3.11 - Stress-Free PoE! SLOW-MO ZOMBIES: No Required Items! 1-Button Play! SSF League Start-End!
" Hi guys, can i ask the reason why you give up on meat shield skill for your zombies ? do you put it on in other place or just completely drop it ? Is there any involvements for the rest of the build ? i'm just starting this build, i know it is versatile but i don't want to make mistakes ^^ thanks a lot Last edited by pat_hibulaire#2034 on Jul 1, 2020, 6:39:54 AM

" I am experimenting with dropping it entirely. If I find my survival is going down, I will put it back. Last edited by AndyLovesHisBge#5265 on Jul 1, 2020, 7:13:00 AM

" You can't make mistakes. All it takes is to change some gems if you don't like it. Meat shield gives you a little bit different playstyle. It's a slower paced style and safer in mapping + it benefits pure physical zombie/phantasm build and makes zombies more unkillable, both minion types benefit from the damage increase too. But at the same time Meat Shield can be a little bit tricky against some bosses/metamorphs, because you have to be very near them for zombies to get aggro and some bosses have very high damage AOE. I personally dislike this playstyle, so I ditched it even before mapping. You should try everything, only then you will learn about different mechanics and their pros and cons. ^^ |

" ok thank you, i play without shield charge and don't like to be on the front line, so maybe it's better for me to ditch it or maybe link it on spectres ? well, as you said i'm gonna try and see what's best for me thanks again for the explanation |

" Congratulations, these boots are a dream that has come true! How did you craft it? I see that Fortify comes from the Elder base, but I wonder how to obtain + 1 to Spectres. Overwhelmed by Path of Exile? You might want to have a look at Wrecker_of_Days' beginner-friendly guides.

" Thank you. Actually this patch they made it possible to roll this suffix on Elder boots (I think many delve mods are now craftable on influenced items) First time I managed to get fortify and +1 to raise spectre gems mods with alteration spam, but after regaling it, I rolled some bad ones and I had to redo everything. But this time I was lucky with harvest crafting. Physical or attack seeds guarantee Fortify roll and all you have to do is to pray for spectre roll and other good stuff. I had saved some other harvest crafts, like augment with fire modifier (which got me 40% fire res) Harvest is amazing for crafting what you want. You just need to know what you're looking for. |

"Awesome SirCalmness! Thanks for saying "hey" and for the kind words! I'm glad it's going too. You rock. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast

"Hey Tolgrim! Thanks for the thanks! I appreciate the kind post :). I'm glad you're having a good time! The change to cluster jewels is that Medium and Large cluster jewels will be guaranteed 1 and 2 jewel sockets respectively. That's really only news if you've played with Cluster Jewels before. The mods you're looking for on these jewels however can be endless. You're essentially looking for the same mods you already have on the provided tree (minion damage, your survivability, minion survivability...), but hopefully better. There are notable nodes on cluster jewels that are specific to only cluster jewels. Here's a list of all the mods that can roll on your jewels. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast

"Thanks pat_hibulaire! That's very kind of you! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you're having so much fun! It's not a stupid question at all! GGG's tags can be confusing. The bottom line of your question is that all curses, no matter how you apply them, still apply to the character's curse limit. So because we want to have two curses applied to an enemy at the same time, we still need the "permission" to do so. On a side note, even though the auras act as curses, they don't actually count as curses in-game. So items/mods that improve auras won't improve curses linked with Blasphemy. Good question! Ask more if anything comes up! https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast

"Hey AndyLovesHisBge! Phantasms count as minions and they'll benefit from all linked supports. That being said, they attack with projectiles, they aren't melee. So the supports that I have linked have Phantasms in mind. The PoB provided shows a level 20 Phantasms doing 33k DPS per phantasm without any items. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast
