The purpose of this build is to combine incredible toughness, with a strong condition presence.
_____________________
Traits

  • 0/10/30/30/0
  • Curses – VI
  • Death Magic – II, VIII, XI
  • Blood Magic – II, V, VII

Equipment

  • 6 Runes of the Undead
  • Shaman’s Amulet
  • Staff (Sigil of Venom)
  • Scepter and Dagger (Both with Sigils of Corruption)

Utilities

  • Consume Conditions
  • Bone Minions
  • Shadow Fiend
  • Plague Signet (Or Corrupt Boon, or Well of Power)
  • Flesh Golem

Primary Stats

  • 2,189 Toughness
  • 1,040 Condition Damage (1,290 With full corruption boons)
  • 21,372 Vitality

The main playstyle of this is to play like any normal Conditionmancer, but to use your Minions to build up the conditions the opponents stack on them using the Plague Signet, and then eat all of the conditions for health, send them back (twice), or simply keep pulling them to support teammates.

It’s a hybrid build I’ve recently tested in 3 tournaments against above average players. It shined significantly in group fights, but was difficult to master in 1v1s against opponents with heavy CC.

Hope you enjoy and can improve upon this rough build.

I tried something like this on my own. It was hard deciding which skills to to replace with minions, but it seemed to do really good damage. Nice job on making this one though. Minion/Condition hybrids are really rare it seems, and I’d say mainly because the build is pretty hard to make. Too many options.

I’m gonna give this one a try later on. And again, nice job.

Minion hybrids with anything are fairly rare because the “standard” (20/0/30/20/0) minion build with power gear is just a really obvious build path, and it works, so no one tries to experiment further. Build looks interesting, at the very least it would be fun.

I dare to explore, Bhawb. I hate meta builds.

I love for people to explore, I just rarely do with minions since I’ve basically been using the same minion build since the 2nd to last BWE and every other one I try just feels… wrong.

By the way, the 3 builds that I’ve posted are merely 3 viable ones that I recently came up with. I have 34 builds in total that I’ve theory crafted, and out of the 34, 22 are viable in tPvP.

Man I have been loving MM builds recently. If I could just get those dang bone minions to move a little quicker, it’d be sick. Thanks for the cool build.
