💀3.15💀 iLL3aT’s Cold Skeleton Warriors/Archers/Mages ❆ League Starter ❆ All Content ❆

Hi ill3at!

Great build, I'm having a lot of fun. However, in T15+ maps I'm getting my rear end handed to me. I'm dying about every 1 in 2 or 3 maps. Sure, I'm not the best player but I'm trying to be careful. The Ultimatums are extremely punishing.

Here's my POB https://pastebin.com/Bm2Ma9yd

Would you mind looking and seeing if I'm doing anything wrong?

My AG has Kingmaker, Ephemeral, Southbound, Devoto and the Stich helm.

I guess I could use more HP somehow, but I really would like to see how I can improve.

Thank you.

PS - Update: I swapped out Flesh offering for Bone offering, then added a shield with high block/life on block. Allocated Ravenous horde to neck, took those points and invested in the block nodes. BIG difference so far.

I should have been more specific why i wanted it. I stuck on work and cant check PoB for the next 2 days...
Hello all, I'm currently playing the melee skelly variant with some starter gear. My damage is great around 12m Sirus but how can I increase my defences?

Current POB: https://pastebin.com/nxstgAFE

I am working towards getting Corrupted Soul which will give me another 1.2k+ ES, but what else can I do? I can tell once I get to higher awaken things are gonna hurt.
Currently at 5200 life, and my skeleton dps is great, but like a few other people in this thread, I am just getting deleted in T14+.

Is respec'ing to mistress of sacrifice, and going bone offering with a life on block shield the way?

My damage is fine and I don't feel like I need two wands right now (just completed A5 sirus).

Glorious vanity is still too pricey for me right now, and i'm not sure if that extra 1k ES would make that much of a difference.
Yo, am enjoying the build so far since it's my first minion build, just been wondering if switching to skele mages helps surviving ultimatums and generally tougher maps? I can't complain about my damage most of the time
(Pob calculates it about ~3.5 mil, but I'm not sure if it's that high, still need a few levels to polish my tree and clusters)

Also curious about giving up on my offhand wand for a shield, should we craft the trigger mod on our main hand for the offering then? Casting it manually is really clumsy.

Loving this build so far, thank you. Once i crafted my 4G triad grip I kind of became unstoppable (max % life corrupted tabula, janky essence crafted wand, random shield with lots of hp) and farmed myself the required amulets. Just need the awakener's orb now and then I can start thinking of endgame weapons!


Glad to hear!

Is there anyway to make this build just skeletons with no spectres,golems, or zombos?

Does anyone have suggestions what I could do? I have some sort of fascination with having a "pure skeleton" army but I have not found a build or created one yet.

I do like to run Vaal Summon Skeltons also. What about auras/skeletons, I honestly got no clue what could work.

Thanks honestly if you have any advice.


You would lose out on the support minions, providing much needed buffs (ele army, feeding frenzy). I guess you could replace it with a second skeletons gem, and summon the second skeleton whenever you need buffs. In short - remove anything non-skeleton and add a skeleton gem where the spectres are.

Early on, feeding frenzy in the clear setup is not so good - predator will help with more damage. Pretty sure a temple wand is better than a naked +1 wand as well, though I understand the +1 spell helps out the AG. The biggest hurdle early on is more damage IMO - if everything is dead, you should be fine. Your next goal may be to go for a blessed rebirth jewel (just buy a base and spam harvests on it).
