NecromancerSeason 5 brings us a new and seemingly overpowered aspect for our minions, the Shademist Aspect. This aspect could not be tested on the PTR as it was reworked afterwards, so there is some risk that this exact setup may have some issues, but minion Necro overall should be in a great spot in Season 5 as a fallback.
Shademist deals 25% weapon damage as a shadow aura around EACH minion. When used on a 2 handed weapon, this is doubled to 50%. The build runs 12 permanent minions, and 6 temporary ones from bone prison (yes, each piece of the bone prison counts as a minion). This amounts to a completely absurd amount of passive damage and most importantly, persists through minions being crowd controlled by enemy monsters.
