Would love to see how it performs with high defense layers. :)

GGG is being sneaky here and stealth nerfed minions (as well as pretty much everyone else). Minimal stuff in patch notes but I had a quick peek at the new skill tree and most of our notables have some minior nerfs to either damage, accuracy rating or attack speed.


I changed my POB to 3.11 tree and there's a few small things here and there. It's not super bad, though! I think only 5% or less.

I don't think GGG will do any stealth nerf. Usually they say something about obvious nerf. 3.10 they said some monstres are too powerful as spectres and we got them already nerfed. 3.7 was the last major nerf because CFE was added to Act 1 (used to be Merciless difficulty only) and they rebalanced the skills.

So, we good for 3.11 right? :)
@kayella: I already started with this build in metamorph league, I used slave drivers, I sticked with the life version build. That absolutely dominated the content. I have to say a big THANKS for one of the best and deepest guide out there!!!
I will try this again with redemption sentries as a league start. I really appreciate the work you put in there!

I made the new Base Build for league start and SSF a balance of DPS and tank. So at level 90 has:
+ 230% life from tree
+ 50% evade with jade
+ 20% phys damage reduciton with basalt
+ 60/30 block with flask and bone offering
+ 10/10 attack/spell dodge with quartz

I just used my self-crafted equipment for the build.

It can be tankier but DPS becomes low...


I'm working on build and will release tomorrow!

@Kayella....amazing, tyvm for your work. :)

I have a question, maybe u can help me here as experianced summoner.

I see you run "Mistress of Sacrifice" but saw in other builds that people run "Bone Barrier" or "Plaguebringer" instead.

Whats the advantage/disadvantage between those 3 nodes?

I have tested the levling a bit and im realy strugling with act bosses? Do you have any tips for them. Mervile and Dominus especially. I can pop in a Animate Weapon for mervile but dom just kills of al my minions? how do any of you speed runners deal with em?


My plan is to make a video about early levelling tips! I hope I have time to make it. (・・;)

For merveil, use two sapphire rings is really important. To fight her I put HFT near her and then cast some SRS and then move, cast SRS and move. But I'm thinking of switching build to skeleton because people are having trouble with SRS.

Dominus is similar. The most dangerous part is the adds before him actually. If zombies die then you can just ignore or find a safe place to desecrate and raise again...

Also remember to make Flask of Animation!

What's your opinion on spectre to use until Redeemer? I can't decide between Frost Sentinels, Solar Guards, or Slave Drivers. I haven't done enough test runs to have true times to compare between them.


For new Base Build, change between spectres is only a few gem swaps. So if you don't like one spectre, just easy change.

I think I will use Solar Guard. Don't need high power to kill white tier map bosses, so better clear speed is more important.

Frost Sentinel ability makes map hard to see. I don't like it.

Simply buy Vaal Skeleton Gem asap (Should be 1 Alch - 1 Chaos at league start).....Destroys Bosses.

I'm also planing to take spell damage passive first (respecc later) and simply cast Orb of Storm here and there to gain a lil bit XP while moving....no idea if those 5 spell dmaage nodes make SRS better, will try it out too. :)

Still fine. VB stacking is horrible value if you want to go the Megalomaniac route.

Precise Commander is slightly weaker but way easier/cheaper to stack.
My CI crit Spectre Build has 3x VB and 6x PC.

Thats 108% Critmulti lost. My build dropped from 13m down to 9.8m per Spectre with all the changes. Still overkill. My first showcase video had a spectre dps of ~5m and was one-shotting Guardians and could do 100% Delirious T19 maps.


Yeah I think GGG changed all crit multi builds, so super high end builds lost the most DPS. It's OK I guess. Just takes 5s to kill boss instead of 1s ^^

High end clusters will be expensive too. I think GGG will nerf mod weighting really bad for crit stuff.
