Hey!

Just wanted to say first that I'm absolutely blasting with ur builds. I don't remember when I had so much fun.

Also, I'm currently doing your league starter and I'm on white maps. I found Mont'regul's Grasp. I was wondering is it good alternative to rare wand that doesn't have any good stats for now?


Thank you!

For anyone playing with Pale Angels. Do they have the same mechanics as Slave Drivers ? Meaning its a lightning spell affected by inc AOE / conc effect ?

Also, are baranite preachers ball lightning damage affected by conc effect ? I remember this was not correct but some players recently told me that actually it does.

Hi! I'm transitioning from starter for the Impale skeletons.

Just a question, is worth to change the amulet anointment?

Death Attunement will only give +1 skeleton (which I must summon with a second cast). The 8% speed from the post was nerfed? (I only see the +1 quantity on the tree).

It's kinda option. I use it so I can use passive points to spend another place like cluster jewel.

I experimented a bit, here are other QoL improvements for the spiders build:


Saves you from casting the offerings, and offerings also affect you, with full effect. The downside is that you can't choose which offering is triggered. If you use Corpse Walker boots, by default you are always affected by an offering.


Great for recovery - refills your life/mana/es every 5 seconds. I recommend using Mind Over Matter passive, to make your ES usable for survivability. Also, it allows you to reserve all your mana pool, which is great.


The important part is the enchantment - fully heals you when taking a savage hit. Great for protecting against "2-shots", which are most of the deaths. If you're occultist, chaos damage over time should not be that much of an issue.


You activate the flask at the start of the map, then if you don't stop for too long, in many cases remains active until the boss fight.

Other stuff I experimented with, but was not really successful:
> Replica Shroud of the Lightless with 6x Minions Deal Increased Damage if you used a Minion skill recently - good dps, but having 6L spectres + auto-offerings is better.


Great for spiders, unfortunately it kills your other minions unless you invest heavily in minion chaos resist. The biggest issue is summoning spiders during boss fights, without other minions around, because you need to stop for a few seconds to cast desecrate, worm flask, and cast a spell manually to kill the worms. An alternative is to support your skitterbots with infernal legion, to kill the worms instantly, but costs an extra-socket, and some mana reservation.

I was also thinking about switching it out but not sure what I use instead at the moment. Do you have any ideas?

EDIT: honestly I have never fully thought about it, and I first thought its not that useful since you start removing zombies and spectres. And yeah the additional skeleton is not that useful for clearing, but at the boss you will be able to keep the number up. Also with best gear its +2 skeletons in total, so you want to cast it 2 times since especially with impale 1 skeleton alone can make a difference.

Anyhow switching it out for something defen oriented might be a totally viable choice. And I am just trying to figure out what would be the best option for defense/life

Oh I totally forgot about forbidden taste! I used it for 10k build too!!

Even if you don't have chaos res cap, you can also have amethyst flask with use when adjacent used.

Also with Queen's Hunger maybe the offering belt would be good (forgot name).

I went Determination after I was getting one shotted. I only have 5k EHP, but my phs reduction is about 65%, or more with flasks. I die every now and then, but it's so much better. Yes, elem still one shots me sometimes, but I die far less. As for Demon Herders. All I can suggest is you look up my necro under my username. I am SSF and my gear is not that great at all, but I am doing almost 1.5 million DPS right now without the correct curse (was running Slave Drivers before switching and never changed out my curses).

Switch out FF with something else, not sure what yet haven't found the best gem, but since they are physical spectres I would imagine there are a lot of choices that could increase damage a lot.

Yeah, I think my problem is I just love glass cannon build so I just stack DPS :P cwdt+IC is my defence :P

Is Demon Herder still strong? I saw GGG nerfed the damage in patch last week...

I will look at spectres again soon too.
