Thank you. I totally redid paragon and gear last night, thanked my mages and golem for their service, and jumped back into nightmare dungeons for new glyphs. I'm looking for a 2h scythe and I'm absolutely loving this. Looking forward to your continued refinements. Still using Black River; lvl 98 main game; starting pit today.
thumbs up for a high quality build & explanation. Keep up the good work
You put out such high quality content, no wonder you are growing like crazy! Keep it up, you are a big inspiration.
I have to say the now older Blight build rocked and this build is even stronger. Oh shit thanks for the Goosebumps
I got a prefect role on hardened bones after I watched this video last week!! cheers for the videos.
cant wait for the updated build guide
Respect for an honest build
Thanks dude!! I was really struggling with previous build on lvl 50 pits, but with this one i did 73 lvl while still missing some gear and tempers
Still need to find and fine tune a couple of pieces but these changes alone very much boosted my dps. Thanks man for all your hard work on a playstyle I love.
Now if I can work out a good blood spec on my other necro I'd be happy. I love the thought of blood based necro.
Same I'm trying really hard to push without using minion build just got old for me
Blood Lance with every overpower and Lance aspect you can with the bloodbath pargon board being main goes hard probably not as strong as this but pretty fun (also aspect for blood orbs on corpse consumption with the sac ring)
I can't wait to switch over to this version of the build! Found an awesome Two-Hand Sword with GA DoT, Max int roll, enchanted to max damage, tempered max blight projectile % chance, and a mid shadow DoT roll! Just need to keep accumulating the rest of the gear.
Didn't know about the +Damage % affix doing its job twice =)
Great to see all info condensed, as usual.
Torn between a Blight and a Bone Spirit build for a no minion (or low minion if you want + maximum Essence per minion for stronger spirits)
Keep it up, you're the best!
that affix double dipping seems very much like a bug to me. imagine u have a 3 GA gear and opt for "damage" instead of shadow dot and then the dev fixes it.
also, adding shadow dot can buff shadowblight damage. with large amount of shadow dot, the damage of the key passive isn't trivial.
@@ethanh9543yeah I agree, it definitely sounds like a bug. I might try to redo some gear now knowing that regular damage% is better, but I’m keeping all my shadow/DoT% in the stash just in case.
Good stuff. Running blight with minions only for utility/defense that's pretty comfortable running in the 90s. Goal for now is to get to the point of farming 90s.
I’m so happy I’m not the only one using Osseous Gale! Great vid and thanks for all the hard work MBB!!
Good shout because it isn't on the build planner linked in the description
Dude, THANK U! Finally i can retire the minions
Hey Mac - as a new subscriber, just wanted to say thanks for coming up with this build as I’m really enjoying it. Random q for you (somewhat related): I see a lot of conflicting info online Re:barrier generation as a choice for gear and figured you’d know the correct answer. Does barrier generation refer to an increase in total amount of barrier you can make, or is it an ability to regenerate your barrier more quickly after taking a hit to it?
Trying this direction with trap/poison rogue. Looking good so far!
Hahaha you make this video just days after I respec'ed to your original blight build. Thanks for the awesome content.
Same
This his has been a lot of fun and a nice change from running my minion build. I've only just started masterworking but its already doing tons of damage. Just wanted to ask where you would fit the sacrilegous ring into it. I find it just must more convenient running it as I end up focusing too much on pressing corpse explosion/corpse tendrils/decripfy a lot. It's something I'm working on just wanted to know your thoughts on what ring you'd replace it with. Thanks for the build guide having an absolute blast on it so far.
Thank you for the updated build.. Saw earlier today the video about "Damage" having twice the bonus and waited for this video from you. I have Gloves with GA on Blight and Ebonpiercer with GA on Damage reduction. I play on Hardcore.. Is this going to work with 1 Hand weapon with Shield? I'm a little bit afraid to use 2 Handed weapon.. Cheers!
Thx... finally the ammy have been put into his work.
so this is the season 2 dot build :). love it
Another great video, and with very quick turnaround. Thanks for posting this! I was already movinng this direction after your last video, so seeing where to fine-tune things is awesome. I have another (hopefully not dumb) question. Would the Ring of Starless skies 40% multiplier to damage plus essence reduction be worthwhile to free up some (or even to add to) some of the essence reduction rolls on other gear? Or is the attack speed loss and additive damage loss too high for this 40% multiplier to be worthwhile? Of course, that assumes I'm lucky enough to get my hands on one at some point.
I believe starless is sub optimal but I haven't dropped one yet, to test
Do you have a new bloodlance build for this season? Great video as always.
