[3.18] Cheapbunny's Flask Drinking Critical Stone Golem Ascendant | Mother's Embrace
|
This build is heavily nerfed in 3.19, due to power/frenzy charge bonus change for minions according to balance manifesto. Not recommend to play this build in 3.19 as of now.
 Introduction This is the last build I made in Archnemesis league, since there is no balance change in 3.18, I decided to make a build guide for this. This build perform pretty well in both offense and defense. However, you will need to summon golems constantly (similar to summon skeletons), this playstyle might not be for everyone. The idea is to boost the golems dps via flask using Mother's Embrace belt unique mods, your minion will use your flask when summoned. With enough flask charge recovery nodes one the tree, it is possible to keep all the flasks effect up on 3 golems most of the time. I do not recommend less experienced player to league start this build, because it requires some transition in gear and passives skill tree from early game to late game. Also scion is generally harder to level in early acts due to lack of damage nodes around her starting passive tree location. Build Thought
Spoiler
The build idea starts with Mother's Embrace belt, I wanted to play a build using this belt. Doedre's Elixir is the first flask comes into my mind, 3 frenzy and 3 power charges provides a lot damage to minions, but with the chaos damage taken downside. Atziri's promise counter the downside from Doedre's Elixir effectively, it also provides decent damage boost These items scale minion critical chance further, which has good synergy with power charges granted by Doedre's Elixir. Why Stone Golems? Flask charges are limited and regenerate slowly overtime during boss fight, so I need a minion skill that has small maximum minion numbers allowed and can be summoned occasionally, which is golems. I chose stone golem because it has better single target dps. Why Ascendant? Flask + Golems = Pathfinder + Elementalist Videos

Leveling
Spoiler
This is my suggestion for leveling, you may do differently as you prefer. Early Acts, Level 1-50 (before Second Lab) Use Zombie and SRS to level. Grab as much minion damage passive nodes as possible. 50 points skill tree (POB code)

Above Level 50, transition into Stone Golems (After Second Lab) After second lab, and take "Golem Commander" on passive skill tree, you would have maximum 3 golems, you can start leveling with stone golems from this point. Your priority should be farming Anima Stone jewel and 3 other golem jewels for additional 2 golems. 80 points skill tree (POB code)

Yo I just found this build and I am in love with the concept. Have you considered srs/ what are your thoughts on it applied to this format? It got me curious since the belt seems reliant on resummoning, or would it be too much for the pots to handle
| |
" It think SRS could work to some extent, using unique helmet "Mark of the Red Covenant" to create small number powerful SRS. |
|
|
how do you want your animate guardian btw?
standard? because I dont know haha | |
" Checkout the Gem Link section, I listed down the item for Animate Guardian. It has no problem survive in normal Maven, but I think it might die in new uber contents. |
