Build Guide
Second character on the low life Necromancer, that uses regeneration shield of Molten Wildebest gem as life and the Dead Bargain to prevent regenerating life. Got most of my equipmente with the right afixes got to T76. But the limit of the build will be probable in T80 to T85.
Strategies
Idea of the build is still the same so many of the texts here are the same as my previous build. The main difference is that this build function more like the lazystrom build with the legendary gem pain enhancer. Where the low life plus + Shi Mizu's Haori + inarius bonestrom make an insane combo: 100% crit + automatic super bleed+ super attack speed. Also my initial thought about the dead aura (Dead Bargain) was wrong, my damage is more in the 500 M with the inarius buff (I'm still unsure, but i thing the crit multiplier is being applied).
Defense
Same as before the Molten Wildebest gem+ Dead Bargain pants+ Lornelle Sun ring+ high life regen is extremity powerful. And if you a willing to use the Dayte binging and a shield.... you can become unkilleble. But not not knowing how much shield you have in the go is the a big drawback.
And same as before, the build hates all restoration affixes but life regen. So take them all out if needed. Only life on kill on one of the gears, or a 1 to 5
point in the paragon hit on life to fill just a little your life poll for life consuming skills. Also ditch out as may vitality affixes sis they help very little the build.
Damage
For trash mobs the 100 crit bleeding bonestrom + blind will do the trick for Elites and Rares Corpse Lance kills the easy and rift guardians the Land of the Dead + corpse lance make them an easy kill.
Play style
Same text as before:
One of the main problems of a low life build, is actually getting to low life without dying. Even that the Molten Wildebest gem + Dead Bargain pants combo can be used by other characters, only the necromancer has heath consuming skills to lower the life poll intentionally.
The first thing I do is the Nun-lock trick to activate Corpse Lance non stop. With the bold rune activated as long that there is a corpse I now my life will go to 2% or lower. Second i can use land of the dead to intentionally. get to low life with corpse lance.
Using bone armor can be tricky, since you need 20% heath it can lower your defense significantly. Normally, I use the red orbs, on end of a battle and
use bone armor form a safe distance, on the heat of battle you also can get a red orb and you born armor for the high damage. You can also you use heath potion to get 60% and some corpse to lower the life fast.
The real challenge is to deal with situation that heals you in unwanted situations. Like killing an elite that drops 5 red orb near you or gaining a level, in
this 2 situations you may be in middle of enemies and you will lose great part of your defense and damage. If land of the dead is out of rotation its a guarantee rip.
Ideas
I believe the build can be made with the pestilence set too. I tried it but i didn't have much success. Using this build to gear up a good pestilence gear for the build. Since trying to get as many CDR on gear can maybe make it viable.
Also I'm going to try a build with Simulacrum with the Haunted Visions amulet. But its super tricky, senses ones you cant pay the 5% life price the clone dies...
