It could but you need quite alot of investment.
AFKing blight is VERY hard after ultimatium because you want to max juice your blighted maps now.

I was able to do it in Ultimatum but completely afking them required me to invest ~100 exalted orbs. Don't think that much was necessary though but that's what I ended paying to be able to do 95% of all blighted maps afk.

I needed to build a different gear specific for Blight to be able to do it. The reason was because Chaos damage is extremely dangerous when AFK blighting due to a poison spider spawning a cloud almost oneshotting you.

To manage AFK blights I was using The Queen's Hunger chest and stacking Increased Duration. I also had to equip special items with Chaos resistance to cap it out. I also had to use a Glorious Vanity and small clusters with Born to Chaos. This got me up to 84% max Chaos Res which was enough to outregen the Chaos Clouds. I also had to fit Stone Golem and Vitality to hav enough health regen to survive stuff, while also using a CWDT Stoneskin setup.

When all this was setup the defenses were in order and I could AFK the blights. I had to sacrifice Skitterbots to fit the Liferegen and I had 60 million dps running that setup. In this league, this would've been ~40 million dps which I think is enough.

What do u think about Necro and Elemtalist for the leaguestart? And as u said to avoid pure phys, do u suggest to go lightning (Slave drivers) untill reaching lowbudget goals or even stay till medium budget as Elemtalist?

We'll do the same as we did last league :)

Start elementalist. Once you get Anima stone and Primordial Might et.c. Swap to Necromancer.

Going Necro in the start results in the loss of 2 Golems (3 total with Necro, 5 total with Ele) which is too much of a loss.

The pure phys nerf et.c. won't affect us in the early game I think. It'll mostly be felt mid and lategame.

During Ultimatum I ran my leveling setup (5-link, Wraithlord, pure phys et.c.) until I got to T13 red maps. At that point, the dps really started to feel slow and I used all currency I had gathered to upgrade the build to low budget.

This league I think I will have to make the transition much earlier. The leveling setup will probably only last until mid yellow maps.

That being said, my plan is to:
1. Use leveling setup for as long as possible running pure phys and Elementalist.
Before Syndicate Operatives are available I'll use Carnage and Host Chieftains to buff my golems.
2. I'll use the build until I feel like my clear starts becoming too slow.
Then I'll swap to low budget.
Priorities are getting gloves and +3 Helm with Life to make the swap into Cold Minions for scaling.
Priority two is getting Primordial Jewels.
Priority three is speccing into Necro and finishing low budget version at which point I'll be able to clear all relevant content. (Obviously stuff like Invitations and 100% delirium won't be possible on this budget) I'm certain Guardians and Sirus should be fine though.

EDIT: I'm actually changing my mind. We will ALL start as necromancers!
Scrap Elementalists, the golems are not worth it because their dps is too low.
I'm currently making changes to my PoBs and will update the buildguide afterwards. I'll have everything setup for tomorrow so don't worry :)

Okay, thanks for this big reply) Last time, when i was AFK on blights - 3.12 (pure golemancer with ~70exa gear). In 3.13 2exa gear skelemage and pure Tower-Build hehe. Prob now also will use towers.

Also prob ill pick u'r version of build, if it'll be bad for me - respec to another version (as i said)

This is a great guide. Thanks for putting this together. I will be trying to follow this guide for this league. I see that you have a bunch of different POBs for everything, all of them are a single skill tree and gear set. Is there a main POB that has everything with all different skill trees? I'd like to try to follow your leveling suggestions and it would be nice if there was a POB that included skill trees at different stages of leveling, then the low, medium, high etc budget setups.
