Gear & Gems & Flasks

*HELMET*
Spoiler

Our main source of damage is the raise spectre and skeletons, which we placed on a 6-link helmet: Raise Spectre + Vaal Summon Skeletons + Multistrike + Melee Physical Damage + Socketed gems are supported by level x minion damage + Socketed gems are supported by level x hypothermia. (4. for spectre, raise spectre level should be 25 in total.) We'll use Snow Rhex as Spectre. Location: Veritania Map. They are quick, have a high survival ability, are particularly strong in single target damage and do excellent work with Hatred.

*BODY ARMOUR*
Spoiler

There may be 5 or 6 links. We'll use it for our Zombies, which is another source of damage. Raise Zombie + Hypothermia + Melee Physical Damage + Ruthless + Level 4 Empower. (if you have an armor with 6 links, add Meat Shield.) Key features that should be in our Body Armour: Life and Armour (it's very important) > Elemental and chaos resistance.

*WEAPON*
Spoiler

Convoking Wand: Desecrate(lvl>1) + Flesh Offering + Tempest Shield. Key features that should be in our Wand:+1 to level of all spell skill gems, minions deal x% increased damage, trigger a socketed spell when you use a skill.

*BOOTS*
Spoiler
4-link boots: Summon stone golem + Animate Guardian + Feeding frenzy + Elemental army.
Key features that should be in our Boots: Movement speed should be at least 30% > Armour > Elemental resistance > x% increased life regenaration rate.

Animate Guardian Equipment: A helmet with chaos resist and high life + Boots with elemental resistance and high life + Zahndethus' Cassock body armour for chaos resist and create consecrated ground + Victario's Charity Laminated Kite Shield for giving frenzy charge to minions + Southbound Soldier Gloves + Brightbeak War Hammer (the attack speed is very important, the more hits, the more chance to generate frenzy charge)

*GLOVES*
Spoiler

4 link: Summon Skitterbots + Enlighten + Bonechill + Vitality

*SHIELD*
Spoiler
A shield containing everything necessary for our build.
Hatred + Flame dash + Generosity

When choosing jewels you should opt for life and minion elemental resist.

*FLASKS*
Spoiler

Ascendancy & Pantheon & PoB
Spoiler
1. Mindless Aggression 2. Unnatural Strength 3. Bone barrier. 4.Commander of darkness

Pantheon > Lunaris and Shakari

PoB > https://pastebin.com/nH8b4MzF

Bandits > Kill All

Play Style
Spoiler
We need to stay as far away from the fight as possible while we clear the maps. Let the minions do their job. We have to act constantly to avoid damage and use our flasks in a timely manner to mitigate the impact of the damage we are receiving. We're gonna keep our skeletons fresh. Remember, your most important task as a player is to survive!


Enjoy:)

glad you had fun:)

of course, frostbite can be enclosed in a wand, but manually assigning it to the r key is more practical and quick for use on different enemies
Dude, read your own guide. U want to place tempest shield in the wand. What are you talking about frostbite.

this is what i want to tell: in this build, only desecrate and flesh offering are required for triggering. The only reason I put tempest shield in the wand is because there is an empty socket there:)
