Levelling Progression

See trees in attached PoB. Use selector in bottom left for progression trees.

Masteries

A lot of the masteries available come down to a matter of personal preference but some are more or less mandatory.

Life Mastery: “+50 to maximum life.” Should be taken as soon as possible.
Life Mastery: “ 15% increased Maximum Life if there are no life Modifiers on Equipped Body Armour.
Minion Offence Mastery: “20% increased effect of offerings.” Our bread and butter to increase our block coming from Bone Offering.
Reservation Mastery: “Auras from your skills have 10% increased effect on you.” Further helps us scale our defensive auras.
Minion Defence Mastery: “Convocation has 40% increased cooldown recovery rate” Since we are constantly in melee range of our enemies we want to make sure we can bring our minions with us as often as possible.
Minion Offence Mastery: “Minions have +250 to accurate rating” This is only needed if you don’t have spare Ghastly Eye Jewels with minion accuracy rating modifier to make sure they are capped and always hit their attacks.
Minion Defence Mastery: “Minions have +8% to all maximum elemental resistances” This is crucial to keeping your minion army alive, this also means that you’ll want to get at least 1x Bone Ring to help cap their resistances.
Mana Mastery: “12% Increased Mana Reservation Efficiency of Skills” We utilize this to make use of all our Auras

Amulet Anointment

The best annointment for this build is to cap our block chance, for this the best node is Testudo this requires: 1x Clear Oil, 1x Sepia Oil & 1x Black Oil.

6-Link Dominating Blow

Despite the inherited splash provided by melee reworks back in Legion league, I still strongly advise for the use of Melee Splash when clearing as a matter of personal preference.

Dominating Blow
Minion Damage Support
Brutality Support
Multistrike Support (Change this for Melee Splash Support for clearing)
Melee Physical Damage Support
Ruthless Support (this can be swapped with Behead Support if you want HeadHunter esque mapping)

I would strongly suggest switching Multistrike for Melee Splash Support when clearing maps.

3-Link Trigger

Generic trigger socketed spells when you use a skill set-up to automate curses as well as desecrate and offering. It is important to note that you can switch the curse for Increased Duration and simply use the curse manually to trigger the other spells instead:

1-Socket Utility

Flame Dash

1-Socket Utility

Precision (Keep this gem at a lower level to make sure you have mana to cast your other skills)

1-Socket Utility

Convocation

1-Socket Auras

These do not need to be linked and can go wherever you have sockets.

Tempest Shield
Flesh and Stone Sand stance – you take less damage the closer you are to the enemies!
Precision Keep this at a low level depending on how much unreserved mana you have
Pride
