Inarius Bone Storm Necromancer

[Defman 0]

I'm still using Mirinae, Teardrop of the Starweaver and it works good with the build. The proc chance is reduced, but still it procs frequently enough to kill everything around me.

The hotfixes haven't been implemented yet. Got pushed back to Monday last I heard.

Hmm yeah I see. Better to ask Deadset about that gem.

This build is still strong after the nerf but it's not the best anymore. The guides should be updated. Trag'Oul corpse lance is by far the strongest now.

[Guest Andrew]

The proc nerf to Mirinae was a pretty powerful swing with the nerf bat. its no longer a strong gem and hurts the build overall.

It's way more balanced now after the hotfix. Teardrop was crazy OP before.

Hei guys, quick question: While working on getting my last piece of this set, I ran Corpsewhisper Pauldrons instead as it was the only Necromancer shoulder I had. Why is this not included in the build?

This would buff your damage pretty significant, as with good groups or while using Land of the dead, you are at 20 stacks the whole time, giving your Corpse Lance Brittle Touch 30%*20 = 600% more damage. 

I get that in the proper build it would be competing with Aquila Cuirass, but am wondering if that is the only reason it is not included, or if there is something else I'm not seing?

Maybe because if you are wearing it as opposed to putting it in the cube, there is no space to put a ring of royal grandeur on it if you have Unity, Traveller set, Kalan and Krysbin's Sentence?  in contrast Corpse Lance Trang'Oul has such a space to put that Ring of Royal Grandeur so you can put that shoulder and the corpse-dropping glove together.

Which gem is the recommended replacement for Mirinae?

[Adjourner 1]

This is my speedfarm build that my friends and I are using.

Mirinae is sill best. Just weaker

Am I the only one who has Bone Armor without 10 stacks after patch (17/7/18)?

I use the 15 stacks, personally I like the extra toughness.

I was wrong. Turns out best bet is Gogok for cooldown reduction of Land of the Dead since the majority of your damage will now come from Corpse lance. This also increases attack speed for Scythe outside of LotD.

I'm only missing Traveler's Pledge, Krysbin, and Dayntee, but I got my shit wrecked as soon as I stepped into a Torment 8 rift. Damage was fine, but there is no healing with this build at all, unless I'm seriously missing something.

 

Edit: Re-did how I shuffled through the abilities, and I wasn't even touched. Still: No healing as a just in case?

I'd say I completely agree after testing Gogok of Swiftness is great for cooldown, and increasing attack speed stacked on Swift Harvesting is a great combo (especially if you're using my setup).

I'd say Krysbin's Sentence is the thing that'll push your dmg to t10-t11 easy (until you get ancient/primal pieces). However survivabiltiy is important; are you running Wisdom of Kalan and making sure you have max stacks of Bone Armor? Also using one of the passives like Dark Reaping or Life from Death are two great one's if you're struggling with life. There's also Devour Cannibalize if you're looking for something more utility based.

Has anyone tried Gogok for attack speed/CDR and Simplicity's Strength for healing, then changing Corpse Lance and gear to Poison damage to match the Bone Armor and Scythe runes?

 

Also, what element is the damage from the Bone Storm? Highest on gear or...?

Bone Storm damage type is dictated by the elemental type for Bone Armor. If you use the movement speed buff it'll be cold damage, if you use the regeneration buff it'll be physical, if you use the stun rune it'll be poison, etc.

It most certainly is not.  Even pre nerf, the Rathma mages build was killing the Inarius build in terms of damage.  And if the pre nerf Inarius build was OP, WTF about the Trag'Oul corpse lance build?  Both Rathma and Trag'Oul builds easily kill the Inarius build, even pre nerf.  

I stand by my original comment - Blizzard has no idea on how to balance this game.

an example - I was levelling up my DH in s11, was around lvl 50 when a friend joined with a lvl 1 character.  We did a few rifts together, he was playing with skeleton pets.  By the time he got to lvl 10, he was killing things faster than  my better equipped lvl 50 DH...so, how's that balance for you?

I'd say it's more of a marketing scheme to buy into the $10 OP builds that you can make from the necro... I enjoyed the Necromancer but not having any ancients and being able to do T13 is ridiculous.... and if it's not they should de/buff the other classes to match each other in terms of balancing...

[Aragorne 1]

What about survival, after Mirinae fix? I noticed that i need more healing after the patch, but I cant find solution about it. Now I'm duying  much more and almost all range dmg is killling me...

Is there any suggestion how to improve healing now (since Mirinae before fix healed the necromancer)?

I am having the same issue. Switched out the Mirinae for Molten Wildebeest's Gizzard which helped quite a bit.

[GOLIATHGUN 1]

I'm using this build exactly as it is currently written. I do not have ancients on everything yet, but my gems are all level ~70. I'm soloing Torment 13 GR 74 with time on the clock.

The build is squishy, so you need to get that 15 stack bone armor quickly or forget it. Once you get it fully ramped up it just rolls along.

[Guest Olkkis]

I just cleared gr70 in about 7:30 on hc, with something mostly similar to this build. I'm running with mirinae, pain enhancer and trapped but I've cubed reilenas and I've also not went with land of the dead. Full buffed I've got around 560mil toughness when it peaks, if my eyes didn't fail me.

Spooky to get the bone armor stacks but almost unkillable when you're at full stacks, basically I just jump in with blood rush if I see a pack large enough. As it's the easiest way.

I still need to make a few adjustments and find a decent off-hand but otherwise pretty solid.
