasional offering spell, Abyssal cry, and ball lightning. Ball lightning is used to apply elemental equilibrium. If the golems are in a bad position, use convocation to bring them to you. If the map feels easy, use flesh offering for faster clear speed! Or, if you are one of those people who walks their dog while riding a bicycle, you can just apply swift potion and run to the end of the map. Screw using skills. Leveling Section
Spoiler
Items that are exceptionally good for leveling: -Goldrim -Tabula Rasa -Sidhebreath -Ashcaller -reverberation Rod (easy 4l with +1 skills) -armor/energy shield 4L items -Rings/amulets with dex/ strength -helmet with +1/+2 to socketed minion gems Gems to pickup when you can:
Spoiler
Summon Raging Spirit x 2 - for leveling at earlier levels Clarity x 2 (keep a level 1 clarity in your stash for later use. You can level the oter clarity for early leveling) Spell totem (earlier leveling) Controlled destruction Greater Multiple Projectiles Spell Echo Flame golem x 5 (level as many as possible - vaal them at level 20 to get level 21) Flamability Elemental Weakness Assassins Mark Temporal Chains Bone Offering Flesh Offering 1-30 Level 28 Skill tree is quite linear, grab life nodes and pickup minion nodes. Note that I do not get the jewel off the start, but later on spend a few respec points to change the pathing very slightly. To level, you will be using Summon raging spirit and zombies. Work towards a 4l with the following gems: 4l SRS - added fire/ melee physical? - minion damage - melee splash Zombies do not need any support gems. At level 8, you can make a spell totem in ADDITION to your self cast SRS. SRS - Spell totem - minion damage - melee splash. If you find a level 1 clarity while leveling, KEEP it and dont level it. You will need it later. You will also want to level Bone offering. *try to get rings/amulet with attributes that you need (str/dex). * Level 30-40 Level 40 Pick up a ball lightning gem from act 3 clarissa. Use this to proc Elemental Equilibrium (-50 fire resist). Golems do NOT trigger EE. Look for a +1 or +2 minion level helm for your SRS. At 34, you can purchase flame golem in act 4. Buy 4-5 and level the extras in your offhand (you will vaal them at level 20). you can use blasphemy with flamability to add some damage. Ascendancy skill chosen: Mistress of Sacrifice Level 40+ Skill tree At level 41, you can use 2 x clayshaper. Once you have clayshapers, its time to switch your gems up. Put the flame golem in a 4l helm with +1 or better to minion gems. You can either keep self casting SRS, or use the spell totem for them. Flame golem - Greater Multiple Projectiles - minion damage - spell echo. Make SURE you have a 4l, and these exact gems! They will melt everything! Maintain gear with dex/str/life/resists and focus on life nodes on the tree. You wont need to focus on ES until much later (70+? I'm not there yet though) Ascendancy Skill chosen: Commander of Darkness - note that this was because my resists were low. Blasphemy does NOT count for this, so you will have to run a level 1 clarity aura (NO HIGHER) Example Gear:
Spoiler
Late game: There are really two main choices to make for late game. 1) use the MoM EB setup to run 5 curses and be semi support (but you will be limited to about 6k eHP) 2) Go hybrid - which means you may have to drop one or two curses. Hybrid allows for massive HP - with decent gear you can achieve 4k+hp and 6-7k es. If you plan to farm end-game content (shaper/guardians) - Hybrid is the better choice. My Character: 5 curses
Spoiler
Animate Guardian (AG) uses Dying breath, Bringer of rain, and Zanhdethus' Cassock. Additional curses: -Assassins mark - 9% additional crit chance, and each powercharge grants the golem 200% crit chance. At max charges, thats close to 40% crit chance. -Projectile Weakness - More damage multiplier for golems. -Ele Weakness -flamability -Temp chains Gem Links:
Spoiler
6L Flame golem - GMP - controlled destruction/empower - spell echo - minion damage - conc effect 4L heretic - TC - Ele weakness - proj weakness - flamability 4L Ball lightning - CoH - assassins mark - GMP 4L faster attacks - leap slam - animate guardian - fortify 3L desecrate - blood magic - level 1 clarity 3L - bone offering - convocation - increased duration. Can replace duration with empower Skill Tree
Spoiler
Level 93 MoM EE EB ZO 6 jewels Summon Raging Inferno Bandits: 40HP - skill point - skill point Ascendancy Points: Mistress of Sacrifice Spirit Eater Commander of Darkness (use a level 1 clarity with blood magic) Beacon of Corruption Jewels
Spoiler
look for minion damage and life. Stats are also usefull - specifically dex for gear. Primordial Harmony Primordial Might The Anima Stone Stats:
Spoiler
4-5K hp 1.8-3k ES 5% es regen 75%/ around 50% spell block with rumis + bone offering 350% increased minion damage (which also applies to ignite) 100% mana reserved for 4 curse auras 30% increased curse effectiveness from tree. 2-hand staff variant:
Spoiler
by using 3 primordial jewels and the Anima stone, we can forgo the need for clayshaper and still run 3 golems. + Using a 6L +3 fire staff, we can get a level 28 flame golem. + Curse on hit can be placed in the 6l chest to apply 3 curses. (got the idea from SteKrz) + That means we only reserve 50-60% of mana with blasphemy - can either use an aura, or drop EB + By freeing up mana reserve, Heretics veil can be replaced with a high es/life/resist helm. ******************* + instead of doing a 6l CoH setup, you could also do a 6L SRS setup in addition to the golems.

