    What works even better than the Necromantic Aegis route is the Fortress Covenant jewel that makes minions take more damage for allocated notables in its proximity. That way it’s possible to use a shield yourself, possibly with good minion stats like +Level and of course for better defense.

      @@Logined85 With three allocated notables it‘s at 60% increased damage taken which isn’t too hard to do and a damage increase in addition to defense… With lots of minion movement speed it’s even possible to go to 80% but at least my build is not there.
      Of course around 6-8 passives aren’t free either but I think it has to be stronger overall.
