Introduction

This Lich transforms into its horrific Reaper Form to unleash multiple destructive Necrotic spells while gliding through the battlefield. Manipulate the forces of death and the afterlife to cause havoc with Hungering Souls, Bone Curse and Soul Feast. The first one is mainly specced for high single target DPS while the other two are combined to AoE clear.

The Hungering Souls Lich is able to stay away from threats while fighting, but also has tools to engage enemies in close ranged combat. Death Seal releases a good amount of Hungering Souls while it's active. The build also has great mobility thanks to Reap and unspecced Transplant.

This setup doesn't require any Unique to function. However Items like Grimoire of Necrotic Elixirs, Marina's Lost Soul and Omnis turn this build into an absolute monster, capable of dealing great DPS while being extremely tanky.

Overall this horrific and powerful Lich is an amazing build capable of crushing all the content in the game, even in Hardcore. If you are looking for a dark caster that destroys enemies and is able to survive the hardest encounters, this build is perfect for you!
