My first minion build ever in 3k hours (huge fan of melee builds, never played anything but cyclone and flicker strike). I have a request if you don't mind. Would you be kind enough to update the skill tree to level 100? I'm not sure where to go on the tree past level 86. I love your build so far, i'm enjoying it very much but i'm kinda of a noob when it comes to minion builds. Thank you so much!!

In PoB the tree is available up to lv95/96. So you will be covered for now. ;)
Spec the last points as you like. In dmg, or res/hp/es. There are not that much "crazy" you can reach.

If you have a timeless jewel you can use the points to get other passives in radius too. It's up to you.

take a jewel socket near faith and steel - place 3rd eff training there. (this is expensive solution)

buy brawn crimson jewel or even 2 of them. place one near faith and steel and 2nd below barbarism. (cheap solution)

also u must update both of ur rings to 51+ str.

heavy belt is good.

refine belt via intrinsic catalyst for more strength.

utmost might not taked in tree. this node is a MUST.

Any suggestion on what skills to remove to get to the utmost might trait?

I won't changes anything really, levling to 85 don't take much time, specially with this build that clear content really fast and safelly. But if you reaally want to hit 1k strenght now... take the three points of Soul Steel, but you don't have mistress of sacrifice yet so resistances won't be cap. I think the best option is lvl to 85 and go for the last lab, with that you pretty much are done for any content.

Thanks man! :)

Until I've reached level 98 I'm playing with zombies on weapon, skeletons on chest, and the following combo powered by Soul Ripper:

Vaal Haste
+ Vaal Skeletons
+ Vaal Grace
+ Vaal Molten Shell

This while playing in Sand Stance and keeping Bone Armour on cooldown. We're not handling dps with this build so if you want an active play style you have to keep your defenses up. In comparison to this setup, speed build variations (including Geoffri with auras) are really less tanky. I can live with taking 5-8 seconds to down Conquerors if I have twice the eHP!

I finally completed my "mid end game" gear set, which I ended up financing with crafts I sold for a total of about 80ex:








Every upgrade from there on is going to be fairly expensive:

- A top ES/attribute stacking amulet to be even more of a tank. That's my next craft which I started working on, but then I'll need to adjust elsewhere to reach 155 DEX.

- Better rings and belt would cost 10s of exalts each at this point unless I have crazy luck. My second ring is weaker so I'll start with that one, aiming for STR + life + all res + chaos res + ES + minion damage.

- Rare boots? Not sure what would be a real improvement against Alberon's.

- Better enchant on Baron.

- Shaper's Touch with Vulnerability (but I like Temp Chains while pushing for these last levels).

- Awakener versions of my gems, and more lvl 21/20 or even 21/23 gems.

- Catalysts: I'll wait for Metamorph to hit Standard, which I'm almost certain it will.

- Is it really worth the risk of (double) corrupting items that are worth 1-30ex each?

- Going for a top shelf AG. I'm on the fence here, I hate the idea that I can lose several exalts if I'm not always super careful. Same thing as corrupting expensive items, I'm not sure I like the risk/reward ratio!

- Some crazy timeless jewel? But these are frustrating to get as there's no way to predict the outcome. This will probably be my last chase.


I also want a couple more white sockets on rings and weapon to make swaps easier, and flasks at 26% quality, so there's some Syndicate farming ahead.

Hey, how can I cap my resistances with all that mandatory uniques, they all give zero or low resistances!? Do I have to get jeweled for resi cap or?

You can refer to my tree if you want. I dropped a lot of points on the right side that gave ES+Life since I realized they weren't very helpful at all throughout the leveling phase with a statless armor like tabula, and also because I already planned to run Victario's auras so ES nodes wouldn't help as much as pure %Life nodes. If you plan on using Geofri's then you can keep them.

Quicky question, if you can't afford enlighten support level 4 gem, what should you do?

Is it still okay to run 3 aura's and to just not activate dread banner in that case?

I played with 3 auras without any enlighten till level 93. So just play, it's not needed just a nice extension. Use disciplin, dread/war banner and a curse and you are fine.

Use the setup for AG as described in the first post. My AG never ever was close to die. I made him up once and now he is immortal and works really great! Do it, you will not regret it. ;)

Thank you for the answer. I do plan on using the most defensive set up so yeah, Geofri's chest. Someone else also suggested to use the pob link, it goes up to level 96 in the st. I never used pob so i never payed attention to those links. Thank you again.

it probably previously asked but i can read 717 page:D why we wont use minion deal more damage on rings? is it only because of capping res or is there another reason for this?
