MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BUILD:

Pros:

 - extremely efficient League Starter (requires 0 gear to get started, just 1st Lab; can map on a 4L)
 - smooth campaign (Sentinel of Radiance carries very hard and significantly speeds up campaign)
 - not Unique dependent (for completing general content i.e. t16 mapping, 2-voidstones, non-uber bossing)
 - simple defenses (max block, Divine Flesh, hybrid health pool, armour mitigation, endurance charge on hit, aura stacking) 

Cons:

 - minions are all melee
 - clear is dependent on Melee Splash and/or AG Explode Chest 
 - visual clarity (13x Sentinels, 3x Ascended Sentinels & 1x Sentinel of Radiance, 4x Sentinels & Purity, AG, Golem, & Spectres can make it hard to see the ground or your avatar)
 - damage uptime (during bossing, entering new instances or long fights, you might not have your full dps available)

HOW THE BUILD PLAYS:

 1. Summon Sentinel of Radiance
 2. Hit enemies with Dominating Blow
 3. Use Convocation so your minions keep up with you
 4. Cast Vaal Domination & continue mapping with your holy minion army

HOW TO SPEED LEVEL AFTER NORMAL LAB

 1. Acquire Sentinel of Radiance
 2. 2L Automation & Convocation
 3. 2L Shield Charge + Momentum & 1S Blink Skill
 4. Just run through campaign as SoR Righteous Fire & SoR Slam takes care of everything. (Works for magic white maps too)
