Made A Blood Mage Build That One-Taps Bosses
This is Blood Mage Detonate Dead Build. It can stack up to 4k life + 4k es while mapping, and its damage is able to one tap most t15 map bosses. All endgame bosses and content viable, without the need for super expensive gear.
Essentially we’re choosing detonate dead (DD) because DD explosion damage scales with % corpse maximum life, and not with gem level. This allows us to use a low level skill gem to keep mana costs low, and thus mitigating the downsides of blood mage needing to spend life to cast spells.
Using the spirit skill “Sacrifice”, our minions counts as corpses, so we’re exploding the Skeletal brute minion which has the most hp - resulting in over 9k base DD damage.
In order to keep our brutes alive as we explode them, we are also running skeletal clerics ( which revives dead minions on a CD) and we pick up “chance to not destroy corpses” mods on our the tree, on our gem, and on the the Enezun’s Charge unique wand. We can sustain infinite spamming of DD without running out of our skeletal brutes.