Made Tier 97 with the old blight build and i think that was the cap for it :D glad we can still improve it to go higher
I must say, once again awesome build ! Also Im using resource generation on my rings... for my equips it resulted on better results (bad gear)... I using 20 essence, generating 21 per sec. with resource coast I was using 19 and generating 18... I dont know on high end gear if that would work better too, but worth the test if you didnt already (I doubt you didnt test this).
Perfect hardened bones here 😁
i found swapping bone prison with plunging darkness instead of corpse tendrils made the build feel so much smoother
@MacroBioBoi Excellent vid thank you. What about X'Fal's Corroded Signet? That aspect sounds intriguing.
How does this perform compared to shadow minions?
Do you think is possibile to swap corpse explosion for skellys to have both blight damage and some minions?
Nothing comes close to minions because of elixir of holy bolts. Fitting minions on won't increase damage, it may increase utility.
I running blight now with full minions/golem and old paragon...Pit 71 :)
Question, In the build planner for the paragon board you go from board 3 Bone graft to board 5 Cult leader. How do you go from 3 to 5? Board 5 then goes to board 4. Also on board 7 Bloodbath you socket Abyssal but it does not seem to be doing much here. What am I missing? Thanks
Thank you for this! Is it ok to switch from pure minion build to this on my level 60 necro? this way I can start leveling up glyphs for it.
Ah finally a Necro build I can roll with.
@MacroBioBoi could ring of the starless skies be slotted in on this build and if so for which aspect?
Maxrolled Hardened Bones here baby!
I have been waiting for this, thank you very much :) Question on the weapon affix. You mention shadow damage over time on the affix - shouldnt that be just damage over time?
They equal the same thing, but yes it's damage over time on the weapon.
@@MacroBioBoi I came to thinking. For gloves, wouldn't a 45% damage greater affix be superior to the 4 ranks greater affix in blight, given the double dip?
@@GoppleKing the increase of damage on blight itself is a significantly higher increase in your additive bucket
@@MacroBioBoi Thank you for taking your time to answer these "seem like a good idea but the stats-man always knows better" questions 🤪
In the linked guide you're ussing Retribution and Concussive Strikes aspects instead of Void and Osseous Gale. Any final thoughts on that? Otherwise a beautiful work as always.
That's what's needed to push higher tier pit runs. Need the damage.
@@MacroBioBoi Thanks. Great work. No one like you out there making content about their class 😅
I respec my shadow minion to this blight build.
It took alot of currency and resources but it was well worth it, because managed to clear my first pit 100.
Thank you mate.
Would you use the Uber unique Starless skies in this build?
I am also 100% building this option because the 2 handed necromancer weapons look AMAZING I can't wait to get this build put together
Hey, Macro! Thank you for all the work you do for necro
Sure can
@@MacroBioBoi❤
I got a Tyrael's Might, I wonder if I could use it for this build. If so, which aspect would be the least painful to drop
How does the interaction of Imperfectly Balanced and Resource cost reduction affix works?
Is the last version of the paragon still available some place? It felt better for me. Thanks
Hey Macro, been playing with this modified build off your build planner and really enjoying it but granted struggling some survivability. Had an X-Fal drop today and wanted to know whether decay or damned is safer to trade out or if Xfal is useful whatsoever
You would not use X'Fal's on this build
Your initial blight necro build has been my favorite so far this season and I'm planning to transition to this setup soon. What is your preference between tempering chance for blight to cast twice vs bone storm duration? I see you have the former here and the latter as an option in the build planner. Thanks!
Bone storm duration is superior
Have you tested with the two handed unique(Blood Seeker?) that turns darkness into a chilling effect that does up to 150% more damage to frozen enemies and restores essence? But i guess not as good since we can stack so much damage with tempering... But i was curious if it was good.
I also figured shadow would be better than it is.
You lose the double shadow blight damage with that route
Hi, I have a question about the Shadow Mages. Do they deal Shadow DoT or one-time damage, so are they affected by this double dipping bug as well?
They don't do DoT damage
Are there any ways to keep bone storm up 100%?
realy thx for this video, perfect:) im have question for one modification, reali like my storm been everywhere with lindless wall and droped one nice for me...how much been bad try it with wand(lucky hit up) and this uniq?do it been realy big hit on dmg going down or is it worthy?
I would never recommend using that for pushing the pit. It's fine for speed farming and Helltides.
@@MacroBioBoi thx, maybe try it just for gold farm on helltide:):)
Hey, question… if you don’t care about corpse explosion dmg and your bone storm consumes corpses, why have it on your skill bar?
