Endgame PoB & Passive Skill Tree

All my guides use Path of Building. We have a simple guide for you that shows how to import my build into Path of Building. You can find the guide here.

You can find the low and medium budgets here: https://pobb.in/O3GF9H3Zqxt5

The high budget will be in its own separate guide.

Leveling Progression

Necromancer leveling Guide.

As Dark Pact can be a bit clunky early, I would suggest you follow this guide for levelling and swap when you finish the campaign.

Endgame Gem Links

6-Link Dark Pact

Since we benefit vastly from chaining our Dark Pact between our skeletons, to hit single target bosses with multiple chains, these links are the best, in this order:

4-Link Skeletons

Our priority with this build is to increase the HP of our skeletons as well as make sure they are fast when moving from enemy to enemy. We also would prefer to automate the application of Wither via our skeletons’ melee hits. The best path to achieving this is as follows:

Summon Skeletons – Ideally Vaal Summon Skeletons. A level 21 Vaal is better than a 20/20. 21 is obviously preferable.
Minion Life Support
Feeding Frenzy Support
Withering Touch Support

3-Link Trigger

This setup is best used with a bench-crafted weapon for the modifier “Trigger socketed spells when you use a skill.” This is to automate the Bone Offering buff we get to reach the max block cap. We also have Convocation in here on the trigger to effortlessly keep our utility minions safe. If you do not have a trigger craft available, you will have to self-cast the Bone Offering to keep the buff up until you get the craft.
