Thought about making a leveling necro to at least 25 to see the difference in leveling damage for when the S4 goes live to compare? not sure if you did or thought about doing that.
Hey Rob, erstmal vielen Dank für dein Video, hat mir sehr geholfen! Ich hab kürzlich einen guten Ring of mendeln gefunden, ist der noch nützlich und könntest du einen Build empfehlen? Danke für deine Arbeit 🤗
What I like about Rob is that even his main class is Barb, he still is enthuastic and impartial about other classes as much. This is true dedication to his work, unlike some TH-camr that keep taking shots at broken build outside of his/her favorite main class 😂
Unlike the other ginger that knows fek all and brings nothing yet he is making interviews xD Also necro people are now pretending that it is great while not a long time ago were crying that barb op. So time to take medicines for some peeps.
I wouldnt say impartial. He was whining about necros at first til people told him quit crying about it 😂😂😂😂. His Barb has been OP since launch and tried talking about necros smh
Hi Rob, I guess this will be the season of the necro and you will definitely do it, but don't forget about the Barb💪can't wait to know what build you will do for the barbarian 👍
I loved rocking my minion build even when it was not op.. and lets face it having ya own army of undead never gets old LOL , i totaly skipped seasn 3 so lets hope 4 is worth my time...
Hey. Will you make, or does it exist anywhere, a planner or a guide for the combo-build that plays both golem + mages? I dont feel like specializing into one direction and im fine taking a few performance hits on either side to have both builds combined.
Hi Rob i love your builds and run them since season 1. The necromancer is my favorite class. In your video your necro uses the shako and the ring of starless while in your guides they do not appear. Whats the deal? I got Shako, Grandfather and starless skies ring and would like to use them on my necro build, are they recommended or better use different gear to select the aspect and the harden i want?
Hey, I am currently not so much into Necromancer. But I can say for sure that Grandfather and Starless Skies are not an option for a Minion Necro. The video is a bit older, my Planners are up-to-date. I recommend using this planner, it's my planner slightly updated by Thessain who cleared a 142 Pit: d4builds.gg/builds/ef414fbd-81cd-49d1-9c8d-4938b278e2ee/?var=2
@@Rob2628 Thanks man, since i found Doombringer and Tyrael too, i decided to build a Barb this season too. Will build a bash barb using your planner. Regards
Without a basic skill under the left mouse button, how do you smash boxes, vases, ore mounds, etc? Are you left with only F for interacting with things?
yo rob should we start out with the standard build while leveling? or go straight for the boss killer version, if i want a smooth leveling experience and get to wt4 early
@Rob2628 hey rob was trying to emulate ur necro build, but noticed that in the 2h wep u have put attack speed as one of the perk, but actually is not a roll? or i cant find it in any of the base wep with crit strike dmg, thought?
Coming back to the game bow am I correct that Wernardo Druid is one the same lvl as this? Are both viable to kill Uber lillitth? Still need to kill her
I joined D4 as necro, i wanted to play minions but it was never viable, always had to go back to spear or spirit. Now finally i get to play the class fantasy i wanted and still be competent at the end game, as we will get there faster this season.
Yeah , i think its not the good title with the build on his page . This is his golem minion build , not just the minion build in which he use the explosive mist aspect , thats why you need the explosion corpse ( i think )
Ho i just saw that he put both build in the video lol , i was only looking at certain point of the video lol but yeah , in the skeletal only version , you are using the explosive mist aspect , which triggers explosion on surrounding corpse
