The Absolution Necromancer works very well for end-game bossing, achieving significant single target damage on lower budgets and smoothly scaling to hilariously high damage numbers because of Doryani's Prototype Doryani's Prototype packing negative lightning resistance which we replace with using Determination to stack armor. However, PoB happens to be heavily miscalculating the steps they’re doing. A rough ball-park calculation landed in it being able to achieve around 1 billion sDPS inside a mirror tier gear set-up. This could result in the build having 0 defensive layers which this informative guide is concentrating on to allow for an even gaming experience whilst still having the ability to drop bosses down mega fast.

Since this build includes a very niche playstyle, I would highly recommend watching the recording linked below to ascertain if it’s something you’d find enjoyable to experience.

Build Overview

In this, I will outline the professionals, cons, and general playstyle. This will permit you to determine if this the right build is perfect for you!

Pros

+ League Starter – The build packs a huge punch even without the Doryani Prototype which makes it more than functional in SSF in addition to a league-starter build!

+ Bosser – The damage output this build is capable of even in low quality is completely absurd.

+ Unique Play Style – You will summon Absolution sentinels which will cast the same ability accustomed to summon them however with only having the ability to reach 3 sentinels the play style must adjust knowing that.

Cons– Unique Play Style – Due to the nature of the build’s playstyle, it's a build that not everyone will discover enjoyable. I highly recommend watching the gameplay video before beginning this build.

Special Ramp-up – Absolution is summoned by either getting the target killed after being hit through the spell or using a 25% chance on hit vs rare or unique targets makes this build only summon the sentinels vs end-game bosses every 4th hit by average. This problem can present a scenario with using a bad streak of not summoning any sentinels for some seconds before your damage takes over and destroys the boss(es).

Playstyle

The playstyle relies on summoning your Absolution sentinels by either hitting a rare/unique enemy or using a normal or magic enemy to die either to or immediately after being hit by Absolution. We also utilize a very specific set-up for utility minions layering defensive gains towards the build in addition to helping you start the development when you first enter a roadmap.

Damage Scaling And Defensive Layers

Minion damage may be the bread & butter for the damage output because it all originates from our Sentinels destroying our enemies. Defensive layers are available in the form of life, high block & recovery of life whenever you block. You possess the option of investing more directly into defense at the cost of offense if you think the need for it.
