The part that says "30% increase effect of shock" DOES apply to your Skitterbots! So the shock from skitterbots will cause enemies to take MORE damage. Normally a 20/20 skitterbot shock adds 15% x 1.24 = 18% more damage taken by enemies. With overshock, for a 20/20 skitterbot it's 15% x 1.54 = 23%. So if you want to compare it in Pob, change the shock effect to 23%.
How do you know that shock increase the skitter shocks? Just curious about it.
Press "c" to look at your character, then click on skitterbots, and you will see "shock effectiveness". It's 0% with a 0/0 skitterbot gem, 24% with a 20/20 skitterbot gem, and 54% with 20/20 gem and overshock.

But you're not converting cold damage into anything. Here's how it works in PoB after I import your character (alternately you can mess around with a conversion calculator):
100 Physical Damage
Hatred - 35% Extra Physical to Cold (+35 Cold)
Skill - 75% Physical to Cold (-75 Physical, +75 Cold)
25 Physical Damage, 110 Cold Damage
Shield - 8% Extra Cold to Chaos (+8.8 Chaos)
Triad Grip - 100% Physical To Chaos (-25 Physical, +25 Cold)
110 Cold Damage, 33.8 Chaos Damage
The Triad Grip only converts Physical Damage, not Cold Damage. For that you'd need 100% Cold -> Chaos conversion as well.
That said, if what you say is true that you can do elemental reflect maps (physical reflect maps are obviously doable because you converted it all away) then something different may be happening. Perhaps it's different for monsters and the "skill" conversion takes lower precedence than the gear conversion. In that case it would in fact be 100% Chaos damage because there's no physical left to convert.
So question. Do your Redemption Sentries ever freeze anything? Since Freeze is based on cold damage if they're not freezing anything that'd be a clear indication that there's no cold damage.
If they do, I wonder if you could do a test for me and turn off Hatred aura. Since that's "extra" cold damage that would be your only source of cold damage if Triad Grip is converting all Physical to Chaos.
Ah got yah , my plan from the start was to use the Arena Champions but had just killed the warlord so i went : heck lets just try with redemption sentries.
So i just got home from work. I went into a map with only my spectres. No hatred , not skitters bots nothing. Also removed a abyss jewel that gave cold dmg to minions.
To be able to easier for me to see i removed GMP aswell. And their attacks sometimes does freeze mobs but that could be from the triads tho , since they have 8 % chance to freeze , shock , ignite
Hİ Kayella, I made your pure spectre builds. But I want more dps. So does an update with a jewel socket or higher dps come? I have just 3mil sirus damage. What can we do to make this rise?
First off, thanks for the build & guide, it's great.
I'm using Pure Spectres however I don't use AG because I don't really like it. I've been using Stone Golem - Feeding Frenzy - Elemental Army - Vaal Summon Skeletons.
I'd like to transition from this into something more defensive, preferably CWDT or something similar.
Does anyone have any suggestions please?
Edit:
Follow up question: any suggestions on gloves/helm/boots enchants?
I`m using a Defensive build here, it`s work very well, check my Profile.
I have no issues with any boss, any Tier, rarely I die.
This SHield is helping a alot.

Thanks for the ideas. I'm liking the cursing golem you have there.

Hi!
Would it be worth getting a 5L body armor with +1 spectres mod for 1-2ex instead of a 6L normal one in terms of dps? And if I do that which gem should be dropped out of the six? Currently I am using the league starter build.
Looking for some1 to help me progress through this build. Today get 4rd spectre but bareilly i killed a5 Sirius [2 deaths].
I know about Necklace/Boots but its really all i can do to make it playable ?
With that setup i have even t16 map bosses with gem swap to: Dont do much diffrence.
I will be very grateful for any help and opinions.
Posting Pob for interested: https://pastebin.com/Lbhb0m93
yes, try to get 5th spectre first
try to get 21 gem+wand
you can do the budgets version to go for +1 to all spell wand first.
Thanks man!
But i dont get a moment with Wand,
I should get one with +1 to all minion gems or +1 to all spell gems?
