[3.x - Discontinued for now] Burning Spectres - Torch the Atlas - HC Shaper, Elder, Uber Atziri

Killed shaper and uber atziri with this build. Very good build and pretty low budget if you can grab a 5 link vis early

This is what im starting to worry about honestly. It is very powerful for its cost. I worry they'll nerf it way down. We'll see. Sunder or ED will be my backup starters if they nerf this to the ground :/

Hey guys,

Been playing this build since I got back after 4.5 years lol. Been enjoying it thus far.

My main question is what is the IDEAL 6L gem set up for Solar Guards Vs. T. Vanguards? I initially thought elemental focus prevented burn damage but found out that burn damage is not an ailment. Im torn between ele focus, burn damage support and controlled destruction. Thoughts?


Also, if anyone would care to look at my profile and point out any major weaknesses gear/gem wise it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Solar Guards: Raise Spectre / Spell Echo / Controlled Destruction / Minion Damage / Elemental Focus / Greater Multiple Projectiles.

Tukohamas Vanguards: Raise Spectre / Minion Damage / Burning Damage / Elemental Focus / Swift Affliction / Minion and Totem elemental resistance.

As for your character... weak resist rolls on gloves and belt. No spell block on shield or amulet. Some flasks are missing quality.

Your Animated Guardian isn't going to survive guardians / shaper / uber without minion life at least, and probably empower as well. Losing the zombies won't matter much at high levels, they don't live long enough to worry about anyway.

No movement skill? Whirling blades or shield charge is a must IMO.

Jewels should be life / mana / minion damage mods, in that order.

can this build (TV boss killer version) be run with biscos and 2x ventors?

Thanks for the reply GrimJack. I do use whirling blades, looking at my char screen I see that it is showing my alternate weapon/shield. The advancing fortress/shield combo is just holding gems to level. The Scourge/shield combo is what I use.

My res are all around the 104 mark. Is there any value going above this? Chaos res is at 40 and can use some work.

Thanks for all the info.

Well, good thing I played with it last season, Necromancer is nerfed below shit tier now.

Did I warn you guys about huge nerfs on spectres and 50% offering nerf? now who's laughing haha!

rip

told you so etc.

As much as I liked having max block with one press of a button, this is a well deserved nerf.
