Build Overview

Golem Necromancer rises as one of the strongest and most reliable builds in Season 11!
With the new Gravebloom mace, this build now commands three Golems that tear through enemies with terrifying efficiency.
To make that work, hold down Golem, pull everything with Corpse Tendrils, and let your stone hulks smash it all.

If you find Heir of Perdition or Shroud of False Death you can equip them right away. Having both let you swap to Endgame Mythic build.
Whenever you change your helmet, also swap runes to use Wat because you won't have Aspect of the Cursed Aura anymore. Decrepify is needed at all times.

Cooldown Reduction is one of the most important stat for your skill rotation. Attack speed and Crit Chance also works too well to be ignored.

Masterworking (MW) enhances an item's stats. Each MW rank boosts all affixes by 1%, up to 25 ranks. Fully Masterworking an item now gives a 50% upgrade to a random affix, which can be a Tempering Affix. The boosted affix will be colored differently to highlight it.

Use the Masterworking menu at the Blacksmith. You can reset the final Masterwork, so feel free to reroll it until you hit one of the recommended stats for the extra 50% bonus.

This Paragon is getting right to strong point for the T1-T4, but you can swap to the EndGame board once you have more than 110 paragon points.

Level all your Endgame Glyphs to 15 first, one by one.
Then take each Glyph to 46, also one by one.
Once all of them are 46, you can level them evenly to 100, the order doesn’t really matter at that point. Make sure to unlock all the Legendary Nodes first.

How it Works

Frequently Asked Questions

Progressing from T1 to T4

There’s only one variant for progressing from T1 to T4 because in Diablo 4 you can get all the best gear even in T1. You can usually speed-farm T4 with basic Ancestral gear, even if you only have one Greater Affix.
Most of your damage actually comes from Paragon Points, unlocking the Legendary Nodes gives a huge power spike.

The first thing you want to do is get the requirements to start the build. At this point you’re probably still using your 1-60 leveling setup. Farm some boss materials and kill T1 bosses to get the required Unique, then switch into the build.
Once you have all the requirements to get your build started, it’s time to start farming Pits.
This is the fastest way to level up your Paragon, since Pit completions give the most XP. The optimal strategy is to farm Pits that you can clear in around 3 minutes.
Pit rewards also include Obols, which you can spend at the Purveyor of Curiosities to gamble for Ancestral items to further improve your character.
Farming Paragon levels at this stage is very efficient. Unlocking Legendary Nodes provides a huge power spike, each granting roughly 50–60% increased damage.
You can also run Hordes. It drops Obducite, which is used for Masterworking. At this stage, don’t focus on perfect Masterworks, just aim for steady progression.
Farming boss materials and doing Tormented Bosses like Belial in Torment III is also very worthwhile. There’s no need to wait until Torment IV. Securing Mythic Uniques early is often the key step to unlocking and switching into stronger builds.
Finally, start comparing your gear with the final build setup or an endgame version. This will help you identify which Greater Affixes (GAs) you should aim for as you optimize.
