Slot Changes

Utility

Viable choices for the optional slot include:

  • Well of Darkness - the pulsing Blind Blind and Chill Chill takes pressure off your team. Currently the most popular choice.
  • Corrupt Boon - burst CD that works great against other bunker builds.
  • Summon Flesh Wurm - mobility, escape tool, and minor source of Life Force gain.
  • Trail of Anguish - one of the few sources of Stability Stability Necromancers have access to, this is a strong stun breaker that could also help you get an important cast off right after.

Removing the teleport from transfusion and nerfing relic of rivers has made this build weaker, would recommend taking ritual of life over quickening thirst, and taking the signet of undeath for life force generation and a ranged rez option. You can cover the damage of the signet with barrier in order to keep yourself healthy. At the end of the day, the best part of the build is its rez potential and boon corruption, with the corrupts staying the same you might aswell trait further into increasing the rez power, at the cost of alittle bit of life force generation. Plus if you do decide to drop quickening thirst , you might even consider swapping dagger for sword to gain much needed mobility, and alittle more chill access.

Scourge is once again viable after the reworks. The build brings a ton of barrier sharing, condition cleansing and AoE Alacrity to the team. Fairly easy and forgiving build to play but also very immobile and can be destroyed quickly if multiple power roamer specs gang up on it, so despite all the barrier there are scenarios where it can be vulnerable. Positioning remains important. Some people prefer this to the condi version especially for tournament play while I'm seeing a lot more condi Scourges in ranked. Both are good.

Very good support, very low dps

Seems like people don't know how to give build ratings without being extremists. Unless they completely gut necros, all current builds will be viable. Barrier nerfs didn't hit nearly hard enough, and only after it gets the firebrand treatment will this build ever be 1 star. It has enough utility to mitigate bursts through blinds and weakness. Only downside will be ranged burst

Haters gonna hate but patches like these are never gonna kill scourge. Some barrier nerf is n o t h i n g. Enjoy scourge games until EoD.

Been playing this for necro. While all necro builds are basically good this one doesnt depend on annoying mobility skills and lich memes and has an insanely high power level still. Can tank alot of damage and pull out very nice pressure- great build overall.
