The Neecrow build. Looks very fun, I'll definitely try this on my next character. This type of minion build looks way more fun to me than the Necromancer builds, lightning just does it for me.
Tried out your build put my twist on it cause I don’t do direct copies I did go frenzy totem Went with more health and resistance and used different gear and legendary and it’s fire
I've had some luck equipping Arek's Bones in the main hand. It gives armor shred for you and your minions and increases that effect. If you can stay on a boss for a couple seconds, its health will melt away.
I think it's good to have 1 wolf at your side with "Snarl" node, so your wolf have chance to give you and your crows howl buff that increase cast speed by 20% when killing an enemy
@@Neeko2lo wouldnt the build be even crazier with one less crow instead wolf passives and take some other skill instead of blessing? like frenzy totem?
@@keijo4359 I actually tried frenzy totem before the extra crow but I dont think its worth it. One more crow gives you more clear, more damage and also uses the crow node on the top left which gives more damage per crow as well
it looks like it does on the target dummy if you have enough damage. Most bosses (especially before empowered monoliths) are dead in 10 secs. But If I make follow up showcase I will include a julra maybe
Your planner is uh...interesting. What "bosses" are you one shotting with blue gear and no blessings? And which one is it, one shotting or 10 seconds? Contradictory statements. Not trying to be rude, serious question.
Timeline to target farm: Reign of Dragons ("Unique or Set Axe Mace or Spear" echo rewards). I also heard that rune of ascendance works relatively well with a 10-15% chance (never used that myself though)
I just did Soulfire Bastion and got it at the gambler. Otherwise try unique axe prophecy. The game will tell you to target unique and set axes in such and such monolith ( where ever it is it's more likely to drop...Rein of Dragons I guess) but I never have any luck doing that. Example: the smite sword...I didnt get it targeting it in the monolith with unique swords, I got it from a prophecy. COF is GREAT for the game.
@josht9518 you can try this: Make tempest strike a totem with "looming gale" node, downside of this it can't melee strike so you can't get the stacks from "gladiator of lagon" node BUT still you can get the stacks from "lagonian shamanism" node. You will get less stacks than normal hits from melee but you can use gathering storm as your main dmg skill that boost your crows :) I didin't tested it yet but it can works
hey, would it not be beneficial to invest in Lagon's wrath? get those lightinng bolts everytime you fury leap? I see it's related to gathering storm tree, but wouldn't it be very strong in any case because of your investment in lighting damage? also, you could invest in gathering storm instead of investing in warcry I guess. what do you think? i'm very curious. thank you.
You dont really have time to use gathering storm since keeping the tempest strike "gladiator" stacks up will consume most of your time. And sure you could use that fury leap talent, might be useful for leveling! :)
@@Neeko2lo oh I see, because you have to keep spamming the tempest strike :) makes sense. thanks for your reply ! great build. I was trying to create something like this but struggled myself. appreciate it.
Hey, could this build make sense as a shaman? with more focus on elemental dmg and lightning stuff? Its a damn shame that shaman only got the stupid totem build.
You would have 2 less Stormcrows straight away which would make this significantly worse. Also you would lose aspect of the lynx and the only good node in shaman tree is Rune of Awe. Shaman would probably be worse
I just looked it up and it seems he is playing a much more defensive version with frost stormcrows and a shield. His will do a fraction of my damage but maybe his is hardcore viable
@@chiing8706 Now starting to get into empowered monoliths I started to opt out of the chain lighting in the crow tree and the lack of survivability is starting to show a bit while also not being the fastest AoE clear build. Single target is still insanity though

Any confirmation yet on whether or not spell damage applies to the crows?
@@nazwa226 Im still not sure, its really hard to test because damage seems so variable

im interested, may give this a try--squirrel boi may become crow boi
I asked for video in your stream twice, ty for this bro 🎉
Also glad you manage to make a good build after 2 years or something😂
Its gonna get even crazier too: imgur.com/a/2WnKmeK
The min maxing of this build is going to be crazy

