This build is a game-changer! 🧛‍♂️🩸🔥

Introduction

I have always been a huge fan of bloodlands builds but until this season, I never felt it was a top-tier build. However, this season has proven me wrong and I am excited to share my findings with you.

Top Tier Blood Lance Build

• AOE Damage
• Incredibly tanky build
• Surprisingly better than expected

"He's never felt something so scandalously discreet!"

Unique Chest Piece

The unique chest piece in this build fortifies us for 2% of our life every time we cast the bloodlands, spawns a 5% blood orb, and provides a 20% damage multiplier. However, it has some drawbacks in terms of weak stats and defensive aspects.

Bloodlands stats:

• Fortify: 2% of life
• Blood Orb: 5%

Handcrafted Jewelry

Skulls in the jewelry provide resistance. Despite not having resistances in the jewelry, hitting resistance cap is still achievable due to the Paragon and armor benefits.

Resistance Cap:

• Achievable with Paragon and armor
• 750 armor in total

Bossing Setup

By replacing blood lances with other aspects and weapons, the damage increase is tremendous for bossing, though AOE damage is reduced.

Core of Build Works

• Reap and Acolytes
• Blood Lance and Supernatural Lance
• Attack speed and AOE damage

Skill Tree

The skill tree focuses on key skills for damage, survivability, and increased movement speed.

Skills:

• Reaper Pursuit
• Amplify Damage
• Corpse Explosion

Book of the Dead

Running skirmishers, bone Mages, Golem, and various other aspects provide significant damage and crit multiplier benefits.

Paragon Board

• Essence
• Corporeal
• Blood Bath

Tips and Tricks

• Keep up decrepify
• Always make sure to reap at the start of a pack
• Keep all buffs up and running

Pro Tip: "Hold down blood LS and kill everything as long as you're ramped!"

Conclusion

This new Gatling Gun Blood Lance build for the Diablo 4 Necromancer is an absolute game-changer. By strategically utilizing unique items, skills, and jewelry, this build offers exceptional survivability and incredible damage output for both AOE and bossing. Try it out and see the power for yourself! 🎮
