FLESH ZOMBIES 3.25 | Wrecker's Stress-Free Build(s) & Filters | 1-Button, HC SSF, Pure Item Freedom

So, first of all, I'd like to say thanks for taking the time to write the guide.
I was a bit skeptical about some things when I started, but I'd like to say your skill tree is overall pretty good. There are certain mechanics I don't like to use personally so I replaced them. I am doing T13-14 maps atm and things are going pretty well. Thought I would mention it for those who like to experiment:


1) Moved zombies to a hungry loop setup to save gem slots
using feeding frenzy, meat shield, summon phantasm, minion life
So zombies get both feeding frenzy and meat shield effects (you lose the aggressive / defensive status) but they still "taunt" enemies. Phantasm are summoned and die to heal other minions as intended (great idea btw!)

2) 6L Carrion golem of scavenging as main dps
using Golem, chance to poison, added chaos damage, energy leech, minion damage, culling strike
You can use the hordes version for an extra two golems, but the scavenging version can heal itself through regen and corpse consumption. The spikes skill damage is REALLY nice; I took two extra tree nodes and added a primordial might for increased cooldown recovery. Currently using a clayshaper for extra damage (phys converted to chaos) and an extra golem. You can get "golem commander" anointed to your amulet after you get something decent with +1 all skill level, to get the extra golem and save some skill points.

3) Removed CWDT setup, arctic armor and petrified blood.
So, this is mostly personal; that leech node (10% instant leech) is actually pretty good and seems sufficient so far. Using petrified blood means that your HP won't regen on its own past low health without using a flask, and i am lazy so I just removed it. I also removed arctic armor because I am never stationary as a summoner and placement is always important imo. I replaced both with determination (for now) to get a bit of physical damage reduction. I replaced enduring cry with convocation.

Now, as a summoner, the main issue is staying alive long enough for your minions to kill things. The reasoning behind arctic armor and petrified blood is to mitigate / delay damage enough to avoid 1 hit death. There is another choice however: Ward.
With the rework, equipment can now get really high armor / evasion ratings.

My idea is this:
6L body piece with either high armor or armor/evasion base.
Use Ynda's Stand unique belt to convert half to Ward.
Use Runic gloves / boots / helmet to get more ward, as well as "% faster restoration of ward".
You should be able to get around 3~4k ward and 1s restoration fairly easily.
Get resistances and flat life on each piece; you can get +1 level of all gems / minion gems on amulet, helmet, etc. An a alternative to enduring cry is using the flask "elixir of the unbroken circle"; that way you don't have to stop your movement, it also restores your ward and life if you reuse it before the charges go away.

You can use a 4L for your spectres and an animate guardian (can use minion life / elemental army / meat shield, whatever you like). You can also add an enlighten and eldritch currency to all your equipment to get more minion stats or mana reservation reduction.

I haven't finished upgrading everything, but it's been really enjoyable so far.
Just some options for people who don't like zombie AI :D

What specters are everyone using other than the Silverback from act 2?

Easy to get, both act 7 The Ashen Fields:
Carnage Chieftain (Frenzy Charges - like the Silverbacks)
Host Chieftain (Power Charge)


Thank you!

Any recommendations for anoints to get? for damage.
and where should i path on the tree for more damage.
I got most of what i want from the tree so far but no clue where to path next.

im on yellow maps and red maps are going to be slow as minions are dying and some stuff are relay slow to kill.
Some of that ill fix with getting better gear. but im a little behind on that as
i started with a melee build which i hated and are now working on getting this of the ground :D

Thank you very much! I am old AND dense :)

Got one general question - how do these do in mines? I only play minion builds when I come back to PoE once a year or so, haven't done much mines, so curious.

Thanks again!
I don't know if I'm blind, or just dumb, but is there a list of skills and links for the righteous bond build? I didn't see anything in the poeplanner link, and (more than likely) missed seeing them in a reply post. Sorry if it's staring me in the face and I just can't see it.
