I don't think you should pick up the cluster node on this character. The tree is for a lvl 91 character, most people don't get past 95(I'd argue most people won't even get past 90), so that leaves only 4 points for your cluster node. Since you need to pick up 3(for this build useless)nodes to get there, I wonder if it's really worth it.

I'd also don't think grave intentions is really worth it, better get it as an annointment if you want the damage/movementspeed(that would leave open more points for that cluster jewel)

Also, do zombies really clear that well end game? I haven't used them as main damage ever since montregul was released(and even then, it was questionable).
Hey Appels_Zijn_Gezond!

The cluster node is there so that people can replace the current tree with whatever cluster jewel may tempt them. It's easier to not need jewels and use them as perks. Having the tree at 91 lets people choose if they care about clusters or not. It's a win for both.

Grave Intentions was taken for the defence only. It's a really strong cluster for Zombies when the Atlas is filled out. Zombies are amazing endgame but they have to live. Their clear and single target are both really good but they have to live. Chaos damage is a minion killer in A8 or triple-digit T16s. Of course, if you get an amulet with whatever anointed, make the necessary changes.

Feel free to make whatever changes you like as well.

Hmmm. Interesting. Only 1 curse and no Hatred or other usual stuff ^^

I kinda feel this zombie build became really tanky, but with low damage output.
Hey M_atrix!

By removing the "required" slow-mo from the build (and moving it over to a different build) I've freed up so much space that this build is just as defensive as last league's build but WAY stronger. It's around double the damage from 3.11. I'm excited for it!

I just want to say a huge thank you for the work you put into your builds.

You make the game accessible to a lot of people who can't manage zoom-zoom gameplay well, and your top tier formatting make your guides a joy to use. Slow-mo zombies are the reason I finally made it to mapping for the first time back in Conquerors, despite playing for years.
Hey DoctorGumby!

I really appreciate your thanks! I'm glad you were able to progress further and have fun doing it! I'm sorry I moved the slow-mo to another guide but if you play either of them, I hope you have fun. Thanks again for taking the time to be so encouraging. Your message was very thoughtful.

Hey nightymare!

It's really hard to choose with this build. Both Mistress and Bone Armour are big defensive perks. It's kinda crazy to save the +2 to minion gems for last. I'll be giving people the choice in the guide but Mistress first isn't a bad idea. You and your zombies get defence within your first Ascendancy.

And don't be sorry at all! Ask whatever you like! Especially since the guide isn't out to help. Thanks for your kind words. You're very kind.

Hey luciferus!

It's still a few days away. I started with my Red Minion Gem build, the RF Elementalist. That one should be done tomorrow. Then it's either the Occultist or this one. Thanks for your patience. I'm sorry it wasn't ready for launch.

Thanks to my new work schedule I might finally be able to start the league on Monday. I didn't play very much last league so hopefully this one holds my interest a bit better.

Glad to see your guide is still around, Wrecker. :) Looking forward to the full writeup.
Well they say patience is a virtue.

Waiting to play the league once the guide is done.

Plus maybe it will give GGG time to get some of the kinks out of Heist to make it a better experience.

Hey Katalaeia!

Always a pleasure. I just finished the RF guide and I'll be doing this write up next. Hopefully you enjoy the league. I'm playing this build this league and I'm loving it. ZOmbies are always slow until gem level 12...but I still love them. Thanks for your kind words :).
