Thoughts on running Aul's Uprising for a free Determination in an effort to make our Summoners tankier??

Just downed Shaper with 391K Shaper/Elder DPS and was able to face tank his energy beam for a little. Was surprised at how easy the fight was to boot!!

Moreover, was able to face tank all T16 maps along with the trashmobs on the Shaper map, didn't even notice if my health went down any during this time either.

It appears as if we may be overestimating how much DPS we need to melt everything quickly on end game content, and may be wise to look on how much beefier we can make ourselves.

Caveat: haven't done Uber Elder yet, bet I'll melt him quick too!!

Can't wait for the Solar Guard alternative setup!

Currently running zizaran/steelmage SG but dying occasionally in T16s, looking for something safer but still speedy. Some people in here mentioned they found Slave Drivers a bit slow in comparison?

Would be awesome to have a pro/con for each spectre choice so we wouldn't need to personally try them all ><

Fantastic guide btw the amount of effort you are putting in here is amazing.

edit: oh I'm also super stoked you're trying an SSF run, which is where I'm playing ATM (equipping qual and IIQ for jewels atm [got the shield that way], farming jewel div cards). trying to get the guts to annul my wand before multimodding from +1 all spell skills ><

While SG fireballs do cover more area in conjunction with GMP, SDs have significantly higher DPS to the point where it's the best minion to run far and away for T16 map clears.

As for getting tankier and after looking at your gear:

Switch to W&Sv2 for certain, get a nice beefy shield with high HP/whatever res/increased block chance, Rumi's Concoction, and Mistress of Darkness Ascendancy. The latter two alone adds a minimum of 35% attack block change, and can be found for relatively cheap.

hrmmm had a crown of the tyrants drop, it seems like it could be good for ag, add flat lightning to all minions,hrmm would ruin my ee though with arm brand

Anybody had the time to check Vaal Risen Advocate? The lightning version is stronger than slave driver when your spectre is level 84+. Any level below that and slave driver wins in raw damage

How much dps are you losing going from V2 wand from V1 wand. Check out my gear right now. I have about 2 ex worth of currency. Is it worth swapping to V2 and going with a life V2 build W/S?

Is it a big deal losing the power frenzy charges as well as flesh offering? Or is the survivability much more reliable with block vs dodge?

Here's a video of W&S v2 directly from the PoB: 4 spectres (non-delve chest), Mistress of Sacrifice, Bone Offering.

I don't think anything hits me (block working?).

Not a big deal at all in my experience.

Lost about 350K Shaper/Guardian DPS from not proccing Frenzy charges along with no Commander of Darkness nor Flesh Offering, and still melted everything on T16 maps. One shots on W&Sv1 are now 2-4 shots on W&Sv2, and was able to survive Shaper energy beam for a split second.

Sitting at 391K Shaper/Guardian DPS with Feeding Frenzy active and and EE procced. Add another 210K DPS if Increased AoE is swapped out with Concentrated Effect.

P.S. I don't ever proc EE on trash mobs because they almost always die before it even takes effect, and that leaves us at 237K DPS!!
