Life Stacking Tornado Inquisitor Build Update | Path of Exile: Necropolis 

I think it's fair to say that Necropolis hasn't been my favourite league, and my enjoyment of the league is wearing a bit thin by now. I'll likely be playing less from this point, but I still have some fun videos planned, including some new additions to the Build Overview series What are your thoughts on Necropolis now that we're over 5 weeks in?

I was gonna quit the league, so i bought a single Apothecary and i gambled with harvest. Well... now i have my first mageblood. Guess im gonna be playing just a bit more.

Damn I did NOT think you were going to get that sceptre on HC

Been waiting on this one 😁

I'm enjoying the league just because Mageblood was cheap enough that I got it with enough time and energy left to play with it some. First time ever in PoE that's happened for me.

I am taking the week off necropolis. I do enjoy every single aspect of Necropolis to be honest. The crazy farms I did with allflames, the crazy crazy crazy crafting. I mean a former mirror tier item now, 5-50div, depending on the item. A 1700 edps sword for 8div. Just insane! And I love it. I will see if I can cook a total mene build. And I mean total meme. Maybe I will actually use ward as a defensive layer, or go full fortify and see if I can reach 50 fortify. Or maybe I might even try to make the meme viable. 😅 Riposte, chain hook, something super meme ish. The gear is here, time to make it work Maybe general's cry with chain hook.

I'm with you on your journey. I'Ve seen your first video and instantly changed onto my old miserably failed tornado hierophant and switched my build to yours. So I'm very interested in what you come up with for further scaling. I'm not sure about Dark Seer though, as my wand is giving me more damage currently than the dark seer. Currently sitting at 1.3 million DPS and 32k phys max hit. Still trying to fix my chaos resistance

I'm still enjoying Necropolis, but I'm fairly new to PoE. This is my fourth league and I still have a lot of fun trying to cook up silly builds. At the moment, I'm working on a Soulwrest autobomber, which I don't know if it has legs or not. It might just be a worse version of Wardloop. I've been trying to grab a proper build creator's attention for a day or two now, because the gameplay is basically the same as the Dark Marionette build from last league. It needs to be optimized more, but in theory you could have 21 phantasms exploding every second (or faster) and the AoE can pretty easily get close to or larger than 3m.

Great build showcase! Yeah necro wasb't for me either love all the reworks done (yes including the brutal t17 mods because of the huge use for chaos and controlling the divine prices) but I hate how a small group of people have been able to abuse lots of buggy issues and take over the market so it's time for a break for me. Great showcase though as it gives me lots of ideas on what I would love to play next league!

Have you thought to use Burden of Shadows Staff? I Low key wanna try Chieftan STR stacker + Iron Will + Burden of Shadows setup but dont have exact idea in my head

I've enjoyed the league overall, but moreso for things like the triple atlas trees, the available builds, some of the scarabs, etc. The league mechanic is half and half for me. I do actually enjoy the allflame system, but the graveyard is boring and tedious. I've had such little interaction with it, but I have enjoyed reaping the rewards with cheap gear. Overall far from the best, but still enjoyable and I do plan on still playing for a little while as there a couple more builds I want to try out.

Will you eventually try to craft an 8-link RF helm using fractured influence mods in the Graveyard, or is Crest of Desire BiS?

have you considered maybe a sacrifice support for extra scaling on the build? Possibly with some good spell/elemental leech you could probably safely use it i think

is it possible to make petrified blood progenesis mumbojumbo in this build? defiance destiny for never die again?

What bosses can you do on this build?

would like to try a pathfinder with 100% phys taken conversion life stacker with the new body armour

@dreamcore -- What do you think of this combination of things: Rathpith Globe > Necromantic Aegis Warlords Call > Battlemage's cry Minions that attack

how did you manage to use the timeless jewel calculator with out getting rate limited 900x. did they make it where you could pick hc trade link?

