So of these four, which is the better choice for my next upgrade?

1) Buy a 21/0 'Raise Specter'
2) Skip the 21/0 'Raise Specter' and save up for a 21/20
3) Buy a 21/20 HoA to replace my corrupted 20/20 one
4) Buy a set of three Grand Spectum's

1) 3 grand spectrum
2) level 21/20 HoA
3) use a golem in the meantime as extra minion to get the onslaught buff

This has nothing to do with the above question, but where I get confused is why the Spectrum's are a big upgrade? It seems that I am giving up three jewel slots for 270 mana and a minimal amount of ES. I know that everyone seems to do this and I am sure that I am just missing something.

It's not a small amount of ES at all, they improve each other. You slot in 3 of them and you get a huge chunk of ES a result.

You may have something wrong if you are only seeing minimal ES growth.

With our mana scaling and radiant faith you should see a decent uptick in ES.

How Golden Rule jewel work? Does applying poison to myself give virulence stacks? Tooltip on HoAg says I gain virulence stacks when I poison enemy so Im abit confused now why we use this jewel.

That is correct.

The crawler procs and scales based on virulence stacks, no matter who has them, you or the bad guys.

Since we are CI, poison is meaningless to us so this is an easy way to keep max virulence stats at all times.

First off - I'm loving this build. So tanky, and I'm not even close to finished building it.

I feel like I'm missing something though - how on earth do we even have the skillgem slots to run Hatred, Clarity, HOAG, and SKitterbots? Are we junking Generosity at some point here?

They all fit. Check the first post in the skill gem sun section to see where they all go.

Can someone look over my character and tell me what to look at upgrading?

Currently Working on
+1 Skin
Weapon with 2 All gem modifiers
Boot/Ring change for Dual Curse

im still new to this game in general could some give me pros and cons of going skitter over discipline please. disc is easy to understand excalty wat it does skitter not so much.

The skitterbots chill and shock every single bad guy they can.

Shock provides an enormous amount of DPS gain. Look at your build in Path of Building and then turn on shock and watch the DPS jump for the Crawler.

From all tested Lethal Pride jewels so far I found only few good bonuses on notables:

- strenght % bonus
- fire resistance
- armor %
- life regeneration
- there is the intimidate buff but did not get one yet

I got also 5% chance to deal double damage but I guess this wont work for minions.

My question is at what combination you would considder the jewel decent and stop trying to divine or buy new one?

Because it seems I always get only 1 good mod like str % and rest some garbage like melee damage, totem damage etc.

ahhh i see now that makes so much sense tyvm.

Could someone tell me why i am not generating frenzy stacks. i dont think it is my gear or anything i think there might be something im not doing right while killing mobs that isnt generating the stacks. but i cant figure out wat that could be.
