Spectres are: 2x Carnage Chieftain and 1x Host Chieftain (you can swap that for Defiler or Archer for Ele Weakness or Projectile Curse).

On PoB with testing via Knives, Added Fire does the most damage with EE on Lightning would that be the same for our ghost? Probably added fire, as uber elder doesn't have the highest phys resistance so converting half to lightning is probably worse. This is assuming you use a lightning spell Atm I am testing Vulnerability curse on hit, I think we are penetrating enough cold. Maybe Brutality will come into the mix - Who knows.

On PoB with testing via Knives, Added Fire does the most damage with EE on Lightning would that be the same for our ghost? Probably, but it’ll take one wrong step with death walk to give +25% fire res with EE. Added fire may be better in theory, in practice I think cold pen outperforms it. Ailments and shattering in particular for delves are great, but it’ll depend on your personal preference EK is a good way to test, I recommend PoB with all the minion conversions/extra damage set up with EK to see what works best Your vis mortis isn’t doing much afaik, you’d be much better off dropping it and the host chieftan (phantasms use controlled destruction so power charge isnt great) in favor of something more defensive like a Belly, Lorweave, or Kaom Last edited by cbasz on Sep 26, 2018, 5:42:18 AM	Posted by cbasz on Sep 26, 2018, 5:37:43 AM Quote this Post
I'm quite comfortable with spamming Storm Burst (it triggers all my "when I cast minion skills) so EEíng Lightning is ok. Swapping vis mortis into belly/weave is a nice option if I end up losing against Shaper/U.Elder we shall see, cant use Kaom though due to my 6L. - - - Sidenote: On minion power charges are 200% crit chance so with control its still 500% Last edited by magicdownunder on Sep 26, 2018, 9:43:09 AM	Posted by magicdownunder on Sep 26, 2018, 7:19:13 AM Quote this Post

Might be interesting to pick up Death Attunement or even Conduit in that case. However, I don't see any way to increase crit multi so the phantasms wil be stuck at the base 130%. At 3 power charges (30% chance to crit), you're looking at 9% more damage on average, up to you to decide if it's worth sacrificing life (either the passive points or the chest armour) for that. Another point to consider is that you're often renewing your phantasms in both mapping and bossing, which makes them lose all of their charges, so it's quite difficult to maintain 3 of each on them.

What fossils did you use to craft your helm?	Posted by mshimmyb1 on Sep 26, 2018, 3:25:40 PM Quote this Post
Thanks for the great build! have had a lot of fun with it .. this feels like it has been my most successful character ever. Up to running T10 or so maps w/ ease. Just completed uber lab for the first time ever on any character. I've added a vaal summon skellie in my +2 minion helmet, and drop some popcorn on any bosses.... at that point its just spam and run to stay alive and let the minnions do the dirty work. one thing I didn't see, what did you suggest for 4th ascendency? Looked at your character and pastebin, but looks like it only has 3? Also, how the heck do you get your HP up and keep those resists? I can't get that balance well... thanks again!

I'm trying out two minor nodes for a little bit more minion life	Posted by Stagsnetti on Sep 26, 2018, 11:26:28 PM Quote this Post
Im not seeing that many frenzy charges from the chieftan guys. What you think about using the Death Bishop as a spectre to curse mobs with frostbite?	Posted by mshimmyb1 on Sep 27, 2018, 12:11:06 AM Quote this Post
Or maybe something like a Whipping Miscreation that does vuln on hit?	Posted by mshimmyb1 on Sep 27, 2018, 12:15:43 AM Quote this Post

What you think about using the Death Bishop as a spectre to curse mobs with frostbite? link him with blood magic. The chieftain has a really low mana pool. Whipped miscreations, I'd rather no spectre.	Posted by Stagsnetti on Sep 27, 2018, 2:27:05 AM Quote this Post
