[3.13] MOM & POP Skeletons - Strong at Bosses & Heists

"
Updated Post #2 with Elegant Hubris guide, as best as can be done for now. I gained 160% Minion Life and 80% Minion Damage from one I just rolled.

I let Maven witness a Shaper kill without realizing what would happen lol. Thought I was in for another easy kill - BIG difference! Still managed it in budget gear, looking forward to clearing off Witnessed Uber Elder and Maven herself.


Just got lucky! Couldn't roll it with divines for past few days, but bought it for 10c!!! I Got 3xAxiom (80% life) and 1x Slum (80% dmg)! :)

I'm about to drop Death Attunement to get the last one (80% dmg) and some life, coz i lost 600 life for it. Is 1 spectre 1 zombie and 1 skelly (i summon 8 anyway) worth it?

after all i went like this:

But im still unsure how important is Death Attunement. My plan for next levels is: last node for Life and chaos res (4%) and then fill my whole large cluster (call to slaughter is my 3rd skill there -pretty lucky) and then either reskill these points from cluster to death attunement, or leave it as is (i prolly won't get lvl 100 anyway).

Altough there is also a +15% cast speed and 8% spell block from Elegant Haubris, these sound juicy too :)

For eq my next point is regen watchers eye. Edit: Just got it lol :D idk what's next. Your endgame gem setup probably and ex slamming helmet and jewelery? :D

Regarding heavy-hitting bosses, you do still have to learn all the fights through practice and dodge what you can! What this build gives you is a lot more forgiveness and second chances. I am not that great at mechanics so believe me when I say you can clear those bosses, too!

Your Elegant Hubris will be noted, TY and grats!

Death Attunement's worth the point but it shouldn't break the build to cut it. You can make it another few levels without sweating too hard right now, anyway.

BTW I just theorycrafted 1 million or more Sdamage per Skelesplosion without any crazy investment, will be updating post #2 soon, so don't waste those Exalts just yet!

So I got a helm with minion damage and minion life, but it also has immolate on it as well. Does Immolate harm the build in any way?

Also really struggling to find these clusters. Hell I cant find a 3 passive 8 to save my life.

Not sure what I was doing wrong but finally got one. Thank you very much!

It shouldn't matter. You'll gain a tiny amount of extra damage from your skellies if they manage to attack before kaboom'ing, and your cast cost for them will go up 20%.

It took me a while to find one... Just keep looking...
They'll be quite expensive (100+ C). I just looked, and there was one at 1.5EX.
Having 9 passive skills on it is not the end of the world. It'll cost you a skill point, but it is not a big deal.

Note that you should replace your 2nd Earendel's... It only burns for 17% where it should be up near 30% for your skellies to pop sooner.
Thank you, I didn't catch that.
A few Harvest tricks to let you safelly improve youre gear:



This is fairly EZ to come across just alt spam your ilvl 82+ hunter amy for +1 int and life
at this point craft the mana on benchcraft then use harvest " reforge item keeping all prefixe; at some point you could get lucky and keep a nice one.

This amy is big damage boost by itself. Maybe its worth shopping for good life roll + 1 intel to begin with





Same trick goes for this one as all we care about are prefixes. Got insanely insanely lucky rerolled cold res once with add/remove cold harvest craft. Btw i play skele mage that's why the helmet is abit different but same apply here

Once you have youre 3 prefixes & 2-3 bad suffixes its safe to roll your way. Don't forget to benchcraft prefixe (if opened) THEN horticraft

Be carefull not to ruin your items and double check youre crafts; ruined some more complexes myself so be vigilent exille!


Of course better complexes options are avaible but keep in mind this craft is very commun that's why it is so good to start


*****


EDIT: From what i've tested & from POB calculation, a well rolled granite flask is far better than tast of hate to mitigate phys



i don't think " alchemist " mod is that nice at all, prob better go for duration / + X charges

What do you think????
