My damage is there kinda ish lol im level 80. followed the tree but i die sooooo much get one shot i dunno what to do i can only do up to t10s damage wise but i die so much what should i do to improve my damage/ survivability i have 75 lightning red like 50 fire cold - 10 chaos. 6L staff 6L saqas i cant get a good roll on my hubris so i used the other jewell idk wat to do lol i keep dying and cant do past t10 maps at level 80

Doing t10s at level 80 seems a bit meh. I'm honestly only doing t4s and I'm level 83 and the Exp is fine. Of course, I'm on HC, so i haven't died any and I am using a belly of the beast. Maybe you just need some more skillpoints.

Ok i finally got it doing decent im doing T16's now but i die alot. i was Wondering so i used to use the Femeuors of the Saints 6L staff. now i switched to a different one im Wondering is this new staff better?? because when i switched my in game zombie damage went from 403% to only 320% here's my new staff im wondering is this for sure way better then a 6L femours of the saints? https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/4pointt0/characters Acc name is Big_Pwn_noob




Also my Carrion golem Always dies like every 45 secs or so anyone know why?



I keep dying like one shot in delve 180 the guide says its fine till 1k+?

Hey all. Second league with zombies and so far im finding it a lot tougher than last league to get damage for my zombies and survivability for myself. Not sure what my next move should be. Struggling with way 19-20 of simulacrum. My build is a bit of a mix between this and Ethans. Was wondering if adding a fortify weapon would be a big dps increase compared to mine ? Also played around with impale in my weapon vs feeding frenzy. Even though the numbers via POB suggest the imapale is adding a ton of damage I find with the feeding frenzy that it almost feels better than impale and gives me a bit of protection because the zombies are running out ahead of me faster than with just impale. Would adding more rotten claws jewels help me out with my impale chance? Just not sure what direction to go in at this point. Still waiting for a nice element to phys watchers eye to come up at a decent price but its been a long wait.

Small update.
This build is close to be in final form. It's cost me around 30ex. I made SIM 20/20 and Sirius deathless.
It's my https://pastebin.com/53rSwr7j .
7,4k eHP,11 zombies with 450k.
Need some lvl to finish tree and more Ex to change gems but with these build im able to do probably every content in game so if someone need advice you can use is as template :) I will gladly accept any advice for it ;)

Its Big_Pwn_noob. i feel like the damage just isnt there and i get one shot a ton. also do i need a better timless jewel ??

- Your resistances are very low, so cap them, otherwise you'll melt down against any elemental damage (especially on ele weakness, and monster deal #% extra elemental damage maps)

In PoB im getting ~448k damage per zombie, which is not bad, but

- Your gems needs more level, they're low (lvl 8-10) that's a big damage loss
- Make sure you're are using 3-4 spectres (at least 2 Carnage Chieftain, 1 Host Chieftain and a 4th one such as Arena Master, Ruin Helion, etc.)
- Do you 4th lab FAST to get Bone Barrier (That's a big defensive thing)
- Get Vaal Molten Shell
- Get a +1/+2 gems corruption on gloves for auras OR Curse with Vulnerability lvl 10-12 corruption on gloves
- Get a helm enchant that do something for the build, such as : Dread Banner has increased effect, Zombies have more attack speed, zombies deal increased damage, etc.
- You can get the Aligned Spirit nodes for a bit more damage
- Drop Lethal Pride Jewel and get a Elegant Hubris Jewel with 240%+ minion damage and maybe some usefull mods such as Minion Life, Chaos Resistance, Elemental Resistances, Life, etc.
- If your AG is naked, get him some juicy damage buff such as a Kingmaker weapon, etc.
- Invest into juicy minion damage cluster jewels
- You have 6.1K HP, that should be enough to survive most Delirium things, so that's fine. (I've 5K and I'm pretty much walking safe in every content)

The Fortify weapon is better, and it actually should give you more damage and more tankiness to your zombies, BUT you have to use a Empower to benefit the +2 support gem, otherwise it will be similar to Femur w/o the Fortify buff.

Carrion: Get him more levels, get some minion life nodes on the tree or just re-cast it when it dies. Otherwise you can use Holy Relic, it won't die, but it's not really aggressive, so Feeding Frenzy buff might drop sometime.

Delve: Well, without spirit offering, delve is harder (1K+ yes, with Spirit Offering. W/o, I seriously don't know. I guess it's possible, but with min/maxed gear). But, your resistances aren't capped (actually very low), so that might explain some of difficulties in delve.

The Foritfy give a little bit (little) more damage, then a flat Minion Damage one, but it's mostly the Fortify buff (which is a defensive buff) that is very helpfull to keep minions alive (if no AG with Kingmaker).

FF vs Impale : Well yes FF feels smoother, you can run FF in maps and swap to Impale against big bosses for a damage boost. Stacking rotten claws is VERY nice in fact if using impale, damage-wise.

Thank you all so much helped aton! also what do i replace with spirit offering ?




Also would it be better if i got a staff that has level 20 aspect of the avian and 100%+ increased minion damage? or should i stick with fortify but i already get fortify from my guardian so do you think its worth it to get a different weapon ? i have like 10 ex to spend

Depend,
You can still run Spirit Offering for Extra chaos damage (if not using Brutality Support) and getting 30% chaos resistance (if using Mistress of Sacrifice ascendancy) (mix of offense and defense)
OR use Flesh Offering for minion attack speed and juicy Impale stacking (pure offense)
OR use Bone Offering for minions defense (kinda low) and maybe your own defense if using Mistress of Sacrifice ascendancy (pure defense)

Short answer, no it's not. You need a 128% Minions Damage to match the damage of Fortify AND with only Minion Damage you DONT have the Fortify buff that is SUPER usefull to keep your minions alive (especially in Delirium ^^)
But, if you have Kingmaker on AG, that is granting Fortify already, you can try a Minion Damage + Chance Double Damage staff (btw it's kinda expensive, I think it start around 30ex), but it's still less damage then the Fortify one overall.
But, getting a new Fortify weapon with Avian, will give an open suffix on rings to get some juicy mods such as : Strength, Chaos Resistance, Elemental Resistance, Minion Movement Speed, etc. So you can maybe sell you non-Avian weapon then use the currency you got to buy an Avian one (or one with an open suffix, then craft Avian for 10-20c), with maybe a 1-2ex investment

Something better you could do with those 10ex, is to get a helm with a usable enchant such as : Dread Banner has #% increased effect, Zombies have increased Attack Speed, Zombies deadl increased Damage, Flesh Offering grants addionnal Attack Speed, Spirit Offering grants 12% of Physical as extra Chaos damage (keep in mind that zombies are doing a TON of phys damage, so that 12% is huge). See by yourself https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Delirium/3ngXvEJs5

In my opinion, Dread Banner echant and zombie attack speed enchant are the best, but expensive cause peoples realized since last league that Dread Banner is actually really good, so prices went up lol. I still can't believe I bought mine mid-league for 5ex last league lol.

Thank you so much for all the help forreal. do is replacing brutality support with spirit offering better? like overall damage
