Kay's Summoner Memorial Page | New Guide is linked inside!

Couple of random questions:

1) In POB, to get total build DPS, you have to manually add each of the minion damages? I know that it is trivial for the final build, but I am currently running "beefy" Zombs and Skeletons, which add up to about 140K DPS. Since my 4 Spectre Total DPS is only 515K that additional 140K is significant.

2) When you pop Vaal Skeleton, it creates several different types of Skellies one of which is a caster. How do I know that the caster isn't casting Lightning damage since I believe they can cast all three elements? Curious because wouldn't that then screw with EE? (I think I answered this for myself? Minions can't affect EE?)

3) Feeding Frenzy or Deathmark in the Spectre skills (I have seen people using both)? As a side note, I am running FF in my Zomb skill links, so don't know if having two FFs is worthwhile

TIA

1) Yes, have to manually add
2) Minions dont apply EE
3) If you use feeding frenzy somewhere else on your gear, use deathmark. If you are NOT using FF anywhere else, use FF on specters and swap to deathmark for bosses.

Having two FF is useless. The main bonus is from the buff itself, which applies to all minions. Having double FF only gives your specters +24% more dmg, whereas deathmark is +25% more + 10% increased + another 24% more if you mark a mob.

im really looking forward to the additional spectres but as for the ones you already upadated - some of them has zealtory and the PoH v2 already has it as an aura, what are we supposed to use instead of driver's wrath in these cases?

Their element's equivalent (Anger for fire, Hatred for cold)

Is this armor worth investing into 6 link? Im using a tabula right now.
Edit: I’ll add a note saying this is on PS4 where anything with 6 links sells for 2-3 exalts so buying a decent 6 link is pretty challenging. If that makes a difference in the decision.

Personally I wouldnt recommend wasting currency on 6linking a non-specter chest, unless you're not planning to use one.

I would keep that armor as 5link until you can afford a specter chest, since you might end up spending as much currency on 6linking it than a specter chest would cost you, unless you get very lucky.

The problem is that I’m on PS4 and the number of Spectre chests is very very low. In fact I haven’t been able to find one for sale. Which means I would have to delve and find one... which I have no idea my odds on that.

Ahhh... in that case.... maybe it would be worth it. Has decent HP and okay resist, although I'd probably try to get one with higher resist and/or a free prefix to craft %life/mana (or %life as es if PoH)
"content uber atziri*"

1. Why did you use asterisk? I cannot find any explanation.

2. Does PoH variant work fine without Aul's Uprising and Watcher's Eye? Does it have more dps than W&S variant and good survivability? I don't have currency to just change and see for yourself.
