Diablo 4 Season 11's Best Necromancer Leveling Build is a 3-for-1 deal

Levels up quickly at the start of a new one Diablo 4 season is always a struggle for players who want to get into the new endgame content as soon as possible. Diablo 4 Season 11 gives players even more challenges to tackle once they level up their build, including the new Tower competition dungeon and Lesser Evil invasions throughout Sanctuary. Fortunately, the best leveling build for Season 11 is getting a new tool that should make it three times as effective.

Historically, the Minion Necromancer has been one of them Diablo 4s best leveling build simply because it pays to have multiple minions supporting the player at lower levels. This build also puts players in a great position to transition into the end game, as sacrificing one or more minion types can give the remaining minions and the build overall. Now, Diablo 4 Season 11 makes this type of build all the more appealing with the introduction of the Gravebloom Unique Mace that puts the Necromancer's Golem in the spotlight.

Diablo 4 Necromancers can summon 3 Times the Golems in Season 11

The typical setup for a Minion Necromancer leveling build involves using a mix of Skeletal Warriors, Skeletal Mages, and a Golem, along with skills like:

Harvest
Soullift
Destruction
Corpse Tendrils

While the Minion Necromancer build tends to put the player in a more passive role and let the summon do most of the damage, players can support their minions with these skills. Blight helps spread pools that damage enemies over time, and Corpse Tendrils is useful for pulling enemies into Blight pools or into range for their minions to deal with. Soulrift is usually the Necromancer's ultimate skill of choice for this type of build, as it adds vulnerable to enemies and gives the Necromancer a bonus damage multiplier. However, Season 11's new Gravebloom Unique makes another Ultimate preferable.

Gravebloom Unique Mace is perfect for Minion Necromancer builds

Gravebloom Unique Mace
- 10% attack speed
- +94 Intelligence
- +457 Maximum lifespan
- +50.0% chance for Golem to strike twice
- +2 Golem Mastery
- Unique Affix: You raise 3 smaller Golems that each deal 40-60% of normal damage and gain 30%[+] Attack Speed. Your Golems respawn 50% faster.

What makes Gravebloom so attractive to Necromancers is that it trades a single Golem for three smaller ones, albeit at only 60% of its power. However, with three total Golems at 60% power, Necromancers gain a total of 180% of their unique Golem's power with this unique. Add in the chance for each Golem to hit twice and +2 to Golem Mastery, and Gravebloom is designed to make summoned Golems the star of Minion Necromancer Diablo 4 Season 11.

Minion Necromancer with the Gravebloom is the best leveling build in Diablo 4 Season 11

The script is turned slightly because Minion Necromancer builds in Diablo 4 Season 11. In Season 10, the best Minion Necromancer builds sacrificed their Golems and Skeletal Warriors and made Skeletal Mages the focus. With Gravebloom thrown into the mix, Necromancers will want to take the opposite approach and sacrifice their other minions to bolster their three Golems. By doing so, players can benefit from another Necromancer Unique in the Lockless Wall shield.

With both Gravebloom and Lidless Wall equipped, players will want to use Bone Storm as the Necromancer's Ultimate Skill. Lidless Wall increases the power of Bone Storm by 25% for each Sacrifice bonus the player has active, and Bone Storm spawns not only around the player but also their Golem. Having tripled the number of active Golems means Bone Storm can be spread far and wide for screen-clearing AoE damage that can quickly kill monsters for an easy grind to max level.
