    Cold sunder charm :)

  • @therealbuechel1361
    @therealbuechel1361 4 місяці тому +1

    I ended up with a somewhat similar build. But I use 3 parts of TO Set (armor, belt, gloves) to cast firewall... also I got an infy iron golem and my merc wears bramble armor. I dont use mages at all tough... they're unfortunately not worth it. Such a fun and stylish build

  • @bobnewkirk7003
    @bobnewkirk7003 4 місяці тому +3

    I have loved this build concept for a very long time. I think there is a lot of potential to make this a viable build-path before super late-game with a couple adjustments from the devs. the biggest of which would be to allow mages to be toggleable to only summon one type on cast (this should include Archers imo but that's another video). additionally I could see a synergy system rework between CE, Fire Golem and Mages, but that's probably out of the scope of changes for D2R at present.
    Personally I think its a massive shame that Full Trangs doesn't play well into this build. the Fire Mastery bonus as the capstone of the set should empower this build greatly though at present the bonus isn't enough to even make this build viable midgame. Turning up the Fire Mastery bonus, as well as verifying that it worked on CE, FG and mages would go a long way to helping move this into viability.
    Personally I like the Infinity variant over the Enchant variant for solo, but for group play this build would absolutely smash. thanks for showcasing it.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +3

      aye, I think for group play this variant is far superior to the traditional necro.

    • @bobnewkirk7003
      @bobnewkirk7003 4 місяці тому +3

      @@GGMentor the biggest drawback to the build is the A3 merc not having any way to regen life. by intentionally pairing it duo with a Prayer merc (insight into infinity) you totally alleviate that concern.
      Like you said in the video, an off-meta pairing of Druid or Zon would make this build sing.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +2

      Prayer/insight regen doesn't apply to Mercs. Also It doesn't matter if the A3 merc dies as his enchant lasts for 1152 seconds as of current. Which means even after he's dead the enchant persists for a long time after. But speaking of the A3 merc dying, he rarely does. Since he is a back line fighter and I have an entire army for him to hide behind he rarely ever dies tbh.
      Also I talked about Infinity as well, as the inferior option to this.
      Conviction is by far superior to Lower resistance and enchant when it's active. But Convictions main issues are thus, Short Radius, and bad activation time(Not always active). Because Conviction works on a Timer activating every 2-3 seconds it's mostly inactive when teleporting about, as well as mostly inactive when in group play as the small radius means it's not on all the time on all of the monsters.
      Meanwhile Lower Resist hits the entire field of play, and Enchant hits the entire army, all your friendly players, and their armies.
      So the real comparison here is this.
      400% Attack Rating, 376 Fire Damage(To everyone and Every thing), and -65% Lower Res that's always Active, and hits multiple screens away.
      Vs -83% Enemy Defense(Half Vs Bosses -41.5%) & -85% Enemy Resistance on a 13 yard Radius that pulses every 2-3 Seconds and is not always active.
      I can speak from Experience this season, the Always Active > The sometimes active.
      I have been playing a Conviction Paladin, and a Lower Res Necro.
      So I have seen both sides of the coin. The Fire Necro Provides more to the team then the Conviction paladin. and that's a full level 25 Conviction not the baby level 12 version.

    • @bobnewkirk7003
      @bobnewkirk7003 4 місяці тому +1

      @@GGMentor I didn't realize that other mercs didn't benefit from prayer regen, playing solo it doesn't often come up.
      Necro has always had great support utility in group play. Running Enchant on top of an already functional Summoner makes for a solid build path, especially now that sunders keep Fire viable. You can run the core of this on a ton of builds, as it can be as low as a 40 point investment, so its got a lot of applicability as well.
      Summoner has already been my go-to for early season TZs so at the cost of a Vex you can get this build 80% of the way online. Totally worth trying out for a season.
      The mages change would really take it over the top.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +1

      lol not even the Merc that has Prayer Aura doesn't get the regen unfortunately. It's a compatibility issue with the way Merc Regen works.
      Haven't you ever notice players don't Regen without + Regen Equipment.
      However Mercs do Regen without Regen Equipment.
      Mercs have their own innate regeneration mechanic separate from players. So +Regen in any form doesn't work on them.

    I love my teleport/+1 Necro Skills amulet. It frees up my armor slot for better equipment than Enigma. I've noticed how slow a full-Trang's necro opens jars. It's like opening jars is affected by your slow FCR or FHR when you're a ghoul. So much time is wasted.

