GhazzyTV's Golem Necromancer Gear, Jewels & Flasks (PoE Secrets of the Atlas)

Summary – TL;DR

Cap your Elemental Resistances and get the attributes your gems require to make sure you can use them all. Most pieces should be Rare with Life and, of course, any lacking attributes/resistances. Modifiers which increase the level of your skeletons are most favorable, along with those increasing minion damage across the board.

Item Slot	Item Name	Rarity
Head	Life then Res/Attributes as needed in addition to level modifiers	Unique
Amulet	The Jinxed Juju	Rare
Chest	Life, res and/or Attributes	Rare
Gloves	Life then Res/Attributes as needed	Rare
Boots	Life & movement speed then Res/Attributes	Rare
Belt	Darkness Enthroned	Unique
Rings	Life then Res/Attributes as needed. Ideally these are Bone Ring in order to get minion modifiers	Rare
Weapon	Clayshaper	Unique
Weapon	Clayshaper	Unique

Armour Pieces

Many of the higher budget examples can either be purchased or crafted. When crafting, I would strongly suggest utilising Craft of Exile to determine the cheapest approach to crafting the desired items.

Since most items in this build are Rare, the main focus will be to have as much Life as possible and sort any attributes and resistances so we can reach the desired caps.

Helmet

The main focus is to get high life with any needed resistances and/or attributes. You also want to get a “+1-2 level of all minion skill gems” on this slot and use your bench-craft and put “+1 to maximum number of skeletons (and raised zombies)” craft, this craft can be found by unveiling helmets from the Betrayal league mechanic dropped items.

Modifier Priority List:
1. Life
2. +1-2 level of all minion skills
3. Elemental Resistances
4. Attributes if needed
5. Chaos resistance

Body Armour

We have no specific requirements of our chest. Just make sure it has armour of some kind, preferably high armour.

Life, Resistance and Attributes are all viable choices here. Get as much as you can.

Gloves

High life, attributes & resistances if needed, is the name of the game for most rare items in this build. However, you can use the “Fear” essences, such as Deafening Essence of Fear to craft extra minion damage gloves.

Modifier Priority List:
1. Life
2. Elemental Resistances
3. Attributes if needed
4. Essence craft increased minion damage (Fear Essence) – this is a luxury mod, do not prio this over resistance
5. Chaos resistance

Boots

Generic high life, movement speed pair of boots with any needed resistances or attributes!

Modifier Priority List:
1. Life
2. Movement speed
3. Elemental Resistances
4. Attributes if needed
5. Chaos resistance

Belt

You should consider using Darkness Enthroned with Ghastly Eye Jewel, providing Life and “#% minion damage when you’ve used a minion skill recently.” Alternately, you can use any rare belt with Life, resistances and/or attributes as needed. Having Ghastly Eye Jewel with minion cast speed is BIG for this build as the faster they start killing enemies, the safer you are.

Accessories

Jewels

We can utilise both Ghastly Eye Jewel and Cobalt Jewel for most of our jewel slots. Early on get decent two stats for the three flexible slots.
Three of these have to be Ghastly Eye Jewel because it is the only base that can roll poison chance. You should aim for 2x jewels with 14% and a third with anything 12 or higher.

For a list of various stats you can look for in addition, in no specific order:

1. Minions deal #% increased damage
2. Minions have #% increased attack speed
3. Minions deal # to # additional Physical Damage
4. Attributes of whichever kind you need
5. Resistances if truly desperate.

Amulet

The Jinxed Juju is our go-to here. Decent attributes, good chaos resistance and a solid damage reduction mod through letting spectres take damage for us.

Rings

High life, resistances & attributes as usual. Make sure you get Bone Ring as they can roll minion-related modifiers.

Modifier Priority List:
1. Life
2. Elemental resistances if needed
3. Attributes if needed
4. Minion damage
5. Minion cast speed
6. Chaos resistance

Weapon

2x Clayshaper. Good flat values, extra golem. Incredibly efficient item.

Flasks

Slot	Flask	Description
1	Seething Divine Life Flask of Assuaging, Sealing, Alleviation or Allaying	Instant life flask with bleed removal
2	Rumi's Concoction	This flask provides us with the remaining block % that we need to reach the cap. This is an optional flask
3	Flagellant’s Basalt Flask	This further scales your defensive scaling vs physical damage, just be careful when you use it as it taunts enemies around you on use	Ideally, you get a #% armour suffix here
4	Flagellant’s Quicksilver Flask	Generic movement speed flask	I prefer MS suffix, but feel free to change that if you don’t value it
5	Open Flask slot. Put what you prefer here, run double life flask if you want	Personal Preference suffix
