Also is this build (Pure spectres) good vs blighted maps?

Because we have nothing to reduce the dmg taken, if you are not 100 yet I am suggest you back to zombie build and rush the lvl, we are really need those passive point. If you throw alot ex into apectre build and too lazy to switch well you can find a rota a grind lvl thats it. I am myself give up alot of dps to have 75/75 cap block can check my profile, remember if you want to follow me then take mistress instead of plaguebringer, mine is a misstake I will change tomorrow. I swap steelskin for immortal because we have endurance charge from small cluster jew, I dont like totem so I use ball lightnong to generate charge for spectre, this is personally choice. I dont say you wont get oneshot anymore, but everything will be smoother.

You can use harvest craft to remove bad and low tier mods. But some mods can't remove. So check carefully before buying:

Then you can craft it and make it really nice!

See? That's what happens whan I ask for help to smart people!

I am, like others in this thread, using a few tweaks on the Pure Spectres build to make it quite a bit more tanky. Kay also lists some suggestions on the first page, but I'll reiterate since there's a lot of info to go through:
1- Mistress of Sacrifice instead of Plaguebringer
2- find 2 points to go up to Glancing Blows
3- I use a regular life on block/spell block shield for mapping and regular bosses, and then swap in Vic's Charity when there's a big boss to kill.
4- I use Bone Offering for the same situations as #3, and switch to Flesh Offering only for big bosses. This gives me max block for attacks and spells, even without Rumi's.
5- I say forget Unending Hunger, and use a jewel that gives life/minion damage etc... I tried it for a long time, and I didn't see hardly any difference in clear speed. But that might just be my personal preference.

Edit: One more thing I forgot. In my mapping shield, I use Enduring Cry instead of Holy Flame Totem. It's very very good.

I also have 7200 life with 2 cluster setup, but that's largely due to stacking it on all my gear & %life on belt, which can be a bit expensive. Note- there are a couple people more rich than I am who have gone CI, but that's a whole big swap you have to commit to. See my gear for the life version, which has done quite well for me.

Suggestions of what I can create on the harvest? making the version of pure spectro.

Time to get those awakened gems.
And this is my very first time!

What's the correct way to proceed? Should I buy them off the market, at level 1? Is there anything I should keep an eye on?

Never had awakened gems in my life. :-P

Thanks again guys.

Now that I have 5 spectres, I'll try to push forward!

HI,

I crafted this armor so far was was wondering if I can harvest Augument Attack or Cast to get attack or Spell crit and then remove defence and benchcraft life.

For redemption sentires should I Harvest Aug Attack crit or Spell Crit? and also would that help the spectres much or shud I simply Aug Chaos res?

I dont think either crit benefits your minions only you.

I been running the spider build for awhile now. I lose the spiders often enough it gets me killed. I looked around my tree and equipment and can't figure out why they periodically die off.

Leveling section says to level up Bone Offering, but we are not using it at any point?

I have been running the Spiders version so far and I only occasionally run into the problem. I think your problem is you are not casting desecrate often enough.

Also the build is not meant to be used without a writhing jar if you dont know what you are doing or running maps with bosses in a separate room/phased bosses/No minion bosses.

This is strictly meant for maps like City Square, Promenade types where you just rush the boss as if they are just another rare pack.

Also if you are not using animate guardian, you may also want to consider specking out of plaguebringer and opt for mistress of sacrifice. You will lose a bit of damage (10% less) but you will have 30% increased minion duration and skill duration and you can then use bone offering to compensate for loss of DR from plague bringer. Use desecrate + spell cascade and Bone offering in-lieu of Animate guardian.

I have made a few changes myself to the S&S build as per my taste.

Not using AG or Cinderswallow, so instead using a Writhing jar all the time and linked Divine Ire + CwC + Frostbite. This way Divine ire does dual purpose as worm killer as well as cast Frost bite on Bosses when I channel it.

I have 6K life and 500ES so only die to one shots. A couple of gear pieces still need further crafting/replacement. SO far its working absolutely fine. The first 2 jewels go into darkness enthroned to give almost 70% increased minion damage and approx 47 to 53 minion physical damage which is pretty good and some additional resistance.
