Build of the Week Season 13 - Episode 1 - BalorMage's Popcorn Spectres

Season 13 of Build of the Week is here! Today we’re showcasing BalorMage’s clever use of the new Dark Marionette Spectres introduced in the Affliction League.

See you next time!

those spectres last longer than my playtime in diablo 4 season 3

I don't care if you have to remove wisps but please keep the corpse salesman in game, new spectre options are so fun

[abote]

This game is crazy, the fact that you can do all kinds of crazy and interesting builds like this one is great

[danielb]

I love this series. It perfectly showcases the endless possibilities you have in PoE

[karmoth]

Build of the week is the salt in the soup. Please more

[TalkativeTri]

My favorite official series returns yet again.

What works even better than the Necromantic Aegis route is the Fortress Covenant jewel that makes minions take more damage for allocated notables in its proximity. That way it’s possible to use a shield yourself, possibly with good minion stats like +Level and of course for better defense.

Awesome build! Love the Build of the Week videos.

Please PLEASE keep the new spectres in core, there are so many cool things to do with them. We can lose the wisps, we can lose the ascendencies, but please don't take away our new spectrea

I was so looking forwarded to Build of the Week this league due to all the new gems and builds coming out. Can't wait to see more crazy out of left field builds!

[TheSilverwing]

Please consider keeping some of the spectres in the game after this league. It doesn't have to be the super powerful ones, but the ones that enable new builds, like the dark marionettes. More build diversity is worth keeping around

As someone who was called Dave in Highschool, I weep for the Daves.

[makoandmoka]

Really smooth and satisfying gameplay once you manage to get the timings right...

[NJungArt]

I've really been looking forward to build of the week with all the new whacky gems! Keep em coming Eben! 🎉

[Viniciusdias]

we already know build from content creators, build of the week should be about new and undiscovered stuff from the community

[pgbollwerk]

I’m delighted his build got featured. I’ve been playing it since he came up with it on stream. Lots of fun.

[Matosis]

the editing of BotW is so good, love u Eben!

[ramschasar]

Fairly simpel build. I really like how they showcased it. Easy to understand for new players.
Have a spectre build running red maps as well. Wand Berserker summoning slashing horrors and linking to them for either more fire damage or triggerfalling zombies (once i found a way to sustain it xD)
This league is a blast!

[Primaeva]

Ahh I was sitting on a Spectre Popcorn build since the Soul Wick rework but releasing it this season would have set the bar unexpectedly high due to Marionettes automating it. Loss of Phantasmal Desecrate was also a big neef to non-Marionette dps too. Ah well! It's out of the bag now

[JohanCardel]

Glorious build, using the league's tools and automating everything, as we know he like to do :)
Bring on the Daves!
