Could Fleshcrafter be an option for pushing negative enemies‘ res?

Flesh crafter makes it so enemy resistances always are zero so can't go negative.

The benefit of running Flesh crafter is that we don't have to get any penetration or exposure et.c. from the rest of our pieces since everything has 0 res with that chestpiece.

Bosses have 50% elemental resistances so we only need to get -50% res from sources to make any other setup better than Fleshcrafter.

EE: -25%
AG Helm: -9(12)%
Minion Mastery: -8%
Frostbite: -11% (66% reduced effect from curses)
EW(Animate Guardian): -10% (66% reduced effect from curses)

This adds up to a total of -63% cold resistance putting bosses like Sirus at -13%.

A Skin of the Lords setup has the added benefit of:
-13% reduced boss resistances (Normal monsters and rares will have -63% since most of them don't have any resistances)
- 2 levels to chest gems
- 100% global defenses

What do we gain running a Flesh Crafter:
- We open up a Curse slot since we don't have to run Frostbite.
This means we can run an Assassin's Mark on hit ring.
- We gain 1 skill point because we don't need the mastery
- AG can run 6% increased elemental dmg helm instead of cold pen helm.
- Ag can run Enfeeble or Temp chains corruption on gloves.

The biggest benefit of running Flesh Crafter is that it helps alot in Simulacrums. Some Sim mods have ~80% cold res mods for monsters.
That puts bosses like Kosis at 130% cold res. Our normal setup with curses and EE puts them down to 67% cold res which hurts pretty badly while fleshcrafter brings them down to 0%.

Wow What a great Guide. This is surely one of the most comprehensive and best guides i've seen on PoE or any other ARPG.

I am really looking forward to your 3.17 installement of the guide. Recently i am searching for a 3.17 starter capable of bossing and more of an all around build because i usually play only 1 build a league due to limited playtime. Do you have an estimate when the Guide is Updated throughout the sections? Thx

Awesome guide thank you, looking forward to trying it for the delirium event

Hey, I am looking around in the forums as 3.17 preparation kicked in for me - done with the league and actually planning to start a summoner for the first time in my PoE-History :D

Just wanted to say thanks for the well-put guide, that is probably one of the best guides I´ve seen in the forums in terms of detail, structure. VERY fun to read. I´ll have another look once it is updated for 3.17, not sure if I am going to start this as I tend to play more off-meta-variants (and there are ones for summoner too) but this was really enjoyable to get into the whole mystery of summoner. Thanks!

The guide is going to be updated before 3.17.
As for each individual section, I will be going from the top to the bottom.
I will start by finishing the high budget version, then move to the medium budget > Low budget > Leveling.

I will start updating after New years and plan to finish one section per day.

Make sure to run the latest PoBs. I've done more changes after the invasion event to finetune everything.

- Leveling: https://pastebin.com/5ScP5JKp
- Early/Yellow Maps: https://pastebin.com/hNkknRgY
- Low Budget: https://pastebin.com/caYyXgrE

Alot of information are in the notes so make sure to read up on them.

I am still amazing reading your guide. Realy, realy awesome.
I never play minions build and i ever imagine how many aspects it has.
In future guide please add part above spectres : with one using, where get one, when to change it etc. This information we can find in you guide but in many different parts. e.g Hyrri.s Watch - how to get one ? on map with legion mod ? or somwhere else?

Anyway, awesome work and build.

Unless you play SSF, the best way to get any spectre is to ask for it in /global 6666

I added sections to have to spawn Primal Crushclaws and Hyrri's Watch aswell as Frost Auto Scouts for leveling.

But as mentioned, you're always best of trying to get them from a global channel. Both Hyrr's Watch and Primal Crushclaw spectres kinda are like Syndicate Operatives and they're extremely annoying to get.

I know that's look like a noob question but how we trigger our aura in boots?
Manually ?
And manually use Offering and Curse ?
