The only thing changed about zombies in the last patch was that their tooltip HP display was fixed to show the correct amount they had. It did not nerf anything about them, though many will feel that since their HP appears to have taken a big cut (in reality, it didn't) they are less effective (obviously not true).

I see, Thank you for clarifying

I dont mean any ridicolously hard mods, just the maps with "easy" mods. Can you do crema boss, shrine piety and shipyard?

Hi Rathik2.

In your first post, you wrote in part about weapon:

Weapon stats.
This is where it gets tricky, you want defensive stats on a weapon.
A godly one would have (if you have one I want to buy it):

Affixes
Base max mana
+1 all gems
Spell damage + mana

Suffixes
Triple res
or fast cast, dual res
or fast cast, intellect, res
mana regen is also good but not really needed.

I believe you are wrong about spell damage mod. It doesn't affect any spells we cast (raise zombies/spectre, totem, curses, auras), just Arc, which is used as utility.
Maybe you meant cast speed? If so, I'd really apreciate changing original post, it's confusing.

In my opinion, best mods on weapons are:
cast speed
mana
intelligence

Weapon attacks per second, physical damage and crit chance are useless, so you might as well get dagger, 1H sword/mace/axe, wand or sceptre, as long as it has good mods.

BTW a quick question: do minions deal critical strikes? Does global crit chance affect it?

Nah, I am not changing my original post, I didn't meant to say cast speed, I meant to say Spell damage + mana. It is not confusing at all.

If you read my original post you will see that I said "weapon", not wand or scepter or dagger because you CAN use any 1 hander with good mods.
That is exactly the reason I didn't specify a weapon type.

I said many times on this topic, DPS mods are not useful.
I also said that Arc is used as utility spell, not for damage.


You should read and learn more about affixes.

For your quick question.
I don't know if they deal critical strikes.

The raise zombie gem doesn't have a base critical strike chance so the critical strike mod has nothing to affect.
Also if a mod doesn't say "to minions" then it doesn't affect minions.

Does the explosion of Mon'tregul's Zombie ignore IIR/IIQ..? I recently use that and notice my unique drop rate dissipated..

Not sure if it's just RNG...

I have no way to test this. I dont even know if culling strike works with it.
I didnt see any post from devs about this.

You do not need this weapon for this build.
Use a rare weapon.
