I've been running a thorns minion build, only unique you need is razor plate & make sure you have needleflare in your neck slot because if it procs on one minion it procs across them all, this means it will be procing thorns as a map wide aoe constantly across the entire battlefield if you max it. I just dropped my first tormented boss with this toon, or I should say the boss commited seppuku in shame in less time than it takes to microwave sushi.

The unique item Ring of the Sacrilegious Soul will help out with this. It will automatically raise a skeleton every second as long as it's on your hot bar.
is the link in the description old or something? lots of missing things in the planner and other stuff that don't line up with what is shown in the video....
Hi there, you have blighted on the gloves in the written build guide but you use the one that drains essence (great Feast) in the video? Are you still updating your build in mobylitics? Not sure what to go for here but I'm guessing its the feast one?
Yes, just take Wither and Dragging Shadows instead of that shit. At least you get bonus damage because they stack nicely with Blighted Aspect. This guy is probably just copying that build, and even the Mobalytics/GG page isn't his and outdated.
aspect of the embalmer on pants from moba build, and your reapers flesh chance. without it you dont generate jack shit for resources if you dont have essence regen
Do you have advice on a LVL 80 minion based necro build? I feel like that's the way I want to go but my build is currently all over the place. Thank you!
Just out of curiosity, semi new to D4. Naturally went with Necro. Found a Ring of Mendeln, and Howl from Below. Played that build FOREVER, they compliment each other so well an with darkness Corpse Explosion seeking ppl is hilarious lol But is the Aphotic Aspect still “bugged” on Xbox? 💁♂️ lol Just curious before I farm a whole new set of equipment for this alt build lol Things are dying fast, I’m just not sure if it’s proc’ing that badly. I’ll double check this evening. Did find a sacrilegious ring as well. Those 3 pieces are stupid fun and funny to run lol
It is and it's even better now! Farm this Sacrilgeous Soul ring from reg or tormented Varshan (next to the tree of whispers). You'll need malignant hearts and stygian stones for tormented Varshan.
Im actually working on a build that uses the minion's and corps explosion and the shadow Aura aspect. it's a very interesting interaction 🤣 I call it the bubble wrap build build because the enemy pops and makes a pop sound lol
How to you acquire the +skills on the items? Are you just getting lucky and finding items with +skeletal mastery or can you alter and add that stat to items?
Cant wait to try it, finally have some similar gear with all the affixes, tempering and aspects. Spent all morning farming gear. Its no where close to what you have but cant wait to have some fun with it.
Why do you keep calling AoD a 200% multiplier. It says it's an adder, is the item description wrong? I am currently trying to build into Locran's and Grandfather. Any thoughts going "crit" there? I feel like I am missing aspects with Shako, Tyrael, GF and Locran's. Also, trying to have Mendeln, which now gives ranks to all 3 minion masteries.
So you say no Uber uniques and then have a Uber unique chest in your build on the web site. Also do I follow what you are saying in the video or on the web site, they don’t match.
Would Grandfather be good for this build if you focus more on crit and crit damage and run bonestorm instead of army of the dead for the extra 20% crit. I feel necro pretty much need to have bone storm for higher content they are just paper :( Also i see you run blood begets blood but you dont have any way to spawn blood orbs :(
@Virsbopappan this guys build kinda wack ngl I use golem and the minons are support not damage. My golem hits 500 mil+ frequently and army of dead gives 100% bonus damage
Excellent build! I will be recommending this one to our viewers who want a more mage focused build! I managed to come up with an invincible tank summoner that utilizes Mendeln, all summons, and a doombringer! T7’s are a breeze without safety concern.
Hello there and thank you for the build. I wonder if someone has a paragon board updated for this build because the one showed in the link has things that don't relay in this case, for example the legendary node Blood Begets Blood ... Thank you in advance, have a great day...
Amazing, thank you for taking your time to make this amazing video, I was wondering, should I aim for crit damage or crit chance on my rings and such or what gear pieces should have crit damage or chance?
Nooooo, it’s not working, I kept on running out on essence, w my chest and boots max on essences. I plus everything to 8. Keep on dying in hordes 4, not enough essences. THIS BUILD IS A FAILED FOR ME.
Just came across this channel today brother! Awesome stuff! Watched your older video about sever, great stuff! Keep it up! Everyone is posting the same meta builds and it's getting old. Watching you make other builds viable is great! Keep up the excellent content! Your bud with the Druid builds is great to! Cheers from Newfoundland Canada!
