3.4 Holy Shepherd-Dominating Blow+HoP-Shaper&Uber Atziri down (Videos)

Hey all just wanted to share my progress here. I've tried to take elements that I enjoy from each of your builds and incorporate them into a hybrid build. Ive stuck with dual scourge but have added in a lot of what Ofnir_ has done with his build. Would definitely like your feedback.

I'll be changing the purity setup... apparently bleed support doesen't work with minions.. fml...

Running two Spectre's but unfortunately right now having trouble desecrating Host Chieftain so im stuck to using 2x Carnage Chieftans.

Also using dual curse setup with WM in ring, debating losing this in place of a vulnerability setup. 6230 life, and 8.3 attacks per second buffed.

I wouldn't say my tree is completely optimized yet, again open to suggestions. Thanks!

Regret 2 points of life on start marauder and finish to take the jewel socket (right of the tree)
Have a better jewel with life and better flat phys.
Take care, because Ofnir is level 100, so we have 10 points less in the tree.

I have a same sidhebreath with add curse in standard :(
(to try with my tombist with vulne on hit and enfeeble)

Yep, I found that out the hard way too! 😆



However Faster Attacks DOES work with minion skills! I highly recommend getting similar gloves. I paid 9c for mine (+4c for life craft). The dream is to corrupt them for +1 gems.

Question about spectres: How do I get the highest level possible Carnage Chieftain and Host Chieftain? (I'm new to Spectres.) Spectre level is capped by the level of the area you raised them in, right? And they can only be raised in Act 7 or in Maps, right? Assuming I have a lvl 20 desecrate and a lvl 20 Raise Spectre gem, how do I get level 100 Chieftains?

Supports attack skills. Cannot support minion skills.

@titides lol thanks, yes apparently I read what I think it should say :)

@heywood sorry to see that, those are nice gloves tho, would be cooler with bleed lol...

But yes to your question about spectres, raise them in highest level map or mine available to you from what I understand. Not sure about lvl 100, I've just taken some time at beginning of high lvl map to desecrate.

I see a important thing that is possible to resolve.

In the ascendance of guardian, we take Unwareing_Crusade

Minions Intimidate Enemies for 4 seconds on Hit

100% increased Minion Accuracy Rating

So take tombfist with a murderous jewels is not a good idea :)
And use a searching eye jewel for maim and can change maim in my 6L.
Or change tombfist by other gloves if I have a body with maim.

The point 2 is the %age of chance to hit of minions.

We have some points of accuracy in the tree, but is by %, not flat.
We take RT on the tree but it just works for DomBlow.
In fact, our Sentinels have a minimum chance to hit.
And you loose dps like a build using a melee attacks without RT and accuracy.
(simply that if a minion hit 50% of time, we loose 50% of dps)

May be the best gloves for our build is "Command of the pit"

With 1000 flat of accuracy and our x% added, we can have 95% chance to hit.

And we can have add 1 or 2 ghastly jewels for more dps/life :)

Do you agree with this reflexion ?

NB : in my build, I can drop gloves without problem, so I can try it :)

Because of restrictions, it cannot be supported by Chance to Bleed or Minion Damage supports. Being forced to use Melee Splash or Ancestral Call and not being able to use either of these supports is pretty painful. You still have to be able to kill monsters in maps after all.

Minion damage support doesnt' work with Dominating Blow ? really ?

Edit : OK, doesnt' with the melee attack, but works for our minions (like I think)

On test :)

And I will have 15 ghaslty jewels if I buy a gloves with 2 sockets :)
That's insane !

With empower3, I can create spectre level 100 (with desecrate lvl 100 too).
Do you know why the specter die a lot ?

max level spectre you can get is 84. spectre level is based on the current zone you are in. So you summon them in a 84 area such as shaper, last room in oba's cursed trove, abyssal depths, master mission such as haku, tora den, or vagan arena. An easy way to get level 83 minions is to go to depth 270+ delve

New upgrade (a little expensive ^^) :-)
