I was wondering how good or bad it would be to drop the shield and go montregul / united in dream just to keep zombies alive no matter what.

what do you think ?

Are we still talking specifically for uber elder? If so, I'm not sure it would be that great, mostly because meat shields aren't really that helpful in the uber elder fight. There's not that much they can block for you.

I'm planning to run this as a starter in Incursion, but given the nature of the league mechanic I'm a little worried that the clear speed might be an issue.

What do you think about running Bisco's Leash for fixing the clear speed? Seems like the belt slot is basically open anyway. We're fairly over resist cap so that shouldn't be an issue, and the skeletons should do well with all the extra movement speed.

I think with Melee Splash the clear speed won't be an issue in incursions. It's at least as fast as some of the builds showcased. But that said, sure, run Leash if you want to. It's a nice item and certainly will speed things up.

What are your thoughts on using Grip of the Council for this build?

It's a "free" 20% more damage for both zombies and skeletons. You would have to change brutality to something else though

And that means it's not free. Plus it gets significantly reduced by ele res. I don't think it's worthwhile.

Have I misunderstood the changes in 3.3, or could you just swap out Summon Skeletons for Vaal Summon Skeletons?
Since it now has both versions in one.

correct, only real difference being the obtainability/price of the lvl 21 gems, the vaal version will probably be much much more expensive.
Yeah, I've already picked up a 20/20 VSS to record a bit of footage with. I don't think it will make a huge difference but it's cool.

Totally gonna run this build in 3.3. Looks really well put together. Something that matters a lot to me is not needing to 6L a unique chest :)

Just wanted to say thanks in advance for the good times!
Hi, you mention From dust is used to summon 3 skeletons, but i can't find it in the PoB link, i only see 3 To Dust and 2 Violent Dead.
