Acid Caverns spawns two random bosses from a pool of eight. One of these bosses, Morgrants the Deafening is responsible for numerous player and AG deaths. Here's the reason why from the Wiki:

"Morgrants uses a monster-only variant of Spectral Throw that triggers Storm Call, Flame Call and Frost Call at random on every single hit. Since Spectral Throw can hit multiple targets and the trigger has no cooldown, Morgrants can proc hundreds of Calls a second against minions. If the map has additional projectiles and the player uses Vaal Summon Skeletons, Morgrants' DPS may potentially reach the billions."

Last league I used to run Acid Caverns and then every now and then, my AG and minions would just get deleted. Ever since then I just avoid it because if I've learned anything from playing this game, it's that RNG is a spiteful bitch.
Hello there, i looked back alot of pages and i did not find the question i have.

Im looking over the Awakened Multistrike gem and searched some on google. Found some Reddit posts that says that it is not worth it for a necro build. And some say that it is.

What do you think about it, is it worth to invest 60+ex(at current rate in leauge) in a gem. Or am i better of putting that currency into something else in the build ?

Your characters are currently hidden. You'll need to make these public so we can see your gear and tree in order to be able to help you.


ok I have set my Characters to public.


Alright, I'm going to assume looking at your tree and gear that you're just over 1200 strength and wanting to hold that level for the extra Zombie. Let me know if I'm wrong about that though.

Overall your build seems fine in relation to gems (obviously, finish levelling them) but if you're struggling with survivability consider slotting in Flesh and Stone and using the Sand stance. The blind attribute is phenomenally strong for defensiveness and probably one of the most underestimated mechanics in POE. I've dropped Blasphemy and just manually curse bosses when I need to. Everything else dies so quick I really don't think you need a curse as an aura.

You should drop the belt and craft (or buy) a descent Heavy Belt to get Strength, Attributes and some needed resists. You should also swap out your Amethyst ring for one with a high strength roll and whatever resists you need. If you get luck with your belt crafting and resists, you should be able to pick up a reasonably priced ring to fill the gaps.

Are you overdoing your resists with the tree? Don't forget that Spirit offering boosts your resists as do your minions so check your real level once these are active, not what your passive reading is.

Your non-core jewels are absolute garbage. You've got three slots to play with and you're using them mostly for Strength (total of 36). Respec one skill point and grab Physique and you get 30 strength alone. Go buy some Ghastly Jewels as they role minion mods and at the very least get one that gives leech to your minions. This will help make them near immortal. You can also get Phys damage for minions, resists for them and all sorts of other goodies that will help.

Respec the three points in the Quick Recovery wheel, they are totally unnecessary for this build. You don't need any extra mana regen and with Baron leech, your own life regen is redundant. Instead use these points to complete Grave Intentions wheel (two points for you, and there's your third extra point for Physique).

Once you've sorted your gear you also shouldn't need the three points around Diamond Skin so you could use them to push for more strength or other Defensive measures. If you come around the top from the Influence wheel, three points would get you to Written in Blood for 12% life, 15% ES and 10 more strength.

Alternately look at the Soul of Steel wheel where 4 skill points will get you 10% all elemental resists, +1 max all resists and 5% Phys Reduction which are all great defensive measures. Oh, and 10 extra strength too.

Lastly, consider your play style. Are you cycloning through bosses or sitting back and letting your minions tank while you spin at a safe distance? Analyse your deaths and work out why they happened? Did you push too high with your maps, are you rolling them too dangerous? Are you keeping your flasks up and using Bone Armour when necessary?

Hope that helps and good luck!
Del.

Today I noticed that burning earth now does damage even with a cyclopean coil belt. I understand that maybe "ignited" and "burning" are different things, but before I always do maps with burning earth mods without taking any damage. So it was a bug?

Spoiler


Burning ground has always done damage (altho perhaps GGG up'ed the damage for 3.9??). In the past my regen was normally enough to counter the effects of burning ground. In 3.9 I find myself using the Soul of Aberath pantheon when doing BG maps and I'm confident that Al-Hez isn't going to pay me a visit.

"We tell people that Path of Exile league starts are a fair playing field for everyone, and we need to actually make sure that is the reality."

A BLATANT LIE by the HMFIIC.
Perhaps GGG should consider a leadership change.
Would you priorize Skitterbots + Summon Holy Relic or swap those 2 gem slots for Flesh and Sand + Maim?

I also wonder if I somehow could get Pride + Discipline + Skitterbots/Flesh and Stone + Purity of Elements active at the same time. Would a Baron with 15% reduced Mana reservation for Pride enchant be enough to achieve that?

I like the chill and shock from the Skitterbots but would like to get Purity of Elements to get the +50% Chaos res from my Watcher's Eye activated.
quick question: what is the easiest way to gain endurance charges? i had to take the passive "Endurance" for my lethal pride 5%Str and was wondering how i could make some more use of it.

Not sure if this has been mentionned before, but linking Holy relic with culling strike is a great dps boost against bosses as the proc rate of Holy relic is very short.

That was my daily 2 cents contrib ^^

if the AG has Kingmaker, would the Holy Relic minion already have culling strike?
