Build Guide

This is an alternate pet build is for those missing the Jesseth's set and Circle of Nailuj's Evol ring and still packs some serious dmg and is fun to play.


PLAY-STYLE:

Target and spam Bone Spikes under enemies to keep Essence up
Target and spam Skeletal Mage around or near targets to add ranged minions to get dmg reduction
Activate Bone Armor to get the 2ndry skill dmg buff
Target and activate Command Skeleton to enable Frenzy attacks
Target and activate Command Golem to enable its decayed attack
Target and activate Army of the Dead to group and on elites

OPTIONS:

When Circle of Nailuj's Evol ring drops, replace RoRG with it in cube, replace Tasker for Rathma gloves (More Mages vs Pet AS trade-off)
Boon Gem + Goldwrap belt combo can be used for normal rifting as well
