Hello Deadandlivin and fellow build-followers,
first of all, thank you very much for the build and your discussions to upgrade. Standard player here. Have few comments/questions;
Is it mandatory to put awk cold pen into spectre links? I have put it into shield – zombie/feeding frenzy/aw cold pen. I think it still gives exposure, which golem/spectre will benefit from. Is that right?
After changing amulet from +1/+1 to aul’s, I run both determination and grace, which makes defense so good. No problem about defense.
I have invested ~1k exalts into this build last league. I have zero problem with clearing running with 5 SO. I even did not need to put inpulsa/gravebind on AG. My single target dps criteria is killing a8 sirus before he makes his move in last phase or not (which lasts around 2sec i guess). When fighting sirus, I am changing spectre links to spectre/miniondmg/hypo/edwa/increasedCritDmg/predator. It is not possible to 1-shot him (5-10% hp left). I will try putting 2primal crushclaw and 3SO and try.
As you can see my items are pretty much similar to your first page minmax build (not the mirror tier krangeled stuff). I know i have not very good ring and some updates are available for wand/boots etc, but any suggestion to improve is very much welcome. I can share POB if you need.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, nice gear :)

Since you seem to have unlimited money in standard these are some things you could try out:

- Get a third curse with AG.
For this to work you need to get an Assassin's Mark ring for yourself instead of Frostbite.
What you do then is put +2 curses on Animate Guardian and give him Synthesized gloves with Frostbite on hit.
You'll be running Windscream boots on him should craft a +1 Curse chest with 3% health regen Hunter mod. Can also craft some cool things like 8% health et.c. on the chest. This should boost your dps alot for single target.

The minmaxed PoB uses a brittle on block shield, ALOT of dmg comes from that 5% base crit from brittle. This shield is VERY easy to craft.
However, might not help you with your goal at oneshotting Sirus because I don't think he will hit them allowing for a block to occur.

Other than that, honestly.. Getting the mirrored helm I use would be a big dps upgrade for you. Around 20% more Golem dmg by getting 25 minion dmg/hypothermia and 1% more crit chance.

About the Awakened Cold pen on zombies, it's actually a nice idea.
Curious though, what support gems do you run on the spectres?
Awakened Cold pen is actually very strong dps increases against bosses on the spectres. It's just worse against normal mobs.

Under skin of the lords tag you have outdated info, please update the color sockets because new people coming into the build may be confused, also clean it up it has alot of old info about your setup in this written guide. Not everyone will look through the pages to see your current guide and your pob's are different from what's written here and people will be confused.

Thank you for the prompt answer. I may try the new AG setup with 2 curses, thanks. Upgrading items will be difficult as unfortunately I have limited currency left.
I run 5 SO with these links
for mapping – spectre/aw gmp/phantasm/aw minion dmg/div hypo/increased critical damage (or aw vicious proj)
clear is absurdly good with spectres, therefore I did not have to minmax or change gems. I even sometimes forget to change from bossing setup while mapping, and difference is not obvious.
For bossing – spectre/aw edwa/div hypo/aw minion dmg/increased critical damage/predator
First I will try 2 crab + 3 SO and see the difference. I may put cold pen into spec links and also observe.

Can someone help me. I know OP says in the 3.16 update to get Phantasm but what gem do we remove for the spectres? Also can you please provide some example gear for low budget tanky version. I'm getting blasted in maps tier 1 maps and I'm still using the fire golem leveling build he recommended. Any advice is appreciated.

If anyone has a moment to help regarding multiple block that would be appreciated. In game I seem to have a block chance of like 12/22 or something crazy low like that.

Thanks

I just got a 3b 2g 1r Skin of the Lords for 30c but with Ancesteal Bond. Does it mess up with the build? Does the BV trigger still works?

thank you very much for your prompt reply, it is appreciated that you bother to check my build.

Throughout the construction of my build, I have had a few questions:

1) For Elemental equilibrium, I had to add ARC, to do elemental damage that is not cold, with blade vortex works? since it does physical damage.

2) What spectrums to select? which ones do you recommend?


Thank you very much and best regards,
