iLL3aT i advice u to use Skitterbots+Bonechill it will buff not just lightning skeles as wraith does and u can run 1 more aura like vitality or precision
now i think about low budget clusters, crit verision is too expensive for me for now what u think? sorry for bad English βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββ β βΌ EVIL βΌ βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ βββββββ ββ ββββββ ββββββ ββ β Clan β‘Evilβ‘ (Discord) https://discord.gg/faVmKsP Last edited by Lazer_Death#1838 on Jan 20, 2021, 3:54:58 PM

" Yeah I have skitterbots in the easier mages PoB since it’s very similar to the warrior archer version. The one I’m running now is more experimental and I’m seeing if I can push it’s damage higher than the base version. This is partly why its taking me so long to release a mage PoB. Ignore crit. Too expensive right now and you need two-three clusters to make it work after all the nerfs. 3.15 β Cold Skeletons guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2774965 Last edited by iLL3aT#4109 on Jan 20, 2021, 8:19:38 PM

" What clusters have you set up or are you planning? Is there somewhere an opportunity to see how the nodes will be located if I take a temporary reneval and fisting fiends? Speaking of POB, there seems to be a bug in the calculation of the critical chance, the actual one is only in the fire. The skeletons of Cold and lightning have a 0% crit chance. In addition, the randomness of their appearance does not allow you to determine exactly how the elemental equilibrium will boost you. It is a pity there is no way to find a shield that would translate all the elemental damage into one type or chaos. βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββ β βΌ EVIL βΌ βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ βββββββ ββ ββββββ ββββββ ββ β

" Probably just the same as the one cluster setup in the PoB. The other medium (used to be the aura one) cluster is still in progress - I'll add that one later once I play around in PoB some more. 3.15 β Cold Skeletons guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2774965

Whats the priority on wand mods to look for ? Is it minion dmg > +1 minion skills > attack speed ? ( asuming +1 +1 is uber end game )
|

" With how good the temple mod is (5% minion double damage, 50-66% minion damage), you're better off with one of these unless you can get +1 with a decent minion damage roll (40+) or minion attack speed(20+). The +1 offers some utility of minion life and 10% damage, but even then the temple mod probably adds more damage and costs about 10c. Ultra end game is +1/+1 with a pile of minion stats yeah. 3.15 β Cold Skeletons guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2774965

Skeleton Mage 1.0 added into 14(1). It's largely similar to the base build
I have a different approach to mages in mind as well, but that'll come later when I have more time. 3.15 β Cold Skeletons guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2774965

"The benefits of mages is that they are very fast at clearing compared to warriors, but suffer a lot comparatively in damage (per PoB, about 1/3rd as much with equivalent gear)."
So you're assuming that the damage of mages is 33% lower compared to normal skeletons? I sometimes switch to one or the other, check the damage on rituals, bosses, or guards. In fact, I see that the damage is about the same or even higher sometimes for mages. But I don't have the triad grip gloves. βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββββββ ββββββββ ββ β βΌ EVIL βΌ βββββ ββββββββ ββββββ βββββββ ββ ββββββ ββββββ ββ β

" Would wands with +1, minion attack speed (at least 15 minion attack speed), and crafted minion damage be better than temple wands? Currently sitting on five exalts but not in a hurry to upgrade where I'm at right now. |

As I understand - Primal Crushclaw is a main spectre for this build.
I found as well thank ape's with charges is incredible squishy on white maps. Also, sorry for my english, but what is result of skeleton mages? Are they better in high-end content than warriors? Or they only good at mapping and doesn't worth it on bosses(Uelder, A8 sirus etc.) |
