Condition or Minion Reaper?
I used to play with soldier gear before the huge minions buff ( damage reduction ) as they were dying a lot. I’m using zerker MM Reaper now and it’s really a movie monster that never die.
This is my build

I use soul eater for the gs reduction even when Decimate Defenses sounds amazing for zerker builds. Should I swap ?

I would recommend condi reaper/necro based solely on how much I adore condition-based builds… lol.
Having said that, MM(of any stat variety) and condi builds are really really potent atm and both are a great choice.
My only issue with MM builds in pve is water… /sad day
That is a good point! I hadn’t considered water with a MM build. My condi build doesn’t seem to suffer much in water. I don’t spend a lot of time in water, but that would be a vulnerable spot in a MM build.
I think I’m going to stick with my Condition build, but drop the blood magic in favor of the Reaper. I’ll tweak it as I go.
I also dropped BM for reaper and it’s amazing. Dhuumfire becomes a very solid option with reaper shroud autos cleaving quickly.
I honestly wouldn’t suggest condi MM. The weapons and trait lines don’t have very good synergy overall, HOWEVER if you don’t care about “viable” builds then Death Nova makes for a really good condi cheese build using bone minions/jagged horrors.
Reaper MM is solid though, I’d generally say its an improvement over Spite MM, unless you are really attached to the boon removal or base shroud for some reason.

Blood & Death magic minions traits are very important specially for zerker MM build.

Oh I wasn’t suggesting combing condi and MM builds. I already can’t use all the traits I want to for condi already. Haha adding MM to that would be stupid.
