Hello, I want to buy Skin of the Loyal. Tell me what colors for the stones should be?


The choices are listed in the build guide as follows:
=======

Cold Conversion - Animate Weapon Supports

Damage supports in order of efficiency:
- Added Cold Damage
- Minion Damage
- Multistrike - switch this out if mana sustain is an issue
- Elemental Damage with Attacks - must have Triad Grip Gloves on first
- Clear speed: Melee Splash

And choose one of these:
- Elemental Focus - great damage but can't freeze/shatter corpses
- Hypothermia - recommended to use for defensive boost of freeze.

Other supports that are less good:
- Ruthless - every third hit deals extra, much less consistent- especially with Multistrike
- Deathmark - good for bosses but needs a hotkey
- Melee Physical Damage - least raw DPS

Tried changing the build to a fire version since it can benefit from nearly -80% elemental resistances + have a slot for enduring cry for extra tankiness.

Added pride/anger/added fire damage support/immolate support/combustion support.

Didn't have any luck damage fell off by A LOT.

Maybe interesting for a more knowledgeable person to make it work, since of the new spectres has broken attack speed for fire based damage. Supposed to be good on paper but bricked :( RIP

I downloaded your current build and then set the configuration to what is suggested in the first post and added the Lingering Blades for you.

I am seeing 131k per blade (which sounds about right at your level).

Here is the POB link so you can see the configuration set up and then adjust it as you see fit

Is Primordial Bond worth it if I take ClayShaper?

20% and 40% effect on regen and flat phys sounds good.
Could you add a screenshot for every unique jewel where you recommend putiing them because i don't get the description
I've been playing this build, and despite some early struggles with health it is starting to reach the point where it hits critical mass. I've got some questions I'm hoping someone can answer, though:

1) Raise Zombie gets dropped from the build somewhere along the way, but flesh offering is kept. Is flesh offering really worth more than 7 (at my current level) zombies?

2) I haven't made the switch to cold conversion yet (that last socket is proving stubborn about turning green) so I'm not really using the cold curses at this point. Is there something I can do that would allow me to feel like I'm doing something? Right now I feel like I'm just steering the horde. Which is fine, I guess, but I feel like I could be contributing more to the efforts of my little army. I tried blade blast for using up the extra blades, but it was super underwhelming.

3) I'm using Animated Guardian wrong. I mean, I must be. It dies so often that I'm reluctant to give it gear worth more than 1 alchemy orb. I feel like I have the right passives, and the gem is level 18 at the moment, so I was honestly expecting him to be a little tougher. Is there something I should be doing to protect him? I kind of feel like he should be protecting me, not the other way around, but since I need him to buff my other minions I'd like him to not be dead all the time.

I'm super-new to minion builds (this is my first) so the learning curve is definitely real.
