[3.11]QUEEN OF NECROMANCY - STRONGEST ZOMBIES EVER? 55M+ DPS 7K+ LIFE MAX BLOCK 90% CHAOS RES

Well, waiting paid off. I still had to drop 12 ex on it, but this one already had 18% and didn't require any divine. I was right, it gives me 1531 ES and Intimidate with Pride. Now to play with my tree to see if I should focus on a bit more mana or ES. With SO up I have 7313 life, 6851 ES

For leveling, the guide mentions using a 5L skeletons in the chest. What should I link with skeletons at that point?

That's over 14k EHP, pretty impressive. How much STR do you have? Just wondering :)

Nice jewel! Worth more than 12ex I am sure.
I would have some ES roll on rings and rare jewel if possible, shapers touch scales ES crazy.
ES and mana on tree are weak imo, we have already like 500% increased ES.
We need flat ES.
I dont know what do you prefer but geofri has crazy flat ES as well. Personally I have 8k life and 14k ES with offering up...

Got a Jorgin level 3 saved up...is this good enough to put in for the possible % attr roll?

Also are people chaos spamming or alt/regal?

That looks pretty good if you craft life and anoint it. Though I've been told you can't convert Shaper/Elder amulets, and I don't know if you can convert amulets with a bench craft.

Indeed, you can't convert elder/shaped amu into talisman from the syndacate bench.

Summon skeletons - minion damage - feeding frenzy - multistrike - melee physical damage. Swap melee physical damage for melee splash on clearing c:

Oof, nice pickup :D

Btw. what would you say if i said that phys is indeed more damage than chaos, even with full wither stacks? Also i've been wanting to try out impale. The league seems pretty dead, so i might just start trying out random things for 3.9 ^^

Using Saqawal’s. Geofri’s would over 3k ES if I’m not mistaken, but not worth it in my opinion. I already had no trouble not dying unless I was stupid or lag on Uber Elder. Plus, with 1 L5 Enlighten and 10% on my Saqawal’s, I’m able to run Pride, Discipline, War Banner, Aspect, and Clarity without additional investment into reduced mana res on the tree.

The mana as ES goes for 8-9 ex and adding Intimidate 12-15. When I got mine there were 2 at 12, both listed for 1 week. The biggest difference being not having to divine made it very nice. I think next league it will be cheaper but not by much. It’s always been an expensive mod.

Really? I never was able to make Impale pan out, though there have been many changes since I looked into it. Impale in general would function like Wither stacks: not very effective from 1 Zombie but basically instant reward from all on a single target. It does scale nicely with Generosity though...if you can fit it in. With my current setup I don’t think my mana could sustain removing it from Enlighten. If I picked up the 14% on the tree I could add Skitterbots into the mix which would move the banner out, but gem slots are becoming hard to come by, and 4 passives are expensive when I can always simply replace Discipline (20% life = ~700, Discipline = ~1000 ES). I’ll have to look back into impale.

It’s also only worth it in my opinion if you can continue running Spirit Offering and with Shaper’s Touch. Maximizing dps would certainly remove them, but the utility/defense is too potent imo.

@jlh165 I just wondering how much resistance you have.

Cap them with offering?

I'm stuck in the step of what change make to my char without suffering losing resistance. Could u give me some advice please?

Thanks :D

Cold/Lightning are soft capped (76%) but not hard capped (122% for Elemental Weakness and -12 max resistance rolls). Fire is not soft capped (77%) but will be shortly. I lost the jewel with fire resistance on it when switching to Watcher’s Eye and haven’t had time to fix it yet. That is including SO which easily has a 100% uptime and grants me 23% all ele res and 30% from Bone Barrier (note: this is not a guaranteed 100% uptime as minions may run out of range). My chaos res is far in the negative.

I pick up 60% fire, 52% cold and lightning resistances on my tree, not including Bone Barrier
- 2 @ Faith and Steel
- 3 @ Barbarism
- 4 @ Diamond Skin
- 3 @ Soul of Steel
- 1 @ Cruel Preparation

Overall this means the tree, Ascendencies, and SO accumulate 323 of 409 resistance to hit the soft cap of ele res.

Now, looking at you. I cannot see your tree, but I’m guessing I invested much more into resistance than you. Your rings are pretty low on total resistance. For a regular Stygian Vice belt, it is low on resistance. Abyss Jewels can have up to 30% total resistance on them. You can get a bit by maxing the implicit on your Two-Stone Ring. Finally, you could replace Skitterbots with Purity of Elements. It could be a permanent swap or temporary to get resistances squared out.
