Hi! Thanks for writing this awesome build. I am currently leveling it but I cant find any information about mapmods in the guide.

Summoners can usually do most map mods but since this build has both phys dealing skellies and elemental dealing spectres, does that mean that both phys AND ele reflect are out the window?

Sorry in advance for the long reply :X
I have been following this build (the mage skelly version) since day one of Harvest
I've had massive trouble with some story bosses, but I didn't have proper gear
Once I got decent to good gear, mapping was fairly easy, even atlas bosses were pretty much a breeze.
But now I'm in endgame and I cannot go 3 maps without dying, I can't even manage to get a whole level done.
I find myself extremely squishy, no matter how much life and armor I manage to squeeze in my gear. The final Conquerors were very hard, the Shaper Guardians are borderline impossible, Harvest bosses took me literally 10 to 15 minutes to kill, and Uber Atziri is absolutely out of my reach (she immediately kills all of my minions and I can't just sit there and re-summon all the spectres, and even then I'd still be missing the AG).
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong compared to how the build is supposed to work, but it feels like I'm missing some core factor without which the whole build cannot work.

Please master Ghazzy, what am I doing wrong, I'm tired of embarassing deaths :(

Due to time restraints I rarely respond on my forum posts but do help out the best I can via my twitter, youtube, twitch and most importantly my Discord community.


I would suggest you make your character profile public as it's currently private so I was unable to check your character prior to this response.
Then join my discord community: www.discord.gg/GhazzyTV tag me there and I'll see what I can do for you :)

BUILD IS NOW UPDATED FOR 3.12

Some added information regarding spectre choices and added a more detailed segment for the use of Redemption Sentries that I would personally use myself.
(No the nerf wasn't that extensive and they should be nerfed more imo).


Also added better description of the support gems utilized by the spectres.

On Paper (path of building) the Redemption Sentries might look good...

But when actually playing them they are pretty bad. I tried them and while it is technically possible to kill stuff, Slave Drivers are way better with reasonable levels of gear for what you can get in Heist league.

I've also been watching poe.ninja and EVERY summoner has gems socketed for Slave Drivers... I wasn't able to find anyone playing RS.

Most people I've talked to has had no issues using the RS, the other choice would be slave drivers.

Could you provide me with your PoB and I'll check it after todays stream. It's important that I receive this feedback so that I can verify the efficiency for all types of budgets for the community!
