I was wondering once you have the base build geared out, how "automatic" is the build? What I mean is, I am not sure how much casting you usually need to do yourself once you have things like the trigger wand crafted and your minions mostly stay alive?

Hi there,

Thanks for the great guide, I will probably play Spectres for the first time next league.
Any thoughts on the Scinteel Synthite monster ? It's very hard to get but looks pretty strong.

I alredy tested some synthesis spectres
Flaric Synthete
Frosal Synthete
Scinteel Synthete

This all three have the same cast speed with auto attacks 150% dmg 500% life and my conclusion is they are slow compared with SG/SD, they have some fun skills the problem with that is not the cd, is the cast speed

I read Lyends spectre build, and so I tried out the Scinteel Synthites today. I really went all out with everything I could to boost their DPS, using 20/20 gems like Wrath + Zealotry, etc. I even put on Awakened gems where possible. But my conclusion is that they are terrible. I really don't know why he thinks they are good. They have super poor map clear speed, and their single target DPS is even worse.

I tried a bunch of different support gem combinations, and I think that the problem is that it's very difficult to boost ALL of it's attacks. In otherwords, it has some spells, so that spell echo is good, but it also seems to have 2 attacks where spell echo has no effect. Same thing with any of the projectile supports (LMP, slower projectiles, pierce etc) - they work on his main attack, but not on the other 2 attacks. It did help a lot to use Damage on Full Life, that seems to work for all of it's attacks. But otherwise, 2/3rds of his attacks don't seem to benefit from spell echo or projectile supports. Or maybe I'm missing something? But even in Lyends videos they look bad, so idk why he likes them.

There is a 'easy mapping' mode. You can play it with just 3 mouse buttons or keep a hand near your flask keys too.

I demonstrate it here: https://youtu.be/qKFX0Dpt0oE?t=60

Set up is here: https://youtu.be/qKFX0Dpt0oE?t=1184


If you look a little futher in the video, you can see the typical set up. Mostly you will cast convocation to move spectres and flame dash to get out of trouble or jump terrain. Deathmark is to focus spectres on a single target like boss or big rare. Storm brand for EE/curse just use for bosses.


It depends on spectres, most spectres from Acts have low life (100-150% modifier). They have good DPS though. Maps from mapping like Redemption Sentry have 400-500% life mod. So they don't usually die.
