Hey dude, thanks a bunch for the tips on how to make Specters work :)

First time I'm playing a summoner, and it's a blast, especially in SSF!

My POB (gear is pretty decent, sure you can do better in trade leagues) - https://pastebin.com/E95sXYXJ


Temp Chains +

I really like this idea.

Would you say that has added a lot of survivability?

It helps a LOT, especially with Legions which is by far the biggest risk. Delves, too. Combined with Aspect of the Spider, things barely get to move, so I can manually dodge just about anything.

Can't say I lack for DPS, I didn't even feel the loss of Elemental Weakness, and the Blind for bosses was semi-meaningless and unreliable (can use Flask when it really matters).


These kinds of gloves are much better than just the Blind gem (20% total instead of 10%, and saves a gem), and that felt better, but still not reliable enough in my opinion. Things usually die before they are blinded anyhow with that.

Does anyone know if POB calculates the bonuses your ag adds?

Also, has anyone had any good results with enchants for PoH build?

I've been thinking over your build change and I think it's worth adding to the build as a replacebent for Blind/CoH/EW (or conductivity).

Temporal Chains + Blasphemy + Enhance 4 results in 42% reduced action speed against normal & magic, and 26% reduced against rares and bosses. That's a huge survivability boost.

I'll have to look at poeninja to estimate how Solstice will impact the cost/accessibility of the build.

It might even be possible to add it to the staff build and keep perma-phasing!

Thanks for this.

Yeah, I'm leveling Enhance for this very reason.

Hope it helps others :)

IF i want to add + 1 curse multimodded chest in build whatgem setup should i change

So i'm still with SDs, continiously experimenting with build.

If interesting,
1)i've thrown into trash my previous idea with changing Zealotry to Purity of elements for higher resists, it's useless.
2) I've gone back to KingMaker on SG, and with one defensive Purity of Cold, and zeal+Wrath. Defensive to SG is given by Minion resistance stone, instead of Skeletons. I do not feel lack of damage for cleaning of everything.
3) The shield i've changed to Magna Eclipsis, Which gives additional 1000 shield, which procs also from Watcher's eye convert physical to Cold. Lost around 40 flat life bonus, but more ES and Armour, and as i'm using Rumi's Concoction, it gives additional 30-35% physical damage reduction.
4) I've discovered new jewels! for SD Increased damage is not giving real improvement(twice worse comparing to increased casting speed), that's why i'm using double jewels:
- Clean 5% increased casting spead
- Increased 8% casting speed if recently killed
This jewels is quite expensive, but tremendously worth it.
5)Idea with crafted Endurance charges worth it, in case you have good rolled jewelry, constantly running with 2 endurance charges.
5)4 side legion i'm cleaning with 3 rows solo.

UE killed 4 times, in average 1 death/elder only because i'm dumbass:D Delve 330+ depth cleaning easy, 0 deaths, legion T16 dying only from really awfull rolls and Templar+Vaal spawning and dumbass:D
At last, btw, i'm surviving the jump of Minotaur even with strong rolls, so facetanking ACTIVE:D


Question to Kayella and all other experienced SpectroMancers :D
I really don't like the arma brand, it's activation time is just tremendously high, and with the strong mobs 1 second is 1 second before you die:D
I'm just in 2 points from Avatar of Fire, where i will convert all my damage to fire damage, and, in theory, i can go back to storm brand. Will this work correctly with elemental equilibrium?

I mean, you would be doing Fire damage with Storm Brand then, so it would work. It's possible.

in the armor section for the pledge build it says 4 links.

I currently use wand/shield setup with 6 linked rare armor does it have to be 4L or is 6L okay?

also for the pledge build you use a the diadem instead of rare helm with +# minion gem is this because of the mana reserve???

PoB doesn't account for AG. So you'll have to do a work-around like we do with the Unending Hunger jewel.

I generally don't bother with enchants because I hate running lab :D
