Desecrate tables in specific zones and Souls Wick Raise Spectre
Hi. I've been doing higher level content on a summoner using the Souls Wick jewel. What I imagine few people notice are the desecrate tables in specific zones. The default desecrate table contains only Desecrated Bonestalkers, a very weak melee skeleton that does not spawn anywhere but is a placeholder for zones without monsters, such as hideouts.
Some zones still fall back to the default table although there are monsters that can spawn inside the zone. Some places where that is the case are unique maps Putrid Cloister and Mao Kun, The Menagerie. The two unique maps have monsters spawned by default that can be raised but desecrate does not replenish the number of available corpses. In The Menagerie, beasts and their spawns can be raised but unused corpses disappear after the encounters. Inside the Azurite Mine desecrate can spawn league-specific monsters to delve, incursion and abyss that can be destroyed and used as corpses but not raised as spectres. Corpse targeting is very finicky especially when on the run inside already hectic cities and delve bosses. Surprisingly, vaal outposts and the vaal architect boss have incursion specific monsters that can be raised, namely chaos spitters but I assume this might be an unreported bug because as a rule of thumb league-specific monsters cannot be raised. My issue is that not only does Souls Wick not feel impactful enough to make a difference when using zombies and skeletons but I am also limited to the default desecrate table when doing difficult and hard to encounter content. Having to take apart my links just to have mediocre six-link skeletons skills feels like being punished for taking this flavorful jewel. I really am questioning using this unique that should be build enabling over just using regular spectres with specialized links. Zones such as Elder Guardian Arenas, Absence of Value and Meaning and some unique maps all have randomly generated desecrate tables to shake up and enable corpse using builds. Please streamline this for every zone expect hideouts so that this jewel and build can be more consistent and perform the bare minimum. Last bumped on Sep 20, 2019, 8:24:36 AM
