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

Question: would this build be viable with low-life using shavs and midnight bargain? (Haven't played 3.0 a lot so not sure how ES changed)

if you take a look at my character (TerrorLyeesia) if you look at the gear I'm wearing and mybpassive tree you can see my build is setup for low life conversiotion but I chose to go with a skin of the loyal cause instead of wearing a shavs I can keep 70% of my hp which is 1.1k (450) is reserved from the wand and I have about 6.1k energy shield on top of the life. The biggest reason I chose to go with aegis aurora as my main shield of choice is because with my purity of fire on my resistance during merc difficulty looks something like this 81/80/76/75. And while I have my granite flask and basalt flask on for general mapping I notice my ES harderly every looks like it has been touched.

You can chose to wear a shavs but I see no advantage for it. Atm my goal is to get 2 more pieces of my gear corrupted so I can wear and wield the corrupted energy jewel. And see how much tankier I get vs physical dmg/bleeds as that is the biggest weakness for me since majority of my gear is highly evasion based my armour only comes from flasks interaction with my chest armour of choice.

P.s. the end game goal is a skin of the lords with colors of your perrferance with iron reflexes mod on the skin of the lords so we can turn all the evasion into armour and get even more effective synergy between all my gear and items to work even better in synergy but finding a chest piece like that is going to be extremely hard and well priced for the power it grants.

Low life with shav and midnight bargain with culling strike is definite viable. However it is a different build from this one. There is a post on the witch forum about LL summoner, you can try to refer to that one.

I am crashing so often with this build (and only this) with c00005 error to desktop every 10-20 zones or so. Quite disheartening.

Has anyone experience with this? Why would only a specters build crash and others work fine?

Spectres no longer have their level reduced to the level of the area they are in. Instead, the level of a Spectre is now based on the lowest of either the level of the monster they were raised from, or the maximum level allowed by the skill gem used. This is now indicated on the skill gem.

DAYUM SON

So now that you can't desecrate wickermen or tukohama vanguards with descrate in maps, how are you supposed to get high level spectres?

Is this build instantly dead with 3.0.2?

GGG proving that they just cannot make spectres fun. They fix one thing then break another.

build's dead. move on people

rofl, was just waiting for the update with spectres not playing my summoner and they post this shit... so cool
where can we get highest level wicker/vg without desecrate bug? is there any level map for it?

Started this build last week because I was hyped for the spectre changes, got some decent progress so far.... and now they do this?!?! Whats the point of finally giving summoner builds some quality of life, then instantly taking it away.
