Hi Kay,

I wanted to suggest a different setup for the 1-Cluster build. For Slave Drivers it gives the same DPS, but you gain 2 passives. For Redemption Sentries/Knights it gives better DPS and you gain 2 passives. Those passives can be used for either better DPS or more life or whatever. Also, the cluster jewels are MUCH cheaper, only a few chaos each.

Spoiler

This is only good for the 1-cluster build, it loses DPS against the 2-Cluster build. The cluster setups rely on 2 things to boost DPS - increased Aura Effect from Vengeful Commander, and increase Critical strike/multiplier. But with only 1 cluster, you just don't get enough Critical Strike / Multiplier to make a big difference. Especially with RS as their base Crit is only 5% (Slave Drivers base crit is 6% so they are slightly better). If you go with 2 cluster setup, then the critical stacks enough to make a huge difference and that is definitely the route to go. However, if you are only using 1 cluster, there is a better setup.

Instead of going critical, we instead boost the aura effect even higher. For this, we can use a 8-passive Large Cluster Jewel with 2 jewel sockets, Overshock, Vengeful commander, and ANY other 3rd notable. The last notable will be a suffix so it will be positioned at the end of the cluster and we won't allocate it. So this is how we gain 2 extra passive skills. In other words, on an 8-passive large jewel, we only allocate 5 passives instead of 7.

For the medium cluster jewels, we use a 4-5 passive Medium Cluster Jewell with 1 jewel socket, Vengeful commander, and First Among Equals.

This setup will boost DPS, give 2 extra passives, and costs a LOT less.

One thing to note is that the notable "Overshock" DOES boost the shock effect from your skitterbots (it shows 54% boost to shock effect in tooltip). So the shock effect is effectively 23.85% (15% x 1.54). This will have to be manually changed in PoB.

If you want to see an example of this, you can look at my character here:

https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/wasabexx/characters (WasabeMinion)

https://pastebin.com/G1XKcfsd

Hope this gives another idea if anyone prefers the 1-cluster setup.

Interesting idea! I think those cluster jewels will be a lot cheaper than my version.

I made a slight different version of yours. It has a bit more DPS, more life, less ES (no mom) https://pastebin.com/xWMvtk7X

The plan for 3.11 is no MOM because taking big hit = 0 es = can't flame dash/dash out of trouble!


By the way, the single cluster plan (not cheap build):
RS has 2.75M DPS (no vaal haste), 98k life, 11k leech, 2k regen
Player has 7.6k life & 711es (no MOM). VMS. endurance changes from enduring composure, 49/10 block (with rumi's, no bone offering).

I'm waiting for patch notes before I share builds. Might be a big change.

I was looking around along these lines and came up for an option for S&S.

Swap the lightning for cold so you can get Cold-Blooded Killer instead of Overshock. Leaves you free to get a different life notable.

Doesn't work like that, the other notable gets placed between jewel sockets. You will need 3 notable cluster, which is more expensive

Also not sure if on kill effects trigger on minion kills. Pretty sure they don't

And if you're getting 3 notable cluster might as well take Blanketed Snow for big damage

If anyone want to practice levelling. I have updated the levelling guide for Act 1 - 4.

Walkthrough should be smoother/faster. Also changed spectre to Cannibal Fire-Eater for more DPS.

Notable progression works better with DPS focus.
1. Enduring Bond
2. Lord of the Dead
3. Heart and Soul
4. Death Attunement
5. Sacrifice
6. Spiritual Command
7. Quick Recovery
8. Indomitable Army

Levelling tree in https://pastebin.com/dCDzzsXw

I am doing a test run in SSF (character: kaytttttnttntnt). Deathless so far and no time I felt in danger. No spectre died. one zombie die against piety when she did the spinny beam.

Holy Flame Totem is the most important thing in the build! It gives 6% regen and adds good DPS. It will also pull agro.

If you try this update. Please let me know how it is.

Spoiler

In act 1, use holy flame totem and SRS. Totem gives 6% heal for you and minions. Don't use zombies yet.

In act 2, you will get skitterbots. Link them with infernal legion gem. They will burn and kill most monsters. Keep using totem and SRS.

In act 3, you will replace SRS with Cannibal Fire-Eater spectres. Keep using totem. Start using zombies.

In act 5, you will switch to Slave Driver spectres.

Hi Kay, great job with guide! Pretty amazing this has reach past 1,000 pages and the attention to details is simply staggering.

Would like to ask more experienced players here, how would this build hold up against A8 Sirus in Day 2/Day 3 league start conditions without heavy investment in the cluster jewels.

I had pretty rough experience with Slave Driver dying quickly to the beams, which is a problem since we can't resummon them in the arena. Redemption sentries has higher HP but not sure how much it translate to survivability without renewal CJ.

While holding it you now create Profane Ground instead of Consecrated Ground. This new ground effect reduces all enemy resistances as well as making them more likely to be critically hit, but does not provide the life regeneration that Consecrated Ground does.

Maybe combine with Singularity for aoe Hinder?


Kingmaker's fortify doesn't help your necro much because the AG is usually attacking bosses. 50% crit multi is good, but not a big damage boost because crit chance is not high against bosses. The culling strike is useful for endgame bosses though.
