Cold ANIMATE WEAPON Summoner | League-Start & Leveling Guide
hey guys, can someone take a look on my characters gear and what to improve next ?
Hanging on a 1ex budget and it seems a little difficult for me what should I invest for.My progress state is I am now reaching the tier 15/16 maps and facing sirius for the first time. I would like to go for a 6L belly of the beast because on t13/14+ maps I am dying quite often when the mobs are very clustered. But for now it is too expensive. And my aw's started to die a lot too in higher red maps. And the last thing is how important is the animated guardian ? I only taked a little care, I get him some resistance gear and some melee weapon or 1h/shield not more. I personally don't like the guardian but might be important. here are my first thoughts about gear my upgrade: I know that I can improve a bit in my jewels. According to poe ninja it seems cold-aw characters are splitted in two groups. Some are stacking %minion dmg in jewels (and rings)and others added cold/phys dmg for minion. What should I go for ? And have I to decide for one consistent way to max things out ? My helmet is another fairly easy to change item I guess. I will look for a bone helmet with minion life and okayish resi/life stats if possible. My amulet is probably the worst on my gear together with some jewels. Budgetwise I might look for a +1 to all dex skill gems with decent rolled life and resi ? My belt has a little less life. I should spend some time to find a better one with more life and needed resistances. The flasks are also a thing I believe to underestimate a lot. I picked more or less randomly a few defensive ones and checked for curse/blood immunity. --- I know when I improve all the little things I have listed it will push my character. But I can't see any big milestones and may you guys can help me to see them. here is my pastebin: https://pastebin.com/EySHSdBE my Character Absynthe should be open to view via forum thx a lot!

Hey guys, quick question - will Empower lvl4 (lvl5 on skin of the loyal) increase dps or it is still worse than other gems?

" Switch out flesh offering for bone offering, the block and life recovery on block is insanely good. I suggest getting a +2 wand before thinking of amulet, a decent +1 amulet with life and resist is gonna cost you quite abit. For now, get a amulet with high dex and life and an open suffix, so you can craft minion mspd or resist, and anoint ravenous horde instead of grave intentions You dont need a bone helmet, go to trade and buy any helm with +3 minion and minion life, with either life/resist and open affix for crafting, it wont cost you that much. This ensures your AG has a huge amount of life, which makes him almost immortal. Buy a Kingmaker (its pretty cheap this league), and a redeemer-influenced chest with nearby enemies are blinded, let your AG wear them, fortify+culling strike+blind is a very strong offensive and defensive combo for you party For belt, if you cant find a good rolled stygian vise with 90+ life and high double resists for cheap, get a leather belt instead, you will only lose out some damage from a jewel You only need 1 life flask, replace the 2nd life flask with a rumi's concoction. Roll curse and bleed immunity on your basalt and quartz Edit: oh for the 6L belly, I suggest not buying it first, skin of the loyal is perfectly fine Last edited by SoundOfSilence on Apr 7, 2020, 5:38:10 AM

i wondering should I switch to double wand for easier access to trigger socketed spell for QOL and DPS or keeping the shield for 500+ hps. Im still dying to T16 maps which is unfortunate for an 20-25ex build :(

" Try switching to block version of this build. I am still improving mine but it looks really nice. I can facetank deep delirium in T16 maps. Plus you dont care about elemental reflect on maps - just turn off hatred and your minions are immortal again. |

@SoundOfSilence
thank you for the quick response. I think this will help me a lot. cheers | |
" thanks for replying, how do I do the switch to the block version? | |
POB shows me that Increased Critical Damage support is viable choice for second blue gem, it that true? Didn't saw that option was discussed here.
