💀3.15💀 iLL3aT’s Cold Skeleton Warriors/Archers/Mages ❆ League Starter ❆ All Content ❆

What do you think about switching the Triad Gloves to Fire Conversion, so you can use Alternate Skeleton Archers and then build into Firewall with ignite.

Firewall damage seems really good and skeletons shooting through it should be even better for clear then.

@KillerKookie - Focus on getting gem links - I'll pick up white gear that has 2b2r sockets linked for example and gem levels. Those two are all you need to get through the story. Pick up essences of fear, and use those on any wand to get a big boost too.

@Navezz - Both clear and bossing are good - clear will naturally be a bit worse than spectres (melee vs ranged). I'd say decide based on playstyle - more active? play skeletons.

@thomzon - Agreed.

@Sazzbot - Reddit is saying Sentries are 40-50% worse? I'd still say Sentries are top tier but will need a bit more investment to get going.

@SimonAdebisi - Probably 10 ex to get through wave 20, depending on the map? Simu is one of those things where damage scales harder than anything else, since with low damage, support minions start getting overwhelmed in later waves.

@lobski - Reroll ele reflect (or what I do is trade it to my friend who plays phys for one of his maps). It's less work than switching.

@wsbisev - Splitting would be good, depending on how smooth it feels. And then either champ or guardian since necro is all about that +2 levels. Offhand: probably a stat sceptre or a shield even. United seems meh. I'd be interested in doing that as a second character for science though.

Second post - yep, missed the alt qual. Which jewel though?

@agarwean - See top of page 66

#sacoroto - Pretty sure that's your mana, but that's rarely ever full since skellies are expensive on a six link.

@cennturista69 & kEvS - Probably won't work since you casting walls means that you can't proc EE due to both you and minions dealing fire damage - a HUGE DPS loss. There are no ways to cheese it like with avatar of fire either.

@Mindsmog - Nerfed into the ground yes (50% nerf), but they're still fine. Good league starter on the cheap and can scale with investment.

@sacoroto - Not quite sure on how splitting steel's alt qual works either. If someone figures it out (I'll forget) let me know.

Is Carnage and host chieftain the recommended spectres then?

thanks for your answer , think i may go with this build in Heist, will you be updating the skill tree for 3.12?

It's still a 3.10 pob.

Can't wait for 3.12 full update, I intend to use this as a league starter.

Hello, Are you working on updating this with a skeleton archer variant.

I'm currently looking for anyone who is theorycrafting around skeleton archers aswell and it said on page 1 you were working on it, Hoping for good results your guide seems very solid and youve put alot of work into it.

Hi, I have put everything into 1 PoB as starter build - tree is still 3.10 as author linked old PoB.
I hope we can improve mine PoB with author blessing and get this ready before League Starts.

Please comment on leveling section - any tuning appriciated.

Leveling section is not yet imported, as I wanted to get some feedback from players who played this build.

Idea is to make a complete PoB with all stuff for newbies.

so it really was outdated. my pob fork wanted to update it but i thought it already was.
mmm league starts in a few hours

Hello, probably a dumb question but how do you make this build ''skeleton archers''? As the default skill gem is for warriors, and there's a jewel to turn them into skeletal mages, but I can't find anything similar for archers? Thanks
