[3.13] SPECTRE SUMMONER (2021 Edition) Necromancer Build. BEST League Starter! + VIDEO GUIDE!
|
Hello,
First I would like to thank Angry_Roleplayer for the guide. I really enjoy the necromancer fantasy and this build was my very first character in PoE, during Betrayal, and has also been my second character's build for Synthesis (now playing with a little bit more knowledge of the game and it's mechanics). That said, I'm currently lvl 91, with some sweet gear (recently acquired my 6L Vis Mortis) and have been doing just fine, yesterday finished the Elder quests with no issues and now going towards the Elder and then Uber Elder. In the last couple of days tough, I had an issue I've never had before and would like to know if it also happens to y'all too. I was running a T13+ map when suddenly, and for the first time using this build, I noticed that my Solar Guards were dead. I raised them again, but it kept happening in that particular map. Next map, all fine... Latter in the day, I faced the same problem again in yet another map, so after that I tried to uncover what mod was responsible for this and yesterday I discovered that my spectres were dying to totems, specifically Vaal Totems if I'm not mistaken. I do not understand the game mechanics so well at the moment to know if they die because the physical dmg provided by the totem is too high for them, or if they die because they can leech the 1 HP mobs, or even if it actually is another totem's fault. Just wanted to know if it also happens to other spectre summoner players, if it is a particular weakness of this build etc. In one way or another, I'll be avoiding maps that have the totem mod for a while. Sorry for any bad grammar and regards from Brazil! |

" Use defensive curses like enfeeble and temp chains. You don't need 3 life flasks, get an armour or dodge flask, or rumis for damage make sure you use lvl 84+ spectres https://www.twitch.tv/angry_roleplayer

Based on POB, Cannibal Fire Eaters at least 2 times stronger than any other possible spectre.
" Ele reflect maps are NOT possible for summoners, because, your spectres are killing themselves and no matter - how many regen or leech they have. Auctioneer House - is a MUST!
'POE2' is not 'POE1 2.0'! https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3614313 |

" Not agree, it of course going slower, but what i'm doing in ele reflect T14+ maps Removing spell echo, and removing the stone from passive skills, than they are not making so mage damage, and using skeletons to clear everything. It becomes slower - but still manageable if i need to close the maps :) |

" 1. You have no resistances to Chaos 2. You have not used neither any of possibilities - neither Mana shield, neither Evasion of spells, neither additional chance to block of course you are always squeezed by the monsters. 3. Change your bandits choice to 2 skill points - use it wisely 4. Up to Uber Elder you do not need so point target damage, but you need more splash damage, change your skeletons for melee splash damage, and change your skills for +2 to skeletons summon instead of aura damage. I'm using Mana shield+evasion for spells skill, have 4k HP and 2,2K Mana - receive very rarely oneshots for all mapping. 75 resists for all types. Now upgrading the equipment to have at least 5k HP & 2 k Energy shield for more survival:) Damage is more than enough without blasphermy support and elemental weaknes, but i'm using helmet with immolate by skeletons. |

I've had no problems with ele reflect after picking up the minion life regen/leech nodes
The only mod that I don't like is no regen just because it's a hassle to put on a mana flask and it's a little higher risk, and maybe no taunt This build is definitely not very tanky and requires constant dodging, fortify, and flasks Also remember to summon skeletons for any fight that will take longer than a second or two especially if you've dropped zombies I've dropped out of Commander of Darkness for Bone Sculptor which provides more value imo, making skeles easier to summon and more effective I also like picking up Harrier for the extra move and attack speed |

Thanks for the reply!
I don't seem to find trouble with reflect elemental damage maps tough, at least not that I noticed. Ran one map earlier with that mod today, with no casualties to my specters. I'm pretty sure it was the Totem mod that was killing them, specifically the totems that don't allow their minions to die, as I saw this happen and tested it afterwards. It still might be related to reflect damage mechanics if the totems apply that too, but I'm not so sure. Btw, I currently already have all the leech nodes too. |

it absolutely is the invulnerability totems/auras or shrines
invulnerable enemies will kill your spectres so be quick to pick up the shrine, or if it's an totem/aura make your minions target it by shield charging into the invuln source then convoking overlapping aoe is another thing that's killed my 84+ spectres so be sure to convoke your spectres out of it other than that there isn't much to worry about unless you're getting nuked with some stacking modifiers |

" Thanks! I've removed Anger for some time and linked: Blasphemy-Enfeeble-Temp.Chains-Ele.Weakness. I don't have enough mana to use all of them (only 2 + Clarity), but now my setup is definitely more reliable. " 1. Yes, I know that. 2. I can't use mana shield, cause it reserved for auras. I followed Angry's advice and now it's much better. 3. Yeah, already did it :) 4. I'll try, thank you :) |

Anyone knows why no necros on the top deep delve ladder on HC? Is necro not good for delve?
Also what are best overall spectres in 3.6? Ty |
