Is spell supression worth it even i wont get a lot of it? Just another x% unless i can get 100%?

Was thinking about dropping more dmg in favor for more life regen because so many degen effects nowadays

Edit: btw i just noticed your ascendancy for necro doesnt match you linked pob... commander of darkness and bone barrier switched

Hm no. You need 100% :\ It's one of my goals to fit into the build.

Thanks for notice. I have so many guides, so something always gets mixed!

Any thoughts about the new Alberon's Warpath item. I'm trying to use it and like how my skeletons can convoke. Although my build is needing a lot of work and items to push even further

Kay, from Skeleton Mages guide, what does this mean for Bone Helmet?
"The enchant should be Skeleton damage. And add +1 skeleton with your crafting bench, if you can."

The example shown has SRS enchant and the only enchant I know for Skeletons is +1 # of Skeletons.

even though they are legacy helms, the enchant and bench crafted mod are what she is referring to.

enchant - Skeletons deal 40% increased Damage

bench craft - +1 to maximum number of Raised Zombies
+1 to maximum number of Skeletons

Unfortunately my crafting luck is run out and I can't make +2 on a new helmet, so I just re-use my SRS helmet (+2 mod is really really hard to get!!)

You want the labyrinth enchant "Skeletons deal 40% increased damage" like this:


Then you want to craft prefix mod "+2 to all minion skill gems" like from my SRS helmet:


Finally, you want the bench craft "+1 number of zombies/skeletons" like spaceace's helmet:


Good news is you don't need Bone Helmet because you will replace the "minion deal 20% damage" with exarch/eater mods. So just buy the cheapest helmet with the skele damage.

It needs to be item level 75 to get +2 minion gem.

The best chance to get the mod is 4 socket + bound + pristine + dense + shuddering. This combo blocks most of the prefixes (1/22) but +2 is very low weight. Cheaper option is 3 socket + bound + pristine + dense (1/39).

I don't like the new change because it's already easy to resummon skeletons. They also have low life and die easily so need to resummon anyway. Lastly, rare boots gives a lot of stats/mods so I think it's better.

Kay not sure if you've messed around with it yet, but Rathpith and Necromantic Aegis work REALLY well with skelly mages. You lose a bit of defense not having a shield, but if you stack health in passives and extra suffix slots you can get something like 350%+ spell crit and spell damage for the skellies pretty easily. I've been working on the standard skelly mage build with Fleshcrafter, but with Rathpith and Necro Aegis and 3 multi Grand Spectrums. I've gotten up to around 600k dps per skelly mage and I don't even have a 21 vaal skeletons gem or a +2 to +4 chest yet. Lots of room to grow dps wise and really hoping a minion tester like yourself will give it a shot.

If I have 20 SRS out and I cast it again, do the onces that get replaced count as 'minion death' in regards to the Life from Death passive?


On another note I can switch to Hatred at anytime correct? The Grip of the council
gloves just add to the dmg they are not required before switching?

Oh that's a nice idea. How do you feel about defense? Do you need to play a bit more carefully to stay away from trouble?

Hm. actually I don't remember if it works for SRS. Need to check!

Hatred any time! grip is just to add damage.
