[2.6] The Baron Spirits
It's a very good staple aswell... this build lacks All Res. I'm going a new way with 3 different nodes.
Got Sovereignty (with top node) so I can use Purity of Ice, Fire and Lightining Auras, for 80% max res. And level 1 Clarity with bloodmagic to proc Commander of Darkness for extra buff. www.poeurl.com/bbaf Pretty solid so far. Last edited by BobZaninetti#3699 on Mar 15, 2017, 2:44:56 PM

" Levelling this build just to have a brake from my main toon. Need to have some fun with dummies :). Have you ever considered using this Huge damage boost. Or a Mon'tregul's Grasp. Deciding yet... |
|
" I'm using both! The damage is insane due to the added strength on all 3 summons (SRS, Spectre, Zombies). My build is a little different from this one (focused on life and regen, no EB/ZO, although i'm strongly considering switching as I have a lot of trouble sustaining mana for MoM). |

" Nice! Gonna try it as soon as I reach the lvl requirement. |

since your using a shield
why not sub out the wand and use shield charge + faster attacks + fortify(optional) if you want resists out the wazoo grab and aurumvorax (60 all res) instead of a doon you also get the choice of whirling blades if you go for aurumvuorax the baron + srs is also insane with a 6 socket jorrhasts blacksteel, since your auto summoning melee weapons that also scale with str you end up amassing giant armies that can rip entire maps lol, but you miss out on mobility of shield charge and free frenzy charges from victarios + necro aegis Last edited by Doyzord#3208 on Mar 15, 2017, 10:58:11 PM

" I have tried using this and I must agree that your self cast spell skyrockets damage-wise. It's fun and all but I chose to opt-out of that option for these reasons: * To truly shine, needs to swap Curse on Hit + El. weakness for damage focused supports e.g.: controlled destruction + spell echo. Elemental Equilibrium falls out of the equation too. * This causes an indirect fall in DPS of your minions. * You need to be static more time. So, while it does work I'd rather go for a Mon'tre'gul + Shield. Huge zombies are fun to watch. I must say that my final goal is to have enough resists and stats so that I can run a 6L staff with +2 to fire gems. Last edited by Ramonacus#4434 on Mar 16, 2017, 5:32:00 AM

" Uh, that's really a good alternative... I never think of that skill. It's actually a very solid choice and I will definitely try it out. " That actually looks like a fun idea to support the build. A lot of possiblities indeed. Thanks for contributing! |

" I don't use this for self cast, I use it for my spectres. Currently I'm dual wielding Doon and Monty's with Doon being a pseudo 4-link for any spell based spectre, SRS in the baron for the +2 gems, and Zombies in my chest (currently 4-link because i'm poor). It has the added benefit of a large chunk of strength to help getting to some extra zombie breakpoints, or even the elusive 1000 str! Last edited by ieatpillowtags#0242 on Mar 16, 2017, 4:41:04 PM

Just wanted to run a couple questions by you.
1.) Anyway to incorporate spectres into this? 2.) What should I look for in jewels? 3.) Do i go Mon'tregul's over Doons if i reach 1k strength easily? Which is better for overall dps/clear speed? |
|
" Now that's clever! As I already mentioned, I am headed towards a +2 +1 staff but those Iron Will spectres do look good. I guess you would link them with minion damage and minion speed for the extra DPS? |
