Goblin Inc's Minion Leveling Anihlation

Minions are an incredible leveling build that can transition into its late game faster than any other build in the game. Minions are by far the fastest build to come online.

1. Keep up Decrepify and Skeletal Priest buff
2. Cast Reap to spawn a Corpse
3. Cast Corpse Tendrils on the Corpse
4. Use Soul Rift as needed for big defenses as well as big damage

Minions are probably the strongest starter build in the entire game due to their absurd damage that is generally not reliant on uniques. The Ring of Mendeln is a huge damage scaler once you unlock it, but were able to still do loads of damage without it. Minions come online faster than any other build in the game.

Tips:

• Wear any good legendaries you can find, but the ones recommended here are your best options from the Codex of Power
• Spend all of your Helltides, Tree of Whispers, and Obals rolling rings trying to get a Ring of Mendeln
• If you get any strong Shadow Damage Aspects you can use them to buff up your Skeletal Mage damage.

Defense

The most important defensive tool in your kit is Soulrift. You need to get as much uptime as possible by tempering on Soulrift duration and rolling as much Cooldown Reduction as possible. It's also very important to cap your resistances and armor as quickly as you can.

Offensive Power

This build relies heavily on the incredible base damage of minions to carry it. As you get into the mid game though you will start investing heavily into the Golem with Fel Gluttony aspect allowing him to do immense amounts of damage.