Wouldn’t it be more efficient to replace it with Iron Maiden for additional curse dmg, (x) Dmg and essence regeneration?
I don't think the corpse tendril duration causing the pause before pulling them in is accurate. I don't have it on my gear and I noticed it's doing the same thing to me today. It's very annoying.
I'm thinking it might be the size affix. What if the time it takes to grow out larger is causing the slow down? I'll test it when I can.
Im using pretty much the same but with skeletons instead of blood mist to keep the corpse production, damage and shadowblight stacks up while running/dodging.
I put the blood golem on instead of blood mist and it's just an insane level of survivability, metamorphosis on the boots solves the unstoppable anyways. The only real problem is corpse production against bosses, you really need resource affixes to be able to maintain damage against them
Hey y'all, I'm having trouble keeping my cooldown low and keeping my bone storm up most of the time. Not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. Any advice??
Been following these builds really close as love the blight playstyle over the minions, I havent got quite the same level of gear yet but the one thing I cant seem to replicate is the cooldown reset that you get on bonestorm without focusing on lucky hit??
Cast Decrepify more often
Is the guide going to be updated soon?
Hi! Thanks for the guide! I have a few questions: I made respect from the neсro-summoner and everything is not bad from the point of view of clearing the pit, but the battle with the bosses from about level 80 does not work, they kill me faster. Can you make a detailed guide on killing bosses? I don't have damage tempering on the scythe, the blacksmith has already ruined the second one, how critical is it? I spent almost all the money to build this build and now I'm thinking
ok, i found other items with damage affix but still can't kill 90 lvl bosses. Golem necro without any elixirs 100+ ez
Is there any way to squeeze in the sacrilegious ring I just love the auto cast 🤔
I am running the same build pretty much, except I swapped bone armor for iron maiden. Iron maiden gives me big stuns and helps alot with swarms. Double curse blight melt !
I created this build for myself the start of this season because I was so impressed of the Ebonpiercer how fun the item is and it turned out not just fun but very effective at high end game too. Although I'll be honest I don't do nearly as much damage as you.. is it because I prioritized Intelligence and damage over time over raw % damage. Is raw % damage is the most effective stat overall for damage over time builds? Or even for a minion build?
Never mind I watched your previous video you explained it pretty clearly. It is crazy to me that a simple stat of +% damage(which is good for every build) is so much more useful than the specific damage over time one, it is a bummer.
how do you "just have infinite Bone storm anyway?"??
Also what u think about starkless sky in this build?
Got a question, Sir:
Found a Starless Sky on my 2nd Duriel kill,
would this help to bring down Blight essence cost enough while losing an affix and good rolls+tempers on a 2nd ring?
It would do that, yes.
Does shadow damage over time or damage give more damage what if they fix the 2x scaling for damage won't all this gear become obsolete?
Can you explain how to get more attack power? When i copy a build i feel like i'm only doing half the damage. i have the right rolled legendaries and affix and everything, but i still feel weak
Attack power stat on this game doesn't actually mean anything. It's probably incorrect skill rotation and maintaining buff uptime that leads to poor results. But without knowing how successful you are at emulating the recommended gear, it's hard to troubleshoot.
I’m working on blight version using shako, ebonpiercer, lidless wall, and doombringer rn the shadow damage and % max health from the doombringer is sweet so far
Thanks for the great content!!!! BUT I need some help....how does Marco dramatically lower his Bone Some cool down??? I thought it was consuming corps. But when I tried it, the cooldown does not dramatically drops. I doubled checked the build, skill points, and paragon board....I am in-sync with his.
Its decrepify - read the skill description for more. Consuming a corpse give u more damage
@@Cola_77 Thank you so much!
Shout out for the fact that we're from the same city. Boston!!
So my stats with using the revenge glyph are 45% damage, 22 Int with another 25.5 %damage for knowledge rare node. The preservation rare node is 450 armor, 22 Int with another 225 armor. I do not have my amplify glyph leveled up so I can not compare easily but revenge seems like it is much better. alas you do not get the 10% to cursed. Does amplify at lev 21 boost the magic nodes beyond this?
Is the Ring of Starless Skies worth using as one of your rings or just stick with standard GA rings? I had a double GA Starless drop in Helltide last night and I am temped to use it... Thanks in advance for your advice!
None of its stats are good for blight, but if you don't have a better ring, you can use it.
The paragon board is different on the website which one is the better one please?
in the planner you have 2 different variants for the paragon board. which one are you playing with here or what is the significant difference between them?
The second board
@@MacroBioBoi thanks! Loving the build so far.
Loving the build but curious if a 2 handed sword will work or do I need the 2h scythe?