At 1:35' you have posted that golem mastery has been adjusted down to 5 stacks over, but how do you get Golem Mastery to be at eight? I have followed your guide, am at Level 90 and mine is at three.
My thought is the enemies are dying too fast for the shadowblight to damage them to gain the stacks. It seems like the shadowblight is better used on bosses and the minion attack speed for general gameplay.
Just have fun go crazy and become the Minion King... That's what ima do lol... Been a necro Minion main since day 1 and they r finally back to be amazing.
@@vreelz that kind of sucks, because it doesn't feel like Shadow Blight is really adding much here, maybe im wrong, just feels like we are taking it because there's nothing else.
ROB, i'm french and new here !! i'm following your MINION necro build but i don't understand, why you put point in Destruction corps, but we don't have it in comp bar .
waiting for your updated necromancer builds. most of the recommended tempers are total armor but that's too much since they already announce to only cap at 9230.
What's the most survivable class? I've only tried Barb, Necro, and Rogue, and my Necro can easily survive Tier 90+ NDs with no Ubers but my Barb and especially Rogue can never survive 90+ ND without the Melted Heart Uber. Hell, I can't even do Tier 90 ND with my rogue even with 2 Ubers.
Been watching your videos since launch of 4. And I have to say it's odd watching you so a video on Necro 😅. But I'm stoked everyone is excited about Necro this season. Good vid.
idk...i play with the skeleton mage pit runner build, ive got pretty decent gear with almost the best possible tempering and perfect aspects yet i cant finish lvl 80 pit because it took "ages" to kill the boss, ive seen a lot of videos where someone just popped army of dead and the boss died in no time. i dont have the perfect gear so i dont expect to kill a lvl 80 pit boss in 3 second but man it took me around 2 minutes while dodging the one shot mechanic abilities. and i have zero idea what im doing wrong
Just a comment when you do play the build. I've been playing it as mage summoner and its been blasting. However, corpse generation is quite difficult. Corpses are very important as they are the method we make enemies vulnerable and activate the priest buff on one of our legendaries.
I’ve only recently discovered a lot of the Diablo world and your videos have been great. I don’t know if this is your full time gig, but the way you crunch the numbers and builds etc is wild. You come across as someone that could tell me a great build for my tax return 😂 Cheers Rob, looking forward to S4
@Rob2628 Your skill tree is for 1 shot boss, but you are explaining the mage build the entire time. This video is very all over the place. Why is nobody else talking about this?
So many people are gonna start this build just because of everyone saying it's the best, and not realize that the summoner playstyle isn't for them. Should probably include a disclaimer for them.
Honestly way too many okayed barb last season can we get that to happen with necro this season??? Imagine being able to afk helltide with a ton of other people and it’s infinite xp
I find the more I learn of this game I’m still lost. A friend says a new season is starting so I have to start at lvl 1 again i been grinding my necro build just to find out I have to start over.
Finally after 3 seasons i get to enjoy the game as a minion summoner, YES. and not that faky achy DoT builds or Shadow shit. pure minions in your face! YAY!
So minions inherit your stats, but does anyone know just how much they inherit? Crit chance + crit dmg multipliers? I saw a Reddit post saying they possibly inherit things like dmg to close, which would be a double proc if you got close as well.
What I do not understand is if a class is busted, ok let it be busted. You dont have to nerf it for the other classes. Buff the other classes. Nerfs should never happen. If ppl only playing one build of that busted class then obviuosly buff the other skills.
I generally agree with you but there is a limit to how much you can buff builds in Diablo 4 or we end up like in D4 with trillions & trillions of damage

I always go sorc, even when it's not the best or rogue, but i'm stoked to actually finally playing the necro as it should be played W.
Thought about making a leveling necro to at least 25 to see the difference in leveling damage for when the S4 goes live to compare? not sure if you did or thought about doing that.
Will try both Necro and Barb, both focusing on Thorns. Hoping it fares better late game.

Shut up Meg

You mean Wudi?? Lol
Thanks Rob. Always positive, great attitude, mathematical genius for builds. 💪🏼😎
Thanks man! Appreciate it 💪🏼😎
he stole this build from chinaman
I love that they launched S4 Tuesday, so we will be blasting a heap of damage out on Tuesday.
😅😅
Hey man! The paragon you're showing on your vid. is different to the one linked as the standard build. Which one is the right one ?
Love the build. Necro probably my first class in S4
Hi Rob, I guess this will be the season of the necro and you will definitely do it, but don't forget about the Barb💪can't wait to know what build you will do for the barbarian 👍

This build is awesome , it took me a day to level 50. I do rest awhile in between but once you start out at level 1 the fun begins is very addictive
Moin Rob. Eignet sich die Golem Variante auch fürs normale spielen oder ist das nur ein Boss Killer? LG
Your work ethic is unreal, while always being so positive too. You are a cool dude Rob! thanks :)
How does this compare to the lazimancer? I’m looking for the most powerful build with the least amount of work/rotation 😂
Both are somewhat equal just decide based on what you prefer
Same right now in the game i go afk and my minions do everything... I have to push maybe 1 button every now and then lol.
How important are curses? Is there still the unique pants that can apply curse instead of having it on the skill bar?
They are great to slow, for damage reduction & for additional damage with passives & glyphs. You want to 100% have your enemies cursed
Do the changes only affect a seasonal character or do they affect an eternal character as well
What to do if I followed the Golem Boss Killer build and I am at 7k armor. How do I get capped??
Then for the general pourpose is golem or mage build to do? I think I want to push pity and do general Uber boos
I really like your builds but why do you not add the leveling path on your d4 page for the skills?
Thanks for this, my season 4 bible!
Is there a viable pvp build for necro this season?
on the planner you have corpse explosion on the skill tree but not on the bar , is it a mistake ?
I think you want the aspect for triggering corpse explosion with blood mist
Minion Bonespaer will be my go to build.
Same
Without a basic skill under the left mouse button, how do you smash boxes, vases, ore mounds, etc? Are you left with only F for interacting with things?
Decrep directs the minions

They took it out since the PTR. Assuming best option would be crit damage now along with intelligence and Max life.
Ok so which minion build to start with The mage or Golem ??
Yes.
Mage
Coming back to the game bow am I correct that Wernardo Druid is one the same lvl as this?
Are both viable to kill Uber lillitth? Still need to kill her
Why does maxroll not show + golem mastery as available on items anymore?
That’s how they fixed the crazy damage. They removed it
I joined D4 as necro, i wanted to play minions but it was never viable, always had to go back to spear or spirit. Now finally i get to play the class fantasy i wanted and still be competent at the end game, as we will get there faster this season.
Did something change with this build recently? I see the golem is sacrificed now?
No? The planner shows a blood golem which is what you want to use
@@KatCat18The video does but if you click the link to the build it got updated
While I admit, I’m hyped to play this, I don’t know if you should be able to 1 shot an end boss in an arpg.
Yeah they fixed that I think.
thanks for the vid. defnitley going minion build.
the build guide has corpse explosion but its not on the skill bar, why put points into it?
Yeah , i think its not the good title with the build on his page . This is his golem minion build , not just the minion build in which he use the explosive mist aspect , thats why you need the explosion corpse ( i think )

At 1:35' you have posted that golem mastery has been adjusted down to 5 stacks over, but how do you get Golem Mastery to be at eight? I have followed your guide, am at Level 90 and mine is at three.
you need gear to give you skill levels in it...
@@isseihyoudou4872 That is the thing, there does not appear to be any skill levels that can be rolled, nor are those affixes in the build guide.
Shadowblight doesnt seem to stack up with the mages for me? Have them set to shadow but they never increase stacks. Any ideas?
My thought is the enemies are dying too fast for the shadowblight to damage them to gain the stacks. It seems like the shadowblight is better used on bosses and the minion attack speed for general gameplay.
So shadowblight is basically for bossing? Assuming its better to use kalans edicts for general dungeon gameplay for the minion attack speed.
Love the build so far! Is there an end game version that uses Ubers? I imagine shako could fit nicely into this build
@rob2628 the paragon board number order is right? It go from 1 to 4
GOAT Rob
Thank you for you're impartiality and all the work you do Rob !
Anything change? Something about golem mastery?
What about cold minions build found bloodless scream wondering if it would be viable for end game
How much you have to change to get the Boss killer golem? Hopefully its a quick lil switch
Check on the planners there is a big overlap for sure
Make a best leveling guide for Necro to lvl 70 or something
its out there everywhere already
he did make a video for leveling... basicly jsut do hell tide untill you pass out
press the I win button done
just follow the end game builds... You don't need levelling guide for minions it's just that powerful
Just have fun go crazy and become the Minion King... That's what ima do lol... Been a necro Minion main since day 1 and they r finally back to be amazing.
Is Shadowblight the better option than Edict? You aren't really scaling Shadowblight at all but this is still better than minion attack speed?
I believe through parago and skill tree, you can cap out the attack speed. Minions cap at 100%
@@vreelz that kind of sucks, because it doesn't feel like Shadow Blight is really adding much here, maybe im wrong, just feels like we are taking it because there's nothing else.
@mcarr416ix I think it's mostly for that 20x multiplier and then the added bonus of having your mages stack the shadow debuff plus the weapon afix.
@@vreelz sad no one takes the board dedicated to shadow blight stuffs... ima try it tho it looks cool
SALTY !! And Already trying to get his Barb build buffed
ROB, i'm french and new here !! i'm following your MINION necro build but i don't understand, why you put point in Destruction corps, but we don't have it in comp bar .
it's triggered by aspect of explosive mist