December 3, 2016 - The new armor - Skin of the Loyal can be the best in game slot for the build. A vaaled +1 skill gems one could provide a level 28 flame golem!!! March 22, 2016 - 6L setup is now optimized. Flame golem - faster projectiles - GMP - min dmg - empower - spell echo. This setup was tested and appears superior to other gem variations. March 21 -2016 - gained a new amulet with +1 curses, farming chroms then I will use windscream boots for another +1 curses. There have been some very suggestions that may influence the build. For now, the version I have currently posted is cheap, does high damage, and has excellent defensive capabilities. I would recommend the build as is. However, if you can afford better gear, then thats when I would be good to start adding in additional curses with CoH, and possibly dropping unwavering stance if you are comfortable with that. -Have not tested controlled destruction instead of empower 3 -Spell echo is very powerful, better than chance to ignite. -Looking to get a +1 curse amulet, then running a 4th curse (assassins mark) to partially make up for removing chance to ignite gem. -5th curse - projectile weakness To see my other builds, look here: Main characters: Deep_water - AnomaIy - Artica Build guides: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1602863 Last edited by DreamScythe on Dec 10, 2016, 3:45:09 PM Last bumped on Mar 12, 2017, 3:19:39 PM

Probably will try this build just for lulz, seems nice.
Any plans on using that brand new '+1 to maximum number of Golems' unique mace in 2.2? Like having 3 golems at the same time instead of buffing just one golem using +3 staff? Last edited by panda285 on Mar 3, 2016, 3:27:52 AM

I believe I will be playing this as the necromancer, and I will get 5 of the small 15% minion dmg nodes + spirit eater.
I may consider Occultist if vile bastion works when minions kill enemies. -Ill upload a vid once I acquire 2 shapers Main characters: Deep_water - AnomaIy - Artica Build guides: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1602863 Last edited by DreamScythe on Mar 4, 2016, 4:23:12 AM

other build that i need to try
no queen rules forever, my daughter

well to be perfectly fair it's a lvl23 golem. And the required items... Not even remotely thinkable in league. Tho with ascendancy golem node why not(if it works).

this build wont win you any races, but it can be done on new league, you just wont have a shavs ring. I have run several maps without shavs ring. a level 3 empower is easy to obtain, and flame golem is very cheap to buy leveled ( i bought one last in talisman for like 10 chaos fully leveled/quality).
Yes, you will eventually need at least a 5L shavs, but most of my current gear is easy to get. For reference, my character in Talisman used a 5L flame golem and 3 link SRS, and I leveled him casually to 86.

as an alternative for low life shavs you could also run EB/Mom/Zo. You would have to drop the dmg aura though..

" thats an excellent idea actually! for the new league its probably the best way to do it. Using Belly of the beast and a decent amount of jewels can net a decent hp pool. Ill try to include a skill tree and suggested items for a life version within the next couple days. Actually Geoffry's Sanctuary might also be a good choice as it gives life, es, resists, and saves a few points on the skill tree by granting zealots oath Heres a tentative skill tree for an EB life based version using only 3 curse auras: has 107% max life, 5.3% life regen, and 7 jewels. 7 jewels = can net easily another 40% + max life Belly of the beast is also another 30-40% max life, unless using Geoffry's Sacntuary, which saves us 2 points but grants substantial more es and a flat amount of life.
