ASCENDANCY

Occultist doesn’t provide a lot of free options. I will list them all and describe their perks but, in my opinion, you should not deviate from the recommended nodes.

MY PREFERRED SET-UP

The ascendancy nodes are listed in order of importance and tied to the way you need to travel to access them.

  1. Void Beacon
  2. Withering Presence
  3. Profane Bloom
  4. Unholy Authority

Void Beacon

Void Beacon stops enemies’ life regeneration and lowers their chaos resistance, increasing our damage output.

Withering Presence

Withering Presence is crucial as it not only increases our chaos resistance but also gives us more chaos damage and slows nearby enemies down.

Profane Bloom

Profane Bloom is the bread and butter for how our clearing will work with the build by allowing us to create some juicy explosions out of packs of enemies as we speed clear the maps!

Unholy Authority

Unholy Authority allows us to apply another curse & makes us able to curse hexproof enemies!

BANDITS

As with most summoner builds, you will kill all of the bandits, as they provide no significant gains worthy of sacrificing the skill points.

PANTHEON POWERS

As in most builds, Pantheon selection comes down to a matter of personal taste. I love adding the upgraded Arakaali Major God to reduce DoT damage taken.

I tend to lean towards the Shakari Minor God pantheon to mitigate Chaos Damage as it is a resistance very few builds bother to consider.
