Everyone is talking about SO and crabbies and what not, but am I the only one using FAS? I absolutely love them and the clear speed is insanely fast (granted I'm only at T10 maps) but I am having no survivability issues with 7k life and 1k ES. I've never had a minion die on me at this point either.

I think the best is use the spectre you like :)

Sometimes I meet other necros that still use Solar Guards!

I can't decide on which to invest in with regards to the Minion Bomber / Pure Crabbie builds?

The Minion Bomber seems exclusively cheaper than the Pure Spectres because of the number of uniques used, but gathering from the general consensus and videos that both of them can function well at a very high level?

Can't really see the pros and cons of either and dont really have the currency to dump for both ... Would like some general feedback for a returning player with not much to go on?

same boat as u

I think MB is better for Maven endgame because you can just keep running around the circle and cast SRS randomly (they will fly to bosses). It has big burst aoe damage , but there is about 3s delay on cast -> explosion So you need to be careful when mapping with rippy mods (run around packs and be careful). Another downside is necro is much squishier.

PS is tankier build, but you need to direct spectres with Predator so you need to get into cast range (can be dangerous). But you can also play aggressive: run into monsters packs and cast convocation!

I feel like PS is faster for mapping and MB is better for bossing.

Are Redemption Sentries still worth using? I don't see them on the spectre list in the guide anymore.

The damage is much less than 3.11 when they were the best spectre. GGG nerfed them by 30% in 3.12 and now all spectre are 30% nerf again. So RS is basically double nerfed. I don't really recommend them anymore :(

Are you playing trade league?

6L helmet is 5c

Is it possible to get a Devouring Diadem from a Ritual?

I have question about Syndicate Operatives - if I want to start with them because I heard they are kinda good after patch - should I use SSF/Start league system and just change gems from FAS to SO gems from 3.12 youtube guide with changing spell echo and then change to pure spectre version with SO gems too and with same setup?

You have two choice: phys/impale or cold conversion. Conversion is stronger but it needs Triad Grip 4G. 4G is a bit annoying for necro because we don't really need 4 green gems... You need to look at 3.12 Pure Spectres build to see the gems & links.

Cold Conversion Syndicate Operatives Spectre

Phys/impale doesn't need any gear (SSF friendly). but the gems and links are very different.

Pure Physical and Impale Syndicate Operatives

If you just change the gems and use the base build, SO will feel weak because of low base damage.

So, is it possible to start passive skill tree with SSF/League Starter Pastebin with Frost Auto Scouts and then transfer to Pure spectres version in forum guide or into this Cold conversion video with SO? Not sure which one would be better for SO

How is spectre and spiders performing endgame?

I haven't tested it yet, but map clearing will still be good because necro nerf doesn't affect spiders. Bossing will be weaker because of nerf though. Maybe we can go back to EVF?

Forgot to ask Kay... Would pinpoint support still be applicable for TT or should it be GMP for mapping? Thanks!

Yes no problem! I make my builds have similar passive trees so it's not difficult to change build.

Actually League Start used to be called 'Base Build' because it was the basic build and then specialise into Pure Spectre or Spectres & Spiders.
