Could someone check my gear please ? I wonder what i should upgrade ?
Thanks, btw I'm using W/S V2 :)

Spoiler

Chest: Can get more life (100 life + 1spectre, then craft %life%mana

Helmet: +2-3 minion gems and/or socketed gems supported by Minion life, with life/resist if possible.

Gloves: More resist so you can alleviate the need from resist on other gear.

Boots: +1 to level of spectre gem with good amount of life.

Wand: can squeeze in more damage from a 70%+ dmg and 20%+ cast speed wand, they're not too expensive.

Shield: replace for a cheap high life + life on block shield. They're very cheap. Victario is useless since not using Aegis anymore.

Belt: It's alright, can prob upgrade it later for more resist/hp.

Ring1: I'd remove the minimum frenzy, that does nothing for you. Prob slap a resist of some sort, or +1 endurance if you can.

Ring2: I'd get something with more resist.

Amulet: Resists, again.


Flasks are okay.


All in all, I'd work on whatever you feel is lacking, but i'd change your shield right away.

You feel tanky enough? then work on getting more damage from your wand/boots/abyss jewels.

You feel your damage is fine? Then work on getting more Life/resists on your gear. The more resist you can get on your gloves/rings/amulet/belt, the more resist you can ignore on chest/helmet/boots to get better ones (because good boots/helmet/chest with resist is expensive).

Fortify from Kingmaker is good but the radius is really small. It's like 1/3 of the screen only. If you're rushing through the map you'll be too far.

If you are rushing through the map you wont need anything besides more movementspeed, so lets get rid of all defensive/offensive layers and invest in ms!

Dont even want to know how often this fortify saved my ass, especially since you are likely going to Convocate anyway one you reached a group.
In Delve it is going to be better since the uptime will be even higher.

If you run ahead with Quicksilver Flask then you're too far from Fortify. Plenty of opportunity to get instagibbed by a mob.

Still good to have though since nothing else is better.

Love your first build, the w/s version.
But I want to try the PoH version.

QUESTION:
Why did you do this?


I don't see anything in your gear that provides that and its -10 to both. And there's two Cold and Lightning. Why?

I'm in Delve 300 and notice mobs take 5-10 hits to die. I wonder if it'd be good to use a big AOE spell in the wand slot to proc EE. Or maybe even replace Armageddon Brand with an AOE spell? There's too many mobs to try to single target

Hi,I have a question, with "Unwawering stance" when you can't evade,you dont need so much dexterity right? Only enough for all gear and gems right? Also you dont need evasion rating I suppose, so all stuff with evasion rating here in the build can be replaced with Armor/shield gear,or am I understanding it wrong? Still noob

All versions of this guide don't care about dex (except for gems). Also we don't prioritize evasion on any version either. And usually people don't have the luxury to choose "evasion gloves" or "armor gloves". Personally I just pick whichever gloves have the highest life, dex, support mods I need and open prefix for minion damage craft. The gloves, for example, are so hard to get I can't afford to be picky about the base.

Does he have Elemental Army? That provides -10% to enemy res. Don't know why the cold damage is ticked as well. Animate Guardian might have helm with -9% to enemy lightning res, but that's indeed -9 and not -10. And only for one element.

That's a mistake from making the alternate spectre section. I was going to include pastebins, but it started to get too complicated.

I've update the first page with the correct pob pastebin: https://pastebin.com/30Ya26Ja

Try Bladefall and Added fire damage (you'll have to drop ehance to fit it in).

If you need more dps, swap deathmark for controlled destruction since you won't be single targetting anything.

I have convocate in my wand and sc through the map dragging my minions with me. KM might an option in that case, as they're rarely far from me. In fact, I'm surrounded at least 90% of the time. My AG is currently on 55k life. Is that enough though?

I suppose it will be as he's only died once during this chars times so far. 2nd oober elder fight. Nothing before, and none since... and I wasn't geared as I am now, so I guess I answered my own question XD Just levelling at this time, shaped T16 for 100 so no guardians or anything like that... Still worth it though for that sort of thing?

Any alternatives for Animate Guardian's chest piece? He's pretty much in 0 danger of dying so any chest pieces that give spectre DPS or player survivability buffs?

Zahndethus' Cassock? 100% chance to create Consecrated Ground (regenerates 6% Life per second) when you Block - synergizes with Bone Offering

I like this for preventing crits... it's a bit expensive though.
