(+42% Life and more) - The Indomitable Army node aswell as the 3 Minion Life/Resistances/Phys Dmg Reduction nodes nearby. (+47% Life and more) - The Minion Life nodes near Death Attunement node. (+34% and more) So then you can use a juicy 4th gem for your zombies. Those will make your zombie tank pretty against any normal/magic/most rare monster. Bosses might still kill or hit hard some of them, but they'll mostly survive everything during story. I personally use while leveling : Raise Zombie - Minion Damage - Melee Phys - Minion Speed (then swap to Multistrike at lvl 38). More then 4L, Feeding Frenzy/Deathmark - Brutality/Impale (If Dread Banner)/Empower lvl 3 (If lucky drop). Pretty much the same for my Skeleton links except that I drop Brutality/Empower/Impale for Melee Splash, cause Skeleton doesn't have great AoE, the zombie's slam. I usually don't keep SRS for too long in early league (up to lvl 10), so I don't really know what's the optimal setup for them, but it looks pretty decent to me. Thanks for the tips. I'm using this setup now and it's working pretty well. I just grabbed the sacrifice wheel and I'm headed towards death attunement now. I might just grab the annoitment(if its a cheap one) for indomitable army since that isn't part of my original tree and it's 2 points out of my way - unless you think it's worth grabbing the 2 life nodes in the wheel as well? edit: The annoitment for ravenous horde is like 30c! I'll get that one later! Mess with the best, die like the rest. Last edited by Edzilla#0339 on Apr 10, 2020, 12:40:24 PM	Posted by Edzilla#0339 on Apr 10, 2020, 12:38:33 PM Quote this Post
Dang, I picked up the base for my weapon for 1 ex. 2 ex and a scour later and I’m ready to start socketing as soon as Hillock moves to Transportation...I very nearly was stupid and fossil rolled for quality :/. It almost makes up for the wasted currency needlessly rolling a staff.	Posted by Aldonés#1294 on Apr 10, 2020, 12:39:23 PM Quote this Post

I'll get that one later! Well at the start of league I grab them early, then I respect them for more damage, but Delirium seems to hit pretty hard sometime, so I personally kept them. But, I guess you'll have to test if your zombies feels OK without them. I was OK up to yellow maps, but in red maps I had to invest more into Minion Life/Resistance/Damage reduction/etc. (With Femurs. With the crafted weapon it's running fine without too much investment in it)	Posted by bigtoaster64#0429 on Apr 10, 2020, 5:59:15 PM Quote this Post

Maybe I'll just grab the whole wheel for now, just to be safe. Mess with the best, die like the rest.	Posted by Edzilla#0339 on Apr 10, 2020, 6:41:40 PM Quote this Post

Yup you just have to turn an aura off. This was really annoying for me, as I played this build for my league started and my zombies would die pretty often. I suggest getting some ghastley eye jewels that give your zombies %hp Regen and leech if you have a socket free here or there, or are using a stygian. As for your own survivability, well we lost spirit offering so you're a lot less tanky. Baron with the minimum strength for your zombies to leech life for you is a big help, along with an animate guardian that has fortify from kingmaker and a rare chest with blind on it. Additionally a specter that casts enfeeble is useful Last edited by neoseagull#7692 on Apr 11, 2020, 10:37:43 PM	Posted by neoseagull#7692 on Apr 11, 2020, 8:27:08 PM Quote this Post
^^ thank you so much and also do we need this Note!: The aura priority of the build is the following: Pride > Aspect of the Avian > Generosity - Dreadbanner > Flesh & Stone - maim > Purity of elements. You can push Purity of elements up if you're lacking resistances instead of aspect / flesh and stone. I thought we got aspect of the avian on our ring do i need to get the gem or what? im so confused lol	Posted by 4pointt0#3277 on Apr 11, 2020, 9:32:09 PM Quote this Post

You'll notice after you're quip your ring/whatever you have aspect crafted on that you get a new skill you can use. Cast that skill and it will reserve Mana and be active Last edited by neoseagull#7692 on Apr 11, 2020, 10:40:35 PM	Posted by neoseagull#7692 on Apr 11, 2020, 10:39:27 PM Quote this Post
