Hi!

First off, thanks for the build & guide, it's great.

I'm using Pure Spectres however I don't use AG because I don't really like it. I've been using Stone Golem - Feeding Frenzy - Elemental Army - Vaal Summon Skeletons.

I'd like to transition from this into something more defensive, preferably CWDT or something similar.

Does anyone have any suggestions please?

Edit:
Follow up question: any suggestions on gloves/helm/boots enchants?

I`m using a Defensive build here, it`s work very well, check my Profile.

I have no issues with any boss, any Tier, rarely I die.

This SHield is helping a alot.

I thought you can only apply 1 curse or does skitterbot and personal curse stack?

From passives got +1 (I`m playing two curses for testing) Whisper of Doom

Hey guys I have two questions!

1. Would anyone kindly explain the change from using Pierce Support for RS to using Vicious Projectiles for mapping? Do we not need the pierce ability anymore?

2. I know we can't do elemental reflect but are we supposed to be having a hard time doing physical reflect maps with RS too?

1. Project weakness curse got pierce coverd
2. no, only elemental ref have issue

so instead of getting renewl+ random suffixs/raze pillage I got this from alt+regal. I really don't wanna mess it up, whats the best way to get renewal? add life then remove and add life harvest craft?

edit: just checked on poedb, it's 1 of 3 chances getting prefix life (renewal) unless large clusters can have 3 suffix and 3 prefix?

Heya, newb question here, what is the point of using animate guardian? What about golem instead?

1. The build is using Skitterbots with Profane Proxy ring socketed with Projectile Weakness for pierce.

2. They still do about 6% Physical damage so if their damage is high enough and leech/regen low enough it can be an issue. I know last league with my souped up sentries I couldn't do Physical Reflect, they just hit too damn hard.

If you have room you can always use the 80% reduced reflect unique ring or just wait for a sextant like I do.

Oh derp I'm so dumb. I read that part about our Skitterbots and I absolutely forgot they added the pierce debuff to enemies. Oof. And yeah my RS's are actually killing themselves in physical reflect maps and I wasn't sure if that was a mod we were supposed to look out for. I haven't had to all league so far but I think with the upgrades that's probably the issue. I appreciate the reply so much!

Hi everyone,

I know my gear is fairly poor, and that my gems are mostly 19 with no quality, but I still can;t help but feel a little underwhelmed by the build.

My freezing pulse totem build was demolishing content, that my RS summoner is struggling with.

Is it just a case of needing 20/20 gems (obv 21/20 spectre) and generally better gear, or am I missing something major?

If you could check my profile and help it would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks,

I've imported your build, is it correct that you only have 3 spectres? You'll still get another 2, one from lvl 25 raise spectre and the other from the body armor. If no other numbers changed you'd get 66% more average dps from that alone, which is also not the case, since by the time you get those two spectres you'll also have the damage of 3 extra levels on raised spectre.

Please read carefully again whole guide page 1.

You can see further in the gear notes for Animate Guardian, especially the benefit of Kingmaker.

In my opinion, it depends on your situation, there is no limit to use both of them. I have AG and stone golem at the beginning( for Life regent) then switch to AG and carion golem for dps boosting.

If you are still confused to choose, I would prefer you go with golem with straight forward benefit from them.

Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback, I assumed it was gear related. I am having a hard time pulling together currency this league, the Exalt drops are none-existent, and I've yet to find anything else of real value.

Will keep farming away though!

I am so busy with other stuff and I don't play much this league, so I am also really poor this league! I'm still using 3 spectres and level 19/0 gems :P

If you are just farming maps, you can try S&S with 3 RS. Even no awakened gems mapping will be easy. I can do T16 corrupted maps.

Endgame level bosses might be difficult. I had a lot of trouble with T16 Eradicator! 3x RS and low DPS is not good (also slow attack speed and spiders despawned in 2nd phase). But I swapped to RK and it was easy.

Kay,
Have you tried two clusters this league? I was able to do one but losing points for the second one dropped my life by 1k on top of the block and it was too much impact. Thoughts?

Haven't tried in league yet because I don't have currency. But it's the same as 3.10. No cluster build has more defense, double cluster has more DPS. Single cluster in the middle. You can do interesting thing with cluster though, like using enduring composure for end charges and surging vitality for regen.

I used double cluster in 3.10 pure spectres build for deli content and it was fine. Much rippier than 3.11 league
