[BSC 2.5] 9 Aura 4 Curse Necro Support Lvl 27 Anger and Wrath Shaper Uber Atziri EZ Mode

Hello!
To make you motiveted to play or get a friend to play this build:
Spoiler



This is part of a two part guide for a necromancer and assassin two player setup. While this necromancer is designed for supporting this assassin build, it can easily be modified to support a variety of builds. If you have a friend that you regularly play with, following these guides will allow you to progress through all budgets from league start to wrecking all content in seconds.

This necromancer has two advantages to the classic 12 aura auramancer.
-First, it is defensively different. This is due to curses and the use of a hubris circlet.
-Second, it boosts damage substantially more to attack builds and enemies that live long enough for curses to matter. This is due to max curse effectiveness with four curses, elemental equilibrium, and up to level 27 Anger and Wrath.

The disadvantage is three less auras which leads to less attack and cast speed, less increased damage and actually losing vitality, hatred and determination. It is also much more expensive to get to the end stage of gearing.

It is still very early in the league and I got a few different ideas to improve but will need time and currency to test. Work in progress :)

Part 1: Leveling and Farming Gear
Spoiler
To really make good use of this build you need three things:
You do not need a 6 link, or a rolled hubris (just any hubris with Anger or Wrath mana reservation) or a +1 Prism Guardian. If you have these three base things and are leveling with friends you can go support all the way. Otherwise I suggest leveling as Summon Raging Spirit.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Look for life and es on gear, besides resistances. Use a mana flask for mana. Get first a five or six link 2h mace, sword, or axe (or a staff but they tend to be expensive) and use Shrieking Essence of Rage for SRS. I didnt try Shaper or Uber Atziri but everything else is doable on less than 2 exalts depending on gem levels solo but can be a struggle. For more insight on SRS look up other guides because I feel you should not have to spend much time in this part of the guide, especially since some wont need to farm. Remember that the goal is to farm a Shavronne's Wrapping and not gear an SRS character ^^
Alpha's Howl is a notable unique. Place Hatred, Wrath, Anger and Generosity for group play or replace Anger with Haste for solo.

Part 2: Respeccing Auramancer

Step 1
The jewel sockets are for

It may also be needed to grab the dexterity nodes between witch and templar and witch and shadow.
Step 2
Use
as you get more links on Shavronne's Wrappings to add more curses.
Step 3
Other jewel sockets can be grabbed for energy shield %, resistances and dexterity. This is especially useful when you use

Step 4
For when you get

The last step is getting +1 curse corruption on Presence of Chayula to get an unset ring with enough cold resistance to switch Purity of Ice to Envy on United in Dream.

Links and example gear.
