True Support in Co-Op

Diablo Immortal - Mystic Allies

The main purpose of this Mystic Allies build is to provide support for your entire team, while your summons distract enemies for you.

Huge Buffs to Mystic Allies

Rod of Echoes, The Open Mind, and Companion's Melody, as well as two parts of the gear set Shepherd's Call to Wolves all work together to buff Mystic Allies by decreasing its cooldown, and increasing its damage and duration, making this skill more viable to use all the time. The Legendary Gem Freedom and Devotion also helps increase the duration of Mystic Allies.

Minor Buffs to Support Skills

Inner Sanctuary gets buffs as well, with Respite's Sigh increasing its duration, and Disciplined Respite improving its cooldown. Moreover, due to the Legendary Gem Bottled Hope, casting Inner Sanctuary on your party will increase their damage output for a while.

Exploding Palm for Some Offensive Power

Exploding Palm is good to have in this build as a way to contribute offensively to your party. Exploding Palm will be buffed by four parts of the Feasting Baron's Pack set, so the Bleed effect will stay longer on enemies.

Offensive Gems for DPS increase

This support class does not lack in DPS. the Legendary Gems Fervent Fang, Blood-Soaked Jade and Berserker's Eye will ensure you have damage to deal, while your support skills are on the cooldown.

Stats and Paragon Priorities

Attribute Priorities

Cooldown Reduction Cooldown Reduction is central to this build, as you always need to have Mystic Allies out, taking the hits for you. Better cooldowns would also help you focus more on assisting your party with your buff skills.
Critical Hit Chance Having higher critical hit chance would make it easier for you and your Mystic Allies to bring down enemies quickly to trigger their Exploding Palm detonation.
Strength Even a support class needs Strength to be able to contribute to a heated raid, and to make their Mystic Allies stronger as well.
Movement Speed Moving quickly around the battle area is ideal to stay out of trouble and immediately assist members of your party.
Vitality Some Vitality would be nice to add to the survivability of this class. You can't support anyone if you're dead.

Paragon Priorities

Vanquisher > Survivor > Soldier > Mastermind

Your First priority would be the Vanquisher Paragon tree, since it ups your DPS and HP and makes you a more viable member of the team. The Survivor Paragon tree would be your secondary skill tree, since staying alive to support your party is just as important as increasing your damage.

At the endgame, the Mastermind and Soldier Paragon trees, allow you to give buffs to your party members when in battle. These two skill trees are ideal for a support role.

How to Play





Always Have Mystic Allies Out

Diablo Immortal - Mystic Allies
The extended duration and decreased cooldowns given by your Armor and Gems will make it so you can bring out your Mystic Allies very often. Always use this skill as soon as it becomes available, and let your summons engage with the enemy.

Use Exploding Palm to Pop Enemies Faster

Diablo Immortal - Use Exploding Palm
This is best used in large hordes of enemies. Cast Exploding Palm on a cluster of enemies, and let your Mystic Allies tear them down, then watch the explosions commence.

Cast Buffs Where the Action Is

Diablo Immortal - Cast Buffs
Cast Inner Sanctuary when your party members are engaging hordes of enemies, or a boss, then join in the battle. Make sure to time this skill right, ideally when you think the battle will go a bit longer in a specific area

Versatility with Imprisoned Fist

Imprisoned Fist has some added utility because of the Rising Tide shoulder armor; It can be used as a mobility skill to get out of danger, or a skill to stop enemies in their tracks to halt their pursuit of you or your teammates. Furthermore, the Chip of Stoned Flesh Gem will ensure this skill inflicts an explosive curse on enemies, which can be compounded with Explosive Fist for twice the explosions.

Team Should Stick Close Together

Since your Gems and Paragon trees have buffs that activate when party members are closeby, it would be best for the entire party to stick close to each other, especially to reap the benefits of Inner Sanctuary.
