I am really looking forward to this sceptre because I currently run a similar build on Xbox.

Instead of the sceptre I use Dark Pact to kill my skeletons. It's lvl 1 and linked to spell echo, faster casting and chain. It also enables EE with an "add lightning damage to your spells" mod on your gear

With that setup, a profane wand (with additional increased cast speed), flesh offering, sliver flask and 5 Abyss Jewels with "10% increased cast speed when a minion died recently" I can cast DP over 10 times a second.

In 3.3 I will switch the wand for that sceptre and the shield.

I currently use a totem to cast the skellies. With that totem you have to use From Dust because otherwise it will produce Skellies faster than you can kill them. I believe the sceptre plus shield combo will help a lot with that so I can produce and kill more than 5 Skellies a second.

Dark pact is actually a great idea still.

I am trying it out with spell totem (spell totem // chain // dark pact) vs bosses that have multiple phases and dont get 1-shot by vaal skellies.

That's pretty pointless. DP has a cast time of .5 with an additional penalty of 30% because of the totem. That's to slow to make a big difference IMO

It's still great for EE and if you skip the totem you can add a curse on hit setup or blind which is also great.