I'm not getting any 2h scythes to drop for me and I have a couple of decent 2h swords I can use until I get a scythe.
You always use what you have, while you grind for what you want
Where do the yellow numbers come from as you’re not spec’d into crit. Is it the whither procs or just the impact damage from blight. Thanks for the builds as well.
I've wondered the same thing. I love this build but I'm not seeing yellow numbers like that hardly at all.
Bone storm hits a lot, blight impact damage, and shadowblight procs. Turns out if you have dozens of overlapping attacks, you're gonna crit sometimes.
I have a starless skies so not only does that give me a 40x multi but fixes any resource issues. Osseus gale being the one to remove as opposed to bone storm shadow damage?
Absolutely
Isn't damage over time better?
Hi, Whats the recommended Skill rotation in this build? Thx!
Blight blight blight… bonestorm lol
Spam blight, cast other skills when needed. Keep Decrepify and tendrils up.
@@MacroBioBoiCheers, thx boss
Would it be better to put on Tyraels Might if you double crit on the +max resist to replace Chest slot/Hardened Bones?
You would never replace hardened bones. You drop shielding storm if you're still using it. But I haven't used tyraels yet to see if it performs well.
Hello, just to understand, what is the purpose of attack speed on this gear ? (for example on the ring, while we could have intel or dmg )
To cast your spells faster. Significantly higher DPS increase.
D4 Season of the Double Dip, tho i love this build alot
I'm a bit confused on his explanation of what/how is double-dipping? Are we using generic dmg for both dmg parts of blight? That has a direct dmg and dot so I don't get it, since generic darkness dmg is the same or more. Also, the bolts from EP neck are a 3sec dot, so wouldn't shadow dot affix be better than generic?
This looks really interesting. I was enjoying Blood Surge a lot until i ran into essence issues and low boss damage. Tried minions, but that is not for me. This is what i will try next. I'll start looking for the gear asap.
Gl gl
So basically the plane damage, even if doesn’t boost the shodowblight passive as the damage over time, is a lot better? Interesting, I’ve seen your past video, but was still thinking that for that reason damage over time will be still useful.
Anyway we need such legendary multiplicative node also for blood build, they are lacking to much from multiplicative staking sources compared to bone and shadow builds, and in general there are to many aspect that aren’t multiplicative for blood builds
I'm currently running the Black River version and I'm excited to switch but worried Blizz might patch the damage bug. Do you think they might patch it anytime soon?
It's been in the game for multiple seasons, and even if they did, you'd be losing out on 100 additive damage.
Just to clarify:
You mention that a norm helm will be better but the updated guide says Shako and to "temporarily" use a normal helm.
Is it still the case that we want a GA helm over Shako?
I've noticed the corpse Tendrils lag, had on tone else notices a change in the sound it makes? Really seems like the sound and animation have been off since the patch.
The damage is quite nutty on this one but above pit 60'ish there's a major issue with defensives, bonestorm has way to low uptime for me to survive.
I’m using the Black River version still until I find a 2-hander. Would you recommend I swap exploit into the paragon board or stick with territorial until I find the 2-hander?
Swap in exploit
@@MacroBioBoi will do. Thanks for replying!
Mac, i need the blood lance build, lol.
What is the reason you dropped Aspect of Shielding Storm from your build after this video?
More damage.
Having trouble keeping bonestorm up anywhere near 100%...following your newest guide with osseos gale dropped - is that expected? That's even if I curse literally every enemy.
This setup is for pushing in high tier pit where monsters live long enough for you to get Decrepify procs. You must be fighting thing that die very fast? You may want to stay on the lower DPS setup, or learn to live without bone storm uptime.
@@MacroBioBoi that's probably it. I added osseus back for now - will remove it when damage is needed again
Ill be damned - Guess gotta scrounge my chest for a new weapon :O!
Thank you for this, I do have questions though I don’t understand why everyone uses a 2 handed weapon. I kinda changed it and I’m using a wand and focus not as much damage but with extra lucky hit and cooldown with the focus bone storm stays up the whole time. I’m sure I’m doing it wrong but I can do 75 tier pit now with no problem and garbage gear
That's great for lower level pit. At higher pit tiers, monsters live long enough where you reset storm before the end of a fight and you need the extra damage.
So back to my first love. Spam blight with void and tentacles! I love this!! Awesome. Also When I put my lev 21 Revenge glyph in the first node I get 125% of the 20 damage and the bonus damage if the requirements are met..so it totals like just over 60 damage. I do not have this in front of me for the exact numbers but why is amplify better than boosting the rare node and it's additional damage if requirement's are met by 125%. Oh ya and it boosts your 10 intelligence you get for wither.
