Hey Ghazzy,
like ur build, wanna try the melee skeletons version mainly for bossing, especially uber elder but have some questions mostly about gear. Also watched the high budget video.
1. About 6 link skeletons, do u think empower lvl 4 would be better than added fire? checked in pob, gives more dps.
2. Do u think SGs would be good for uber elder fight instead of TVs? Cuz still want to do maps rly fast. I understand that TVs deal more boss damage.
3. About elder helmet. Does horror essence mod even affect spectres? Also, for TVs we need minion damage and burning damage and for SGs only minion damage right? And what are the links for pseudo 6 link helm for TVs?
4. Would u consider using incursion sceptre with minions deal increased damage and attack speed mods?
5. Do u think elder amulet with +1 skeleton necessary?
6. Do u think fossil crafted boots with +1 spectre would be better cuz more life, ms and res?
7. Do u think that empower lvl 4 would be better than zombies for AG to survive on uber elder?
8. Kaom's roots important for this build on uber elder fight? Or just personal pref?


Hey,

Cheers!
1) yes, but the difference is insanely small so I didn't feel it to be worth the investment, but sure, it's more dmg.

2) Yes I think SGs will be superior tbh.

3) Yes it gives 30% more elemental dmg to socketed gems which would directly scale them where as "30% more elemental dmg" would not.

4) I would consider that for bosses but keep Brightbeak for mobility/clear speed.

5) No getting 10 max cap on skellies is better due to the 1 sec CD on skellies due to From Dust jewel.

6) Absolutely, it's ultimately a better version of Bones of Ullr

7) Without a doubt

8) Personal pref, I've done it without but it does help.

@DemiGodOfLight:

My PoBs has mostly been as a placeholder as a way to check the trees, I've recently started including gear in it as well. I feel that for many people using PoB it kind of defeats the purpose of having a well written guide attached to it so it's mainly been used as a basic tree checker.

NOTICE:

I've reached a point where I have too many build guides to keep up with responding personally on each comment as I've always done on my threads in the past. I will obviously continue doing this but on the youtube videos instead. I hope you guys will understand, sadly I'm not a fulltime streamer and for me to keep build guides like this posted this was an inevitable result!

Thanks for quick reply on my post. Gonna work on that horror helmet and off colouring vis mortis.
Hey Ghazzy thanks for the build. Played last league and enjoyed a lot. What can i do to improve? I'm a little noob and don't know how to do things xD. Again thanks :)
Hey is it just me or does it feel really hard to play without a cast when damage taken link with immortal call? Currently sitting at 6k hp and 1k energy shield Still keep getting one shotted.
I don't see how we can incorporate it either. (maybe dropping zombies and fortify on the guardian and minion life link?)

What do you think guys

Hey Ghazzy, why you pick Mistress of Sacrifice instead commander of Darkness? Seems that the 40% dmg increase on Mistress don't apply to the minions, while commander do.

And what about Puppet master?

Comes down to a matter of personal taste actually :)

I was also looking at Elemental Focus for the mage skeletons. Seems that this gem on level 20 increases the dps by 50% while Iron will increases it by only 14,3%. I was thinking on using Elemental Focus but then I was thinking on a substitute for The Baron. Do you have any suggestion?

Hey,

I actually used it for some time, though when combined with Victario's Charity the lightning ones actually gets to shock which increases the damage even further when not using Ele focus which removes the possibility to shock! It's a matter of taste though, EF is strong AF!


You can skip Baron and get an Elder helmet with like Minion dmg supports on for spectres!


Quick heads-up:
I don't usually respond on forum threads anymore since I have too many to keep up with on top of twitter/Discord/youtube, so usually it's faster & smoother to hit me up via the YouTube video for quick answers! <3

Animate Guardian Gear is very straight forward thanks to the Dyadus nerf in patch 3.3:

Solar Guard (Spectres):
Leer Cast
Dying Breath
Ambus Charge
Victario's Flight
Southbound


Is this an error in in the Skill gems & setups part? I don't understand what Spectres have to do with the list of Animate Guardian gear :D

I also don't understand this part...

We are not using any skilltree points nor any support gems that affects our cast speed of summoning skeletons, instead we are scaling this from our Ascendancy tree via aura stacking Commander of Darkness, combined with Mistress of Sacrifice.


...as Commander of Darkness is not listed in the Ascendancy Nodes part of the guide. Is it just something left behind from an older version of the build, where you included Commander of Darkness?
@Dawnblue

Matter of taste tbh, I will update the guide asap. Thank you for noticing.
