help obtaining pale seraphim corpse
|
I am playing SSF and thus won't be accessing any other player's spectre bank, but I have been exceptionally unlucky in trying to resurrect a Pale Seraphim corpse, they dissapear so quickly and the maps are otherwise just cluttered with other corpses. Corpse targeting (at least on PC platform) is just so wonky, even if I know there is a Pale Ser somewhere, I never find its corpse in time, and frequently it is just hard to see if there even IS one there since the screen is really cluttered (SRS and skellies). So far I have been trying low-level maps with beyond scarabs, but I do not have an infinite supply of the latter.

How quickly are the disappearing? I don't think i've found this one before, but the only one i've had trouble with them disappearing quickly are the Harvest ones. Is this also a problem with beyond corpses?
Normally I would say go very slow and methodical, but this might not be an option because you need to clear big packs to get the beyond spawns right? Does map level have any effect on the spawn chance? What about beyond monster type? Is it from one of the three groups that you can influence on your atlas passives? I'm assuming that it is from the pale faction and "Pale carrion" notable will increase the chance of the spawn. Other than that just adding more quant to the maps I would think. Regarding raising the corpse, I would assume this is part of the problem, that you are needing a lot of quant, so the corpses are all on top of each other? There is a bit of an art to it I think. When you know it is in there and can see any part of it I believe the bit where the cursor needs to be is near the feet, or bottom end of the corpse. I don't know there is much more to it than that, other than making sure you are not consuming any of the corpses. You might need to talk with someone who has experience getting this specific one. Maybe someone in the beast sharing channel would have got it before, or someone like Ghazzy who does a lot of beasts and I think also plays SSF. Spectre stuff is pretty niche, but there are people who play it all the time and know a lot about it. Last edited by Belegur85#5784 on Sep 2, 2025, 11:04:40 AM

" Thanks much. Yes, they seem to disappear about as fast as harvest corpses, but who knows. The problem is the mass of other corpses that just clog out the demon ones - this problem I don't have in harvest, since I can fairly easily find the harvest rare I want (same with the ancient suffering in delve). I'm sure I can get a PS once per map, I just can't target it's corpse. Underrated stats: Basic human decency, small quantum of respect, microportion of compassion

I see. Sounds rough. There must be a way if people get them though. Maybe someone will know.
Maybe you will need to spawn it, notice it, then kite it away from other mobs before you kill it. A lot of work and very hard to do with minions. I like spectres. I think needing to find them is cool, but having the kind of difficulty you are encounter in SSF, and other things like them dying and loosing the single use ones when you change items, or going over maximum, is not fun. Some QOL needed. Last edited by Belegur85#5784 on Sep 2, 2025, 4:37:33 PM

" How I did it: 1. Get rid of minions & Mercenary. An alternative may be to use unique which prevents minions from killing. You may have to link minions differently too. 2. Use a selfdamage skill for killing things (with 'Spiritual Aid' in a low tier map). 3. Get the right type of mobs in the map. AFAIK 1/3 chance without Atlas points. 4. Kill bunches of mobs to get spawns. 5. Once one spawns separate it, lure it to a no-corpse spot, kill it and raise it. Edit: They likely arent as good as the numbers suggest. I tested vs a hostile one and they dont seem to use their skill very often, at least not vs player. No wonder it's lost, it's in the middle of the jungle!

What do they do exactly? Does it apply webs from aspect of the spider?

"Wiki has a useful table: https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Raise_Spectre#Support_spectres for such things. Unfortunately however reality of game is much more complex and for properly comparing spectres one would need to have guesstimates/infos on uptime and how to min-max it. For some of these poedb gives helpful answers maybe but here https://poedb.tw/us/Pale_Seraphim its not a cooldown skill so I cant deduce how often they will use it under which circumstances (etc). No wonder it's lost, it's in the middle of the jungle!

Thanks, had not seen that table.
Looks to be a bit different than aspect of the spider from that PoeDB link. Seems like a pretty good one, can understand why OP wants it on their build. |
