Maybe he's going for over-cap cold res on minions, for Shaper I guess? It's actually unnecessary. My spectres run around with 60 cold res and still do Shaper easily. You just need life regen and block for them.

Our minion movement speed is so damn fast, I'll bet he's still capped even with those gloves.

I'd still like to raise the issue of HotG. While there is one person in this thread who says he's managed to clear it fully with spectres (no insanity craft and/or scorching ray), I personally still haven't managed to kill the caustic arrow grandmasters.

What is your experience? Did anyone else actually manage it now with T17 non-downscaled spectres?

I managed to do HotG on my third attempt using 2 TVs and 1 WM. In my experience, the grandmasters that can kill your spectres will kill them no matter what level they are, so in the end I didn't bother leaving for higher level maps, and just resummoned on the spot.

The Caustic Arrow ones are indeed a pain in the butt. My advice is to rush in and try to convocate right on top of them. Haste/Vaal Haste can help a lot.

The only grandmaster I found to be impossible as a summoner was !!!DanziGG!!! (the lightning arrow guy). He will annihilate you and your spectres from a distance before you can really do anything. So just hope that he doesn't spawn on your run.

Shaper annihilated, Uber Atziri annihilated (first attempt ever, dropped the Axe). These specters are borderline stupid seeing how they trivialize absolutely everything in the game...

Only thing I haven't cleared so far is HoGM, the caustic arrow asshat instantly melts the spectres into oblivion.

Using 3 TV and 1 Wickerman with Tukohama's fortress, only switch to 4 TV for shaper for shits and giggles.

Corrupted guardians with +life and +dmg are a total joke with this setup.

Somone have video spectre + headhunter? I need to know how its worth with this build on clip.

For those of you considering running necro aeg, don’t bother. Just ran it for a couples of levels and I found myself a bit too squishy for the coolness of having twice the amount of totems.

hello, Can Skullhead take place of BOR with AG? It has better block chance than BOR

I'm pretty sure it won't work. Skullhead doesn't give you block chance, it give it to your minions. So if you put it on an AG, it won't give the AG block chance, it will give that to the AG's minions. The armour / evasion / life stats are all far superior on BoR, the mana stat doesn't matter, and you're swapping elemental resists for endurance charges.
