Witch - [3.13] SPECTRE SUMMONER (2021 Edition) Necromancer Build. BEST League Starter! + VIDEO GUIDE! - Forum

hey dude, thanks for the build and sharing your experience. as a hc-player i got a couple of questions and i got no clue how to search only this build thread - so, sorry for that in advance. anyways, as already mentioned i play in hc league and i was wondering if necromantic aegis is worth it, because i would pref to just get a Lioneye's Remorse and having 200 more hp and 2k armour. also, i do not like to charge into a group of mops without a shield just to get that elemental equilibrium proc - to me this just sounds like suacide in hc.. so my questions are, 1. is it worth it even in hc and whatelse should spend these points on the skill atlas if i decide against it. perhaps more life and armour nodes from the maurauder start? what would you do if you want to play realativly save? thanks in advance for your help, and sorry if someone already asked something like this. best regards, a necro fan :)	Posted by Oddiseee on Jul 22, 2019, 4:04:51 AM Quote this Post

I'm thinking about starting one. Can you at least confirm if you're using a Witch-based character (so I can start leveling one)? Thanks!

AngryRoleplayer, I've followed your guide as closely as I could, and it looks like "most" of my gear is similar to the guide, but PathofBuilding is telling my my Spectre's Beam attack (Solar Guards) is doing 79k damage. When I look at your build's POB, it shows about 227k. The Fireball attacks are even worse: mine are 130k, while yours are 756k!!! I was able to take out the Shaper, with a good Aurabot in support, only dying once. Seemed fairly fast, but I'm not sure if I'm ready for Uber Elder. Would appreciate it if you could take a quick look at my build and tell me where I went wrong: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Haverhill/characters?characterName=Desdemona_DeVille Many thanks!

Overall a very mediocre gear. No spectre chest, no good jewels, no minion damage on helm https://www.twitch.tv/angry_roleplayer All builds: http://www.angryroleplayer.com/path-of-exile-builds/ https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2143469	Posted by Angry_Roleplayer on Jul 22, 2019, 2:50:42 PM Quote this Post
I'm not sure I follow. The character is Desdemona_Deville. She's using Vis Mortis and the Helm has 20% minion damage. I agree some of the jewels aren't as potent as the guide's, but I put a lot of emphasis on +7% life on many of them, as I was getting 1-shot/off-screen way too much. Total life is 7.2k, and ES is 1.2k. Do the jewels make that much difference on damage? I used my last few skill points for some "Life and Armor" nodes. I'm wondering is I should use them for "Minion Damage and Accuracy" and "Spiritual Aid" instead? There are 3 available that add +35% to minion damage, and +70% to minion accuracy, if that matters. The build is quite fun to play! Even with this level of damage, it clears T15 maps easily, and T16's aren't too challenging until the Boss shows up. In parties, I have no issues at all. Appreciate the feedback! EDIT: with the skill tree changes, Beam is now 83k, and Fireball 137k, with life falling to 6.9k Last edited by Haverhill on Jul 22, 2019, 3:07:11 PM	Posted by Haverhill on Jul 22, 2019, 3:03:13 PM Quote this Post

For the helm you need elder helmet with minion damage 5L. https://www.twitch.tv/angry_roleplayer All builds: http://www.angryroleplayer.com/path-of-exile-builds/ https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2143469	Posted by Angry_Roleplayer on Jul 22, 2019, 3:44:04 PM Quote this Post
hello angry_roleplayer, guess i should have started my last post in the same way, cause it seemed, or at least i assume, that you didn't even noticed my request. If it doesn't make to much effort i would greatly appreciate a few words on that topic and how you would build in hardcore league, or what you would do differently. thank you very much for your feedback	Posted by Oddiseee on Jul 22, 2019, 4:39:55 PM Quote this Post

For bosses it's not very useful. For mapping it's huge advantage though. https://www.twitch.tv/angry_roleplayer All builds: http://www.angryroleplayer.com/path-of-exile-builds/ https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2143469	Posted by Angry_Roleplayer on Jul 23, 2019, 4:17:01 AM Quote this Post
I found this jewel, and thought it might be interesting: But, it really isn't any help. It makes ALL of your Spectres limited to 20 seconds each! I was able to spawn 6 total, but I don't think that matters at all. FYI... Last edited by Haverhill on Jul 30, 2019, 5:35:44 PM	Posted by Haverhill on Jul 30, 2019, 5:25:22 PM Quote this Post
