GhazzyTV - Beginner's Build: Lich Queen Skeleton Summoner [AWAKENER FARMABLE]
|
Is Empower an option for the sixth gem for the skeletons? In path of building swapping Iron Will out for a lvl 3 Empower shows a pretty significant dps increase. It would also free up a lot of skill sockets for abyss jewels.
Also, what is the purpose of convocation? Thanks for the guide, been having tons of fun with it so far! |

" Hey, Glad you like it bro! Well, Purity of Flesh grants you some chaos res which I find useless in PoE throughout the years I've played it. If you're planing on farming Chayula Breaches, then sure. If not, it's kind of useless which means you'd rather have the extra life, specially if you're going for the Baron (Iron Will) approach which would also mean more damage for your skellies. Golem choice is a matter of taste, I find them dying often enough for me to stop bothering them from time to time, but a Stone Golem is a solid added defensive layer, if you're in hardcore I'd recommend keeping it. The more jewels you can get the better, so get the ones that costs the least ammount of skillpoints once you're done with the core tree! " Absolutely, most minion abilities scales the absolute best with extra lvls, Skellies are no different. Since the guide is a beginners guide I tried to avoid adding Empower in there to not scare of newer players. You should check the PoB link and doublecheck so that Iron Will is worse than the other support gems, cause at some point IW will be moving up from 6th slot to 5th etc etc. Convocation is there for Zombie meatshields which generally dies in the higher tier maps and become more of a shitty nuisance, at that point it's there for your spectres :) Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

trying to keep non montre zombies alive in tier 15+ maps or rippy t13+ maps its a tedious chore with few dividends at the end of the tunnel.
I like that they finally made that scepter viable , bit is rather sad that you kind of need it to get zombies to hp values worth anything. golems are so annoying especially in enclosed maps . their projectiles get stuck on any little obstruction and they stay so far back that you are forces to convo them in every room |

Loving this build so far. Just want to know if it is worth upgrading Brightbeak for The Scourge or is the attack speed from Brightbeak too good to pass up as we can get our skellies out faster?

" Glad you like it bro! Well, Scourge means more damage output, whilst Brightbeak grants better clear speed in general. Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

so im trying this so far so good. though im not entirely sure what the gear should look like yet, i see quite a few people talking about options in posts, I'm using a empower lvl 4 instead of iron will, not sure if its better but it might be?, 701 strength atm. also using the abyss unique belt with added ele to attacks, sword or mace attacks don't give them bonus i assume sadly.. (also have life on jewels so added bonus) im using the grip of the council arcanist gloves atm cause i had them in storage gathering dust but they give 30 str and some nice bonuses to minions worth it? im using astramentis amulet also atm (perfect) to deal with the annoyance of att req's, but i assume i should try to trade it out at some point. rings i'm just aimming for str,life,res. weapon i have a scourge terror claw corrupted with culling strike ;) assuming that culling can apply to minions possibly? i mean i got shield charge in it so if not, shield charge with culling is interesting. i looked into the emperor's mastery jewel but their 20ex and honestly brawn is cheap. considered it cause the int reduced hurts, could have a nicer ES shield and it gives % max life really nice jewel. i'm currently using a tab +1 gems for my chest, though i imagine a rare with life,ES,res +1 skele is what i need yea?
fun fact, i dont care much about challenges. i just play to play.

" Hey, Easiest way to crosscheck the efficiency of support gems are via PoB, though skellies are not updated AFAIK when it comes to their numeric values on DPS. Empower lvl 4 is insanely effective for almost all minion builds tbh. You can then skip the Baron helmet and focus more on your personal survival if you chose not to use Iron Will support gem. Abyssal Jewels: Inc % minion dmg when you've used a minion skill (like Offerings) recently is better than all other mods, even for skellies. Grip of the Council gives your minions extra dmg based of their physical dmg, since we are using spell casters this doesn't benefit them. Culling does not apply to minions, I'd recommend watching the generic summoner mechanic video linked in the guide which will teach you everything you need to know about summoners & their complex mechanics :) Your Curse on Hit setup will cull though! Keep in mind that stacking strength is for the use of Iron Will support, this includes the Baron helmet. If you're not using it there is no need to focus on strength for the build. Well, you need to hit that sweet spot of 9 mage skellies for optimal efficiency, with a +1 Tabula you could spec in to the last minion node (east of witch starter area) for that last one! :) Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub
