I am still trying to figure out how people are getting 1 mil per zombie. Maybe Im reading my POB wrong, but Im hitting a wall around 27k DPS (average damage). I cant seem to bump it and dont know what Im missing. I dont think it's the build guide as many folks havent had issues with it working so I think Im just missing something critical.

Still a fun build, but I really want to try and take on some of the end game bosses. Hard for me to compare against any other builds though since Im a casual off an on player. Maybe this one is overly dated now and I need to find something similar.

I've been following this build, and here's where I am at currently. It's taken some investment, and I still only have an 80% damage Elegant Hubris. Plenty of room to grow, and around 560k+ DPS with zombies. If I switch to specs, I'll get up to 1.4m, but requires switching to Aegis. Either way check out the PoB see if you find what you're missing.

I use 3 specs with the zombies. 2 Stygian Silverbacks, and 1 Host Chieftain linked with blood magic to spam power and frenzy. Guardian has a kingmaker/leer cast as well. Just those changes alone is like 200k dps. Putting this build together is like a jigsaw puzzle, miss one piece and it's crap.

You rock. How critical is it to have the animated guardian and the correct specters? I removed my guardian and have been working strictly with the Zoms and specs.

I also was using Lethal Pride in place of Hubris. It was the only way I could seem to break 1k Str.

Thanks for sharing. Ill take a look at what your POB is and see what I can adjust. Mine is below just in case you wanted to see the mess that it is.

I upgraded to the speed version last night, and here's what that PoB looks:

875K dps per zom

In order to get all the aura's going you'll need a level 4 Enlighten, and an Aul's Uprising that removes mana cost for Pride.

For you zombie build, I'd drop Minion Speed for Ruthless or Brutality. I found with stacking Ghastly Eye Jewel's with the "Minions have X% increased Attack and Cast Speed if you or your minions have killed Recently" to be as effective as Minion Speed (2 or 3 of them), get some that also buff minion damage if you've killed.

A guardian with Kingmaker, Leer Cast, and Victario's Flight adds +50% to critical strike damage, culling strike, fortify, 15% increased damage, and +10% movement speed to every minion, and you.

If you spread some +str items across your jewelry, belt and gloves you should be able to get over 1000 str without using Lethal Pride, and then add in an Elegant Hubris. Even an 80% inc damage one is worth it while you divine/shop for a better one.

Hi, I'm looking at the POBs int he main thread, and I can't tell what the Thread of Hope is supposed to be doing. Which nodes is it helping to allocate in this build?

Hi guys! Great guide.

I tried searching the thread but didn't really find an answer so I'm gonna ask anyway, sorry if it has been answered before:

How do I get enough mana/reduce mana reserve for aspect of avian? I'm running things just like the guide says:

- Dread Banner (+Generosity support)
-->in Gloves

- Flesh and Stone (+Maim)
- Purity of Elements
- Discipline (Vaal)
--> In Armor linked with a +4 enlighten gem

- Aspect of Avian (Weapon)

(also have passive Sovereignty)

Any ideas what I could further do? I'm using Blood Magic support with my Dread Banner in the meantime, which is not ideal :D

[e] I guess the answer is Saqawal's Nest unique armor? Just got one and now it all works out! Hope my survivability didn't suffer too much.

Well, unfortunately your survivability will take a hit. My minions are crushing it, but I get one shotted by Bosses on the regular since I made the swap. Unfortunately this is an outdated guide and the update that was done for Harvest League wasn't even in Harvest, looks like it was standard league with legacy gear - pre nerf. Long story short, I have wasted this entire league trying to make it work and having no luck. I have asked questions repeatedly for no answers, subscribed to the authors thread to ask questions, again no answers. What to do, this is 2 months of my life I will never get back, lol. Looks like Kays Spectres is the way to go for minion build, and she actually updates her thread on the regular. This build was probably awesome last league - its a waste of time for this one. I just cant see how it will work anymore - the 15 Zombies he is boasting in his "update" is NOT possible after the nerfed the Baron helm. I could go on for days, but I will leave it at that. Good Luck, maybe you will have better luck with the "balanced setup" i sure didnt - I miss my Geofri's... sigh, love the minion damage tho. Again, the Minions/Spectres/AG - have never died....its me that gets 1 shotted. :)
