Hello,
I'm dying very easily with this build. The guide says it's very tanky, so I must have made a mistake.
Any help welcome.
POB: https://pastebin.com/W2cv6N7E
I get 1 hit several times a day aswell, dont get me wrong, the build is strong, like I jump right back in and delete things however, I dont see how I will get past lv.95 without just spamming beachheads/breachstones b/c even with a 10k energy shield I get insta killed atleast 3x a day and I have like 50ex or more into my gear.
Damn... so I didn't even do anything wrong?
This build is so squishy.
I didn't look at your pastebin but looking at your gear it looks like you have way too much resists and not near enough strength.
Check your resists after cycloning and with minions up. So drop resists, get strength, and pick up some chaos resist it helps with the one shots

It all boils down to how you gear. Check my character, I dont die if I dont play completely braindead.
I have about 14kEHP, 77/76 all resists, 62 Chaos/75 chaos over time resist.
This build is super tanky.
Nice build. Will work towards something like this where possible.
How much did all the gear cost you roughly?

Yeah, fair enough. The extra resists were not intentional, but you're right. I'll refocus on more strength and get the Geofri's chest.

how come you dont use a bleed flask?
You are right. I switch from freeze to bleed.
Just use Bone Armor no need for a bleed flask as bone armor stops bleeding.

To explain it more clearly, with that mace you can get lvl 30 zombies,which gives zombies way more base damage, way more cooldown recovery for their slam.

Actually, there IS something like too much dps. You clearly lack the knowledge, like many people here pointed out already. So pls stop being so arrogant by repeating your point over and over like it's the holy rule; it's wrong, accept that.
ok
And you are?
No one offered arguments more than "Its just better" or "Hey your minions get offerings" like if they dont without, jesus. The only way to calculate the real differences was with POB and a bit of tricks, changing impale for minion damage is the only way to make Mistress more usefull than Command, but its hard for people like you to understand it.
Holy rule? You are ridiculous.
Okay than. Stay ignorant and arrogant, no point in arguing with you; it's useless. You do you buddy.

Mistress of Sacrifice permits your Offering skills to also affect you at a 25% reduced level.
So Spirit Offering provides us directly 3% of our maximum life as Energy Shield for each Corpse consumed which will be at least 5 corpses with Desecrate. Therefore every time we cast Spirit Offering we're getting 15% of our life as extra ES as a minimum. Your minions are getting 20% of their life as extra ES.
To fully understand the power of this, consider the detail that EVERY time we cast we instantly get that ES. So charge up your minions, spin away in a safe place away from danger and your ES is always up. Caution, chaos damage will bypass your ES and can kill you.
You also gain an extra 22% to your elemental resistances helping you to cap resists while most gear is focused on the build requirements.
Oh, and don't forget that with Spirit Offering your minions are getting a stonking 29% of their Phys damage as added Chaos damage which is effectively a 29% more damage. (OK, bosses have some resistance, but still this is massive)
In comparison with Commander of Darkness you get a very small increase to attack speed, an increase to minion damage, but that's not the same as More damage, and you get 20% to your resists and also to your minions.
For this build and how it works, Mistress of Sacrifice is by far the better option.
Your tree looks a little inefficient. You shouldn't need the Sacrifice wheel. If you're just using it to get minion leech, then grab the Jewel slot below pain attunement for 2 skill points and grab a jewel that has minion leech on it. Then you've got two extra points to play with.
Also, what's with Dynamo? You know that doesn't help with mana reservation reduction right? If you're only after some extra mana then instead take Arcane Will and you'll at least get some extra ES as well.
Respec Faith and Steel and use the two points to get the Jewel node below Stamina. You automatically get 10 more strength that way plus you get to throw in a cool new rare Jewel. Shop around, there are some very useful ones for good prices.
See if you can stretch to Soul of Steel, the extra max resist and the Phys damage reduction are very helpful.
First of all, you are wrong on everything.
Offerings offer nothing important to our character DEPENDING ON THE OFFERING YOU USING (Simply a bit of ES no stackable), you should read the skill. Mistress only offer duration, no improvement.
Sacrifice wheel is necesary, my minions never die, and i already got a life leech jewel.
Dynamo is because of lethal pride gives me 20str, total 80+ str, working perfect as it is.
Faith and steel is necesary.
Soul of steel Can wait.
Perhaps I worded my information poorly. I did not mean to imply that using Spirit Offering allowed us to stack ES. What it does do is allow us to refresh the extra ES allocation as fast as we can spin/cast it.
For me my ES goes from 2,963 to 4,657 (a gain of 1,694). My life pool is 5,701 so in real terms I'm getting just under 30% of my life as extra ES.
The Ascendancy doesn't offer a great deal directly to our minions, but it offers an enormous amount to us for survivability. There's little point in minions doing some extra damage if we've died.
Apologies for my points about your skill tree, I did not consider you were allocating in order to leverage the Lethal Pride attributes. I do note that since your earlier posts that you've now set your profile to Private. It is entirely your right to conceal your profile, but I feel it does diminish your standing when putting forward your points.
I would like to point out that you initially asked a question about "why Mistress of Sacrifice instead of Commander of Darkness". Following my post in which I provided reasons and justification you proclaimed that I was "wrong on everything". So it appears you have a strong understanding of the two options.
Subsequently you've engaged quite aggressively with other contributors. So I'm curious if you are actually here to contribute positively to this topic, helping others with understanding the various options, or are you just trolling? I actually think that you're English skills are causing you some comprehension issues and rather than give others the benefit of the doubt and asking questions you are blunt and aggressive with your responses.
There's nothing wrong with exploring variations to the core build and informing people of your experiences. It's one of the reasons this thread is so large now, the flexibility available and the number of different options that can be leveraged. So my advice to you would be, discuss a facet of the build but there is no need to be rude and aggressive when doing so. You'll get much further in life with that approach.

Aldora is correct in why I chose Mistress of Sacrifice.
It's simply a fantastic quality of life. I have tested extensively vs Commander of darkness and the difference in DPS is minimal (too small to notice) but the increase in quality of life from mistress is very noticeable.
There are many occasions when you'll be in a situation where you get hit hard, your ES is down and out, and a simply cyclone pops it back up. Has saved me from many, many deaths and allows us to tank bosses like Sirus.
