Witch - [3.9] Pure Phys Skeletons & Friends Necromancer — Beginner/SSF/Budget Build - Forum

Yes, and yours are aswell. With everything we get from the tree they should hit 75% with no problem. Be sure to check the Minion checkbox in POB Melee splash is a good ideea, but since the carrion golem does a lot of aoe, I don't think it's necessary , from your experience is multistrike or ruthless better ? The only time where I miss melee splash is in incursions. There it is needed. I tried multristrike, but it lagged a lot when i used vaal summon skelletons. So I stick with ruthless. It's good if your minions get all 3 hits in. I find zombies to be idiots, do we really need brutality on them ? For now I swapped minion life to feeding frenzy, but I fear that they will die a lot, so I am thinking of dropping brutality for feeding frenzy. For me Brutality seems worthless since they never go outside my area to actually do any damage. Better have some damage from them rushing the enemy than nothing. And last but not least, I think I asked this before, is the helm enchant +1 zombie / +1 skely worth it ? Or should I craft the minion resistance on it and get a wand with minion damage. I won't cap the resistances nevertheless, but If I get an answer to my first question it might not be the case. I'm not sure about the enchant. But don't worry about the resistance. Try to get a bone helmet with +2 If anyone is willing to explain I can drop a pob if needed. Thanks for the time and please note It's my first summoner, after the first attempt in beta poe when I didn't know shit about the game. Answers are in bold Hello, thank you for taking the time. I guess you didn't answer to the question with zombies because it's personal preferences ? I do not know what the minion box is, but based to my POB they are not capped even with 27 + resistance wand. https://pastebin.com/DLFubNcQ Never invite Vorana, Last To Fall at a beer party.

Just checked your PoB. Spoiler I marked the minion box in blue. I marked the resistances and the damage taken of your skeletons in red. If you uncheck the Minion box, you should see that these stats change. With the box unchecked you see your stats. With the box checked you see the stats of your minions. So your minions are resistance capped.	Posted by Mare28 on Dec 21, 2019, 6:51:27 AM Quote this Post
Amazing build, made minor adjustments to the gems but not by much, opted for a shield as-well just for the extra life, not a fan of shield charge so not using that. Took 1 week to farm a Headhunter using this build not having to spend a load of ex on gear to get it working to t16 was amazing. Also killed the Awakener on level 4 since I didn't have anymore to bring it up more.	Posted by Cpfuzzy on Dec 21, 2019, 7:36:26 AM Quote this Post
Hello everyone! Thanks a lot for the guide, I'm currently following this and as a new player, it's nice to just have a build to follow, considering I'm still "learning" all the other mechanics and stuff (and there's so much of it oh god). Anyways, could anyone be so kind and check out my character for any major "flaws"? I know I am still missing Enfeeble; I'm currently trying to figure out convoking wand crafting, so I'll add that as soon as I figure that out. Also, any tips on what to upgrade next are very welcome. Thanks!	Posted by Piene on Dec 21, 2019, 7:39:45 AM Quote this Post

Hey guys! I am at tier 16's and clearing pretty easy with this build but some bosses just like to 1 shot me so I was looking into picking up the Dorayni glorious Vanity gem as in the guide it says its a big tanky boost but i was just wondering if the seed on it matters for this build? I have no idea what the seed does so I was hoping someone could help me with this? Thanks!	Posted by PheonixIce2 on Dec 21, 2019, 8:33:17 AM Quote this Post
Hello! Great build! I think I'm at the "almost" point. Is there anyway I can better my damage and survivability? The damage on t16 and t15 bosses are good but I think it could be a lot better. I don't have all level 20 gems with quality yet but am working on it, any other major change I should do to make it ready for uber elder/sirius? Especially on the damage side.
