Hello, I am planning to start Heist with this one. I did some test runs and it feels good through leveling (did only till Act 7/8). How is the experience during T1 to T5 maps? Can it be done on a 4L or 5L with decent clear speed?

I did a test run of it on SSF through ~T6 maps and it was working fine on a corrupted 5L from Vaal side areas. However, I was using only physical skeletons/zombies (on SSF, can't go cold until I get Triad gloves.) Decent clear speed, good bossing.

Used Skeletons / Impale / Minion Damage / Brutality / Melee Splash.

The balance manifesto just announced that a lot of the cluster jewel notables this build uses are getting nerfed, so I'm curious to see how much of an impact that will have.

So I ran this build in harvest. But I didn't use cluster jewels because I crafted them for profit instead. It was still my boss killer. I was getting 800k sDPS per skellies with 11 skellies. It was my league starter and I don't invest a lot of currency into my league starters. They're to kill A8 awakaner reliably. When I can do that I stop investing and save up for a clear speed build.

The only downside is you don't get that small window of invulnerability for the skellies. But it wasn't too big of a deal. I was still doing A8 awakener deathless without clusters.

I can't stand still not having any info about the archers even with the patch notes out, how is one supposed to choose a leaguestarter :p

All in all it seems like skellies are still in a good position after this patch...


Although I don't understand how mark works now....our only option is to self-cast mark skills?

It looks like it's still possible to trigger mark skills:

"

Items which Trigger a Mark on hit now only do so when hitting Rare and Unique enemies.

Frostbite hex now has 25% chance to freeze which looks nice.
