My clear of the Capstone tier 4 dungeon on my Necromancer at level 64.

The dungeon is very weird tho, I noticed at the start that the graveyard where you spawn is behind the door to the right, But i picked the door to the left and you can’t open a new once you opened another.

Thus why the cathedrel of flesh part of the video is a bit edited, Since i could not get back to the left when i died… because blocked by the door and i could not open the door because i picked the left path, So i tried to clear the right part first since i kept spawning there if i died.

Any way, Minions did not die at all, Tho i got one shotted a few times, so i guess the shield did not do much.

Last boss was very easy.

… thats tier 3.
but anyway… most people are getting to t4 between 61-66 now. its not a hard boss.

necro looks fun. just standing around and pewpewpewpew because everybody ignores you.

4

It is the capstone to unlock tier 4.

5

your minions hit with 490 and such stuff. Yeah they are really really … crap…

The dmg comes from your necro. The people complain about the minions, not the necro itself. But your minions suck too, no way to change that.

6

yes - its the tier3 capstone.

you said tier 4 capstone… which it is not.

7

LOL yeah that was D3. In D4 all mobs ignore your pets and come after you.

8

Yeah, the illusion that they are doing damage kinda wore off after that point.

This minion build was for “Fun” but now that we are at the stage where i have to do the same dungeon 10000 times i need more of an efficiant built instead of a fun one.

I’ll rework some stuff and go 100% shadow dmg soon.

The tier 3 capstone dungeon was earlier than this, after the story at around level 50 or so.

This is the capstone to unlock tier 4.

9

just watch the video.

10

Rest assured, the mobs in D4 will absolutely ignore minions and truck right after you.

11

Yeah I was surprised at how easy both capstones were.

12

Was fun while it lasted at least.

I am now level 70 and after doing like level 64-67 with minions in the farm dungeon, after a while i just realised that i’d do more damage if i just put the focus completely on blight/Corpse explosion i have now changed to fully shadow damage for the XP farm dungeon.

It’s a lot more dmg without the minions, even tho it is less fun.

Hopefully they buff the minions to be viable for Tier 4 at some point

On the plus side, shadow is bugged AF too. None of our dots scale with DoT affix’s on gear or even in our wither paragon tree. Blighted corpse explosion doesn’t scale with shadow but physical for some reason.

14

For f’s sake.

Is the shadow board broken as well? Like the minion board?

Is bone the only working paragon board?

15

At least all the shadow dmg over time nodes are, they do nothing.

16

But i guess every other class has working paragon… Only Necromancer bugged, probably.

Just my luck
