I am getting all sorts of shit on with this build this league. Zombies are dying pretty quick and I dont have enough to shell out for a 21/20 zombie or a +3 and minion life helm, not enough to shell out for an anomalous feeding frenzy to help them stay afloat, and my spectres (only 19 gem level right now) die every few maps.

Is this build worth exhausting every last penny from where my current character stands? I may suffer yet another reroll :(

Can someone point out anything else wrong with my build please via my profile?

Note: Getting my AG with Kinsmaker, Belly of the Beast, and Crown of Inward Eye made a HUGE difference, and his HP doesn't really budge. I only have 6700 ES and a phys to cold on shield and phys to cold WE with Regen with Discipline as well. It 100% doesn't feel like I regen 3300 ES per second either. Sounds like ALOT, but it feels VERY VERY low and scuffed.

Pure aptitude gives intel which gives mana. That could be it?

So a few easy things. You should have disc in one of your rings. That's a fair amount of missing ES. In a build that is struggling for gem slots, you have a portal. No flesh and stone. Vertex would probably be a better helm as well until you can get an elder base with +3/Minion Life/nearby enemies take 9% more phys. Doryani's is relatively inexpensive as well. You gain another gem slot there too. 6 passive medium clusters add a lot of aura effect too. Just a few things off the top.

ty very much ill improve on that!

what should i change on mx gear setup? should i go for vivinsects and vertex?

Vivinsects are just "easy" rings to pump your auras while also boosting stats. Not at all necessary. Any unset ring with stats/+socketed gem will do, and you can even do without the +socketed gem if you dont mind losing ES on discipline. You usually just want at least 1x +2 ring so you can have lvl 23 purity for the extra max res, the other purities will be fine in shield and from doryani.

For helmet i'd rather recommend a Bone helmet with +3 minion gem, +20 minion life, and a mix of whatever you're looking for. Chaos res, aspect of the spider, minion damage, nearby enemy take 9% phys... etc. It really depends on what you already have/can do. You can then slot AG in it for extra tankiness, maybe even Spectre+blood magic if your auras allow it, that way you get a 4th spectre.

Other than that gear looks fine. Other upgrade would include an end-game wand like skyraper above, but that's mostly minmaxing territory due to its price point (~35ex++)

ty! great input!
