I checked a lot of builds for the new league and when i decided for minions they nerf it, whyyyy? :_( is it still viable?
Any ideas on a pure phys ranged spectre?

i am considering an impale build now, since the nerf hits a bit too hard. A lot less block from offering, a lot more dmg taken from glancing (i think it's not viable anymore, stacking normal block would be better) and we still don't know how hard vengeful will be nerfed (but i guess changing to 6 passives aura clusters will give the dmg back, this will come at a cost tho, as you will have to take points from somewhere to put in the cluster)
They kind of nerfed every aspect of redemption sentries which kind of sucks. But depending on the numbers, crit RS spectres should still be fine imo. The biggest issue will be getting perfect cluster jewels.

I wonder if it's even worth going cluster jewels now with the nerf to vicious bite, precise commander, and vengeful commander.
this game is officially for no-lifer people.

Need to see new numbers on Vengeful Commander... I hope it doesn't become totally useless. But actually if we change to stacking renewal, it's actually easier/cheaper to craft. So it's not totally bad. We can even use mechanic like blessed rebirth + phantasms to get a lot of sustain.

Only very high-end build was based around crit scaling. It was very expensive, so I didn't make my guide for that. So the nerf doesn't hurt so much.

And to be honest, I didn't use Redemption Sentry at all in 3.11... the slow attack speed feels terrible.

Yeah I had planned on only swapping to RS after getting Unending Hunger, without that, SD is faster in mapping.

Nothing good. GGG balances the pure phys against armour, so damage value is bad. Conversion spectres like Redemption has high damage because it's 75% ele.

Valako's Daughter is the closest to Redemption Sentry. Base phys with fire conversion. So you can still abuse hatred scaling. Hits harder but has worse attack time :\

I think Templar Tactician is a better mapper spectre than SD.

SD has a short range and bit stupid AI (flee mechanic). And it really feels like it has a delay or it stops casting.

TT just covers the screen with ball lightning. :)