First league Ive got a mageblood need to earn like 100+ div more to get my transcendence chief built. Getting there, I farmed like 9 div yesterday in 3 hours, hopefully I find a Strat that pays me more lol

SSF has made necropolis a pain for me. Attempted multiple phys bows and they keep rolling flat or %ele even with 3-4k scarce. Constantly farming Mod Tier corpses, and scarce mana/life, which seem very rare, has been the biggest hurdles. Since I use standard SSF as a character/item collection room, I did make a few GG items for past characters though. Mahjong has been taking up my game time instead for awhile now.

Yeah HC Trade started dropping off a lot in the past week or so. Too many people ripped their 100's in t17s and desided to not rerol or rerol SC. From now on getting specific gear will be difficult. I'm probably still going to play, but much less, and mostly do some meme builds for fun.

I don't like new OP crafting, but in pretty much everything else league was (and IS, power syphon inquisitor is possibly the best build i ever done) great imo.

At start i will tell that changing maven inv to not drop but to just go to kirac is so good changing scarabs and get rid off sextants was also great idea. Scarabs need a little buf and nerfs but i can close my eyes on it. Changing arch mage 11/10 even if i feel like mana build are weak still buff archmage was great idea. Nerfed tornado shot yes at last. breach hands auto open good but still hope for getting splinters at the end of breach so i dont need to pick every fragment's by myself. Exping Strategy by shrine is nice but in my opinion GGG should change it like not get 30% more exp for EVERY shrine buffs on you they could change it you get idk 60% if you got any shrine buffs on you it will still be nice amount that helps player but it will not allow player to level up from 68-95 in 30-50 min. League is bad the economy was broke since they start farming t17 then GGG fix it then another op strategy come out then market one more time break. After that t0 unique was cheap. Finding and picking up corpses is so bad like you cant even filter out worthless corpse from maps. Selling corpeses is good only in bulk and even if you do you get like 10 ch per 1. Afterflames open another way to exploit more currency (like 3% for divine orb or rogue exiles afterflame) or another ill gamebreaking strategy so prices went low again. After that there is no point playing anymore on tradeleague. BUT! For ssf this league looks much better. You dont need to farm expedition to get currency you can craft most items just by league mechanic. So pretty much as if I were to judge it as a whole league is not bad 7/10 or 7,5/10 but only if you dont consider trade. Let's say it loud GGG couldn't handle new t17with league mechanics because of that market brick. Also t17 are supposed to be middle ground between Bosses and Uber bosses. It didnt work also those maps is unbalanced to the point that i would fight uber without much problem but on this maps you cant like to fight ubers you dont need to be even tanky you just go and try to oneshot ubers and 99% of ubers attack you can dodge with your movement or skills. In t17 mobs with ridiculus amount of dmg rush at you and you just die even if you are tanky enought you will find rare mob with 400% more dmg than any others and you cant compleate maps because he got ambush and haste mod on top of that. Drop rate and division of items from bosses and uber is also kinda good and kinda bad it's pretty hard to tell how to exacly fix it. Maybe like this you got fragments for uber like now but the ubers got more % chance to drop their items so you still can run normal bosses because you still need to kill them to get special fragment of pass to ubers and you still can sell it so noone is losing. I mean it's logical for uber to have more % chance to find items no? Then items like dying sun would not be more expensive than HH but still it would be worth enought to get decent money for selling it. Crafting by corpses is nice but that triple fractured mods or perfect ele bow is so unhealthy also in my opinion cementry is to big that's why we need to spend like 2h just for buying corpses to fill it full then we need to place tons of corpses it's another 30 min then we cant make any mistakes on top of that we need to know exacly what we need to put and where it's to unclear for me and most players and i know how to craft a fair amount of items. The only good thing is that this league rewards are so ugly that i dont even feel sad to not play and doing 38 challanges. I was hoping for ascendencary changes. In my opinion last league give us to much currency and t0 so economy was bad but i liked last league much more and this league offer us more t0 and op rare items crafted by corpses so everything is wortless not because we got to much currency but we got to much items. At the end i can tell idk i feel like GGG since they started to show poe 2 their league start to be a little less polished. idk how to name it better maybe it's only me or not tell me guys your opinions or maybe i forgot about something.

