Made this helmet, there for i will now go level summoner and play 6 link slave drivers in helmet!
Nice!

Grats. Awesome helmet for SD/SG/FS/GFR!

Definitely move the spectres to your helmet and now you can use the chest for support minions.

Yeh thinking of getting 6link zombies in chest. Or 5link zombie and 6th link animate guardian? This way animate also gets all the defensive gems..

I'd go with the AG because you can equip it with buff-giving gear.

BTW, you can actually even use your helmet with EVF!

Hi.

Is it worth fitting in a inspired learning somewhere. Or is that waste of points?

Great guide, thank you <3

Decided to try this for my first SSF char.
And the levelling process was HELL!!! Got to act 6 and im done.
First time ive ever had to start over with a new char during the levelling process.
WASNT EVEN CLOSE to geting all the links and currency needed to switch over.
How am i suppose to have Victario's at level 50??
Levelling sections seriously need an overhaul.
Specially when the title says League starter SSF.. !!!!
Deleting char and finding a better build that actually are SSF and league starter.

Whats the point of 2 raise spectre gems? You cant raise the chieftan on the same gem as sd?

Can I switch to version 2 without chaning equipment from v1? Just for life purposes or will I get some problems?

BM should be linked into the support group, unless I made a mistake.

Could probably move PR into the gloves anyway - I realised I put a Blind support into a blind crafted gloves. Could rethink the Curse cluster completely. It does have reduced effectiveness, but it's still 10-13% more damage.

I don't see any BM linked anywhere. Checked both the gear in the post and the PoB.

And yeah, I assumed you put the Blind gem in there to increase the chances of Blinding or something. But I honestly wouldn't even use the gloves. Imho, no trigger type / on-hit of application is going to work well in clear just due to how fast things die - your biggest threat at these clear speeds are projectiles or spells that are sent out by already dead monsters. And against single targets, even a single abyss jewel with minion blind chance is probably going to keep it up with near 100% uptime just due to how many things are hitting one target.

If you really want Blind (that's effective whilst clearing), I'd say Flesh and Stone in Sand Stance is a good general recommendation instead of Skitterbots. Might even be able to fit both with enough reserve reductions and/or a reserve reduction helm enchant. Since we're crafting our helm from a rare with a very popular base atm, I'd imagine getting the enchant is very possible in trade league, but I didn't check the prices. Edit: I checked in PoB now and it's easily possible to fit in both by picking up the Sovereignty nodes and a mana reserve reduction for either Wrath, Skitterbots, or Flesh and Stone.

There isn’t much of a gear change save for a beefy shield and two Unset rings.

@kayella
Early feedback on wand and shield v2 — considerably tankier than v1 for certain, one shots are now two or three shots, ripping thru T15 maps with ease even with nutty modifiers. Had a single death on an especially nutty T15 (conductivity/elemental weakness IIRC) while facetanking, and even then it was a two shot.

Uncertain about Blind support too, will do some A/B testing and see how it goes. Figuring out a way to fit in Temporal Chains + Solstice Vigil too.

How come we're not using Feeding Frenzy for slave drivers anymore? I thought it synergized well with them?

Ty for that Kayella. I'll give that a go + switch to new tree ;) Worth testing considering how much I die atm, nothing to loose, everthing to gain :D On a side note, am minions apart from skellies, never die, so that's ACE! I think my AG has a lot to do with it, so will likely keep that part the way it is now (minions have 34k+ life, can't complain.

See how you go with it. I tested 21/20 PM + Enh4 for a few weeks and went back to Temp Chains for the defenses, anyway. You might like it though.

I meant using both of them.
I threw together some gear and started the transition, im at 8k hp and 1k+ es and havent multimodded my ring yet. Using a Lioneyes shield as a budget item, trying to craft a shaper shield with 15% reduced mana mana reservation and spell dodge so i can fit in spider aspect.
If i get it i would be running tc, pm, wrath, skitterbots and spider aspect (with bonus fortify from my AG).