@@keijo4359 not yet :D
Please make a follow up! This build is insane!!
later today!
Great job showing what the build looks like in action ooooh wait you did not show that
Ye the 30 seconds in the beginning werent enough
I wasnt aware showcasing running around with a slow movement speed and greeting 3 mobs in 30 seconds was considered gameplay@@Neeko2lo
@@jeglider thats what the entire build will look like
@@Neeko2lo doesn't sound fun in that case.
Nice build! I wonder if the wings of lightning in the gathering storm tree work like I imagine it 🤭
Could have shown a little of boss killing gameplay since it's the thumbnail.
it looks like it does on the target dummy if you have enough damage. Most bosses (especially before empowered monoliths) are dead in 10 secs. But If I make follow up showcase I will include a julra maybe
oh btw do you by any chance have a loot filter to share for the gear in this build? thanks!
my filter is very bare bones and I play in trade so nothing good to share unfortunately
I would also be happy for loot filter for this build

Where do you farm Cleaver Solution easiest? :)

Been trying to do something like this but utilizing the crows with Gathering Storm instead of tempest strike. Slow going. Might just be my ineptitude
Tempest strike offers so much flat spell damage, gathering storm can't compete
@@Neeko2lo these are the things I need to know before i start playing! But I can definitely see it. Appreciate the video man. Well done
@josht9518

@@enderex yes exactly! Good luck with the build maybe you can make it even better!
Is there ANY way to make the crows leech? Im surprised these things even stay alive in reg monos, and I do notice they're health not at full often.
Critical bite at the end of the beastmaster tree. I confirmed that it worked for me but some people have reported it not working for them. Maybe buggy
@@Neeko2lothank you! exactly what I was looking for Sad to hear it may be bugged though. It (should) work reading it.
I saw you had like 800% increased lightning damage, does that affect minions or no
It doesnt usually. But the storm crows have a node called "Fulminating Caw" which makes them gain even more than you.
Can’t stay alive in empowered monos, and I can’t keep mana up to even attack
Your tempest strike should barely cost any mana, how do you run out of it?
@@Neeko2lo not sure I’m using your guide haha, I have 61 strength with the cleaver
do you have a loot filter also? many thanks
not a very good one. Basically just looking for items with 3 stats that I need. I also play trade so its not as important
Howl is really strong and I gave mine more lightning damage. What idols should I look for?
anything with shared lightning damage/health is great
Hey, could this build make sense as a shaman? with more focus on elemental dmg and lightning stuff?
Its a damn shame that shaman only got the stupid totem build.

I love viable minion builds even if my character is squishy as a trade off
Can you put this build on maxroll so I know was skills to level first?
Tempest strike was the main skill I used during leveling alongside the stormcrows. Use a staff during leveling for the flat spell damage too
Will you be doing a 100 hour review?
yes!
What points do I use on the wolves you have 16 left over.
you only need the one on the very left called "packhunters" the rest doesnt matter
I just bricked my scepter i rolled the flat spell damage for minions with a chaos instead of hope... oof rip 100k
pain
Im running this build.
Is there any modification?
Part 2 of the guide: th-cam.com/video/6yOWs82yQqU/w-d-xo.html
@@Neeko2lo oh I already choose part2
I reply the video
Have you seen Kripparian's BM build? It seems quite similar to this but I'm curious what the differences are.
I just looked it up and it seems he is playing a much more defensive version with frost stormcrows and a shield. His will do a fraction of my damage but maybe his is hardcore viable
Sir do you have a Lootfilter for this ?
In the follow up video I will show my filter but its literally the most barebones filter you will ever see haha
Oki thank you :3 @@Neeko2lo
Why wolves? why not gathering storm?
You dont have time to use gathering storm. You will always press tempest strike. Wolves give you + 1 Crow thats the only reason
Can I use it as a starter build?
I did, make sure to use a staff while leveling until you get 50 strenght with cleaver solution.
@@Neeko2lo Thank you. Are there any drawbacks to this build?
@@chiing8706 Now starting to get into empowered monoliths I started to opt out of the chain lighting in the crow tree and the lack of survivability is starting to show a bit while also not being the fastest AoE clear build. Single target is still insanity though
@@Neeko2lo Going forward, what kind of build are you thinking of going for?
@@chiing8706 I will try to push this build to the max first. Not sure about after yet
is this good for hardcore?
Not with this exact setup, no. You would have to remake it a little bit
PvP in this game when?
I think we would just oneshot everyone haha
lul
idols?
any shared lightning damage ones are great. Health of course as well. Shared spell crit is good too.
D4 Bad. LE Good.
Stop comparing d4 when d4 has no power to keep up rather compare poe and last epoch lol
d4 bad
But why does it look like as if there are maggots coming out of your crow-thumbnail? 🪱
Thunder and lightning very very frightening
