recharge. so most of the time i run around with 3900hp. which gets me killed

fast. i only got 3ex and that wont get me better gear :(

I think you'll be fine even in SSF standards.

In terms of setting yourself up, you obviously know what you're doing, you've played tons. But reverting your gear isn't going to be too much trouble. To start, aim for 75+ life on all gear (except the weapon) and resists on them as well.

Here's how I prioritize gear from scratch:

- Amulet has ALL missing attributes and life.
- 5/6 link has lots of life
- Boots have the type of movement mod you like and life.
- EVERYTHING else is easy to fill in with 75+ life and resists. Rings, belts, and shields are really easy resist fillers.

So though your gear currently has an ES focus, the basics should be hard to find. Then you can start min/maxing your gear after that to get the bonus mods and implicits you find tantalizing.

90+ life mods start rolling on most gear around item level 64. So the gear you're looking for just needs a patient grind. Hang in there. (Also, nice Violent Dead jewels. I miss them.)

I seem not to understand the The Agnostic key stone because it seems counter intuitive to sacrifice all my ES (why don't I have pure armour gear then?) for 16 life per second? A second is half an eternity in PoE after all and 16 life are nothing.

ok i changed my gear a bit to get more life, and picked up wicked ward and that made a big dif in how the es recharges. the es is almost full all the time.
i didb t16 maps and do ok till i get to the boss. died a lot but i kill some of them. now if i could just find some ex. i could get some better gear, but since i started playing this game way bk, i only ever found 10 all together :(

Hey Elocara!

We don't use The Agnostic but it's really strong for builds that have both big mana and life pools. It has some really strong synergies with certain setups.

Question:
Mr. OP or anyone really, but why don't we use Mont''s Grasp? That explosion damage is super gnarly for clearing out mobs. Using PoB it says that the zomb damage is 50+k with mont vs 30+k without. Meaning with my 9 Zomb it would be 270k total with 9 Z's buty with the 4 its 228k or so BUT that doesnt include the splash damage. Plox help! Otherwise this build is so darn fun! Thanks and thanks in advance.

Hey helloaccount!

(I'm replying to your post on the 3.13 thread. Feel free to keep using the 3.12 version of the build if you like.)

You can use any uniques you like. For the sake of freedom, I don't like requiring any gear for people to use. Mon't's has it pros an cons for sure. Having 9 zombies the taunt compared to 4 is a hard choice to make when it comes to the clear speed. There really isn't a wrong answer there at all. When a unique has even pros and cons, use what you like. Scratch your itch as long as you like ;).

I'm glad you're having such a good time! This is my oldest guide. It's changed a lot over time, but zombies are just too fun to let go of :). Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate it. And ask anything you like, ya?

Hey Wrecker,

thanks for clearing that up, I must have followed a wrong version of the skill tree!

It's an easy mistake to make Elocara! Don't worry. If you find any errors (like if that was in one of my posted trees or something), definitely let me know.

unmodified gems...

Hi Wrecker, why are unmodified gems important?

Loving the build so far, my seven year old and I just hit level 66 and our gear is coming along!

I had an awesome night! My son and I hit Act 9. Got my gear somewhat respectable, all res capped and tanking right along. I did pull the CWDT and put in a vaal skelly linked with the feeding frenzy and golem, it works really well. Here's our gear so far:

And then...I pulled this off a ritual and got 6 sockets in under ten jewllers:


Followed by this just minutes later, just need some chrome to color it properly and it's time for maps!:


This build is a breeze, thanks for the guide.
