Spectres is like 99% of your damage and with only Vanguard you will have big problem in the ad phase. Arc is also much better than Ball Lightning as BL is very slow while you must switch target very quick at times.

Beside that, more practice and it should be easier.
I just realized I recorded my uber elder kill so here's the video in case anyone wants to see what it looks like with TVs/flame golems :)

You REALLY need an anti freeze flask or the shield Vix Lunaris "cannot be frozen".

Good job tho! Thanks for the share.

im in the same lvl of game, butt cant kill uber elder i will try with your flask combination

p.s

if you can check my build and give me some advice about it
it will be great.
Can't see your character.

TBH It took me like 15 attempts before I killed it and I got pretty lucky at the end :p
Finally done with uber elder. Killed him on the 2nd set of fragments, 2nd try. Unfortunately, I may have been able to kill him on the first set even without knowing the fight well enough and ball mangement being terrible. I switched to a Kaom's Roots, Blood of the Karui flask and sacrificed a spectre on the following run. I made a mistake trying to re-colour a corrupt claw and so lol I didn't even have fortify for the fight.




Some thoughts and tips

- Watch this video for an indepth look at the fight - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4JLfsHLFaE
- I found Shaper the most difficult and degen the next. Elder was more of an obstacle that directed where you had to be on the map. The beam does hefty damage so I kept my movement close to him the 2nd time around until he went invulnerable during his phase. Just being able to see and aware of what Shaper was doing kept me from being killed.
- Your spectres will die if you are not convocating enough. Golems are weaker and died several times during the fight and needed to be re-summoned.
- Make sure you are using the Brine King and Tukohama Pantheon.
- Ball management was key and keeping out of them out of the centre of the map really helped.
- Having freeze and chill immunity on flasks helps, but you have to juggle charges.
- Even with the investment I put on this character, I can't safely say it is an uber elder killer. It is possible deathless (with practice and better understanding of the fight) but I would not be trying to attempt this in HC.

Edit.
- I don't think having golems were that helpful in the end. Just going 4 TV does enough dps with the gear I had on. It's just mitigating the degen, getting more EHP,mana for survivability and more practice for the fight that would help a lot. I might try the fight again on standard with the changes suggested.
- For people who have contacted me in the past, whether through the forum or online while playing, I have put my character public.

Hello!

Using your build and having pretty much fun with it. I achieved more things than my lvl 90 RF Chieftain with my pretty lvl 80 Necro.

https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Mordrigar/characters

Here is my build (KahvedenAdamSummonlamak)

After reaching 90 and having some resist and dexterity nodes on passives, I'll try to change my jewels.

I'm open for any kind of suggestions but here are my questions:

1- Should I continue using GMP - Ball Lightning - Curse on Hit - Flammability?

a) is flammability good choice for 2 TV - 2 SG spectres
b) is curse setup worth it? should I just ignore cursing?

2- I'm using no CWDT setups. Is it good idea to use CWDT - Desecrate (low level) - (Bone) Offering?
a) I'm using bone offering because I want to survive but what about other offerings?

3- Bringer of Rain bans you from using a chest piece/body armor. Is this rule applied to AG? Currently I'm using 2x Dyadus with Icetomb. If I use Bringer of Rain, would I lose Icetomb's effect? Maybe it keeps the visual as player character but I'm not so sure.

4- At my current level, I have 8 zombies with 8000 health each. They mostly die without I'm noticing so I gave up using them (still levelling the gem altough) Should I bother using them? I don't have enough links with my current setup but after a few levels I might get enough dex/resists so I can buy some Unset rings. This will give me some room to use Minion Life + Zombie. Are they worth it?


Thanks for the great build and sorry for semi-noob questions.
Thanks for the awesome build, Natt.

Does anyone have suggestions for gear improvement in std? Build is based off TV spectres and 3 flame golems. I stopped using AG so I would have more defense with CWDT. I'd really like to optimize as much as possible for leveling with occasional boss clearing and get to lvl 95 (currently at 90). My previous RF builds really limited me with defense and I'm seeing the same thing with my current build when fighting T16+ bosses: occasionally one or two deaths before killing them, which is very frustrating for leveling.

Gear:
"

Jewels: Reckless defence and primordials to get +1 golem
Block chance: 66/75 without buffs; 69 with tempest shield; 75/75 with bone offering

Hi Mordrigar. I'm no expert, but see my thoughts bolded below.

I'm open for any kind of suggestions but here are my questions:

1- Should I continue using GMP - Ball Lightning - Curse on Hit - Flammability? I suggest switching to arc instead of ball lightning. It's quicker and only requires one gem slot.

a) is flammability good choice for 2 TV - 2 SG spectres Flammability or ele weakness - whichever you have that has highest -elem weakness
b) is curse setup worth it? should I just ignore cursing? I like it. Downfall of this build imo is the slow response of minions but that could be because i'm using TV

2- I'm using no CWDT setups. Is it good idea to use CWDT - Desecrate (low level) - (Bone) Offering?
a) I'm using bone offering because I want to survive but what about other offerings? Are you dying frequently? The CWDT setup is for defense so if you're clearing so quickly that you don't need it, you're fine. You could use flesh offering for faster clear speed

3- Bringer of Rain bans you from using a chest piece/body armor. Is this rule applied to AG? Currently I'm using 2x Dyadus with Icetomb. If I use Bringer of Rain, would I lose Icetomb's effect? Maybe it keeps the visual as player character but I'm not so sure.

Are they worth it?

I don't even use zombies. They died too quickly and were slow to summon, but that could have been because of my gem setup with them.

Thanks for the great build and sorry for semi-noob questions.

Are zombies or skeletons good for clearing maps? I have a
and I'm thinking of using that for 4 TVs and using the body to summon zombies for clearing. Also, any recommendation for master enchants on that helm? I'm a noob when it comes to master enchants.

Would a 5L zombie be enough to clear maps/trash at a decent pace or 2SG/2TV still the better choice?

Hey that's the build I'm planning to use. How is it other than uber elder? Are the zombies good at clearing maps? Any trouble while doing t16s and end game bosses other than uber elder? Is AG dying? Do you recommend me going the same route?
