To perhaps simplify the rambling mess that was my prior post, if one were to move the curse setup to a pair of blind gloves, use the special helm to get 6L spectres and put AG/Golem in chest... would that give flexibility for any sneaky gems you can think of? Or even moving golems to boots with empower, no stone and putting auras in chest with an enlighten to add another? Say, flesh and stone, or another DPS aura (Aspect of the Spider?)

That sounds good. If you want to test it, please do. I think it's a good idea.

You could even put a defensive curse like enfeeble with Blasphemy in your chest (if you have +1 curse craft).

I'm working on a Pledge build with Diadem, so I already have all my aura in my helmet.

So, I hot my first timeless jewel... and a big decision lays before me.

Would you guys sacrifice 30% increased life, 10% fire res, 18% cold/lightning res, 24% eva/armor rating (all inc, not more) and a gem slot... for 160% more minion damage, 80% more minion life (because SDs are squishy) and an optional 50% lightning res?

I feel as though the res losses are minimal, but 30% increased life... it's not more, but. Well. Life.

Do what you feel is fun! But keep in mind some points:

1. Slave Drivers already do a lot of DPS
2. Legion encounters are rippy - need more eHP/res
3. Your DPS is 0 if you are dead.
4. My updated tree seems to overcome spectre survivability issues

I was following your tree and guide and it says to put points into EE.

I'm fairly new to the game and I dont understand how it actually works and in your guide it says to put fire dmg in your wand.

I currently have fire dmg in my ring and cold dmg in my weapon so basically I have all 3 element dmg since I believe slave driver does lightning dmg. How does EE work in this case..?

So basically with EE: if you hit with fire damage, enemy monsters will get +25% fire res & -50% cold/lightning res.

Your minion hits do not proc EE, so they will benefit from the -50% lightning res.

Remember to check the tooltip to make sure you are not doing any lightning damage.

will there be a dps boost from using pledge of hands? regardless of losing QOL from auto cast wand. noob question since I dunno how to config POB.

Once I add the Pledge build, I'll add a pro/con table.

Basically:

Wand + Shield:
More DPS
Autocast (trigger) Offering
Autocast (trigger) EE from BV + fire damage
Dodge from phase acro
Cheaper

Pledge:
Less DPS
More AOE coverage
Block from staff
Hybrid Life + ES
More auras
More expensive

Kayella, I see you remade your skill tree completely. Is it only for the PoH version? Because I saw on one of your newest videos, you kill UE with wand+shield setup.
Also, what levels of dexterity based gems do you recommend for the wand+shield setup?

Yes, it's a custom build for Pledge of Hands and uses new equipment interactions and a very different tree. I'm still optimising it. It will be different to Uberelite's version because I'm not using any league specific items (timeless jewels).

When it's done, I'll share it as an 'advanced' build because it will be more expensive than the wand + shield 'basic build'.


For dex gems, the higher level the better. Just remember that you cannot downgrade Vaal Haste with scour orb recipe; you will have to buy a new one if your dex becomes lower because of new equipment (this is why my Pledge build only has level 5 Vaal Haste).

The only problem as on date is Uber Elder, time to time, i do not know, how it is really works, i've tried it 3 times yesterday. One time i farmed it with 1 death, 2 others i've died in a seconds with loosing all the SDs.

I'm thinkg about watcher's eye for me, but i think nothing is viable for this build, or?

Try this tree: https://pastebin.com/5iy1LeyS

This will most likely be the updated tree for the build. I've dropped Righteous Army in favour of Sacrifice/Spiritual Command for more spectre survivability. It's also important to have at least 1 jewel with minion leech, and minion life. I'll change the jewel recommendations in the next build update.


If you can find a way to run Haste Aura, I recommend Phasing/Dodge while affected by Haste. Perma-phase will eliminate any body blocking and improve survivability from being able to always move.

So, Uber Elder killing problems does not give me good sleep over the night.

My idea:

1)Drop wrath and zealotry, take Mana nodes to 2k Mana(i have 6kHP)
2)Take Sacrifice defensive node for spectres, take more nodes for life leach
3)The damage from spectres will drop from 1.1kk to 0.6kk, but still life leach is capped due to life of spectres, in total 9k life leach&2.7k regen
4)Take mana flask instead of movement, and taste of hate instead of phasing
5)Switch on Necromantic Aegis, but take my rare shield for block damage/spells on spectres
6)My block will be from Rumi
7)Take Purity of Ice
8)think about high level Molten Shell
9)Change 2 of my abyss jewel to add for each 10% elemental resistance to minions.

I will spend this evening for this, i still have uber elder spawned, i will try to do this, and give a report ;)

After this, if succeed, i want to go step by step back, first is to drop MOM and go back with attack aura to get back the damage.

Updated my jewel with your data for SD's:

EDIT (I forgot to set spectre lvl to 84)

I get 2.95mio Shaper DPS and 5.15mio generic (without Vaal Haste activated).

So I am a bit doubtful as well and think the values are a bit too high.

in PoE Configuration: I set the Frenzy/Power Charges and I hit the mobs with Fire Damage and Shock. I activated the 2 curses and 3 auras; deactivated vaal haste.

So either I am using PoB wrong, the raw data input is too high or they actually are that good :-D

I do not know about shaper dps, but i compared. I was playing 2 leagues with Frost Sentinels. So i know the dps of them on T15-T16 perfectly, visually, under 2 auras - hatred+Zealotry.

Yesterday, with continuing my experiments for SDs, i dropped 2 auras wrath+zealotry, and clear speed was close to the same, like i had with frost sentinels+auras...

with additional cuerse on chest ... which curse i should use ?

Nice guide. I have one question regarding the animated guardian helmet. Since its using slave driver I assume it should be "Nearby Enemies have -9% to Lightning Resistance" now? and also what is the best 2nd curse to use with the chest? Thank you.

What you think guys about rare Minion Staff?

Much more damage, same block.

I tryed and use the rare one.
