GhazzyTV's Dark Pact Necromancer Ascendancy, Bandits & Pantheon Powers (PoE Necropolis)
Ascendancy
The most optimal way to play this build doesn’t offer a lot of free choices when it comes to the ascendancy nodes. In this section, I will go through the nodes you’ll want and why.
My Preferred Set-Up
The ascendancy nodes are listed in order of importance and tied to the way you need to travel to access them.
- Mindless Aggression
- Bone Barrier
- Mistress of Sacrifice
- Commander of Darkness
Mindless Aggression
Mindless Aggression Provides us with increased damage but is also on the way to Bone Barrier so we start with this node to get there quickly.
Bone Barrier
Bone Barrier Big health scaling ascendancy node as well as providing us with a massive layer of defense as well as better life sustain.
Mistress of Sacrifice
Mistress of Sacrifice is mainly used for the sake of granting us the buff from Bone Offering which helps us reach max block cap and, ideally, survive even the hardest content in the game.
Commander of Darkness
Commander of Darkness Damage scaling ascendancy node which also helps with resistances to alleviate pressure on our gear.
Bandits
You will kill all of the bandits, as they provide no significant gains worthy of sacrificing the skill points.
Pantheon
Most builds go by personal preference, however, for this build, the Pantheons should not be anything but what is presented in this guide. You’ll want the upgraded Brine King Major God to become Freeze Immune and free up that flask suffix. The block mods on this Major are also very welcome.
You should also pick the Shakari Minor God pantheon to mitigate Chaos Damage, as it is a resistance very few builds bother to consider. With the Petrified Blood strategy we are using, having a free method for us to mitigate chaos damage over time is more than appreciated.
