Alright I got my spark from 27k to 57k before buffs with some passive tree changes, which blew my mind. Comet went from 600k with buffs to 815k. I'll try simulacrum later and see if I can stomp it now... think I should or I will cry HAHA.

" Nice! This will be my next thing to try! |

Arf When I check Monik stats it's always frustrating ahahaha
440k xD 500+K xD I have 240k in boss setup (without impetius) I keep failing 15/15 simulacrum. I feel like I lack damage to not be killed. I will try to buy the lvl20 uncut gems since i never got a single one xD. BTW: is there an import button on maxroll or PoB to show my current setup without having to manually set everything ? EDIT: for simulacrum do you use impetius or concentrated effect ? If there is no import button I'll try importing everything. But Yes i have only lvl 19 skill gems.

" Could you please explain, why you have skeleton in the main weapon skill set? I checked your video, i do not see that you do offering during the casual clearing. 306 spirit (100 +206 from Omen Scepter) is absolutely enough to run without the minion and use Morior Invictus with mana+resist and breach ring without spirit, so you will be able to free up much more stats from gear reducing the necessary resists (low resists roll costs less with high mana roll). I can be wrong, sure, but rattling for pre-buff isn't enough? |

" no import yet. but you can copy/paste items, which will speed things up a lot, in PoB. >open up PoB. >items. >create custom. >open up path of exile itself. >pick up item/jewel. ctrl+c. >tab back to PoB. >ctrl+v in create custom. >create. >add to build. |

" The minion is for minion pact support gem. 40 more damage but you remove 100% of your Life Pool from your minion. Since I am running CI I only steal 1hp for 40% more damage. The dps from this will not show up in the tool tip. But currently at 64k sheet dps. With that support gem I am at 89k sheet DPS. |

" Thanks, mate. I might add this to the OP a bit later. " Honestly, it seems like a leveling or low-budget unique before a decent wand. It is fairly easy to get 300-400 spirit with cheap stuff like Enfolding Dawn (100 spirit w/o lvl requirements) and some sceptre/amulet. It doesn't seem worthy of elaboration on it. " Hello, I saw a Reddit post and decided to link a video here, why not. You are welcome here. No problems in general, just a couple of questions. Mostly about how to hit 7k mana =) " Yep, I was a bit surprised it required just 50-70d to "finish" the build, although there is still some room for improvements for me, like wand, helmet, lvl 20 gems (most of mine are lvl 19), and My initial idea was to make smth like godofty made, go scale mana to 6-7k, drop Gaze for +3 amu, slap Spark with Dream Frags instead of Frostbolt/Snakepit, add some Prism of Belief with +3 Comet (like 30% more damage), add some CoS-LC too making the build more of a hybrid lightning/cold, whatever else. The problem here is I tend to make "All content" type of builds on a medium budget and call it a day after I'm done with the game, which is a limiting factor too. Like yeah, I can do all bosses/Simulacrum at any difficulty, and do any kind of maps, but I can't really boss carry more than 1 person and have no drive to scale more than that. And I played enough already, definitely not that dedicated to farm for anything. I just log in every evening, do a couple of maps and/or Simulacrum and that's it. In my PoE history, I rarely went up for more than 100 exalts/divines per league, with just 2-3 leagues when I actually made multiple mirrors. " Yep, it is bugged and disables attribute gain from travel nodes. The same goes for From Nothing jewel. " - Concentrated Effect instead of Impetus. - Comet lvl 20/20%. - Archmage lvl 20/20%. It's big. - 500 more mana. - Echoing wheel instead of Deadly Force. - Boom, you are here. 1.6kk in you PoB with those changes. " I mean I play around the Walls with Bludgeon support in Simulacrum. Idk how to press the Frost Wall if there is almighty Spark on my skill panel xD " Numbers, once again, under all buffs. Soul Offering, Echoing, Stormcharged. Yes, lvl 20 gems are very strong. Read my respond about the damage above ^^^ I run with impetus-energy retention until wave 13-14, than swap retention with Conc. " Very solid approach btw.

" Wow. I did not look at this from that perspective! Will wait for your results from the simulacrum, because frostbolt sometimes just boils my PC and spark looks promising, but I am tight on budget to respec for the testing and only 89lvl |

Small update.
Real quick: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/6x7q0cm3 Played around passive tree, was swapping cast speed (Practiced Signs) for Frostbolt projectile speed (Turn the Clock Forward wheel), feels good but more like a waste of passives. Can live w/o that. Ended up with investing in shock magnitude. Allocated Breaking Point and Power Conduction (via Controlled Metamorphosis), and added Overcharge support to Frost Wall. Shock went up from 20% to 46% =) |

^ Passed Simulacrum benchmark.
Full Simulacrum run (lvl 82, no edit): https://youtu.be/4vFfjvzEBeI Basically, the demonstration of CC with Bludgeon support. Waves 9-13 were harder than 14-15. I was stunned on the Time Freeze cast during the emergence of bosses at wave 15. Flask drop, yay. OP af. Highly recommended. It works perfectly fine with CI. Getting closer to the endgame build of thought. New Frost Wall setup: Spell Cascade - Magnified - Considered Casting - Overcharge - Glaciation (Bludgeon for Simulacrum). Dropped Deep Freeze. |
