I just tested it on Maven with Ultimatum character, with lvl 1 regular spell echo and 5L (no elemental army support) - i think thats closest as i can go to simulate hese nerfs. I needed 2 memory games in last phase, which is sad, but its not that big deal i think.

Maping is obviously fine, Elder was still afk fight, i cant test Sirus because i dont have any influence spawned on standard, and that would take way more time that i'm willing to sacrifice... ;-)

Can you give me TLDR on your build.Its different from the guide
Why snipers mark?
Which specters? Do they die?
How expensive is your wand and amulet?
How did you craft the ghastly jewels?

"

- i have awakened hextouch, so i had snipers as 2nd curse. I didnt use it today, because there will be no 2nd curse in 3.15
- specters never die. I use Matron, They of Tul, one of cursing ghost and AM.
- very expensive, i believe like 60ex for wand and 15 for amulet. But dmgwise, you can make the same +2 amulet for basically price of awaken orb, you pay extra for other stats only.
- random harvest reroll spam is easiest way to do these, sooner or later you'll hit something worth Leo slam. Or you can buy one of the stats fractured (should be minion dmg when you use skill because its rarest), and then alt/regals.