I prefer your bloodsurge build for giga clear even though the boss dmg isn’t the greatest. Nice and smooth one button build for infernal hoardes. Also build link seems broken.
"Easily" when your getting chunked super hard in tier 7, dont play minions in the infernal hordes unless you wanna get slapped super hard the majority of the time. - from a minion player
Whenever I hear someone say I have to Spam something continually to make a build functional, I cringe. Still, kudo's for getting a minion build this far.
Worst paragon and skill tree "effort" I have ever seen. Just a couple of examples of how terrible this is: the build specs into some blood orb skills, yet he doesn't even take Transfusion. He wastes massive paragon points getting health pot upgrades. I could go on and on but definitely ignore this clown.
Your build on mobalytics has terrible explanation after resetting my paragon and skill tree copying yours I read the how to play section and you mention using bone storm which isn’t even in your build
Everything in the video and guide doesn't actually match, what a total jebait of a video. Stuff like this where you are going to lead people into having builds that don't actually function isn't helping people.
Goblin Inc. started as a decent RUclips channel for D4 druid information but it consistently puts out videos with planners that significantly differ from the videos. At this point, Goblin Inc. is a clickbait channel. Zero integrity. They just put out content, get the views, and then abandon it to move onto the next upcoming video with "BEST EVARRRRR BUILD!!!!!!" title and AI generated thumbnails.
It doesn't match but the build does work, even without Tyraels Might. I just finished testing, but I took the other perk for tendrils (blood orbs) since there is a node that gives more damage after picking up a certain amount.
I've been running a thorns minion build, only unique you need is razor plate & make sure you have needleflare in your neck slot because if it procs on one minion it procs across them all, this means it will be procing thorns as a map wide aoe constantly across the entire battlefield if you max it.

can i copy it?
been waiting for mobalytics build update on this build. what youre showing and whats on the build planer don't match up
I tried playing a non-minion build and my fingers dislike it. I'm 71 yrs old. YOur build looks very good as I can see. ty vm
The unique item Ring of the Sacrilegious Soul will help out with this. It will automatically raise a skeleton every second as long as it's on your hot bar.
nice! thank you. i feel like this is the first minion build ive seen someone put out this season.
is the link in the description old or something? lots of missing things in the planner and other stuff that don't line up with what is shown in the video....
Yeah I noticed wtf
@@CrunchDaddy Dude jacked last season's build and is playing it off for this season for the views.
It appears that way. There aren't any blood orb aspects to proc Blood Begets Blood.
@@apdrizzle can u link original? the guide he linked is half baked
Hi there, you have blighted on the gloves in the written build guide but you use the one that drains essence (great Feast) in the video? Are you still updating your build in mobylitics? Not sure what to go for here but I'm guessing its the feast one?
yes please update this on mobalytics thanks
Why take the legendary node, Blood Begets Blood if there aren't any blood orbs in this build?
Yes, just take Wither and Dragging Shadows instead of that shit. At least you get bonus damage because they stack nicely with Blighted Aspect. This guy is probably just copying that build, and even the Mobalytics/GG page isn't his and outdated.
or its even better to take culler in Flesh eater board i think for ult dmg
aspect of the embalmer on pants from moba build, and your reapers flesh chance. without it you dont generate jack shit for resources if you dont have essence regen
I wish there was an aspect that just said "the skeleton priest buff is always active", spamming summon skellies is kinda boring
Sacrilegius ring auto cast priest, corpse tendrils and corpse explosion
@@guidobettinsoli87 yea but that's a unique ring, and you need a corpse
@@CookeiCutter but the buff lasts for 6 seconds and if you get the best stat on ring it auto does it every 6 seconds so long as there is a corpse
mouse macro time
@@GukleFlamebeard also can use caps lock as a key and press it one time, or use a elite controller for macro binding with a key binding prog :D
Do you have advice on a LVL 80 minion based necro build? I feel like that's the way I want to go but my build is currently all over the place. Thank you!
The 200% increased damage on the 2h weapon, says it's + (additive) not X (multiplicative)... do you know if it's really multiplicative?
Just out of curiosity, semi new to D4. Naturally went with Necro. Found a Ring of Mendeln, and Howl from Below. Played that build FOREVER, they compliment each other so well an with darkness Corpse Explosion seeking ppl is hilarious lol
But is the Aphotic Aspect still “bugged” on Xbox? 💁♂️ lol
Just curious before I farm a whole new set of equipment for this alt build lol
Things are dying fast, I’m just not sure if it’s proc’ing that badly. I’ll double check this evening.