Do you think a ring of starless skies would be good on this? Maybe sub out some of the essence/ sec and reduce resource cost for more damage affixes?
I'm not the expert like macro, but I'd say no, I've been mirroring his builds and essense is never an issue even spamming blight literally non stop.
@@jasonkeenan4154 appreciate your feedback. My thinking wasn't so much that it's required, but could free up some of the slots being used for resource gen/ resource cost reduction to be used for other affixes. Obviously you lose a legendary aspect and some ring stats, though. Also the 40% damage boost from starless aspect seems nice, too
I switched from minions to this a while ago after being bored with an afk minion build...lol My dot is currently at 760%. I'm just having a hard time with resource. Also, the game states that crit damage and ceit chance doesn't proc with dot. Will have to change to this para board as i am using your last blight board
I noticed the max roll guide stacks lucky hit chance but this version does not, may I ask why? For corpse generating purposes
Once you're fighting monsters for this long, you don't need to proc Decrepify as quickly, since the lobsters doe so fast at lower difficulty.
But if you increase the tendril duration doesn't that increase the crit strike chance and vulnerable duration as well on it? They can linger on the screen if so could careless about them sitting around longer as long as the stat boosts stay
This does not change the aspect 's functionality. Also you don't want crit chance on a DoT build.
I've been trying this but more focus on the DOT. Not impressed so far. I went and leveled a barb and now I'm back and ready to give it another shot. Going to focus on rolling plain damage and DOT.
Why is your gear from the stream later today different than the build planner? 😉
Do you mean yesterday?
He's always testing. That's how a person becomes him, obviously.
@@drewdimusmaximus9436 @champboehm7863 I'm just joking around
Planner would be perfect gear, not necessarily his gear
I just want to say that I was kidding, I think this is being misunderstood that's my bad
I’ve watched this over and over again for a week and finally got the pieces needed to commit to the build.. so fun that I blasted past my normal workday bed time and now I’m dragging ass… worth it!!! 😂😂😂😂
Active Blight Necro, while darting around with triple dodge… feels like I’m a Blight Necro ninja 🥷
I'm also dragging ass. I feel you. Glad you're enjoying the video
Hey man, I'm doing this build as you presented it here, and I love it. But the Maxroll version doesn't use Black River, and I cant imagine not using it. Is it REALLY that much better to use a regular 2hander instead?
Black River outputs 1/10th of the damage
@@MacroBioBoi Hey man, thanks for replying. Other thing I cannot figure out, is why ranks to Blight? It scales so very poorly, and all the damage comes from Ebonpiercer, whos proc damage doesn't scale with blight. Right now my Blight projectile itself hits for about 20k a tick at rank 5, while the Ebonpiercer bolts hit for 200k EACH. Surely those 4 points (and the stats on the gloves or head) could go to better places. Same idea with Imperfectly Balanced.
*Edit, ran another test, and blight is actually ticking for 20k, even worse when compared to the average 2 mill ticks a shotgunned ebonpiercer does.
@@aarondimoff5180 because when this video came out, I hadn't done the math of how inconsequential Blight was to the total damage.
@@MacroBioBoi, nice, glad to hear you say that. Thr Maxroll guide is the same as well just so you know.
@@aarondimoff5180 side note, imperfectly balanced does scale ebonpiercer bolts. The only slight optimization is moving the glove ranks and skill ranks, and even then they're not completely useless, they're just not optimal.
Hey Mac, I have a few random questions and you're possibly the only person that can answer any of them.
1. How does Bone Sprit interact with Imperfectly Balanced now that it's a core skill? (What is the drawback of using this passive since BS spends all ess, or does it actually work?)
edit ^ you answered in the next video
2. Is Blood Drinker Glyph still glitched in that it doesn't work while in Blood Mist form?
3. The B-tier CE build on Maxroll that isn't published yet - are you writing that, and is it Plagued CE?
4. With no barrier and no shield, but with fortify up, I get "Absorbed" hit splats. What is that?
5. I get that Death's Defense is "not needed", but to clarify, if I'm maxed on armor and resistances, and my minions inherit all of this, can their armor and resistances go over the cap? Needed or not, will Death's Defense actually do anything if my defenses are capped?
6. Does attack speed influence number of volatile skeletons summoned during Army of the Dead?
And probably more to come, lol. Thanks and I hope you have the time to respond.
I still struggle with Lilith and I have the dodging spikes down. I just cant dps her down past the 50% mark. All the adds get in the way and eventually I die from all the stacking debuffs. I am clearing now pit 67!
