I think FAS would be the play for this league that thing will survive the end game content

" What is FAS ? |
|
" Frost Auto Scout, from heist tunnels. Desecrate as soon as you enter. To Kay et. al., how does one look for new spectre candidates? I can see a list at https://poedb.tw/us/mon.php but then what? How can you tell which monster attacks are more damaging? Right now there are 956 monsters on that list... |

" There's a couple of things you look for. Damage % (Over 100 is ideal) Life % (Over 100 is ideal) Then look at the attacks. You're looking for attacks that are 1 second or less, and have good raw damage. Then, which ones are spell, or melee based. Finally there are nuances in the AI you want to look at. Do they run around like chickens with their heads cut off, etc. Do the spam abilities instead of attacks. Here is Ghazzy going over some specters, and why they are good or not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W6ieDs3-cQ Last edited by amkronos#5399 on Jan 12, 2021, 10:42:32 PM

Are baranite preachers dead now? Those were what I was hoping to run after seeing the video of them.

" Make sure to click on spectre profile. Many monsters actually have different stats for monsters and spectre. You need to look at % life, % damage, attack time and skills at the bottom. Attack skills have no damage value, but they sometimes have mod like 'deal 200% damage' Spell skills have deal x to y damage. Look at the cast time. *You also need to look at lua for crit chance. All minions have 5% base, but some spells have extra crit. for example baranite preacher ball lightning is 32% crit. In 3.13, we want a spectre with around 300% life or more. Spell spectres are easy to understand. DPS is just damage divided by cast time. Attack spectres are % damage multiple by damage mod divide by attack time. Cast time/attack time is also import because you want to know how soon they cast/attack again. Some monsters have huge damage value, but the attack time is 2.5s. So they only attack every 2.5s (useless). Also look at the skill tags like 'projectile' 'area' 'trigger'. Sometimes they have no tags. You can also check AI script to understand how they use abilities.

" Whats your take on mage skeles? Does they seem like a decent bossing ramp-up? Cause the buff is pretty substantial? Thanks for all you do, Kayella ;) |

Keep up the great work and thanks for most informative guide on the forums |

Question: Will there be a problem because of the lower RS level when its comes to threshold? Because the map monsters are so far above the RS level?

I think now hitting gem level ~lv30ish will be mandatory. According to poedb minion scaling stops at monster lv.84 or something like that. Before the nerf it was easy to reach.
Maybe +2 corrupted chest, +3 elder helm more mandatory in end game now? I posted earlier about taking alternate ascendancy nodes. Drop Mistress of Sacrifice and for life pool ~150%ish spectres like SD, take Bone Barrier. For ~300%ish spectres (like FAS which I am about to play), take Plague Bringer for damage. I really want to know what you think on this. Even if it's me lacking some understanding of the ascendancy, please correct me. Plus it's not your post's problem, this game has too many necro haters. I watche the post grew from 800 likes, I say it got more dislikes than you think. Most people saw the world spectre and click thumbs down without even thinking. |
