Is there only 1 build that can do simulacrum?
|
I've done the other content in the game minus ritual. I've got my points in breach, bosses, farm trials to make currency etc..
Simulacrum is impossible on both of my 93+ characters. On the summoner I can get to about round 11-12 before at some point it rolls chain and my minions just die. There's nothing I can do. If I move them they aren't attacking and I die (6.5k hp / 5.5k ES). If I let them continue to fight they just get obliterated and the swarm kills me before they res in 4 seconds. Also it seems like every simulacrum has a rare that spawns in that small area they give you that makes all mobs invulnerable. On my monk it's basically just an issue of being 1 shot with 80% evasion and 4k EHP. I can clear the whole screen but for some reason GGG decided to make monsters SO FAST that they can cross the arena and attack before your character can perform 1 swing animation in some cases. It just feels horrific to play. What build is supposed to do this? Is it just aoe screenwide (which apparently goes against their so called "design philosophy") spark stormweaver? and let me guess you just stand in the middle and spam spark? (super fun and creative) Not enjoying it at all. Last edited by ImMobile2010#0431 on Feb 16, 2025, 10:17:38 AM Last bumped on Feb 16, 2025, 11:27:07 AM

Welcome to POE. Even though its advertise as build your own character with countless possibilities, that's only true up until the end end game. If you want to do the top tier end game you need to have specific skills and items; in the end all builds turn into the same 2-3 mega OP ones. And no, you cannot do it outside of those; so get to searching and copy one of those OP builds if you want to do the top content.

" Yes, as spark mage you stand in the middle and just keep left mouse button pressed. However, despite my spark mage being able to clear all other pinnacle bosses on max tier, I still fail at simulacrum tier 0 at wave 12 to 14. Apparently 75k dmg on spark tooltip is still not enough. Well damagewise it would be, but all it takes is a single mob slapping you and stun you for 0.2 seconds to get obliterated by the zerg rush that follows. |

" There's one simple trick that trivializes it, even at +4. Kitoko's Current gloves. Swap them in, kick your feet up, and enjoy. |
