Witch - Stress-Free PoE! BONE ZOMBIES: No Required Items! 1-Button Play! SSF League Start-End! 3.13 - Forum

Hey man, thanks for the detailed guide. I’ve grown bored of trade league after so many of them, and going to give this a shot on ssf (not hc for this first try ;)) Just curious, how far have you been able to push this build on ssf in the past? Sirus 8? I realize that isn’t really the point of the build , I am just curious. Thanks.	Posted by Snibe#1151 on Jan 20, 2021, 1:39:23 PM Quote this Post
" Insedeel wrote: Spoiler Ok, I'm doing something wrong. I cannot seem to get CWDT to work with desecrate. As soon as I equip CWDT and link it to desecrate the desecrate skill gets an exclamation point saying it can no longer be cast. Definitely does not seem to be cast when I take damage either. What am I doing wrong? I deleveled the desecrate gem down to level 1, and have CWDT at level 3, so I don't think it's a level problem. And just to be sure I don't have it linked with anything else either. Just CWDT and Desecrate. Hey Insedeel! That's working great. When you see the exclamation mark on the linked skill, that means it'll work properly with CwDT. We can't manually cast gems linked to trigger skills such as CwDT. The reason you're not seeing Desecrate get cast is likely because you're not taking enough damage while levelling. That's a common circumstance with CwDT while levelling. Though levelling may be a challenge sometimes, it's more the combo of enemies rather than their strength. Don't worry. Once end game comes around, you'll see your trigger gems cast all the time. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days#7691 on Jan 20, 2021, 1:40:10 PM Quote this Post

" Dbabbc wrote: Spoiler Do you think this could work with Soul's Wick? Would it be worth to swap one of the gems to maybe cast when damage taken or something? Hi Dbabbc! I'm not sure. That's a pretty specific unique that requires a lot of in-game attention. This build doesn't focus on spectres as active buttons. You're welcome to try it out of course but adding any uniques is up to the player. Let us know how it goes. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days#7691 on Jan 20, 2021, 1:44:30 PM Quote this Post
" Ahou wrote: Spoiler Thanks for the great Guide! Loving the variability that this build offers, very newbie friendly with a lot of room expanding into the end-game. I was just curious about everybody else running this build if anybody has found any other Phys Spectres that they like for this patch currently? I'm still running with Kitava's Heralds and its working pretty well, but wouldn't mind switching things up. Hey Ahou! Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you like the flexibility and style of the guide.

" Xjustagamer wrote: Spoiler Loving the build so far. Using 2 carnage chieftains at the moment. Adding a host chieftain as soon as i can use 3 spectres, those 3 combined give a great buffs to the rest of the minions. Did pick up this for 1 chaos (playing trade league), should last me to higher tier maps Oh awesome Xjustagamer! I'm glad you gave the build a shot.

Hi Vicmeldrew1! 85 in a week! Great job! You're very kind to give me credit but it takes a lot to get there and not everyone does! Good for you! Smart levelling choices and purchase! I hope maps treats you well. You'll hit the new endgame before I do ;).

" AdunSaveMe wrote: Spoiler How do you go about getting the zombies to actually attack things? I'm finding that the majority of the time I'm in the lead, meaning I'm constantly under threat, because there's no way to get the zombies to target an enemy unless that enemy is right on top of me. I imagine this is primarily due to Meat Shield's defensive AI, and it makes it really awkward to use. It's definitely not very stress free when I have to basically through into a pack to get the zombies to start cleaning it up. I have died (or come close to dying) several times just trying to get the stupid things to actually attack enemies. How are you working around this? Hey AdunSaveMe! So, the build has A LOT of survivability (I have it listed in the "Gameplay (How the Build Functions When It's All Setup)" section). We have lots of damage mitigation as the build and gems keep levelling. Of course, we do have to get to that point. Meat Shield does make us a close-combat user, but soon you'll find that isn't going to be an issue. It keeps us safe from almost all damage (outside of incidental AoEs and such). Your character tab is set to private so I can't see what level you're at, but you can always level with Skeletons and/or Summon Raging Spirits if you're not a fan of levelling as is. If you are in maps and just don't like the playstyle, you're welcome to change Meat Shield to Predator Support. That'll let you aim your zombies no matter where you are. Just keep in mind you'll lose the survivability of Meat Shield's taunt. But at the end of the day, this build, as laid out, will do more damage and be more defensive the closer we are to our enemies. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days#7691 on Jan 20, 2021, 2:09:28 PM Quote this Post

Sirus 8? I realize that isn’t really the point of the build , I am just curious. Thanks. Hey Snibe! Thanks for the kind words and the post! I hope you like SSF. It's my absolute favourite part of these kinds of games and I'm so glad it's a legit part of the game now. You ask a great question! These builds can do the whole Atlas no problem. Sirus 8 for sure. I obviously haven't done the new Maven stuff yet, but I run triple-digit T16s all the time and the A8 conquerors are no problem. It's a requirement I have for all my guides, not just this one. The nice thing about minions is that you only need the gear to keep you alive. The offence is all on the tree and in the gem setup. Now I have never beaten Sirus. I also never will. My health situation doesn't let me "compute" similar things quickly so with bosses that have all the same or similar colours, I can't see a thing. I'm just a sitting duck. Sirus is all red, dark red, and black that looks like dark red. I can't see a thing. Uber Elder was the same way. Just tons of different shades of grey and I couldn't see a thing. I have had many people that run my builds that easily do A8 Sirus though. So it's not a matter of the build's ability, just my own ;). In terms of Delve, my account is around depth level 350 I think? It's pretty easy down there but it's not a focus for me. I don't really like Delve so I only do it when my bar is full. I'm a casual player and I only play on my console account about once a week. (I wish it was every night.) Anyway, that was a long answer. But I hope it helped. Good luck in SSF and thanks again for the thanks. https://www.ForeverExiled.com/: Forever Exiled, A Path of Exile Podcast	Posted by Wrecker_of_Days#7691 on Jan 20, 2021, 2:19:09 PM Quote this Post
