" SRS is very bad for clearing, because they have to travel from your location to the enemy, and they go in random directions, and they dont live that long. So they are mostly just used for boss killing. | |
hi your overview about the needed colors in the leveling guide is wrong. there you mentioned that for the links with summon raging spirit you need BBB but is has to be BBR because melee phys support is red, isnt it?
Thanks for your guide! i will try this as starter for 3.11 |

Is it worth to switch to Turong spectre during leveling? I found on poedb.tw that they spawn in lvl10 delve but I can't find them. Am I missing something?

I've personally never tried leveling early acts with minions so I don't know how it compares, but if people are struggling with early acts I've been leveling with OOS in practice runs. Basically I follow a standard OOS racing build early except I skip the Dark Arts wheel. When you've reached Control Blocks and hit level 38 for Spell Echo you just switch from OOS, Stormblast Mine and Lightning Spire Trap to Slave Drivers and Zombies. I'm not anywhere close to a racer, but I'm hitting A5 at 2 hours blank with all skill points (no lab, without picking up any magic or rare items for private league practice), then do lab and spend a couple of minutes buying gems and fixing links. With Slave Drivers leveling is pretty smooth from there.
Spoiler
Basically it's fine to transition between OOS leveling and lightning spectres. You get Elemental Focus and Conductivity as quest rewards, and you buy Skitterbots and Controlled Destruction during leveling anyway. You pick up Raise Spectre, Flesh Offering, Feeding Frenzy (need library), Carrion Golem and Spell Echo from the quest rewards that doesn't offer anything for OOS leveling. Then you need to buy Raise Zombie, Minion Damage, Desecrate, Convocation, Zealotry, Generosity, and Curse on Hit. This costs 1 Wisdom, 1 Transmute, 3 Alterations, 1 Chance and 1 Alchemy. I level the gems from the quest rewards in offhand. For links you need BBBB for spectres, BBB(B) for zombies+golem+feeding frenzy (preferably not in weapon since swapping kills your zombies), BBB for OOS with curse on hit and BR for Zealotry (need to save up 3 points for EE and Avatar of Fire). I just keep a BBB wand and BR in weapon swap to level quests rewards gems for the swap. I ditch all the other gems except Smoke Mine, Flame Dash, Arcane Surge and Skitterbots.
A4 is a bit sketchy survivability wise (although damage is fine-ish with 2 wand crafts), so it might not be that HC viable unless you're very good. There's a lot of gems to be bought, so you have to be picking up more rares than usual and you have the alts to transition. Tree is fairly self-explanatory, you have around 44 skill points at this point and 4 respec ones. Next you take Avatar of Fire and EE. https://imgur.com/dazgGXz Last edited by Whurthic on Jun 17, 2020, 3:56:56 PM

I think Slaver Drivers are dead...
from patch notes: "Fixed a bug which caused the area of effect of Lightning Whip used by several monsters to get way too big." (this is the tooltip name of the their flame whip ability) We all know what that means... Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me.

" Slave Drivers use an ability called Lightning Surge according to PoB. Don't think it's the same thing. Not sure though. Last edited by SparkleMotion on Jun 17, 2020, 5:09:01 PM

Does anyone have a simple gear priority list once hitting maps? Thanks!

" According to PoEDB, the Slave Driver skill is actually Flame Surge so hopefully not the same as the 'Lightning Whip' mentioned in the patch notes. Last edited by Orbu on Jun 17, 2020, 5:29:41 PM
