​

This is a support build capable of activating up to 8 auras, 2 of them being curses. But don't fool yourself thinking that it can't take all the content solo, its single target damage is very respectful for a support character. It's an awesome build to have if you want to play on parties but not be entirely dependent on them.

Pros

• Spectres don't need to be casted all the time

• 8 Active Auras

• Great Clear Speed

• Good single Target Damage

• Safe build, stay behind and let your minions do their job

• Awesome for Parties

​

Cons

• Not so Cheap

• Many Mandatory Uniques

[Cheap Gear Here]

• BODY ARMOUR

- Shavronne's Wrappings is mandatory because it's a low life build and without it's "Chaos damage does not bypass energy shield" mod chaos damage would kill you instantly.

• WAND

- Midnight's Bargain is mandatory because it grants 1 extra Spectre, and 1 extra Zombie. Above all it also has increased minion damage and movement speed.

• SHIELD

- Prism Guardian is mandatory because Socketed gems have 25% reduced mana reservation and Blood Magic. This is a support build, so we need to get as much active auras as we can. With this shield we can get up to 8 active auras, two of them being curses.

• HELMET

- ​I recommend a rare Energy Shield helmet with over 250 Energy Shield, +2 level to minion gems and elemental resistances. Examples here.

- ​The Vertex is also a very good choice, it grants up to 304 Energy Shield, +1 to level of socketed gems and It also reduces in 50% the mana cost of your Zombies, making it possible to cast them even with all auras active. If you want a budget option to be tankier and have better zombies, this is the way to go.

• GLOVES

- ​Rare energy shield gloves with at least 150 Energy Shield. Examples here.

• BOOTS

- ​I recommend rare energy shield boots with at least 150 Energy Shield and some Elemental Resistances. Examples here.

- ​Bones of Ullr is a good choice if you already have a good Energy Shield pool and capped elemental resistances. These boots grant +1 level of Zombies and Spectres.

• BELT

- ​A rare Crystal Belt with at least 120 energy shield and some strength. Examples here.

• RING #1

- ​A rare Unset Ring with strength and if possible some elemental resistances. Examples here.

• RING #2

- ​A rare Unset Ring with dexterity and if possible some elemental resistances. Examples here.

• AMULET

- The best option for having more Survivability is the Presence of Chayula that grants 60% Chaos resistance, stun immunity and 20% of maximum life converted to Energy Shield.

- ​The best option for being an even better support is Solstice Vigil that allows you to have one more Curse Aura active. Details here.

- Those 2 previous amulets are not cheap, so while saving currency to buy them I have a good budget alternative for you. Sidhebreath that provides minion damage, minion life and minion speed.

• FLASKS

- Quicksilver flask for more movement speed. Look for the "Increased Duration" and "Immune to freeze and chill" mods. Examples here.

- Basalt Flask for more physical damage taken reduction, look for one with Immune to Bleeding during Flask Effect. Examples here.

- Rumis's Concoction as a defensive flask to boost your armour and block chance. 

• ENCHANTMENTS

- ​Helmet: Spectres have 40% increased Damage.

- Gloves: Of Reflection.

- Boots: Movement Speed.

P.S. Enchantments are not super important, so don't feel bad if you don't have the right ones ;)

• RECOMMENDED ANOINTMENTS

- ​First Choice: Ravenous Horde (Verdant + Verdant + Opalescent)

- Alternative Option #1: Soul Thief (Sepia + Crimson + Opalescent)

- Alternative Option #2: //
