Not sure if this is mentioned anywhere but you should be able to utilise spectres and AG. I'm using them on basic alc and go T16 and seems fine so far, will report back to see how they fare in more juiced content and bossing. I'm using this

with anomalous controlled destruction, which should result in zero crit and thus no downside from Ancient Skull. I've also spec'd into Grave Intentions, +8 max res mastery and Decay Ward (using Impossible Escape with Necro Aegis) to give them a bit more tank for not too much investment. I use Carnage Chieftans and Arena Master, and will use They of Thul if I can somehow get the 3rd spectre without too much investment.

Word of warning: I would not recommend using AG without at LEAST +3 (shield or helm) and linked to minion life and/or meat shield. I had a 21/20 Divergent AG linked to anom controlled destruction (for no crit) with the +1/30% quality from ashes and wearing doppelgänger’s guise, and he got whacked in a Forgotten invitation.

IMO, it’s not worth the gem links. I was only using it because I already had him geared out from my previous build.

Thanks for posting your build guide.

I farmed up a squire on my mapper character, and am trying to get this witch built to do bosses and uber bosses.

This is where I am at so far:

Do you have a build recommendation with the squire in the build but no mageblood?

Things I know I need to do:

1. fix my flasks
2. change crafts on the chest, or get a new chest. Thoughts here on a leash of oblation and queens hunger set up?
3. Elder implicits on gloves/chest/boots.
4. get a few more levels and pick up lethe shade and the corrupted soul node(had this earlier and it felt like it was killing me.)

Anyone have recommendations to get this tankier and be ready for pinacle and then uber bosses?

Appreciate the help.

Can someone take a look at my character and let me know if I should be getting something before The Squire?

Have about 30ex saved up working towards The Squire but losing patience I suppose.. I know I can level and buy the Watchers Eye but I feel like acquiring the shield is a game changer.

Thank you.

Edit- Scratch that boys, dropped my first mirror.

How do you manage to get enough damage while going for Ghost Dance? I'm running occcultist with double 35% + 3% cluster setup and Amanamu's and I feel like my damage is about the same as yours while being way more squishy to the point where I can't get past wave 28 of simulacrum.

Here's my POB if you'd take a look, https://pastebin.com/V85Snbgs
I'm sure there's much to improve, I have about 30ex for upgrades
