Looking at your vid adding damage from immortalis + flasks would be insane. Might be enough damage to melt guardians quickly. Have you tried spectral scoundrels? Looks like they are the same but scoundrels has extra lightning damage mod. At least I think that is extra if its conversion then slashed are better. http://poedb.tw/us/mon.php?n=Slashed+Miscreation http://poedb.tw/us/mon.php?n=Spectral+Scoundrel The belt is bad, as I noted before. It takes away a lot of your survivability. Damage should never come at the cost of survivability to the summoner at this stage of the build. Spectral scroundrels scale worse, iirc. Also harder to get. Ign: Leary_AscendedNecro Twitchtv: leary93 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfzgUpVcv6wzrs5TwKZaGJQ	Posted by leary93 on Dec 15, 2016, 11:03:51 AM Quote this Post
Unless you play HC really doesn't matter in my opinion. I like the stat monsters deal no damage when dead =). But of course its also a double edge sword. You don't deal damage when dead either lol. Can you explain how they scale worse? If it's in fact extra lightning damage and they do the same base damage wouldn't that just be extra damage? I tried googling around trying to figure out what exactly lighting damage implicit is. But no cigar. Have no idea if it's extra or conversion. I was hoping you might have some insight as you been playing around with these spectre types.

In SC dying is still a bitch, unless ur not playing to get xp at all, and in breaches, ull basically lose the breach. I dont like the part of not having quicksilvers and phasing either. I dont know if they do, but it feels like they have lower base dmg. They're definetly slower tho, as miscreations have a quick modifier to them. But tbh both are probably viable, the miscreations are just easier to find.

Hmm ok, thanks for the feedback. I feel like these spectre types seem to wander off a lot. Have you noticed that they need to be convocated constantly to remain on target? Especially on boss rooms with adds.

Especially on boss rooms with adds. Not really. Wither is a pretty solid targeter because its a channel, and thus updates aggro constantly. Unless they cant be in melee range anymore ofc, then they will look for other targets. Ill put a video up of them doing atziri soon, as the trio fight really portrays how well they can stick on their target.

I play them since Essence now and I have the feeling they were affected by the blade vortex nerf. They still kill fast but I have the impression they stack less poison. Maybe it's due to crap stuff, dunno. And slashed>>scoundrel. The light damage conversion (I tried them and it's not extra damage, take more time to kill a boss than slashed) is not an advantage (excepted for reflect but who cares for spectres?). Don't know how much conversion % they have (30 or 50 maybe), but it's loss of damage for poison. And poison damage is the main interest of blade vortex for minions. To illustrate, last league, with very good stuff I destroyed minotaur and phoenix very quickly, but chimera and hydra were pain! Very long fight, due to their poison immune.

Bv didnt get nerfed, not dmg wise, nor did the spectres get affected by the cap reduction at all (they ahve a cap of 5). Ye They are good with poison. Anyways, Ive put xoph fight up: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfzgUpVcv6wzrs5TwKZaGJQ As well as updated the links, continuing to update later Ign: Leary_AscendedNecro Twitchtv: leary93 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfzgUpVcv6wzrs5TwKZaGJQ	Posted by leary93 on Dec 16, 2016, 9:32:46 AM Quote this Post

Just a little question, I didn't find any answer but : " Wither (lvl 1) - cwc - Desecrate - spirit offering (this makes you extremely tanky) How that make YOU tanky ? The link is super interesting but that only make my minion tanky, I'm sure I'm missing something.	Posted by Kispren on Dec 21, 2016, 6:06:35 AM Quote this Post
