why aren't we running carnage chieftain with clarity instead ? Does stoneskin give more utility or something ?
I have it listed as an option under choose spectres.
Stoneskin is basically immortal and well suited for deep delves and whatever content that normally kills
With carnage chieftain I replaced meat shield with minion life, kept feeding frenzy and beat Sirus without losing one, and I haven't lost one in mapping for a while. With 20/20 clarity and four of them, I don't have problem maintaining 3x frenzy charges.
Is there a rule of thumb with specters that they should all be one type or can you mix and match to try and get various mods/skills from different specters?

If you have enough mana regen you can run a combo of carnage chiefs and host chiefs, or 3/1. Personally I'm running 4 carnage chiefs with level 10 clarity. I had level 1 clarity the other day and was noticing much less frenzy charges so I bought a 1% mana reserved jewel and leveled up clarity to 10. It's all a balancing act.

what is the relationship between the Chiefs giving frenzy and using clarity at a higher level?

I don't think anyone has exact numbers on carnage chieftain's mana pool or regen. (or massfrenzy cost).
It has a 6 second cooldown, but charges fall off after 10 seconds. Carnage chieftains don't have the mana/regen to cast it every 10 seconds, so you need blood magic (basically infinite mana) or clarity (to regen every 6 or so seconds). Clarity 1 or 2 is not sufficient, 13 (Level 1 Nessa sells at) is plenty, NSUCK above reports 10 is enough.
I've been playing carnage chieftains as well. I'd prefer stoneskin flayers for Sirus, and I did see Al-Hezim(sp? snakes guy) wipe the four of them at once. Otherwise they don't die overly often, but it happens. Cortex boss wrecked them, and my cheapo AG.

ahh I see! Thanks.
When you use chieftains, do you still use the Poacher's Mark curse or do you change it up?

I'm not certain 10 is enough, I just switched and am watching. I do have 20 quality though so its more consistent. If its not enough I technically could get another 1% mana reserved jewel but they are super expensive for the more expensive jewels.
Loving to play with a really tank build for the first time, just crafted that wand going for a Mana as ES next, thx for the build.
projectile speed is REALLY bad. please meta craft this. you have one of the best +2 wands in the league. it will only take 4ex to finish it off so it's worth it
