If you want even more boss dps, Sniper's mark is the one. Skelly mage cast projectile spell so that's like 40% more dps on boss.

Thinking more defense for Ultimatums. Considering something like Molten Shell or Fortify or something like that.

You get fortify from AG for free... well, for a money :-). And if you have some decent armor, Vaal Molten Shell is your friend, i think it now gives me like 3k shield for 20s, with 3.14 vaal skills buff it charges really fast in ultimatums.

You can try out Profane Proxy ring with enfeeble/temporal curse if you prefer a more defensive setup.
And you still have links left for another setup

I didn't fully understand what an auto Enfeeble actually meant until I played it :) The bots skate off to stuff that isn't even on the screen yet.

Lots of thanks for that. Loads of killer info in this thread.

As of right now, I have my Bone Offering in my Fleshcrafter and that's it. No idea what to do with the 4L and stand-alone gem slot. I could put Bone Offering all by itself and do another 4L of.. something. I did Efficacy Support but could also do Increased Duration. STR and INT are the same. For some reason, I don't have DEX stacking since I don't use Desecrate any longer.

Wayyyyy more survivability with this setup. Since the Hex stuff goes away once you hit Vaal Skellies for an Ultimatum, all you are doing is Bone Offering. I've never run a single click build in my life. I don't know what to do with myself. I keep reaching for the other keys. Since you can only have one curse I am trying to think of something for those other 4 empty slots. It's killing me.

how much dps am i losing if i replace ele focus with gmp? im almost done with campaign and i might just swap the gems out for boss fights.

What's AG? I don't know all the acronyms yet

I will have to check out Vaal Molten Shell, thanks!

Don`t get gmp get lmp and you lose only 5%

I don't think generosity will affect skitters because it originally doesn't affect you already. For amulet, any +1 skellies is better than sidebreath. Has anyone tried punishment for mapping? It should help getting more damage on non bosses, specially for people using flesh crafter.

Interesting. Enfeeble vs Punishment. Might as well try it and see how it goes.

Any thoughts on Steelskin?

Hi, I am new to poe this league, and am now level 92 and just finished the uber lab. I was wondering, do we self cast bone armor, is there a way to make it automatically cast? or are we sticking with Immortal call and just taking bone armor ascendancy for the extra tankiness it provides?

Haven't tried Steelskin... but if your looking to be more tanky.

I started running 3 min endurance charges and it feels pretty good for survivability.

I picked up a Vaal Molten Shell for cheap, and with Bone Offering I linked in an Increased Duration. Vaal Skellies is 40 seconds, VMS is 20. Bone Offering is 11.30 and regular Molten Shell is 7. I work them into my normal rotation if I start to sweat a little. Then in Ults, I will kick Vaal skellies and shell. Works out well so far.

Still have two slots to fill with something. May level a Spectre or something. Would rather have more D than O at this point.