Did find a sacrilegious ring as well. Those 3 pieces are stupid fun and funny to run lol
What mythic uniques are best in slot for season 5 minions build for either golem or mages ? Army of the dead doesn’t feel strong this season .
what's the difference with a minion and summoner build?
I ran my s4 minions build last night. My cooldowns were nit going down as fast as before, are you sure aphotic wasn’t fixed?
Your cooldowns were coming from bugged reapers which Was fixed
I was really hoping that wasn’t patched.
@@nickmanno5731 would u say it's still viable
@@legendariano4303 yes minions are still quite strong , I would say probably A tier
It definitely fixed. My ultimate isn’t cool down fast anymore.
Tried to do this build today. Did they change aspect of Re-animation? Did they remove mages attacking twice chance?
No they did not remove it. It is still there you can only put it on your weapons now an your focus
So the build in the description is incorrect or is it just me ?
I feel forced to play with the auto cast ring , pressning raise skele gets boring real fast
Is the auto-cast ring still in the game I haven't seen it this season
It is and it's even better now! Farm this Sacrilgeous Soul ring from reg or tormented Varshan (next to the tree of whispers). You'll need malignant hearts and stygian stones for tormented Varshan.
You could use a one-handed weapon, and on the second weapon, you could use the aspect you couldn't use because of the auto-cast ring. :)
Im actually working on a build that uses the minion's and corps explosion and the shadow Aura aspect. it's a very interesting interaction 🤣 I call it the bubble wrap build build because the enemy pops and makes a pop sound lol
Thanks so much for the build.
Why does aphotic specifically say warriors, but it also works on mages? i dont get why it doesnt also say mages
How to you acquire the +skills on the items? Are you just getting lucky and finding items with +skeletal mastery or can you alter and add that stat to items?
The stuff not matching I tried it anyways to see if I was wrong have a rough time t4 horde, I went back to my burst golem and finished t6 horde
Need a lot rng and money to put this exactly Skeleton Magé mastery affix :/
Is the golem considered "minion?, I was thinking minion thorn build, does any damage multiple effect thorn damage?
can you update this to fit endgame please?
Im confused, the build notes say this falls way behind bone spear in end game
Bone spirit, and yes all the other necro builds fall short of it.
This build was made to showcase something other than bone spirit.
just saw your build late to the season while farming for peices i got a grandfather could i use that with this build also?
Update the build guide please. Clicking through youtube video paragon is killing me.
Me to. It's hard for me to figure out the paragon. Help please
shorturl.at/AOCa6
@@shavonreiss2873i did everthing but have 55 points left and i cant tell were he put the rest lol
@Golin Inc. Got any advice for a shademist builds? Or a video for one? Or is it still bugged beyond belief? Thanks!
the link to the build planner seems to be broken. :(
shouldn't hellbent commander gove pur minions 30% crit chance in total? and how to you spawn blood orbs for the paragon leg node?
Did they fix the aphodic aspect yet?
Cant wait to try it, finally have some similar gear with all the affixes, tempering and aspects. Spent all morning farming gear. Its no where close to what you have but cant wait to have some fun with it.
why not put occult dominion on ur amulet and get a 50% boost to the # of minions?
Why do you keep calling AoD a 200% multiplier. It says it's an adder, is the item description wrong? I am currently trying to build into Locran's and Grandfather. Any thoughts going "crit" there? I feel like I am missing aspects with Shako, Tyrael, GF and Locran's. Also, trying to have Mendeln, which now gives ranks to all 3 minion masteries.
Is blood lance good this season? Can you farm tier 7/8 efficiently with it? If so, can you post build? Thanks!
blood lance is good this season
Bro, just for you information, the description of the tempered affixes from rings and necklace in the planner are missing! 😉
yeah like always
the abhorrant decrepify seems broken, i have that and reapers with cooldowns and it doesnt tick down ever.
So you say no Uber uniques and then have a Uber unique chest in your build on the web site. Also do I follow what you are saying in the video or on the web site, they don’t match.
It's not his build page, and the uber uniques aren't needed because if you use them, you'll need to optimize a ton of shit.
Would Grandfather be good for this build if you focus more on crit and crit damage and run bonestorm instead of army of the dead for the extra 20% crit.
