support!

did anyone tested sunblast belt and trap passives? trap damage node and expeditious munitions could give BM's another 27% incresed damage for the price of just 2 points

thats what I said. The question is how he gets 3 as he describes in his powerleveling guide when he doesn't mention any item that would grant an additional spectre

Check out the passive tree:

Hey Sam

- I'm running this build now, lv73 all gems lv16-17. Quick questions

1) What was the biggest factor in keeping your Spectres alive at Piety?
I'm having a bit of trouble keeping them up, it's almost of 50/50 if they stay alive. I enfeeble her, try to get all her blue portals down with bear trap + my minions but if she gets a blue up, most of the time I'll lose a Spectre annoyingly.

I run grace, determ, purity & run a Seething Hallowed of Animation, I have a Saffel's also but all of it just doesn't seem to be enough and yes I snapshot with chober chaber & sidhebreathe

2) Why Vulnerability over Elemental Weakness?

Domination feedback:
After I stopped playing nemesis because of fps issues and lag etc that made me nervous decided to give this build a try in domination... It's less fun in domination, these nemesis rares were too awesome but on the other hand in domination this build is even easier to follow.
Leveled to 65 in just 4 days using your leveling tips (investing about 15 chaos for megi etc).

Also in domination you 're able to step into the final build much sooner (2500 life currently) and you re able to try a lot of different things to test the strengths of the build without the fear of death. In just 5 days I managed to get all the core items of the build except the jewellery, divination and the 6link chest. BUT with self found average rarity jewllery and just a tabula rasa for a 6link spectre with rarity I have 120 rarity and 50 quantity.. not bad to get you started.. I just snapshot the minions with tabula and then use a decent armour chest with one blue socket :P...

Needless to say that even with this setup I do piety runs in under 3 mins and also I feel like cheating because it is so easy(no storm callers to crash your pc and kill your minions)...you literally just hit this quicksilver and run until piety!
I hadn't tested the endgame build yet...Currently I just run to piety and enjoy the "yellow-brown" explosions


tl;dr
Leveled to 65 in 4 days, much easier and somewhat more enjoying in domination :D
Thanks tehosiris for the awesome build and the very easy to follow guide

It seems I have the same problem:
- all res maxed,
- Saffell's,
- Necromantic Aegis,
- running with Grace, Determination (total 14k armor), Vitality,
- lvl 17 minion gems (zombies have ~6k hp) including +minion life,

I'm quicksilvering thru all Lunaris (including Kole), Catacombs, 66-68 maps without any problems from both physical and elemental damage but Piety just wrecks my minions with lightning and especially cold form attacks. Even with enfeeble on her, she's able to take down both spectres and 2-3 zombies within one cold form duration.

Don't know if it's just their armor an hp being too low or there's something else I'm missing...

I could not tank cold form attacks until I had higher level gems, try to run away and keep the minions save in that phase. Get the damage in when she is not in her cold phase.

Are you not running Purity of elements? And you do run the BM's with minion resist gem right?

Why do you grab the Clear Mind Node? 16% Chaos Resistance seems nice, but does anything in Lunaris do chaos damage?

@skullder @lolSam
Are u running health potions with instant healing + apply to minions?

I found that using those helped me immensely. I run two of those, plus one non-instant that applies to minions as well. If your minions get low on life you can spam those pots to heal them up.
