This build revolves around the Rathma and the Jesseth Sets to give you maximum damage using primarily the pets and minions available to you such as the skeletal army and Skeletal Mages and uses every set bonus in one capacity or another. The non set items such as the Reapers wraps and The Witching Hour and Krysbin's Sentence all have one use or another that helps maximize the potential of the skills used in this build. Primary Stats should be Intellect, Vitality (though not a high priority), Critical Damage % and Chance % and sockets on all the jewelry and weapon. This build is not the greatest for high Greater Rift pushes but works great for fast efficient solo speed 60's-70's for the lower end gear and potentially up to 80's-90's with the most optimized and augmented gear and a support class with you.
