Hey Grimlock, thank you for your in-depth explanation about your build. It was very enlightening. I have one final question. Can you be more detailed about your leveling process? Like what gems to use and what skills to get at certain acts. Also some leveling uniques to aim for to help level. I use Raise Zombie for the first gem and then keep using that until Skeleton Warriors?

Hi Sighlight. I added a section to levelling that might be what you are after, but if it needs anything else, just let me know!
Levelling targets *help with crafting here:(https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vendor_recipe_system)
Spoiler
ASAP - Find or craft boots with movement speed. Keep getting more movement speed on boots forever :) Level 1 - Get Raise Zombie. This skill gets you to level 4, and then sits in any nicely rolled 3 or 4 link item until you get Invoker ascendency. At this point your zombies should become way more persistent (not having to resummon them all the time) Level 4 - Get Summon Raging Spirits Level 8 - Get minion damage and melee splash and link those with summon raging spirits in a 3 link item (coloured RBB) Level 10 - Get Vaal Summon Skeletons, or second best is getting plain summon skeletons. Start levelling this gem but continue using SRS. Level 18-26: Find or craft a + 1 to minion level helm (4 linked with RRBB) Add in melee physical damage gem. Level 26: Find or buy a Baron helm (second choice is a +2 minion helm). Craft it with 4 links coloured RRBB. (While you can level up to 55 with SRS, now would be a great time to switch to skeletons. Put them in the helmet.) Level 38 onwards: Find, buy, craft a 5 Link chest or 5 link weapon. Best is Queen's escape and Belly of the beast. Add in Maim, Brutality, Minion life, minion speed, etc as your 5th gem to zombies and skeletons Final Targets: overcap resists, find a 6 link chest, and get a 6 link queens escape, get awesome jewel rolls, and life rolls on gear, get 20% quality gems and level 21 corrupted active skill gems. Leveling Ascendencies
Spoiler
Commander of Darkness > Invoker > Bone Sculptor > Flesh Binder This is very optional, but I just love having those early resists from commander of darkness. It means your defences are in place and your item choices are much wider for the early game. Leveling Item Options
Spoiler
* for rings, belts, gloves, shields the priority is: Enough stats for your gems > Capped resists > Life > life regen > armour Weapons Instead of queens escape = An incursion corrupted rare with + Minion Damage, Femur of the Saints, Chober Chaber, Dying Breath, Aurumvorax (for resists), The scourge, Mon'treguls grasp, or any 5 or 6 linked 2 hander you find until you can get a better one! Helmets Instead of Baron = Wraithlord, Skullhead, rare +2 helmet Body armour Instead of Belly of the Beast = Tabula Rasa, Lightning Coil, Ambu's charge, Perfect Form, Loreweave, or any well rolled rare. Boots Instead of Seven-League Steps = Bubonic Trail, Victario's Flight, Alberons Warpath, Any rare with 30% movespeed should be good Gloves Instead of Meginoords Vise = Kalisas grace, Wyrmscale, Any rares that help you with resists, stats, defence. Amulets instead of astramentis = Sidhebreath or any Rare/Unique that helps you cap resists, get stats, and defences Belt options = Darkness Enthroned, Strings of Servitude (with increased resistances is fantastic for levelling), Belt of the deceiver, or any rare that helps you cap resists, get stats, get defences.

Damn. That is amazing. I hope you keep updating your guide because I want to play your build always in every league start. Thank you for the leveling tips. It's a perfect guide for even the most newest players!
do you also have a leveling tree that is split into every 20 levels or so? Last edited by sighlight on Jun 3, 2018, 2:15:25 AM

my problem is the incursion timer, I'm not sure if im playing it wrong or I prolly dont understand the mechanics. but i never finish a single one (filled the monster bar) due to the timer. can anyone give me tips? "I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming in terror like his passengers."

" The incursions are much more difficult early game for us summoners. We simply don't have the move speed to find the stone, and move it to where it needs to go. I imagine it's be a bit easier for the dex based characters who have earlier move speed. Thankfully, it gets brainlessly easy after your second lab run: The best thing to do is Rush Bone sculptor in your ascendencies. By the time you get here, you should have a decent quicksilver flask, 20-30% move speed on your boots and phase run in a gem slot. At this stage, you will be killing every monster and moving fast enough to both find the key (stone of passage), pick it up, and run it to the doorway. You should also have vaal skellies by now, which is great for doing damage while you move elsewhere and cast normal skellies. This means you are clearing 2 mobs / bosses at once. I had the same difficulties as you, but am now finishing the incursions with 15 seconds left! |

" Lord of the dead > Puppet Master > Death Attunement > Shaper > Grave Pact > Sentinel From here, I like to rush to Barbarism which means you have collected all the resists and most of the passive strength/dex from the tree really early. This simply makes your item choices much wider, basically anything you find with good stats can be used. Your last 30 levels collect the life and jewel slots turning you into a the tank you need to be to survive late game. Although you are best off adapting your passive tree choices to the gear you are wearing, here is a sample that should work with most gear choices: 20 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQN 40 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQP 60 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQS 80 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQU 100 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQW 110 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQX (If you have good resists on gear) 110 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQ7 (If you need resists from the passive tree) Last edited by grimlock9999 on Jun 3, 2018, 4:27:26 AM

" It's in there under the 'levelling tree' subheading. I'm trying to find a way to hyperlink in these forums, but no luck so far. |
