[3.9] Discomancer - Skeleton Mages | SSF HC viable | All Content | Budget

Hello,

the Patchnotes are out and I already created the corresponding new Pastebin until they release the new tree on the website too. We lost some Chaos resistance for our minion but who cares.
All in all all of our minions got buffed along the way, so we can be happy!
Mapping should be easier now.

Please keep in mind, this is a map clear build. While it CAN take out shaper and probably uber elder with some investment too, it is not meant for that. It's made to create currency.

Since I don't know about delve yet I can't tell you well this build will perform on higher delves or delve bosses.

kind regards,
Akuma

Hello, can you farm ubber lab with this build?

Everything is stated on the beginning on the first post.
While you CAN! do bosses, incl. Uberlab, this is NOT a main build for that. Also there is still this bug, where traps that inflict bleeding to spectres do a higher amount of damage then inteded which can easily kill your spectres of you're not cautious.

If you want to FARM uberlab you better take Warchief Champion with Kondos or later Starforge.

Hi, i have a question regarding the use of bone sculptor ascendency and From dust jewel. With bone sculptor and from dust jewel, we are getting 5 skeletons per cast. Together with spell echo, means that each cast of summon skeletons will yield us 10 in total. Is that correct?

Yes and that is very wanted. Your full army just one single cast away.

Quick, as someone who never played Spectres, how do you do high-level spectres again?

Go to the area/map where you can get them naturally.
Cast desecrate until their corpse appears, summon them.
Now to to the highest map your gems support, cast desecrate until their corpse appears and summon them.

hey, about the Vanguards. is it still worth to get them over the flying red carpets? i heared that the bruning damage from vanguards got nerft somehow?

Hi thanks for the build, its working great so far in delve.

I am 75 and farming t1-t6, about to get vis mortis but abit hesitant since i will lose a lot of defenses and not sure if the spectres are really needed tbh.
I run vaal summon skeletons and when i use it i have 40 skeles on the field, no boss survives that.

ofc i can play whatever i want, but would like some opinion on this maybe i am missing something.

Hi,

Vaal Summon Skeletons is nice/okay. Since they are now containing the normal ones it might be a nice addition! to the core build, gonna try that soon.
But spectres are a big deal. For small bosses, sure, the vaal skeletons are enough. But if you wanna do bigger stuff, the Spectres are better by far. Just a 5L can kill shaper already. And resists can be capped by just 4 equip items. Sure, takes a bit of currency but as stated in the main post, this build is more for mapping than bossing but is definitely capable of everything if handled right.

Can't tell much about delves as I do a labrunner as first char, but Skellies should be able to do everything up to monsterlevel 80 quite fine. With spectres definitely 90+
