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

I need help, i dont understand why Gem Links in this post is different from evertyhing else for example

gloves
OP Skill Links setup:
Vaal summon skeleton- Feeding frenzy - Awakened brutality - Multistrike

PoB skill links setup:
Flesh and Stone - Maim - Purity of Elements - Enlighten

OP Sockets:
Convocation - Enduring Cry - Second Wind - Dash

Could someone help me, which one should i follow?

Are people not maxing their Elemental resists ?

Looking at the Gear im not seeing in POB people maxing it ?

I love the build so far, but every time i run a tier 13+ i can be 1 shot so easily idk what i am doing wrong in my defenses. I am not running Pride as i didnt get master of command yet, but the dmg is not the problem. I am 1k+ str , got shaper bow with avian, 6L saqawal... what should my hp and other defenses be at this point because i feel weak?

After importing to pob you need to allocate the points in cluster jewels (pob doesn’t do that automatically) and sometimes there are resist by timeless jewel which pob can’t calculate.

EDIT: I checked my POB and the shaper bow only gives 0.8%dps compared to normal bow. That's kinda weird.

Are you sitting at %90 maxed chaos res with glorious vanity jewel right now? If not, it's normal you're getting 1 shot killed in most of situations. (Other resistances also should be maxed out to 75)

Edit: You should also have min 6k hp, try crafting +HP on your jewels and available rares (Quiver, for example). You also need 2-3 fettle notable cluster jewels to have decent max hp.

Actually I have the same feeling: have ditched my conventional Queens Hunger non-cluster build with 5.5K Life and 1.5 ES for this build bc I felt too squishy in T16 maps. Now I have 5K Life and 86% chaos res and 60% block but feel way more vulnerable than before, getting killed by even random mobs in T14 maps...(wtf right?) The cluster, Chaos Res and STR-stacking set up takes away more life nodes than I had before (which results in the loss of 500 health). I already invested more Ex than I wanted in this build and I'm hesitant to drop another 10 ex for Bow/Chest just to be disappointed by the results. (I'm on console where prices are insane btw).

1- You should hit %90 chaos res. Use born of chaos cluster jewel & %2 max chaos res quiver.
2- You should have HP around 6,5k-7k. Try getting more life from jewels & rares. You will be vulnerable with 5k HP in "any kind of" summoner build.
3- You should be using bone offering & bone armor continuously. Assigning bone armor to left click works awesome.
4- Are you using baron with 1k str? The leech multiplier should be the highest value for more survivability (1.99% leech).

If you're having trouble with one-two shot deaths, use "evade after savage hit" node in pantheon, it helps a lot.

Edit: Fully upgrade your "Soul of Lunaris" pantheon node, it will drastically increase your survivability for ranged enemies.

Honestly 75% chaos res is fine for most content, its really only ultra specific things that hit reaaaaaaly hard with chaos.

the real killer is physical still from my experience. Most summoners dont really have alot of physical mitigation or armor.

Usually just 10% base plus 3000 - 15000 armor with the help of a granite

That and damage as element X mods on maps are always lethal.

I got to 95 on just 23 chaos resistance afterall And the only things that seem to kill me are large blobs of influence mobs stacked up on other

Are you aware of we're using glorious vanity jewel? It applies %50 of elemental damage as chaos damage, and other half as normal elemental damage. Since you have huge amount of chaos res, you will have up to %30 damage reduction for incoming elemental damages (You can find the calculation on first post)

You can use 2L raise skeleton and use enduring cry, it will give you 3 endurance charge. Basalt flask also helps.


I think one of the reason I died a lot is because the zombies are usually behind you, thus you became the shield and took all dmg while waiting for them to run toward. I change from bone offering to flesh offering, and use these


so zombies can be the shield and kill mobs much faster than before, thus I rarely get hit at all. Don't forget convocation.
