Hey Ghazzy,

Thanks for the awesome guide/video. Im currently wanting to roll my 2nd character that I want to push into late game and I'm pretty much set on this build.

I was just wondering, how far into maps can this go and have they fixed that bug that prevents uber being doable?

Thanks mate.


My pleasure bro! Glad you liked it. :)
Uber is "doable" but tons of RNG is involved in the trio-fight even if you execute it perfectly, so I personally would advice to do another build if you plan on running Uber. However, the build can handle all other end game content.


Ah okay, good to know. I haven't even attempted atziri on my first character and don't have the currency for uber so probably doesn't matter anyway. Was just trying to plan for the future :)

Never tried a summoner so going to give it a go! Thanks again.
@Coatesy my pleasure brop, glad you like it all! :)

Mind giving some tips for my summoner hybrid build? Here's the link.


Hey,

I wouldn't use any projectile modifying support gems for the Flame Sentinels. I'm personally not a big fan of using inc aoe with blasphemy curses it just increases the reservation. if you get "leadership" it ll grant it enough AoE to cover most things already.

Honestly, different ways of playing the build is depending on how you would prefer to play it. I can give you my 2 cents of optimizing in my personal preference but if you prefer that approach you shouldn't change it tbh :)


Yeah, I didn't really consider that increased AoE would increase the cost - that makes sense though, heh. I just want my enfeeble to hit everything on my screen - I do pick up leadership though.

I was only planning on running the first 4 links with spectres > fire pen, ele focus, spell echoe, minion damage. The 6th link would be up in the air since I am not sure i will get one, but LMP was just an option I was looking at. Ele destruction will probably be the biggest dps boost.

Quick question though - do you find your spectres dying a lot? And if so, what do you do during a map run? Do you have to leave and go summon them again in a different zone?

Thanks for the advice.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

Fair enough :)

Nope, at merciless difficulty spectres they barely die. I make sure to keep a keen eye on the ground effects and enemies and my spectres position to be able to quickly convocate them out of harms way when ever needed.

Hi ghazzy, a little question.

Do you have any idea what are the base resists of the minions you use, and how best to max it? Right now my zombies are dying a lot to perandus mobs, and the flame sentinels take a ton of damage, I suspect it's the elemental damage from the mobs that are killing my minions.

Here is my set up, CarrionKrobelus is the name. I'm using Purity of fire and discipline only, and switching to to a +2 minion helm with life and lightning resist at lvl 69

Heya!

Flame Sentinels got no other res but fire res, Stygian Revenants got a bit of lightning res. To avoid reflect kills with the build we are using Purity of Fire.

Perandus mobs can sometimes be extremely horrible at least up until you get merciless minions in which case they start to rape the perandus bitches before they get the chance to overrun you.
Zombies will always have a tough time surviving vs ele dmg if you feel it to be worth it, you could link them with "Minion & Totem Resist" support gem.

Your account setting is set to private so i am unable to look at your character link.


Hope it helped! :)

Amulet should have much higher life gain, the ruby ring should be an unset and have much higher life, besides those things i think you have very very good gearing for your character :)

I'm curious as to why you have both Purity of Fire AND Elements in your gems as you can't reserv everything, I would strongly recommend Purity of Fire and skip the Elements.

When it comes to jewels you should have a higher priority to Minion Damage over Minion Life, now, obviously you'd want both but Minion Damage is much better than Minion Life on your jewels. It is one of very few ways for us to increase our minions damage effeciency!


Since you have EB/ZO/MoM there is no need for a mana flask, change it out for some utility or a third life flask!


Hope my feedback helped! :)

Thanks for your feedback ghazzy, really appreciate it.

The reason why I have the amulet and ruby ring there is mostly budget issues for now, both were self found and works pretty well. I'm definitely going to replace the Jade amulet, but I need to buy my jewels first, but the ruby ring seems fine. I can't think of another skill I would need a slot for. Maybe I'll replace the ruby with another ring if my budget allows.

That is that same reason I have Purity of elements in the gems. There's really nothing I need, and I supposed I could just keep it there to level, and use it when I get thrown in ele weakness maps.

For the jewels, i'm barely getting started, will keep in mind your advice.

And I guess I forgot about the mana flask, I only added EB and Mom in the past 2 points. ZO seems unnecessary for now, I have no problem with ES running out, probably because my life is still pretty low at 3.3k. Have a ton of life nodes to pick up. Also, life regen is pretty handy in lab. I'll grab ZO when I feel I need it.

Cheers ghazzy :)

Edit: I need to correct myself, I have thought about grabbing another unset ring, and using rejuvenation totem to help regen life for my minions. However, the AoE of the totem effect seems too small, looking at the way my totems spread themselves, and they're not dying as much recently. I could use convocation and reju totem to heal my zombies pretty well, but it doesn't seem necessary yet. Again, I will replace stuff when I feel I need to.

Absolutely my pleasure, feel free to pop by the livestream for more assistance or just to enjoy some rock n metal stream! ;)

You could use Spell Totem + Skeletons to act as decoys, it usually helps a lot and/or add Vaal Haste/Vaal Lightning Trap with Increased Duration etc etc there are hundreds of different utility approaches for this build!
