Tempting Fate is a very clear choice as one of the top Malignant Hearts this season because of how ridiculously high it can push your damage numbers. This means that you can cast Corpse Tendrils consistently, while having your equipped Corpse Tendril ready to cast whenever you need it. More importantly, Corpse Tendrils casted by the Sacrilegious does not put the actual skill on cooldown. Such as Grim Harvest, Fueled by Death, and even the Aspect of Grasping Veins. Skills casted by the Sacrilegious proc any bonus effects of both Corpse Tendrils and Corpse Explosion. The Sacrilegious automatically casts equipped corpse skills on nearby corpses. Rubies are included in the build since Maximum HP is more effective in lower levels when compared to the alternative Gem bonuses. Stored damage is increased by 10% per second.Įmeralds are the Gems of choice for the Weapon becaue of how consistently we can apply Vulnerable and all our sources of Critical Strike Chance.

Then, the absorbed damage erupts onto surrounding enemies. You gain 40-60% Critical Strike Damage but your Non-Critical Strikes deal 20-15% less damage.Ĭritical Strikes and all subsequent damage within 2.0-4.0 seconds is absorbed by your target. Walking near a Corpse automatically activates an equipped Corpse Skill every second, dealing 40-30% reduced damage. Sacrificing Shadow Mages increases our Essence, which helps improve the results we get from Ossified Essence, Imperfectly Balanced, and Rapid Ossification.įinally, sacrificing our Iron Golems gives as a huge increase to the Critical Strike Damage that we deal.

Sacrificing Skirmishers increases our Critical Strike Chance, which synergizes with the rest of the build as well as with the Tempting Fate Wrathful Heart. Like previous iterations of the Bone Spear Necro, this build sacrifices all its minions in exchange for a more powerful Necromancer. This plays well with our build because of the added safety and Bone Spear's splintering mechanic, wherein Bone Spears splinter into shards after traveling a set distance. Lidless Wall grants us the chance to spawn Bone Storms on distant enemies, eliminating the need to approach enemies just to trigger the Aspect of Shielding Storm. The endgame variant of our Bone Spear build swaps out the 2H Sword for a 1H Sword and the new unique shield, Lidless Wall. This allows us to swap out our previous The Decrepit Aura heart for The Barber Wrathful Heart. The addition of the Osseous Gale Aspect increases our Bone Storm up-time, which decreases our effective “cooldown” since the time we spend without an active Bone Storm is lessened. While the skill build and playstyle are similar, the addition of uniques and the arrangement of aspects pushes the build to new heights. This is the endgame version of our S1 Leveling Necro build.
