Build Overview

Hit the favorite button if you enjoy this build <3

I also stream everyday on Twitch! So come ask me any questions you may have or come hang out!

Overview

This is a very unique character that combines a few mechanics to create an extremely fast AFK Simulacrum farmer that can also kill Pinnacle Bosses extremely quickly and map as well!

It is a recoup build using Sacrosanctum to recoup ES and does all of its damage through ignite proliferation using Cracklecreep.

How This Build Works

Using Self Immolation and One With Flame we are able to ignite our own character without taking any damage. Combine that with Cracklecreep and our character turns into a walking ball of fire that ignites all enemies around us, making it into a 0 button build after we get our initial burst ignite with Flameblast.

Budget

This is not a starter build. It requires some specific uniques and some equipment that can cost up to 10 Divines. Overall, I would say that we were able to clear all content with ease starting at around a 20-30 Divine investment.

The nice part of this build though is that not many people use Ignite for their damage, so some of the rare items will be fairly cheap.

Can I level with this build?

Leveling with it is extremely clunky and I would not recommend it. I would say you should try to swap to the build at lvl 85 at the earliest. Until then, use Essence Drain and Contagion to level. I would suggest following DEADRABB1T's Build Guide to help with leveling.
