you wont have any issue, completing any content of the game even after the nerf, its not like it became useless, you just have to be a little bit more careful.
If you plan using this build on SR and Crucible , it is still doable, although, doing celestials might be a little tricky now with the nerfed conduit.
No worries about conduit vs celestials. they have high leech resistance anyway.
I just tested ravager last night and i am now struggling keeping my hp up with ghoul even before having his hp below 50%. aauuuggg, before, i am practically immortal when ghoul is upā¦
Itās the phys res rather than the wd% 
. Anyway, binder still works just fine. I mean, i improved my time in crucible after the nerf, so yeahā¦works
I didnāt say binders wouldnāt work. Iām just wondering if Essence of Grim Dawn is more competitive now.
After this conduit nerf?
Quick question, Noob here.
Iām trying to get my devotion specād out as yours is but I seem to be missing the one green affinity I need to start the Hawk constellation and cannot find where you put a single point into green to actually start it.
What am I missing?
hello, im not sure what your missing but you should put one point on the green node cross road first, then complete behemoth then hawk. Go to your spirit guide the remove the point you put on the cross road green node.
Also, I am currently in the process of updating the guide since it received a lot of nerfs since the last time I played. Dont get me wrong, the current build is still pretty solid, it can still do crucible 150-180 and SR 75-76 easy, its just that, the build needs to live up to the titleā¦ 
Ah. That makes way more sense. Thank you.
This is my first Arcanist and Necro so I was following your build to the letter.
I am looking forward to any changes you make since this build has helped massively thus far.
Hey @ridopenyo! Iām glad to hear you are updating the guide. I have a 100 Purifier Iāve been trying to gear out so that I can at least farm Lokarr to build a leveling set. I was highly considering building this as my second character to try and clear some superbosses. Do you think this build is still capable of most of what it could do when the guide was written?
Even if it still can, it will be very hard. For reference, even on this buildās prime Callagadra and Crate is already hard enough, now that we lost 40% of our life leech and around 40%-50% of our damage it will be even harder without any adjustment.
Good news tho, the new adjusted build is proven to be working, I just beat Ravager and Crate still without pharma so theres that.
I am currently taking a break from the game as it reverted back 5 days ago and just lost all the MIās I farmed for the last 3 days, I am so f@#king furious right now!!!
