Build Overview
This build takes full advantages of Skeletal Arsonist and buffs them up to do insane amounts of damage. We are also able to achieve fantastic levels of survivability through
Altered Flesh. This build is fantastic for all forms of content as it has great boss damage and great AOE damage.
This is an end game build, if you're looking for a leveling build then check out my leveling build!
Equipment










Most of your damage is coming from you Scepter, helmet minion ranks, and chest spirit.
For defense the most important stats are going to be resistances. Try to get fire resistance cap on your shield.
On your necklace you will get a massive survivability boost if you get Heatproofing via the Distilled Emotions.

For your ascendency get Beidat's Hand before
Beidat's Will. You will have plenty of damage but you need the tankiness.
If you are feeling too squishy remove points from Left Hand of Darkness and instead put them into
Melding near the start of the tree.
How it Plays
The gameplay is a bit different when mapping than when fighting bosses. In both cases you want to keep up Pain Offering and
Flame Wall as much as possible. However in aoe you will be spamming
Detonate Dead while against bosses you will just keep up
Flammability. Keep in mind that
Malice is an incredible aura from your Scepter, so try to stay relatively close to enemies to maintain the buff.
How it Works
This build relies on destroying enemy resistances with a combination of Flammability and Fire Exposure which massively increases the damage of your
Skeletal Arsonist. Make sure your
Skeletal Arsonist are always throwing their grenades through
Flame Wall and keep up
Pain Offering as much as possible.
Defensively we are making incredible use of Altered Flesh in multiple ways. The first is with the conversions of Cold and Lightning to Fire damage, which then allows us to stack Maximum Fire Resistance and mitigate a huge amount of damage. We are also able to get
Heatproofing on our amulet to reduce the damage even further. In terms of Physical Damage, we make great use of armor by converting 20% of Physical Damage to Chaos Damage, and then our
Summon Infernal Hound absorbs another 20% of the damage. This means our Armour is only being applied against about 60% of the damage, allowing it to heavily mitigate incoming damage even with low amounts of Armour.