idk...i play with the skeleton mage pit runner build, ive got pretty decent gear with almost the best possible tempering and perfect aspects yet i cant finish lvl 80 pit because it took "ages" to kill the boss, ive seen a lot of videos where someone just popped army of dead and the boss died in no time. i dont have the perfect gear so i dont expect to kill a lvl 80 pit boss in 3 second but man it took me around 2 minutes while dodging the one shot mechanic abilities. and i have zero idea what im doing wrong
in the video it shows guy using no blood mist in the skills bar and ur build link has it so what is it with or how
They didnt nerf it?
Just a comment when you do play the build. I've been playing it as mage summoner and its been blasting. However, corpse generation is quite difficult. Corpses are very important as they are the method we make enemies vulnerable and activate the priest buff on one of our legendaries.
1:04 wait... we get startersets / items now ?
Yes we do more info here > th-cam.com/video/S69ZKo-MHX4/w-d-xo.html
Will this build be viable in Season 5?
im ready for log in sim on the 14th got my place in que number 9999999

Is this build still good?
How do u know which items to catch on ground when they r planty ?
you pick them up and find out
That seneschal pet walked off lol glad to see the back of that crap!
Is the aspect that gives the warrior cronies shadow damage good? Can't figure out what it actually does, numbers wise, effects wise etc
how can i equip the GOLEM passive
Have they announced the buffs/nerfs yet? They said in previous patch notes like "many skills rebalanced" or some generic shit :(
I do agree. Shadowmages or golem build. BEST OVERALL. From zero to hero. 🧟
Can’t you wear the ring of sacrilegious souls to autocast and then you won’t need corpse tendrils and raise skeleton on the bar?
You need those skills on the hotbar for it to work
This guy has been running the diablo train for atleast a week non stop.
he runs this shit

So no Ring of Mendeln??
thx very much for this,
You're welcome! Enjoy S4 :)
I wanna play a minion necromancer because then i can finally pretend that I have friends who will watch my back
why does my paragon board look different -_-
any one know if blood surge is any good ?
What if they nurf it 5 6 days into the league.is that possible?
everything is possible but i dont think so - they know minions are strong and are okay with it
I'm going to play season 4 because it'll be the first season I don't have to inch and crawl my way with minions
When you decied to check some videos to see if your doing ok and realize your already doing the meta. .... at almost 95%
So many people are gonna start this build just because of everyone saying it's the best, and not realize that the summoner playstyle isn't for them. Should probably include a disclaimer for them.
Then they will very quickly realize this and go play something else. It's no biggie

wow this is what mendeln mist should have been! no need for minions to be applicators of your damage, now minions themselves are stronk!
how to consume a corpse with this build?
push the skeleton button....but the aspect on the helmet does the explosion.
Must remember that when you even deal that 200M you need to grind your life.
