Hey bit of background ....ive only been back in this game 2+ months after many years away....after taking a deaths oath witch to t15 maps i found a foiled dd and made another alt for it using your build as a main outlay. Happy with it i must admit. Thankyou.
Im at the stage where i was saving for that ashes of the stars ammy.
I only have a few div to my name at this stage.....and with the affliction update in a few days (and price rise)....is that ammy still potent? What about the alt gems?..i have all gems in socket and am able to run dread banner/ vaal haste /haste and determination and pride.....no golem enchant yet....in standard.

Im still a little bit noobish to undstand the ramifications of the upcoming changes the affliction patch will do to said gems and ammy

From the knowledge we have so far it's looking like multiple nerfs, the biggest of which being the loss of the helm enchant. While it's possible that tomorrow the release a version of Carrion Golem that has significantly more buff effect it seems unlikely since they changed quality from the normal golem to increased buff effect. Aside from that we also lose a little damage from Maim Support, since quality no longer gives increased damage, though this is fairly minor. The loss of the enchant translates to 63 to 96 less physical damage per hit, which is comparable to losing three t1 phys abyss jewels, which is enormous at around 30 aps. The golem buff is *so* important to our build that it literally accounts for a THIRD of our total dps at current configuration- and this is with 300% increased buff effect. Since my current estimated dps is about 12m, that means if we have no replacement effect for the enchant we literally lose 2m dps.

I'm really, really hoping they release a transfigured golem that does almost no damage but has a crazy buff or something. Also Ashes is still potent, but I will likely be experimenting with a +2 INT amulet with pride/det res. This will almost certainly be more expensive than Ashes, but may be worth it. I'm not proficient enough with pob to tell.

Despite the nerfs the build should still be very functional, and I will be league starting it as usual. I may make more updates during the league if any notable information is discovered.

PoB won't apply the additional impale, but the buff from this spectre is INSANE for damage. It's slow so probably won't be useful for clearing most of the time, but for bosses it's absolutely ridiculous.

Hi, I had a question. In the past I have seen Dancing Dervish with Guardian because the main minion damage is with the dervish and not skill gems. Do you think this league is similar where this could be roughly doable with guardian too or would I be wasting my time? Sorry I haven't played POE regularly since Delve, so I am waaayy out of the loop nowadays.

Guardian offers purely defensive abilities for this build, and less effective ones than Necromancer. This build already has a lower dps cap, and we need all the power we can get.

I updated my league start stream for 3.23 with time stamps so anyone can easily see what the leveling process is like with this build. The recording was really choppy because it was my first time streaming on youtube and I didn't want to restart it =/

Hello again! Thanks for the build guide and youtube video, I am really enjoying the build so far. One question—how do i signal prey? It seems to deactivate when the sword activates.

You need a second Predator support gem somewhere in your gear. You will have two instances of Signal Prey, and you can find the permanent one by weapon swapping.

Added a video showing expedition farming strategy, which is extremely profitable and easy for our build.
