Hello and ty for your content, i'm a SSF player and i plan to play necro poison animate weapon, melee version first and invest heavily in atlas breach nodes for Severed in sleep/united dream, skin of the lord and the surrender, in your opinion is this good plan?achievable? ty for your feedback (sorry for my bad english)

Thx Saphery as always. Just a question for ranged animate weapon. If you do a 100% Poison chance do you need also unholy might or can go for bone barrier + seven league step?

This is a chaos crit based not a poison version. Severed in Sleep is better than United in Dream for that and you also don't really scale the chance to poison outside of Dendrobate.

Concerning your BAMA - If you use a blink arrow of bombardment and a mirror arrow of prismatic clones you can get six (prismatic and bombardment do not share the same minion quant limit) quickly summoned minions. The prismatic clones, however, fire arrows directly which can make use of faster arrows/pierce/returning and similar supports that bombard cannot.

Do you advise following the medoum budget guide for your Stone Golem build from your TOTA guide once we have achieved the low budget setup?

Yeah, that's kind of the point. I have since added life based versions that outperform the es versions in terms of dmg and player survivability but are worse in terms of minion survivability and in terms of doing afk content. Kind of depends what you value most I guess.

After getting to the low budget setup for chaos animate weapon, should we reference your old POBs to push it further, like transitioning to CI and such. Thank you

The Life version is a bit more fragile against DoT based damage, especially in the high budget, compared to the ES based version. It has more damage and can opt out of some dmg (still comparable to the ES version) for even better survivability in the high budget. Which version you choose depends on your preferences. I would probably give the life version a try if I were to play the build again.

@@sapheryPoE thank you! I will give a try to both this league to see which is better, also in the pob for league start, you have SRS leveling through the campaign, that can freely be switched out for absolution I am assuming?

@@derekterranova4561 Yeah. I think it's a bit worse because the Necro doesn't have access to Added Fire Damage and Phys to Lightning Support before Act 3 which you want to use to scale the minion and the hit based damage at the same time. It should still be valid though, as someone who doesn't enjoy playing SRS I totally understand.

What're your thoughts on Carrion? Is stone golem just going to be a better version?

@sapheryPoE

Most likely. Carrion Golems have been hit hard last league and have yet to recover from that.

I looking for my 2nd Build (played Storm Burst Totem) And i loved the Animate Weapons and now with range sounds great. I wonder how tanky the Ranged Animate Weapon Build will be in the in Medium ES Setup. I only played glass canons. Will it possbile to do the 30 T17 Maps with it, for the Challenge?

i was planning to play coc AG necro for blight farming, but the new holy relic gem is so tempting...

@sapheryPoE

4 ай бұрын

No idea how good that will be early on. Probably best to avoid on league start.

Well, you totally miss the new transfigured summon holy relic, just look at that gem any minion build maker would see the OPness, you can do everything with 2 relics before and now you have 3, with no damage penalty just missing the regen part, which is not a big deal, necro can true block cap and minion leech, guardian is very tanky to begin with and has 20% hit mitigation, and scion is decent at everthing. Another thing good about this trans gem is, it's not mechanically different than the regular version, you can totally do the regular relic build, and only tranform when you got the gem, don't have to run labs dozens of times, and all the items needed is a dirt cheap helm.

Kind of hard to do at that level of investment because you're missing out on lvl 25 Envy which is the center point of most other chaos damage based builds. Feel free to post any cool chaos BaMa builds you come across though.

I think SRS suffered this league even more with 38% nerf. Still doable but less fun then before.
