[3.21] Cold Conversion Summoner | Build guides for all budgets | (Ghazzy Zoomancer)

Hello.

Really enjoying the medium budget build atm. However, I dont see any Maven videos yet, and so I want to ask: can a medium budget build kill Maven?

Thanks for the build guide so far, dead!

Yeah, she's extremely easy if you can do the memory game.

Okay so I have upgraded a lot of stuff, but my damage is still struggling and I don't understand why... I should be able to smoke hydra in this investment..


You should look into upgrading your gems. You have alot of damage to get there. Just getting quality on everything and 1 additional level on your golems should boost your damage more than 20%.

Gearwise you're doing fine, but you're missing alot of small things like level on gems and quality. All the small things add up fast.
Are you not able to kill Hydra?
Your dps should be more than fine or are you losing your portals too fast?

Since Victario's Charity Laminated Kite Shield with "Grants Level 23 Determination" is unavaiable rn, what can we do? Still run a Victario's and simply find a way to put that gem on the gear or do we really care about that two extra levels (23 to 21) and the extra gem on our gear?

Do we have other options for that? How to get that mod on this shield anyway? Thanks!


You can run Feeding Frenzy on spectres and get an Awakened Cold Pen to level 3(lvl 5 from Chest). This frees up 2 socket slots which you can use for Determination and Molten Shell if you need.

these are not easy to come by, so i really do not want my anime guardian to die now.
my current gear for him is impulsa chest with 50% reduced elemental reflect, gravebind with enfeeble, maw of conquest 19% dmg regained as life
Spoiler
https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Maw_of_Conquest
, +1 curse shoes.
AG has 63k life (27 level)

What can realistically kill him except the sirius?
I mean he did not die yet in any map this league, but i want to know what to avoid.

Also would it be worth it to link him to zombies with 1 support(elemental army, or perhaps something else to keep him alive)

Someone in chat just said that his AG died with meat shield and minion life in the incursion temple, so be careful there.


Shotgun mechanics, corpse explosions and Dot stacks can kill him.
You want him to avoid fights where he can get struck by several AoE mechanics at the same time.
For example, a giga juiced map with like 50% beyond can spawn ~40 big red beyond rings at the same time. If he tanks all of them he gets oneshot.

Bosses you should be mindful off:
- Veratania (Ice Conqueror)
- Primordial Blocks boss
- Mausoleum boss
- Acid Cavern (You got poison immunity on him though)
- Sirus if you don't run Indomitable Army

There's probably more that I don't know off.

Too squishy, 1 mistake and boom. Chimera also 2 shot me during every smoke phase so that was awful.
Since Hatred aura effect be deleled. Can you make a version of pure physical damage spectre and carrion golem?

Hi Dead and veterans here.

Wanted to seek advice and do a check-in on where I can go next in terms of upgrades. I'm currently running the 3 SO, 1 crushclaw version.

I was thinking that my immediate next step would be to get a frostbite ring so I can swap BV into my trigger wand. And then perhaps look to upgrading my helmet to one with +3/minion dmg/hypothermia.

Also, if I wanted to fit vaal molten shell into my setup, what gem should I swap it for, or would the current gems I have still be more ideal

Lastly, as a stretch goal for the league, would getting a headhunter still be something useful for us? I read in the original post about the benefits of headhunter for the build, and I was thinking it might still be useful for clearing maps and scourge mobs. Would this still be the case, or have the changes this league negated some of the benefits of HH.

Thank you, appreciate all the advice on this!



Hi Deadandlivin,

Appreciate your thoughts and advice on this please, many thanks!
How can I make EE work well in my gear, I have a Skin of Lord with EE(I don't have it equipped yet), but I don't know what change I should make beforehand, apart from getting the ring with frostbite.

do I need a ring with fire / light damage?
I was wondering how everyone does with surviability with the latest build using crushclaws. I'm not sure if I'm missing something very critical to the build or if I have unrealistic expectations of the build itself. Currently, I'm effectively unable to do any T15/16 maps, even white/non-alched. The bosses can instant kill my AG and golems in most circumstances. I've had to replace 5 AG from doing white T15 maps so far. I also find that it feels impossible to get close to enemies to use blade vortex for frostbite / EE proc. I mostly just want to make sure that I'm not missing something critical to the build or maybe I just need to try to stack more life overall.
