GhazzyTV's Mage Skeleton Necromancer Ascendancy, Bandits & Pantheon Powers (PoE Secrets of the Atlas)
Ascendancy
The most optimal way to play this build doesn’t offer a lot of free choices when it comes to the ascendancy nodes. In this section, I will go through the nodes you’ll want and why.
My preffered set-up
The ascendancy nodes are listed in order of importance and tied to the way you need to travel to access them.
- Commander of Darkness – minion speed and free resistances are super sweet
- Mindless Aggression – Mandatory travelnode, but grants decent damage
- Bone Barrier – This is free phys mit and minion leech. Incredible ascendancy node.
- Mistress of Sacrifice – This might look odd as we’re not bone barrier, but we want the duration for Fresh meat.
Bandits
You will kill all of the bandits, as they provide no significant gains worthy of sacrificing the skill points.
Pantheon
Most builds go by personal preference, however, for this build, the Pantheons should not be anything but what is presented in this guide. You’ll want the upgraded _Lunaris Major God to avoid chaining and getting slightly better maxhits vs bosses and dangerous things
You should also pick the Gruthkul Minor God pantheon to further mitigate physical damage
