Cimos, i still have my 6L Shav's from a while back. Would i benefit from this build with the Shav's? Also, just wondering what minions do you use besides Skeletons + Zombies?

@Cimos Interesting, you didn't take Minion Instability but Inner Force? I mean MI is just a huge boost virtually for free and IF is rather useless since you can't deal much damage yourself anyway, or do you?

And Elemental Equilibrium? You know that if you attack with multiple elements at once (wrath, hatred), you will lose DPS and massively lose DPS if you attack with all 3. Why did you chose it?

Have you thought about Whispers of Doom? I think it's more valuable to have permanent Vulnerability/Enfeeble + Temporal Chains on all enemies than to get one more aura node.

IMO CI is better for less powerful minions but stacking MF is easy (and you are more survivable with a large es vs less life but that is debatable).

Life is better for stacking 5-6 auras and having uber pets. More damage and tankier minions, but much harder to stack mf since you need life and chaos resist on gear.

Well its not so much about life or CI, more about the gear. If I don't have to stack IIQ/IIR, I could go straight Skullhead/Midnight Bargain/Matua Tupuna/Bones of Ullr/Sidhebreath+rest resistances and life and logically have much better minions.

With the new skills I actually removed IIR, IIQ and Culling Strike from Arc... Not even sure why I still use Arc, guess it's nice to get my minions to focus on some specific mob or totem.
My Zombies and Spectres kill stuff so fast, I feel Culling Strike isn't really necessary, instead I actually put IIR and IIQ (+ Increased AOE) on my Evangelist Spectres, as they often seem to finish stuff off with their large AOE attack.

Cimos21, how do you run 4 auras on mana alone? I can barely run three and have most of the aura nodes...

Arc is imo cmpletely redundant. You don't need to cull things when your zombies can do that and so you get one 4L free for bone and flesh offering + desecrate + duration, which is a huge boost in DPS and defence.

If you want to focus your minions, curses work well and if you really want just one enemy, manually attack him once with any attack and they gangrape him.

I take Frenzy Apes as specters, so there is no risk in them stealing kills from the zombies. Works only in farming areas of course, the apes need Minion Life + Minion Res + Life Leech to survive. But permafrenzy on a big party is so much fun, and the clearspeed is epic. Culling Strike on Zombies is necessary at least in parties where it's mandatory to land as much killing blows as possible. Solo I'd replace it by Faster Attacks.

Have your skill on hotkey (any) then roll mouse over corps you should see the name appear on the top of screen 'Undying Evangelist'. They often cast yellow bubble when anything gets near.

Undying Aristocrate casts sparks.

To be able to select corps go change your setting under option to allow target corp has it always on.
