Tukohama specre build is strong enough to do all content so I would rather go full summoner then mix it with HoP and DomBlow.
IF you are looking for physical spectres you can also try these guys:

although I don't think they will have big impact on the fight especially that your headpiece is perfect for tukohamas/fire golems/solar guards

I can't see your profile and tree so its hard for me to analyze what's going on inside (jewels, nodes ect).

dr0guletz suggestions are on point. At the end of the day it's your build so you can/should play it as you like :)

thnx for reply. iam gonna try that.

iam aming for an 7 ore 8 link spectre helmet. iam chaos spamming this helmet whenever i can:). Tukohama's are the best boss killer's for all i know. Did not find a better physical damage spectre yet.

maybe a taste of hate for basalt flask.

There are much better physical spectres, but i don't know how much help they will be, i would personally try those giant skeletons that you encounter in abyss, those that dissapear and then slash with a black coloured skill. they are physical for sure, and that skill always deals a lot of dmg, considering you have a lot of added physical jewels i think they will do some damage.

But hey , i`m just speculating here ...it's your choice if you wanna try or not.

I don't like using brutality. I'll diversify it a bit by showing a mixed phy/ele dom blow version. My char name: ThinkingOfNameTooHard

So yesterday I went FULL YOLO on Uber Elder. That was very painful but interesting experience. My thoughts if you are interested:

- in general I was obliterated by cold dmg. Instantly slowed and wtf-pwned by spears, not mentioning shaper balls :). I will try to implement Purity of Ice to the setup. In order not to lose too much attack speed I will change gloves to attack speed ones... DMG is ok but survi sucks...

- oh yeah I went full yolo so next time proper shield is definitely needed :)

- spectres and animate guardian - mixed feelings here. Maybe with cold ress aura they will live longer

-pantheon needs to be adjusted

-taste of hate

-and a lots of practice...

With Brutality, you dont have the gain phys to cold damage.
So a "normal" sapphire flask with anti freeze works too.
And it's not very expensive like a taste of hate ;)

With Soul taker, is it better than a scourge to create sentinel ?
How is it possible to calculate the dps of the minions (with flat phys jewel) ?

There is currently no way to calculate minion dmg. Scaling and gem setup was always a trial and error process.
As for the soultaker - for most of the content you don't see much difference in scourge vs soultaker. DMG from minions with proper jewels and tree is high enough to clear everything in both setups (shaper included)
I use it because of the mana reservation I simply cannot run Haste + Purity of Ice. I had to drop the Haste and try to compensate attack speed with something. Soultaker is fast + has nice no mana needed mod. I also switched gloves for more attack speed (using some generic ones for 10c)
I did another try yesterday. 7,2K hp (with shield) + 79% cold ress helps a lot.
Damage is good, minions are generated fast.
My observation for this fight is that most dps (in my case, I dont use any dpsing spectres or totems) comes from Sentinels of Purity generated by HoP. Why ? The answer is simple: 20% vs 10% of generation chance in case of DoMBlow. Based on this observation I think the best way to handle this encounter is to have hard-hitting sentinels of purity (preferably 5). Fight forces you to move alot so you really do not have time to stand and wait for DomBlow to proc.

As for the flask i 100% agree that regular one is enough - no need for taste of hate.
