Corpse Lance Artillery Build

This build is focused on dishing out short bursts of damage to mob groups. Keep on repositioning yourself using the movement speed from Wraith Form and the Issatar Set then damaging mob groups you pull with Corpse Lance and Command Skeletons' explosion.

Corpse Lance and Ten-Thorn Combo

Ten-Thorn removes the homing capability of Corpse Lance in exchange of a stacking mechanic where you can “hold” the corpse lance charge and cast it again to fire in a straight line. This attack has a large radius and can pass through enemies which makes it a great crowd clearer and is the reason why this build works.

Use Grim Scythe to Generate Corpses

While Grimscythe can deal some decent amount of damage, its main use is to generate more corpses on hit. It can create 2 corpses per swing which instantly grants you 4 charges of corpse lance to use for a huge amount of damage.

Carry Corpses from Previous Mobs to Another

The duration for carrying corpse lances is plenty. Don't be afraid to hold your charges as you'll have enough time to easily reach the next enemies.

Stats and Paragon Priorities

Attribute Priorities

Paragon Priorities

Vanquisher For More Damage

Vanquisher is the single most important paragon among the available paragon in the game. Make sure to go for as much damage stat as you can and to get Exorcism as well for more damage against enemies.

Treasure Hunter For Better Gear Farming

This is a speed farming build so increasing your resources obtained is always a great thing. It also provides increased equipment find and exp for a better grinding experience.

How to Play

Gather As Many Corpses Before Using Corpse Lance Use Command Skeleton to Gain Extra Burst Damage Don't Use Command Skeletons Against High HP Bossest

Gather As Many Corpses Before Using Corpse Lance

Using your Corpse Lance will gather corpses up to 8 corpses with one use. You cannot refill your charged lances when used already and you'll need to fire your charged lance first before you can charge your lance again. Make sure to get as many corpses on the ground first and avoid spamming the skill.

Use Command Skeleton to Gain Extra Burst Damage

The damage you can muster from Corpse Lance may not be enough to decimate a group of mobs. If that's the case, supplement it with Grim Scythe to generate some corpses again for the next barrage of fire or use Command Skeleton to execute the wounded enemies.

Avoid Relying on Grim Scythe for Damage

Grim Scythe is a close-ranged skill that counters Bloody Reach. Its main purpose is to kill low HP enemies near you or to generate corpses for Corpse Lance. Do not rely on it for damage.

Don't Use Command Skeletons Against High HP Bosses

Elite bosses will usually not die from Corpse Lance's first hit due to its massive HP. Chances are the additional burst from Command Skeletons will also fail to do this. Do not make your skeletons suicide and let them tank the hits while you whittle the boss with your poisoned Bone Spears instead!