if crest of desire isnt expensive u can 3 vendor recept to get new .. i do that with ventors gameble its basicly free divine roll... item lvl matters i try to set lowest price in filter than click on item lvl and buyout bunch of high lvl uniques for cheap and "free divine rool :D" them untill i get best roll and hit vaal and pray :D thx for vid and stay healty :D

Going ssf has revitalized the league a bit for me. IDK how long that will last. I'm having trouble staying motivated on it already :/ But, necropolis just... isn't fun? The league mechanic offers a ton of player power in the most frustrating and unfun ways. Scarabs feel like a failure because it forces you into just one mechanic per atlas tree (though trees are fantastic). t17s also feel like a failure.

I have basically quit this league, I've had terrible luck, my builds have been bad and I have not enjoyed the mechanic. Also Helldivers 2 is super fun lol

Just hit 1k hours. League don’t matter I’m still playing 8 hours a day 😂

Personally it feels like if you are not doing T17 meta farms, you are missing out on a buttload of currency. There is little to no incentive staying in anything lower than T17s. Really hope they balance out the endgame next league to a point where most of the strats are at-least close to each other in terms of rewards. Again this is my opinion of the league and I am sure there are others who enjoyed the league.

i mentally quit the league since week 1 as the crafting mechanic is just unfun and time consuming. Great for SSF or mirror tier gear for those that engage with it. However, I am still playing the league because the base game is just so good right now. Espeically, having 3 Atlas loadouts to flesh out strats that go with my build.

I have a unreasonable amount of currency. I want to take this build, and crank it up to 11 Give me some ideas. If you had limitless funds, what would you do? I don't know how to build craft. But I know how to craft, and acquire the funds to get the gear that I don't want to craft

Still playing the league but I am just trying to reach my goal of getting level 100. Ngl, the league feels pretty stale at this point already.

Personally I'm surprised there isn't more negativity around PoE considering how bad the retention numbers for Necrop are. During Kalandra you woulda thought the world was ending. A bit of Affliction hangover was inevitable, but my bigger fear is players are getting complacent. Ziz rated Necrop an 8/10 which is just insane to me. If the message GGG gets is "players like unbalanced systems" I fear for the worst. That said I'm glad you and others are still enjoying the league. Nice to see some whacky build ideas pushed to absurd levels.

Im not enjoying this league very much and it's forced difficulty. I ripped my lvl 95 necro and I cant get motivation to reroll

The item progression was way too fast, this league you could min/max a build with insane gear in a matter of days. I definitely prefer a bit of a slower progression. After a few days of mapping I'd have the corpses to pump out a 6t1 melee weapon, so it was fun having such easy access to perfect gear but it just makes the progression end a bit too early for my liking. With how OP corpse crafting is I'm sure it's just another borrowed power league that absolutely will not go core. Which I'm certainly getting a little tired of that as well.

The league mechanic is absolut dogwater but the base game (excluding t17‘s and their uber boss frags especially) is super good atm

ive seen people with 37k life on poeninja

Quited

my interest in the league just aint there

This is by dar the worst league I recall since I have started plating the game again around 4 years ago. Horrible mechanics, horrible state of bossing (at least for me this is the most enjoyable thing to do), the horrible domination of MF with HH continues, the ascendencies did not get any changes, the underplayed skills did not get any changes. The T17 must be the biggest miss though to lock uber boss fights behind those super poorly balanced maps was absolutely horrendous decision. I am wondering why they invest so much time in so horrible mechanics and do not balance underused skills. Super simple mechanics like delirium (excluding the cluster jewels), are great for the game, they add currency in exchange for difficulty, can add some uniques and, if combined with a bunch of balance changes can be the best thing the game has seen for a while
