[3.28] Bark Monarch | Spectral Wolves Necro | Map POPS | Good Bosser | 40M+ DPS

Are you having a Ruff day? Or maybe your subWoofer stopped working?
Well if so, this build will fix all the Ruffs and Woofs for you.




------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pros & Cons

+ Explosions
+ Excellent Scaling
+ Excellent Survivability
+ Excellent Clear
+ Chaos Damage
+ Always Moving
+ Extremely High DPS when all Wolves present
+ SHREDS Specific Bosses (Uber Eater/Exarch/Sirus/Cortex, Abomination/Fortress Map)
+ Instantly maxed out wolves in maps

- On a single target, it takes 4-6s to max out 20 Wolves
- Bad against bosses with many phases (Ziggurat, Sirus if you die once, etc.)
- 1 Offering needs to be cast before running a map/boss
- Dying on a Boss feelsbad as you need to resummon wolves


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How does it work?

> Spin to win, Wolves and You automatically gain every offering every 5s
> Hit enemies with Cyclone to generate wolves
> Cast Withering Step during Cyclone
> If super tough enemy, cast Despair, Vaal Haste and Withering Step last

Path of Building - PoB

Use this as much as you can, everything is inside.

Leveling

General tips:

Spoiler
Armour/ES:
You want to focus on Armour/ES based gear. Every single item should have as much Armour and ES as possible.
Every item should have at least T2 LIFE.

Weapons and shields:
For leveling it's minion damage, life and resists.
For endgame we use unique ones, get the ones listed or the build wont work.

Links and skill gems:
Links are always important and your primary skill should have the most links during leveling. If you find a 4L/5L/6L (Tabula rasa) you should place your main skills inside.

Influenced items:
Gloves and Boots should be regular rares that you're going to modify with Eltritch currency items.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ascendancy

1) Commander of Darkness - Much needed resistances and Speed
2) Mindless Agression - Damage and life to minions
3) Unnatural Strength - converts all damage from minions to Chaos
4) Bone Barrier - Very Good tankiness for you
5) Plaguebringer - Excellent Damage and Tankyness

Look for Forbidden Flame/Flesh jewels so you can get any of the ones that you need (except Mindless Agression) as a 5th ascendancy point.

IMPORTANT: Swap Bloodlust for Annihilation and vice-versa when mapping/bossing.

Very Soon, just created the thread haha.
I'll upload some gifs today but the showcase/buildguide video will be up on Thursday next week.

There is a link to the leveling video and it does have an early sneak peak inside if you watch until the end.

You can transition with just the Claw and Shield Honestly.

I waited for the helm as I didn't mind using absolution until then.

Hi, do you absolutely need to put the offerings in your chest? Seems like might be easier to off color and link other items there
