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

Maybe the guide could have a Sirus section...or maybe I am the only one who struggled for a while :)

I was trying various skellie-shenanigans for way too long. In the end a slightly modified zombie setup did the job fast and easy.
Here are the changes I made and a few items to consider:

Jewel with "Corrupted Blood cannot be inflicted on you". When learning the fight you can get tunnel-vision. Not having to worry about timing Bone Armour or Staunching flask is very nice.

Switched Animate Guardian (since I didn't want to risk it) for Meat Shield, making Spectres beefier and less likely to sudoku in puddles of doom.

Switched to The Jinxed Juju amulet with Grave Intentions anoint. Lost 1 zombie, but gained 10% damage reduction and 30% Chaos Res.

Watcher's Eye with Chaos Res while affected by Purity of Elements. Already mentioned in the guide. The mod is probably at an all time high cost this league, but worth it for Sirus and mapping in general.

Hello, i love this build so far, but i need some advices!

I have 45ex~ budget right now and i want to know where to spend it at best.

I'd say:
For damage: Empower 4, Awak. Melee Phys.
For survivability: Watcher's Eye with Chaos Res while affected by Purity of Elements - possibly a good secondary mod (x% phys. taken as element). Might require change of your aura setup and/or a good Unset Ring.

Thanks :), i think i will upgrade empower and the awaken skill.

I also wonder if a amulet with zombie + 1 and 130 strength would be a massive bonus or not? its 5-10ex and i dont know if its worth

Wow divining Lethal Pride isn't easy... spent an ex on 11 divines.

Managed to get the following bonuses on the 10th divine:
+5% increased STR (Jackpot! just barely hit the zombie#14 with 1203 total STR)
-10% reduced crit dmg taken (this seems excellent, hopefully will help prevent 1-shots)
Regen 1% life/s (meh, but not completely useless)
+20% increased armour (this seems pretty close to useless)

I think I'll settle with this Lethal Pride for now, didn't have to rearrange my skill tree and all nodes have some sort of benefit.

Thats not too bad for 11 divines. i've seen far worse achived. Atleast all the mods are useful :P

Is this possible to kill Syrius without Fortify? Minion wouldn't die?

Its doable without for sure, however the fortify is just a big bag of quality of life ^^

Doesn't seem like something i'd invest in persoanlly.

so i see some annointing death attunement on amulet and then pathing to both ravenous and grave is their any benefit to this?

and what implicit would be ideal on gloves when corrupting? i am assuming one of the curses or increased life

Its kind of what you prefer, i go for death attunement with points cause i pick up fearsome force aswell ^^

You could go for +1 to socketed gems and get a pair of hunter boots. i think you'd gain the most from that.

Crafted this nifty thing. 136 STR. Maybe worth switching from Astramentis

I think i'd just go with astramentis. have you thought of adding the warlord influence on it for % strength?

I'd personally try to craft one yourself. A warlord/elder amber amulet would grant you % strength aswell as +1 zombie on alteration spams. Then you could always go for a regal third mod.
