Forgot to thank you for the reply, going Mistress with Bone offering and Glancing blows really helped quite a bit.

Love your enthusiasm in your videos and how detailed they are. One of the best builds i have tried in any league so far, with the Harvest crafting i have been able to make some good gear for Spextres without having to spend tons of Exalts. Did also help a little that i hit 40% Spextre damage on my last lab run before mapping :)


You're welcome!

I made mistake for thinking to show the endgame glass cannon style. 3.12 will be different of course!

You're so lucky with spectre enchant. I only see it once in my life :)

How do I decide between crit and non-crit cluster jewel setup? I assumed crit is better and spent a small fortune crafting a large + 2 mediums, but my final crit effect mod is like 8%. And changing the 2-cluster PoB to crit jewels doesn't really change DpS at all.

Also, what's the point of Overshock? Does it improve Skitterbots' shock aura? PoB shows it has no effect on DpS (or anything at all).


Crit is more, but you must go all crit and also necro aegis and +2 power charge shield. Basicaly stack crit crit crit. But to be honest I don't think it is worth the currency. Even with cheap overshock+vengeful cluster you can kill Mino (32M HP) in 1-2s.

Another player suggested it and we tested it in the early league. It's maybe 80-90% of crit build and 20% cost. I think it's better to save money and upgrade something else!

POB doesn't automatically calculate skitterbot shock at all. you need to add it manually.

I had some useful cluster jewels drop today, so thought I would give them a go.

After some time in the garden using up a bunch of stored crafts, I ended up with a large (8 passive) with Overshock and Vengeful Commander, and two mediums (4 passive and 5 passive) each with First among Equals and VC.

As much as it goes against my inherent laziness, I had to lose my beloved second Profane Proxy, so that the skitters would apply Shock so as to take advantage of these jewels.

After making (quite) a few adjustments to the tree to reach the clusters, my POB minion DPS went from 450k to 1.2M - that is huge, I do notice things dying quite a bit quicker too!

I had to lose quite a few minion life nodes, but they don't seem any squishier :)


Yeah it's a big difference actually!

The reason why original build doesn't have clusters is because early league version was hard to craft, but GGG moved jewel socket to implicit so cluster is actually not so bad.

In 3.12, I will include cluster from beginning!

They have changed it. when you char leave you corpse go to no matter of the map device. what is the requirement for a a pvp char to enable on your account. There is no more leo. So just a lvl 28 char?


My friend tested it on her new account. She was able to make level 28 pvp character no problem. She didn't do anything like play pvp or find a special NPC. Just made it from character screen.

i'm about to finish base build, which should i choose next?
which is better? cost higher?
pure spectre or spider?

which is your recommendation?

pure spectre for boss killing?
spider for mapping?


I recommend S&S. Most of the game is mapping anyway and S&S has tanky and sustain so you will level up easily. Boss DPS is lower so you need to know boss mechanics.

PS has a lot of options though. Most people play Redemption Sentry because it is famous now, but actually there are better spectres for different things too!

I play S&S in league.

Should I use southbound gloves on my AG even if I'm using slave drivers as spectres?

Thanks in advance!


Usually I just put southbound for extra hp. It doesn't matter about the effect. Another option is crafted gloves with chaos res!

Any suggestions on a decent spectre to use for the Spider build until I catch up to my atlas and can get any of the conquerer ones? (only lvl73 atm and got them spawned in red maps on other char)

Have been trying out slave drivers but they keep dying, I need something tankier :D


Oh. If you have veritania on your other character, just get raise spectre gem and use it to get the spectre. Then go back to your HO. The spectre will be added to your desecrate table and your new necro can raise it!

I have a guide about saving spectres in spectre bank! I think it will be useful to you too:

In Ghazy PoB, AVP gives 36,2mln per spectre, while AEF gives 40,7mln.
Still, those numbers are insane, same as his gear, so after putting his helmet on my character, i receive AVP 9,2 mln per spectre, and with AEF 9,5 mln - so it's not that big, to resign from chilling/freezing enemeis.

Summary:
Awaken Elemental Focuse provides more DPS than A. Vicious Projectiles, but at the cost of elemental ailments. The DPS difference isn't that high, to resign from Ailments, therefor i suggeest AVP over AEF for those with uber minion helmets.


He has 4 cluster sets so his hatred gives a huge effect. I guess the final damage is like 99% cold/1% phys. That's why EF scales better than VP.

But for most people VP will be better because they are running 1 or 2 cluster sets. Damage will be close, but freeze is important to survive. Big DPS build don't care about freeze because it will one shot monsters instead.

The only downside is less attack speed. So if you have enough DPS, try a utility gem like Ele Prolif! If one monster gets freeze, the whole pack will freeze too.

I got high enough level to get some redemption knights by now but didnt think of getting them with my other char tbh *duh*, got to remember that if I do it again lol

Will make sure to save them, thats a very handy video thank you very much!

Follow up question, once I get a arena master, is there any way to see my complete team with its buffs in PoB? Or would I have to edit a random item with its buffs?

Interesting! Other than tankiness, do you feel like S&S has an advantage over Pure Spectres?

I am finally getting to the point where i am comfortable with tankiness using Pure Spectre and feel like clear speed and bosses have more potential with PS build.

Would you say:
PS: Better bossing + endgame clear speed
S&S: Better tankiness + Interesting mechanics
?


You will like you can't die with S&S. I could take direct hit from kosis and kosis explosion and didn't die. I don't think PS build can do that.

I think it's smoother for mapping because of the tankiness and sustain. Spiders are super aggressive as well. If you use melee spectres, they stay close to you so they are like a meatshield too.
