" It's my understanding that minions don't effect elemental equilibrium. So if your asking if the elemental minion damage is going to mess up your EE, the answer is no. It's fine for your jewel to have those mods. I am newer player so take this answer with a grain of salt. |

Any guidance of cluster jewels for the Frost Auto Scout?
The guide suggests cold blooded killer and vengeful commander. I'm not sure that that makes sense. I don't think that the spectre delivers a cold DOT.. so why cold blooded killer? thanks for any help! |

Yep... Its just raining EX this league... Not to mention nec gear prices.
You know how arrogant it is to post that level of gear and then offer advise to folks who are doing the same content with mostly garbage gear? Does the gear give you some kind of special ability to give advise? Really? And the BS excuses for it are lame too... Quite obvious how your playing. Its RNG right? lol... My ass... Lame and arrogant... NS " |

Hello Kay, regarding the Triad Grip do the Slots need to be filled for the full Conversion or do the Sockets just need the desired Colour ?

Soooo, is the pure spectre Summoner the recommended choice for this league?

Hello everyone!
First of all I would like to thank Kay for the awesome job writing and updating this guide and to every single person here offering advice and helping others. As a second character this league i started and invested about 40/50 Exa in a Skeleton Mages Necromancer. I wanted to build an endgame char with strong defences because I not a mechanical adept player. And I wanted especially a good SIMULACRUM farmer. This is my current PoB - https://pastebin.com/vMgVtwjW This is my PoE profile page - https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Highst/characters This is my gear:
Spoiler
This is Kay's skeleton mages PoB that was my benchmark - https://pastebin.com/btZq2Hdv And here comes my problems - ------Defences------ Issues - I get stunned, I get shocked and just die in a one-shot. Shaper beams kill me almost without reaction time. Maven/Shaper puddles leave me a bit of reaction time, but not enough for my old gamer hands. Kosis one-shots me in wave 15+. 1. Life Pool. Currently at 4500 HP and that might be a bit low considering I am using Diadem. I could use a Thread of Hope in the north of the tree and reach Ravenous Horde so i can anoint "Hearth Of the Warrior". I could invest more and get Vermilion rings with chaos resist but i am straight out of currency at the moment. Should i be actively aiming for a higher life pool in the ranges of 6000-7000 to avoid one shots? 2. Defensive Layers. I do not have stun immunity. I get stunned or shocked and just die. I do not have ailment immunity. I have no idea how to get them. Pantheon Switch maybe? I have 31% Change to block attacks and 16% chance to block spells with Glancing Blow. With Bone offering and Tempest Shield in the trigger wand i get block capped for both spells and attacks. I have 3 permanent endurance charges crafted on rings and amulets. I have a Glorious Vanity and 84% Chaos resistance. I have a Kingmaker Animate Guardian to grant me permanent Fortify .I have close to 2000 armour. I have a They Of Thull and a proximity shield Spectre always with me and STILL GET ONE SHOTTED. -- How the hell should i get stun immunity or ailment immunity besides flasks? Should i switch Pantheon from Lunaris to Soul of the Brine King? And what minion pantheon should i use? -- Should i aim for a defensive aura instead of Zealotry in the Diadem? -- Is Glancing Blows that good or not, i fail to understand it properly - Sometimes it seems super gooa dn sometimes it seems like a hinderance. -- Can i add more defensive layers that i am missing or do not have the necessary game knowledge? -- If i fit in a Cast on Damage taken setup, will that help? And what would be the choice: Immortal Call? Enduring Cry? Stellskin? -- Should i use 2 small clusters with life on them? -- Am i missing important aspects as a new minions player? -- Is a PURE SPECTRE build tankier then this "niche" skeleton build? 3.Offensive layers. I am generally happy with my current DPS. I use a general approach with Divergent Pierce and Lesser Multiple Projectiles for Mapping. I use a Arcanist Brand with Hydrosphere for mapping. I use Predator and Slower projectile support for bossing and switch the Hydrosphere with Sniper's Mark. I use Breath Stealer Gloves for Simulacrum and mapping and i should use different gloves for bossing but sadly i do not have any at the moment. I have 2 cluster setups one with 2 Minion Mediums and 2 Aura mediums. Even with that my cold projectile Skeletons do only 600.000 dps compared with Kay's 1.400.000 dps. But She uses 2 wands and one is overpowered. And she has max level gems. My tree and jewels are generally improving on her DPS. I have fortress Covenant and Quick Covenant. I have good Abyss Jewels. -- I must be absolutely missing some crucial and easy DPS upgrades that i overlook because of my lack of experience playing the build. Please give me a hand because here I fail to even identify the problem. 4.Flask. Have Bleed immunity and Curse immunity. I will drop the Rumi for a Quciksilver. But not sure what can i replace it with for bossing. Any New flasks i can add or switch? Thank you so much for reading my wall of text and thank you so much for any imput and help you guys might have. Keep healthy and keep safe everytone! |

Anyone built a successful HoP build? I'm trying to make it work but it seems to be falling off no matter how much I invest in it. While the clear is decent, survivability and single target damage seem sub-par. Anyone care to share their success story? :)

I feel like I wasted a ton of time with this build. The damage is mediocre at best and the survivability is a joke. Maybe I am doing something wrong (like not being rich) but its so slow. And slow is fine, I actually like slow and steady. However, I dislike being sneezed at and watching my XP evaporate over and over again. Trying to push into a corridor or a room is a death trap.
Can't clear Alva Temples in time, Research Jun is always a close call, Legions lol. And delirium mirrors are a huge joke. I guess I am asking for help ,if I am missing something super obvious please let me know. I would prefer not to sell everything and reroll if possible. I loved the glory days of TV spectres. https://pastebin.com/s1zGaj8G Thank you |
