Ultimatum and summoners
" Not sure what spectres you are using but swapping to the bone offering is a solid survivability boost. Preferably using the trigger in wand enchant to keep it up 100%. It's also a significant defence boost for you, If you take the block node and 'offerings affect you' ascendancy. You are also missing the Indomitable cluster for your minions, which is huge (usually just take the top 3 nodes). 23% phys reduction + 35% life + some res and bleed dmg reduction -- Looking at your gear quickly, are you actually res capped for mapping?

" are you following a build guide? kay has a good one for spectres. it goes through all the gear you need etc. for this this league the main thing is to take all the minion life/resist nodes on the tree. i didnt do that and went for the damage nodes instead like i always do but minions got a big nerf recently so now those nodes are mandatory having said that ultimatums are very overtuned so even with all the defense nodes your minions will probably still die in high red maps until GGG puts out a patch and tones down ultimatums a bit Last edited by Lyutsifer665#1671 on Apr 28, 2021, 4:29:25 PM

"Chaos Inoculation is not that great for necromancers. Better stick with Life, because it has synergy with Mistress of Sacrifice / Bone Offering (Block / Life on Block / Glancing Blows). For ultimatums, try to get some form of stun immunity, hinder immunity, and maybe chill/freeze immunity. Ultimatum mobs damage is not great, but you take many hits at once, so the risk to get stun locked is quite high. For minions survivability, Dread March passive on cluster jewels is very good, as most ultimatum mobs deal physical damage. Regarding your build, I tried Skin of the Loyal/Aegis Aurora/Memory Vault with spectres few leagues ago, tankiness was good, but minion damage not really. Map clear was ok, but took forever to kill map bosses. Was able to semi-afk Sirus though, but took like 10 minutes to kill him. Since then, spectres got nerfed 3-4 times. Kay's guide is much better.

"Can you show us some videos? They are easy mode with a single "Renewal" passive and Victario's Charity shield? Last edited by 6_din_49#4066 on Apr 28, 2021, 5:29:28 PM

" Dual cluster isn't really good unless you're going high budget CI version. Even last league with harvest I never needed to switch to dual cluster setup. My current large cluster needs to be replaced of course. Victario's is the single best offensive/defensive option before you craft a 75ex harvest shield. I honestly have no idea how to record a gameplay video and post it. " Well that makes sense. Ultimatums should be challenging at first, eventually it all gets destroyed. I'll try and make a video if you make your character public. :P Also I never claimed to be immortal but I still smash T16 ultimatums. Building for (mostly) survivability in softcore is the wrong approach imo but to each their own. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/988f3369-4b68-4eb9-bc0e-edfce4c3c950 Last edited by Moridin79#6328 on Apr 28, 2021, 5:53:58 PM

" [Removed by Support] Buy me a new PC that gives more than 10fps during Ultimatums, I'll give you all the videos you want. Last edited by Al_GGG#0000 on Apr 28, 2021, 8:31:40 PM
