[3.10] Gryph's Volatile Dead Necromancer || Fun, Medium Budget, Tanky, Millions of DPS
" Thank you very much for the quick response and for the guide! I tried building the non-crit version https://pastebin.com/YT11fARs but i'm nowhere near the million dps :-s For the time being, untill you rewrite the guide, is the "current PoB" section up to date? can i pursue that fom my current build? |

" You can follow the tree in that PoB link. Just ignore minion instability (where I was taking Glancing Blows from lethal pride). I highly recommend switching to the crit version as it really is at least 2-3x the damage, which is quite noticeable. |

Finished updating the guide. Now covers primarily Cast While Channeling+Cyclone
Things still to do: Add a tree progression for leveling Going to clean up the original guide into a more condensed version pertaining to self cast and include it in my reserved post. Thanks to everyone following the build and playing it even as I make drastic changes to it. :) |

Just came to say that I finally got the build running and it has been very fun.
Decided to put a little spin on it and went Disintegrator + Kaom's Heart (crafted rares are expensive) This is really quite a flexible build! Guild #YoloSwag <SWAG>

Hey man, this build seems so much fun. But I am currently struggling leveling. Any advice?
|
|
" Put spell cascade on desecrate and use Spell Cascade with Volatile Dead also use volatile dead instead of DD. :) Combustion and Ele Focus don't mesh well together, so drop Ele focus (keep leveling the gem though) and put in Spell cascade. |
|
" Oh yes; ) Thank you dude Keep up the good work:) |

" So this is where i've ended up with after a week of shopping and tweaking from your advice. Things are a LOT smoother now.. Ive got 5200ES and 4400 life, DPS is plentiful even without herald of ash, ive just killed tier 15 Elder and about to take on Shaper and Uber Elder after that. Delving down at depth 200ish is easy as pie currently. LOVE this build.. So tanky and so smooth and ssoo much fun! I started the league with your Vortex/Cold Snap trickster and moved to this after i got to a point where i needed to invest serious currency to progress the trickster and this is SSOO much smoother and tankier.. I guess my last 1/3 of the league will be moving this build into the crit based tree and trying to min-max it a lot more... thanks heaps for the guide mate.. |

" Very nice with the progress! I'm currently playing around in HC with this right now. Still in the acts so I can't really give any feedback yet, but it should be fun dying to lag. XD One thing you can do when you switch to the crit tree is to Get a Cast While Channeling Supported Staff and take Cyclone+CWC for a spin. This is ultimately where I've landed on the build for end game as the mobility is very hard to beat. Going to (hopefully) test this with the HC character I'm leveling to see how she does on a modest budget. I've already updated the guide away from the self cast version, though I plan to put a condensed "mini-guide" for it in the reserved post. more or less to avoid repeating myself too much as the differences between the two are minimal. |

" Hello! So i've made the switch (https://pastebin.com/zbSiQqBd), but it felt really clunky. I think that my cyclone doesn't do enough damage to me, or i don't have enough mana cost for the VD. I have the clarity watcher's eye with 19% dmg gained as mana, but still only lasts me just a couple of spins. So i've gotten a mana flask - now there's no problem! xD But regarding damage, any tips on how to get higher dps? My PoB shows a bit over 100k L.E.: oh, and the AG has the budget gear Last edited by MaDLy00#3113 on Oct 24, 2019, 10:21:01 AM
