Yes it would, you'd lose a powerful wand and shield for a sub par two handed sword and the ES the shield provided which would most likely drop you below the 5k mark not to mention the the 3 auras of ya health would cost to much for you sustain in said horrible sword.
First of all, big thanks for this awesome build! I really like it so far.
I have two questions so far:
- First, after following the build, it seems I have a little problem of ES.
I have a Shav, and only having 5100ES so far.
I know that my gloves have shitty ES, but still, if I change them i will certainly not achieve the 7k ES.
What's the problem there?
- Second, I tried Atziri.
I got rekt once by the Vaal, didn't move on the ball lightning thing, and it litteraly rekted me.
I couldn't pass the trio, a few deaths on it, one of them was left, but all my minions instantly die. Why?
I see you're changing the totem for that fight, and I was wondering if it was why your minions finish the fight with no problem (the one taunting, right?)
the is a nice build so far. im playing a witch, im to the point on the passive tree where i can go left side for + minions and buffs or right side for + to es, mana and auras... what to do first?
would Alpha's Howl be a better hat for the +2 to auras and 8% reduced Mana Reserved, or is the higher ES and +Chaos Resistance needed more from The Vertex mask?
The more auras was used would help your minions survive in higher map.
Also a bonus for your minions if the summoner stay with low life.
＊Flask with
1.Instant Recovery when on Low Life ,-25% increased Amount Recovered
2.Grants (40-60)% of Life Recovery to Minions ＊
It increase Minions Life in a short time. That makes the Spectres not death frequently.
Between the 「Zealot's Oath」 , 「Blood Magic」 + 「Mortal Conviction」,
I think Zealot's Oath will perform better in mapping because egenerating ES against desecrated ground, burning ground and poison good, can slow the bleeding .Also Rejuvenation Totem and Vitality will work on you too , that's easy having over 500 recovery ES per each sec.
「Elemental Equilibrium」+ 「Arc 」is so good for guidance the Minions and -50% Fire & Cold Resistance at the same time.
The concept of this build,
Using 'Midnight Bargain' as weapon→
cannot be used with Chaos Inoculation and Reserves 30% of Life→
pure Hp is not working , have to HP+ES ,
then 1. Survive with 70%HP+ES with few auras or
2. Giving up Hp for more auras
The benefits to minions from staying low life only for the flask (Instant Recovery when on Low Life + Grants (40-60)% of Life Recovery to Minions ).
Mainly let your minions stronger were auras, low life just the result of more auras.
Mostly the minions in high level , they can take one big damage but after that they dead in the second time. The solution is more defence and more dps.
Defence,
'Purity of Elements' , more elements resistance for minions.
'Vitality' , more minions hp regeneration
*Remeber the minions do not share the passive tree, 'Discipline' isn't the main point.
Attack(minions have 4%damage leeched as life , more damage , more recover)
'Haste' , more attack speed
'Hatred' , extra cold damage
*I use 'Elemental Equilibrium'+ 'Arc' for taking out cold resistance and directing the minions at the same time.
That's why I will Giving up Hp for more auras, some auras for the summoner and some for minions. Passive point 'Zealot's Oath' is so close , it's a good way to recover your ES when you're in high ES and Life regenerated.
Gear & Gems & Aurus
I'am sorry for not showing because I'am playing at Taiwan Server,
can't link to here for you guys.
Helmet - 'The Vertex'
Base on +1 to Level of Gems in this Item ,
it means 'The Vertex' equal to +2 Minion LV helmet if you use empower.
It provide lots of ES , Evasion and Chaos Resistance.
The important thing is 50% reduced Mana Cost of Skills ,
your auras lock the manas ,
only 'The Vertex' allow you to use Raise Zombie all the time.
Body armour – Solaris Lorica or Shavronne's Wrappings :
The different between Solaris Lorica and Shavronne's Wrappings is ES,
But I think 5000+ES is enough time for you to escape from the danger.
Atziri video from the below , I use 5L Solaris Lorica only.
- First, after following the build, it seems I have a little problem of ES.
I have a Shav, and only having 5100ES so far.
I know that my gloves have shitty ES, but still, if I change them i will certainly not achieve the 7k ES.
What's the problem there?
Elreon, Loremaster → 5-20% Increased Energy Shield → provide lots of ES
This is the ring that I'am using now. Moonstone Ring as the basic item.
LV 64. + 25 maximum Energy Shield
------------
+ 31 maximum Energy Shield
+ 33 chaos resist
Can have multiple Crafted Mods
+ 18% Energy Shield
+ 17% faster start of Energy Shield Recharge
+ 8 to All Attributes

Vertex mask will be better.
1. higher ES and +Chaos Resistance
2. Helmet(Vertex mask) - Raise Zombie - Empower - Multistrike - Minion Damage
I think zombie's level is more important than +2 auras.
