Gameplay, my Gear, T4 Xesht + DMG Tech ------------------------>

==========================================================

In this Lich build we are going to use:

1. Bonestorm to deal with bosses and especially tough rares.

2. Bone Cage + Detonate Dead CoC setup to clear screens comfortably.

This setup with provide great clear together with decent single target damage. With Lich survivability on top the gameplay should feel pretty simple, comfortable and satisfying.

Set 2

Equipment Priority

Body

Sacramental Robe

Amulet

Bloodstone Amulet

Wand and Focus :

Level of All Physical / Level of All Spell skills is an absolute priority for Lich.

Getting cast speed + critical hit chance is also pretty important for both damage and QoL.

Helmet:

Atziri's Disdain is still the best helmet because of the survivability it can provide. You can corrupt it for additional spirit or for double sockets to help with resistances.

Body Armour:

Here we just need resistances and as high Energy shield as possible.

Boots:

Triple resistances are necessary because this Lich build is very res hungry. Movement Speed is also mandatory as usual.

Gloves:

Nightscale is a great option that can improve mana regeneration while you are fighting. Get a corrupted version with + sockets to improve resistances if needed.

Jewelry:

Amulet can provide Cast Speed, +2 Levels of Spell Skills and Spell Damage. So try to focus on offensive stats there.

Seed of Cataclysm is a great option for BOTH rings to improve our damage further and reach 100% crit chance. Make sure to use Caster Catalysts at both of them.

IF YOU CANT MANAGE RESISTANCES - USE 1 RARE RING (!!!)

Belt:

Just use any triple resistance belt. If you can get Life there it will be even better.

Jewels:

Prism of Belief with additional levels to Bonestorm can help with bossing significantly. Additional levels to Bone Cage or Detonate Dead can help with clear if you need it.

For the rest of the jewels, aim for critical hit chance and critical damage + spell damage.

Put the best one into Crystalline Phylactery

Run charm against Freeze or Slows.

Since build is very mana hungry you will also need to use a very good mana flask too so aim for more mana recovered + mana removed from Life.

Bone Cage

Bonestorm

Cast on Critical

Convalescence

Sigil of Power

Orb of Storms

Gem Priority

+20

IMPORTANT - YOU NEED TO CLICK MANA FLASK AT THE START OF EVERY FIGHT IF YOU ARE OUT OF MANA BECAUSE OF THE DRAIN FROM Necromantic Conduit and Nightscale

Drop Necromantic Conduit if you dislike the mana management (will be less DPS).

==========================================================

We are using Bone Cage as a main skill while clearing, together with Cast on Critical with Detonate Dead to cover the whole screen. Just spam your Bone Cage to pin enemies and clear the screen in the set of satisfying explosions.

For single target and bosses - change Cast on Critical to Blasphemy and spam Bonestorm until target is defeated.

For Bonestorm you can replace Execute with Deliberation if you prefer it.

Spirit Reservation & Weapon Swap (Important!):

Set Orb of Storms to the second weapon set.

CoC vs Blasphemy:

Cast on Critical will improve your clearing so use it while you are mapping. For harder boss encounters and especially Pinnacles it is safer to use Blasphemy with Enfeeble or Temporal Chains inside.
