Interested in trying this, so just doing some small research while at work.

I do have some currency saved up, but not nearly enough to buy a staff which seems to go for atleast 15ex unlinked if you want minion damage and +1 to level of socketed gems..

So my question is, can this build do all content with all the gear except for staff?

Lets say, i have enough currency to buy everything needed for this build, apart from the staff. Jewels, gear, 6 link armour etc..

And if i were to buy all the gear, and use a Queens 2h sword, can it clear most content?

Im not looking to do delve 1000 or sirus farm.

I want a comfortable build to do T16 mapping and the new guardians. Maybe Shaper / "Normal" elder when i get the chance to.

So to recap, can afford 6 link armor, 6 link queens sword and the rest of the gear, but not staff.

Never played a minion build before in my life so excuse me if i seem stupid!


u will be fine at all content without crafted staff too, after all once u rich 1k delve or sirius farm, u probably will have some resources for crafting weapon. if u plan to delve, my personal advice is to go with geofri chest, instead of newly suggested victario. with that shield from spirit offering and geofri+shaper gloves and u will be able to travel in darkness for getting hidden fossils without any fear. it takes about 40s+ running in dark for me, before ill get killed by darkness dmg. also be sure to get chaos resist, preferably without CI.


Sweet, thanks.
I will buy queens escape and victario chest, i wont be delving at all. Just mapping :)

Actually i have another question, what are the main differences for Victario chest and Geofri chest?

Also i noticed that maybe the gem list is outdated? Says minion in chest but most people seem to run auras in chest now?

What do you think about using skele mage and not warriors?

Back again, I made a post out of frustration last night that I was done with the build (happens after you die a lot and lose your AG with a few ex worth of gear to Sirus lol) After cooling off and retooling a little bit, I feel much better. I decided to give up skellies and go straight zombies with auras and victarios. I also changed back to the OP's skill tree he is currently using.

I feel like the zombie/aura playstyle is much smoother and easier, and I also feel more tanky. If anyone would like to check out my setup feel free. I am actually running purity of elements in my gloves to help cap resist and sync with my watchers eye for max chaos res. While skeletons (especially vaal skels) do nice single target dps, I just feel more comfortable with the zombie setup.

I am wondering if we can replace AG with something else more useful? if anyone has any ideas I am open to suggestions.


Hi,
I'm also thinking of dropping zombies and switch to aura's. Just one question - why are you using clarity lv.1 in ring?
For what I understood was, that an aura should be used if we take commander of darkness.
thx
If you have some time you should prbly add/rewrite the crafting guide a bit OP. I see a lot of ppl doing it wrong. The best way to craft a miniondmg +1gem 2h-weapon from scratch is to buy the 2hand base already 6linked and without influence for ~40c and essence spam it. It's not super clear what you have to do if you wanna craft it from scratch because you assume they drop the base or get it from trading.

He uses it for the extra ES from the watchers eye.

Why are we running a level 1 Clarity with this setup?

Hmm, dont think so - his watchers eye has no mods with clarity on it.

for watcher's eye buff.



I have a question to people who tested both weapon version(queens escape and Femurs of the Saints) after all the nerfs is it better to run with extra lvls and dmg from femurs or we can still get enough dmg from queens (in terms of farming t16s metamorphs etc)

Oh I thought u were talking about OP. If someone else uses it without commander of darkness and watchers eye it's prbly just a mistake. Pretty sure it's usless without those two.

I was in the same boat as you, I would probably start with chest 6L and wep 6L buy one of the cheaper swords, damage will be more than fine for mapping. I've played quite some hours now with this build and I can just say I love it. Got decent gear now aswell so im just shredding thru everything. Thanks!


Now im running this:


Why geofris chest? A 5l victarios is practically free. U want more ES?

But it has Purity of elements in which he uses so he gets the chaos resistance which is not bad.