    Interesting, however i run skele/mage/mastery/corpse exp/lower res with 1 pointed revives. Full caster settup like a bone necro for max skills, summon lifer gcs, pnb lifers, e pride, e fort, e andy merc, and my merc can 1 shot p8 mobs with prides conc aura and 1 pointed amp dmg while summoning, once i get skeles and mages only, its insta clearing fast balancing lower res and amp dmg. Pretty sure im 40+k dmg with all of them not including corpse explosion which clears the screen of packs. Its even fast clear without corpse explode. And fighting bosses you decrep for slow/weaken and amp and it smokes them fast. And a really deadly route, pure black soul revives on the way to baal then only using lower res for them and mages lol.

    Does your negative fire res works on the enchant from your merc?
    And could it not also make sense to wear infinity yourself?

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  Місяць тому +1

      The negative fire res works on the minions, not on the enchant.
      When the enchant is cast on the minion they get that negative res.
      Infinity has no negative fire res, it does however have conviction which would apply to the monster.
      However as conviction only applies at full strength to non immune monsters and most monsters are fire immune, the -20% from Mangs is stronger vs immunes.

      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +2

      +Fire Damage does not apply to the minions no, but Negative Resistance does apply to minions.
      This was in several of the earlier patches. Including the one that allowed Assassin traps which also technically count as minions to gain -ELR
      Fire Sunders, Bone Break, Ect also likewise apply to your minions as well.
      So The minions are getting my -35% Fire Resist + Fire Sunder that applies to the Enchant Damage, Fire Golem Damage, and Mages.
      The + Fire Skill Damage of Which I have very little of applies to my Corpse Explosion.
      However the + Fire Skill Damage on the merc applies to his Enchant which makes the Fire damage spread to the army more powerful.
      So In Recap Fire Sunder + -EFR Applies to
      Fire Golem,
      Skeletons
      Skeleton Mages,
      Corpse Explosion
      Any Enchant Fire Damage Applied to any of the above.
      +FSD Applies to
      Corpse Explosion
      Enchant (FSD on Merc) Upon casting

    What if you put a Flickering Flame on the mercenary? I'm sure it improves the build

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  2 місяці тому +2

      So, plus Fire Skill Damage increases the enchant damage.
      But negative resistance does not.
      While flickering Flame does have -15% EFR it does not have +fire skill damage.
      Also, + Fire Skill damage doesn't really help the necromancer, but does greatly benefit from -EFR.
      So having an extra Facet on the fire Merc means more enchant damage which multiplies nicely.
      It works out math wise.
      Perfect setup for max fire enchant damage is Hexfire+fire facet, Harlequin Crest + Fire Facet, Enchant Ormus 15% Fire + Fire Facet, and Spirit shield.
      This gets you the maximum Plus skills with as much plus Fire skill damage as you can muster.
      5+5+5+15=30% fire skill damage
      2+3+3+2 = +10 Enchant
      Flickering changes it slightly to more attack rating but less fire damage.
      Being 5+5+15 =25% Fire Skill Damage
      And 3+3+3+2= 11 plus skills.
      So you sack 1 skill for 5% more skill damage and it does raise the damage number higher as a result.
      It might seem small, but multiplied out across all the minions it adds up nicely.
      15 Skeletons + Golem + 21 Revives = 37
      Alternatively you can just slap the Flickering flame on the Merc and not care about the damage output.
      It's not going to kill the build, but it's also not the better choice

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  3 місяці тому +1

      I doubt they were viable.
      In my testing the mages themselves do not do enough damage to do anything.
      It's usually something else that makes it work.
      Or to put it another way, the mages make it seem like they actually do damage but it's almost always something else doing the bulk of the damage. Merc, Skeleton warriors, Revives, Corpse Explosion, Golem, ect.
      I have an entire live stream where I tested the mages for hours.
      The results were lackluster even under optimal conditions.

      I don't think it's worth it, you lose a lot for very little gain.
      Conviction will help you kill non immunes faster, but you lose killing capacity against immunes.

      I tried it, took too much away from the build for minimal impact skills.
      The fire ball and firewall were meh damage wise. It was better to focus on the enchant.
      For comparison Enchant is at 376 Fire damage per monster.
      The fireball was 250 Fire damage per shot.
      Enchant was winning by miles especially when you factor in the number of monsters I have.
