3.14 KING OF ALL SUMMONERS. Zombies & Skeletons & Spectres on STEROIDS! | League-Start to End-Game

Can someone tell me why everyone I've talked to has said to keep stacking STR beyond 1000?

Using POB, at no point is STR better for zombie damage than Minion Damage. Even swapping out 100 STR for 25% minion damage, the minion damage smokes it out of the water for DPS. And that's just including zombies, because spectres, AG and golems don't benefit from STR. Just keeping STR to 1000ish, my zombie DPS on POB is 570k per without including AG buffs

im new to poe and following the points guide is really confusing because the leveling points do not match the pob points...

Hey bro, nice working there on this build, thanks it.
But i would like to ask you, is the link (pastebin) for the respectives versions( spectres,speed etc...) actually working ? cause there is some of them which i cant see any difference, for example, in the pastebin where u should be using wands, you say to put nodes which gives u attack with maces/sceptres, thanks for it and hope u answer it =) !!

He has an Elegant Hubris socketed which turns those mace/Sceptre nodes into minion damage nodes.

Is it possible to run all the auras with a enlighetn lvl 3? And if it isn't which is the less important aura that i should leave?

We wear a lot of gear that benefits defensively from stacking Str. And a lot of us also have % increased Str stuff. The main purpose of continuing to stack Str passed 1k is for survivability rather than damage (assuming you aren't stacking to 1500). You can stop at 1k and go balls to the wall on Zombie DPS if you want, but personally I feel like they have plenty of DPS after clusters/megalomaniac stacking and would rather put those few extra points into defense, and gaining Str seems like the best way to do that. Also hitting 1500 Str isn't super difficult with high-end gear, and getting that extra Zombie is a pretty big boost to DPS.

Hello, I've got a question on the Elegant hubris jewel. Using your Fast mapping build. Am I supposed to put points to skull cracking, or don't? You said to ignore but If I ignore it that means I only have 2 nodes to get minion damage off of.

What the passives transform into after socketing your Elegant Hubris will be random/different from his (it's based off the "Commissioned ##### coins" number, which there are a crapload of different versions of). So you basically have to buy an Elegant Hubris from someone (without getting scammed) who's already found one that gives multiple Slum Lord (minion damage) nodes, or buy the cheapest one you can find and re-roll it with Divine Orbs 50+ times, checking it in your different tree sockets after every roll, until you get one that has minion damage nodes.

Hi All,

any suggestion for the auras priority for the ranged spectre build? If I use all of them (purity of element, haste, dread banner, flash and stone and aspect of the avian) I have not mana to use for the other skill...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm not certain if Haste is actually used, I think maybe only Vaal Haste is. So you could replace Haste with Discipline to free up some mana and only use Vaal Haste instead.

Thanks for the advice, I have already applied the changes.

Another question... I realized that with the ranged specre build my zombies die very quickly in the maps with the "reflect physical damage" mod, is there a way to avoid this problem?

I used the Tanky build before and I didn't seem to have this problem...

physical damage reduction combined with refect damage reduction you can get your minions immune to reflect.

So I'm really enjoying this build so far, as soon as I picked up Frost Sentinel's things started melting (or freezing/shattering).

I'm wondering if I may have messed up though. I've been using the leveling guide tree to level and the PoB for Frost Sentinels is different. Should I just gather currency and respec to that when I can, or did I screw up?

Edit: I finished Act 10 today and am starting maps.
