Witch - Stress-Free PoE w/ BONE ZOMBIES! Relax & SSF League Start-End w/ “Any” Items & 1-Button

@Wrecker_of_Days Hiya: Just loving the build! I'm thru the story now and starting to get into mapping. A couple of questions? In your initial writeup you have minion life support in with raise spectres. My spectres never seem to die so I'm wondering: Does this apply to all minions or just the spectres. You also recommend 3 link 1 socket setup on this same armour piece but your profile shows a helmet with all 4 sockets linked. Does this make any difference? Thanks again for your support on this one!

I have slow reactions and an old computer and I generally can't target things for shit in the game so I love the gameplay ... I am using a cold iron point ezomyte dagger which gives +3 to all physical gems, seems to work well with all those wonderful phys gems !!!! Just a thought. That's great to hear, RicardoilMagnifico! I'm glad the build is working well for you and that you're enjoying it :). It's hard having a slower system and love games that throw endless amounts of enemies at you. I'm glad you've found something that works so well for you. And nice work raising the gem levels of your minions. That's their biggest investment you can give them.

" xtommy21 wrote: Spoiler Which support would you suggest to replace Skeletons with? Based on a quick look, I would guess Stun as the least supportive among them but I am not the one who wrote a great guide, so I will choose the one you say. One more question: I used Queen's Decree for a while but it was low level, so I couldn't get more than 4-link in it. I think that could be a great weapon for this build (+damage, +life, +skeleton duration, +zombie), however that would mean losing the block chance from the shield and some passive skill build on block chance. Would you suggest using Queen's decree if one would want to add a bit more damage for the cost of lost defence? The options are quite extensive, xtommy21. Let's see, off the top of my head, I'd probably go, Zombies - Skeletons - Meat Shield - Melee Phys. - Multi. Strike - Brutality. In terms of your sword, Block chance is a big part of this build's survivability. I don't suggest ditching it. But the pros and cons of implementing unique items are yours to make :). I don't think defence is ever worth sacrificing. But I'm not you. Good luck ;).

Hey, cmacq. Minion Life is just to ensure survivability for my support spectres. I hate micro-managing dead spectres. Make whatever changes you like. Just make sure they can survive the content you want. (Every spectre has a different base life.) In regards to the linking, in the guide, I state that Pride can be linked without consequence, but Skitterbots cannot. So no matter where you place either of those skills, make sure Skitterbots isn't linked. Hopefully, that makes sense. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast Annnnnd Wrecker of Days' One-Stop-Shop: Stress-Free Builds (& Filters): 1-Button, HC SSF, Item Freedom: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3467875	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days on Nov 13, 2021, 3:22:52 PM Quote this Post

I guess I'm not running high enough level maps for them to die so we'll have to see as I progress. It will give me more time to gather chromatic orbs. I have them in a helm that is really good but not so easy to roll 2 red and 2 blue sockets.	Posted by cmacq on Nov 13, 2021, 3:41:12 PM Quote this Post
So little update: A bit embarrassed but once I hit tier 9 or so maps the one shots started. This game is very cruel that way, you look at a mob wrong and you're dead. Solution for me? I swapped out Pride for Determination. The DPS is still solid and my survivability has gone way up. See how long that holds true but I'm finding things a bit squishy as I progress. Oh and I should mention my frame rate went up significantly as well. Pride is an FPS buster for my setup especially in conjunction with Void Sphere.

If you've made any changes to the build, maybe revert back to what the guide has suggested. Sometimes what seems like a small change, is a massive change. If you haven't made any changes, it could be gear-related. And that's just something to tolerate until the drops come. It could also just be a bad case of getting some pretty bad combos of map mods. Sometimes, if I only run 3 or 4 maps in my game session, and I get bad combos of map mods, I'll leave the session feeling like my build sucks. But, if I was to have played 10 maps, I would have realized it was just bad luck of map mods. Also, that's really good info to know. I had no clue Pride was a memory hog! That's really interesting. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast Annnnnd Wrecker of Days' One-Stop-Shop: Stress-Free Builds (& Filters): 1-Button, HC SSF, Item Freedom: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3467875	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days on Nov 15, 2021, 4:11:01 PM Quote this Post
