Thanks!
How do I get the +1 skele on the chest?

It's a veiled crafting mod. If you don't have it/want to try to get it (it's a bit of work) I'd look at getting a crafter to do it for you. Someone like: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2037371

Are the convokating wands better than having sceptre's/wand's like the below item which has double damage modifier?

What's the difference between this build and

this one, pros/cons wise? I went this build but I am thinking of switching to the other one since it just seems better?

I started with that build and then swapped to this. Personally, that build feels a little all over the place. The creator is doing a lot of testing of the build on his non-league characters, which is fine, but it doesn't help much to know how it does in league.

I find that multistrike is way more damage and reliable for bosses then ruthless.

Why tho?

Cuz i tested both and bosses seem to die even faster with multistrike over ruthless. Just feels better to me

Same here, multi feels more consistent to me. Maybe it's just preference though.

Ahh I see, any reason why you swapped?

I finished leveling this build and recently got into Maps, its really good even with somewhat crappy gear. I was thinking of getting the Scourge claw like the build says but i dont think that will increase the damage of my minions? It says X % increased minion damage if you`ve hit recently, do my minion hits count as if I hit or am i just dumb?

Would you guys consider this a lazy build? Sometimes I just want to mostly watch instead of play the game too and press a lot of buttons

I think this build has a very relaxed style of play. You cast 'Summon Skeletons' from out of range and let them chase down the enemies. These skeletons go a long ways off screen doing damage. I can't think of a time that I got to the end of a Vaal Instance and a boss was still standing. For a long time I only had one button mapped to a skill until I added 'Flesh Offering' to the second.

It also has a very relaxed style in upgrading equipment. You start out with a simple item that works and upgrade gradually as opportunities present themselves. I know that is true of most builds, but this one is easy to res cap and does not have much require stats for the equipment. I am sure that this would be a great SSF build, but I have not tried that out myself.

P.S. Follow the initial instructions and get a 'Vaal Summon Skeleton' as soon as you can, it makes killing bosses trivial.

Hey so I was hopping for someone to look at my build through pob I'm on xbox trying this build out and I feel like I'm hitting a wall I feel wicked squishy with this build I had a problem fighting 3rd al hezim the eriadicator destroyed me hope someone can help!!