I feel necro pretty much need to have bone storm for higher content they are just paper :(
Also i see you run blood begets blood but you dont have any way to spawn blood orbs :(
the link on the build is broken?
This what I like to seeeeee. Mages still dominating
I am curious about the thorn minions build from season 4.
I tried Life on hit but it only heal the minion on their hit not the nec, so is it really good to have it? :/
Whats best between this build and Blood Surge only focused on farming T8 Hordes? I suppose its BS but i wanna hear it from the Necroking :’)
Blood surge is basically immortal lol definitely that but minion build is so universal it's better idc ehat anyone says
@@carldarley6026 Thanks for your response! To me, minions look more fun than just spam 1 button 24/7, so i think i’ll go for that :)

missing the description of the rings and paste in the planner
Ring if starlight skies work with greater feast ? It should be proc the 50% damage so 150%
No ring of mendeln or ring of sacrilegious soul?
Excellent build! I will be recommending this one to our viewers who want a more mage focused build!
I managed to come up with an invincible tank summoner that utilizes Mendeln, all summons, and a doombringer! T7’s are a breeze without safety concern.
id like to see ur build plz
@@dadbodonfleek9501I’ll have a video out soon. I don’t want to advertise stuff on a dude I respect’s channel tho.
post build plz

Is there a season 5 update?
Hello there and thank you for the build. I wonder if someone has a paragon board updated for this build because the one showed in the link has things that don't relay in this case, for example the legendary node Blood Begets Blood ... Thank you in advance, have a great day...
Amazing, thank you for taking your time to make this amazing video, I was wondering, should I aim for crit damage or crit chance on my rings and such or what gear pieces should have crit damage or chance?
Yo guys, read a webnovel based on this game and loved it.
Is it fun to play as well?
Why the hell didn't you show all your paragon boards
Is it redundant to go beyond 100% chance for mages (or any projectile) to cast twice?
Yes.
@@jaytothezor I thought so. Thanks!
Will you Update the written Build? Its obviously not correct.
Nooooo, it’s not working, I kept on running out on essence, w my chest and boots max on essences. I plus everything to 8. Keep on dying in hordes 4, not enough essences. THIS BUILD IS A FAILED FOR ME.
This Build need to much rng with affixs. :/
How do I reach 100% AS without using Kalans Edict?
hi can you me please show all paragon on this video?

Dude if you have everything masterworked to 12 and perfect Tempers literally any build can crush rofl
I cant seem to get the cooldown to work for army of the dead has this been patched?
or is it to do with lucky hits?
Can you take a video of the paragon tree please. I am having a very hard time with that. Huge fan of yours. Thank you
I’m running Mendeln and sacrilegious so far it’s pretty fun
With this build?
There is no link
Nice , 🎉 ty
Were can i look at your builds? Its hard to watch your video to copy paragon board.
there is a build link in the video description
Um there is a link in the description
Going to level my necro as this! Keep putting good stuff, don't sweat the build copiers 🙂
Your build guide literally is last seasons
i cant access your link for the build
Can be possibile doing a build mignons mixed with blood surge? Any tips?
"Easily" when your getting chunked super hard in tier 7, dont play minions in the infernal hordes unless you wanna get slapped super hard the majority of the time. - from a minion player
haha i agree :D but tho its still psble with a friend :D im duo with barbarian and i don't die
Would ring of starless skies be good for this build?
No
Well yea actually the stats is really good with what you need crit chance and attack speed and spamming anything that uses resources
it scales your minion damage 5 times providing required stats as well it's great
Could you update or not?
Try getting a better occult dominion afffix! Maximum is 3 not two additonal mages/warriors!
I use corpse explosion
Is this all you do ? Hear gear, it says no Uber gear. Then show all the Uber gear
No Corpse Explosion
The link is outdated
I agree
Imagine minions can proc tyriel might. Be so good
Tyreals isn’t ever used for those projectiles tho.
tyraels might projectiles have no scalars and low base damage so they basically deal no damage
Whenever I hear someone say I have to Spam something continually to make a build functional, I cringe. Still, kudo's for getting a minion build this far.
Idk my golem hits 500 mil i dont see your build out dps that
Bro hi, can u give ur build ?
@Nemo_karal1993 this build is better than mine it just doesn't out dps golem like he said it did
It really makes no sense not getting golem.
thanks
Idk if Goblin realizes he's creating viewers who wont watch his content because the build links never match up.
