Fantastic build.
I've been clearing T15/16 maps, and the slave drivers are destroying everything in their path.
It's a very fast, super fun build.

However, I feel like I'm really squishy, and I'm not sure how to improve this.

I'm currently running Wrath/Zealotry/Flesh and Stone.
MoM and EB from the Devouring Diadem.
Only 4.9k life right now. 2.4k ES.

What could I do to improve my defenses?
I should get more life obviously, but is there anything else I could do?

Also, what do you guys think of Empower level 4? I've linked it to my spectre 20/20 gem. So my spectres are currently level 23.
However OP isn't using empower in his guide, and I haven't tested it in POB, so I'm not sure.

so pledge of hands build is stronger?
Hi everyone!
Thanks kayella for such an amazing guide and build :)

So I have burned all my Chromatics and can't seem to get on my pledge 6 Blues.

Can I play with 4Blue 2 Red and a full Blue Vis Morris?
(Basically swapping the gems/items)

I believe not but...back to farming Chromatics right?

Thanks

Unfortunately, the blue sockets need to be on the staff. Is your staff 6-linked already? If not, you could use the Vorici method to get 6 blues. Otherwise, you'll just have to keep spamming chromes.

If you have the currency to buy all the items, yes.

The wand build is more a league starter and can be completed with a low amount of currency.

Level 23 Raise Spectre only gives spectres 6% more damage. Compared to 20/20 Ele Focus with 49% more.

For increased survivability, drop Zealotry, and put Temp Chains + Blasphemy.

Do Slave Drivers shock enemies? I just downloaded Path of Building to mess around with and aren't too sure how to get the most accurate picture of my dps.


In short, they can shock. However, the amount of shock they apply is insignificant on endgame bosses because of their large health pools. Trash mobs die quickly anyway.

So in my PoB, I leave 'shock' unticked.

Hey, i have a question. Why do you link spell echo with the spectres?



"
Greater Spell Echo causes supported spells to repeat twice (instead of once), but has no cast speed modifier (instead of 51-70% more cast speed). Repeats deal more Spell Damage and have increased Area of Effect per Repeat. Can combine with Spell Echo Support, that adds 3rd repeat with 105% more Damage.

So if i dont have currency for Auls amulet it's better to drop Zealotry or Haste?

And then what can be good substitue for slot?

BTW what is the purpose of using Dread banner?


In the updated version, I suggest Solstice Vigil and Temp Chain/Blasphemy. I dropped Zealotry to fit it in.

Dread Banner gives a defensive buff through "nearby enemies have 21% less accuracy rating"

Update to Pledge of Hands build

I have optimised the build to improve survivability while still having good DPS. The passive tree is unchanged. I've taken off Aul's Uprising, but there are other expensive items, so the cost is not significantly lower.

Here is the simplified build guide. I will be writing a fully fleshed out guide for this soon.
