[3.6] Zombiemancer - High Survivability - End Game Viable
" Did you resummon them in your highest level map with a high enough level Desecrate? If you summon spectres in a level 78 area with a level 5 Desecrate you will only have level 35 spectres for example. The only other explanation would be that your spectre gem is too low level. " Im thinking about if it's better to have the Desecrate with a level 1 CWDT in the shield and use the other CWDT at level 2 to keep that whole thing trigger in one instance. The golem would lose the Empower, but that is probably worth it. And there would be room for another trigger gem or a self cast one in the 4-link. |

I have real promblems with shaper. My zombie just die in beam and other stuff. No promblem with other content and i like this build, but Shaper looks like impossible for me (((

Against Shaper I am using Convocation. It summons all your minions to you.
I use it when I see that beam incoming. :) |
|

And I have just a suggestion to this build. Can you hold a "changelog". I really dont know when you are changing something, what exactly changed and I have to search for it. :/
Would be really nice! :) |

Update:
-Split the CWDT setup into two again so the Spirit Offering can consume the corpses from Desecrate in one trigger -Added an Immortal Call to one of these setups for extra defense -Recommended a rare shield instead of the unique one, this makes it more flexible to get the required strength and to cap the resistances. " Did you try all the stuff i suggested in the end game boss section? Shaper should be doable this way. " Sorry, i do post an update like this everytime i change something. I can start to add this to the guide though. |

is it worth using 2 Violent deads if you can still get 1200 strength?
I'm currently just over 1200 and If I change shields to one with strength I can drop a efficient training jewel for a Violent dead and still have over 1200 strength. Last edited by ElJesse#7113 on Mar 15, 2018, 4:16:33 PM

" Sure it worths 100% . Im running 2 violents with 1000strenght ( cause of the +1 zombie of my rare chest ) . Every violent applyies 100% cooldown + 40-45%dmg ( depend on the roll ) Just finished my first Uber aztiri run . Damn . !! my easiest and one portal run ( i used 2 portals cause of the bug that sometimes it doesnt let u pass a door ) comparing my runs with my 99lvl glyphmark ranger , my ice trap chaos saboteur , and with my tukuhamas summoner it was the safest.  IGN = Tominsideeeee |

I would like to submit a suggestion about shields, Shaped shield can hold a suffix for less mana reservation, which could allow you to run your 2 auras without the need of the Enlighten (woot, another skill gem saved, bring back mah enfeeble!), just by slotting them on the shield, linking Hatred with generosity and leaving haste by itself, you'll have mana to keep charging around, just not enought mana to cast zombies. There are other affixes on shaped and elder shield that are REALLY good and very worthy, and its not that hard or expensive as well.
And, of coz, the ultimate shield (if only it can be found on poe.trade), i would say its Atziri's Reflection, but boy oh boy, good luck with that lol. I'm trying out dropping Tireless for the Leadership (aura nodes from templar) and i'll seek to get myself a Shaped shield with less mana reservation on a str base for that juicy extra hp and armor, very excited with the idea now that the frenzy charge has been changed for this build. I'm in love with it. Again, thanks for the build idea and thanks for everybody else bringing up so many great ideas. Leaving a quick question here - Any bestiary gear seems worthy for this build? Perhaps? I didn't check much about them yet |

Thank you for the fast reply and for the changelog!
Really like your build and your ambition. Keep it up :) |

" I just did some guardian runs with 2 violent dead jewels and some with only one. I didnt really notice a difference in clearspeed and damage, so i would suggest to not drop that much strength to use both. Dont forget that strength is a really good stat to have for this build, it gives life, ES and minion damage. " How did your zombies do during that fight? Did you have to recast them? what was your gem setup for them? Last time i tried uber atziri, the zombies got nuked by the flameblasts, but that was back in Harbinger i think. " Good point, havent looked into shaper/elder mods on the shields yet. Kinda busy with testing things on standard, updating the build and also just playing bestiary. Appreciate all the feedback though. I dont see Atziri's Reflection as a good option. No armour, life, strength and curse immunity can be rolled on a flask. I havent looked into any bestiary items, but dont you need several items to make good use of them? If so, i dont think they have a place in this build. |
