[3.25] Animate Ephemeral Edge Necromancer
" This build can achieve shock immune with reduced % shock on flask/jewels/tattoos and freeze + 50% chill immune with pantheon. My problem with shock from my animate weapon is that it's like 10% worse on bosses and also feels really inconsistent on mobs; that combined with the fact that awakened elemental focus is only beaten by awakened multistrike, which I can't afford, makes me reluctantly keep skitterbots on. However, during my time deep delving, I found out that Determination (and armour) is actually doing very little on this build! As you can see on my character on ninja, I got rid of determination and pathed to Ghost Reaver with the reservation points saved so that I can finally use Bone Barrier. However, even with determination gone, I'll still be hesitant to run purity of elements. It'll cost an extra socket, which forced this build to keep using 2 unset rings, which will be significantly worse than a bone ring that can be reflected; and said bone ring will cap minion resistances anyway. ailment immune could be nice especially on minions, but I don't think that'll worth the cost of ~3 nodes on reservation efficiency. I don't have any educated opinion on spirit offering vs. flesh offering other than that pob says spirit is better. But I am prepared to switch to bone offering when I eventually delve to a depth when AW will have trouble surviving! I made several attempts to make this build CI so I can use my mageblood, but it's really just not worth it. Doing so will either lose us 1-2 auras or require too much investment on reservation efficiency. This build can't run any other timeless jewels so the opportunity cost for Traitor is already really small. I even tried to make it work with recombined "chaos damage doesn't bypass while not low life", but no. I'm like 97% sure that with >20div low life is just better. However, I'll definitely try to league starting CI in private leagues and maybe SSF in the next 3 months! Before this league the lake of twilight regalia forces this build to use Ghostwrithe, which can't be used with CI. If CI can work that will be the biggest weakness of league starting this build gone! YES! I'm currently using darkness enthroned! Before I didn't realize that 25% quality coruscating elixir can sustain itself without any flask mods on belt. It is indeed straight up better than crystal belt with enough currency. |

I'm definitely open to try this in SSF as CI when I have the time.
What would be your plan to get ephemerals, wolfs shadow card? Could you do something like rebuke of the vaal shenanigans before ephemerals? |

" For true SSF I'll just go for 2h energy blade for easy 6-link until I find ephemeral edge. Last league I never found one in before I quit, but EB is performing fine. |

" Of course, didn't think of that! Will probably try it out when I get bored of my hiero. Read on reddit that you can turn in wolfs shadow on a character between 40-46 (?) and ancient orb it, it only rolls between 3 swords and one of them is ephemerals, that could be something.

I've now found 3 EE so I'm lvling a necro, which gem would you remove for a 6-link without the vow?
Do you have a tree for going CI by any chance? I do not have the timeless jewel for the traitor. |
