I am now using Asenath's Gentle Touch
Silk Gloves on my AG and its actually quite nice! The AG actually hit mobs more often then i thought and this spreads quite fast (seen by all the Temporal Chain marks left on corpses) because of:
Curse Enemies with Temporal Chains on Hit, with 40% increased Effect
Non-Aura Curses you inflict are not removed from Dying Enemies
Enemies near corpses affected by your Curses are Blinded
Enemies Killed near corpses affected by your Curses explode, dealing
3% of their Life as Physical Damage
The extra blind is quite nice too and the exploding happens a fair amount when fighting huge waves of mobs wich actually helps clear alot faster (the more mobs the more exploding corpses and Temporal chains on corpses), i like this alot better then Enfeeble on meginord's vise or Southbound.
Edit: its even better then expected, i really recommend trying it out.
Awesome, thanks for the info. This setup could be really helpful when going for wave 30 simulacrum!
Now if there only was an easy way to switch back and forth between different gear on my AG.....please GGG...
Hahaha i know right! think i wasted 15ex in the last 2 weeks changing gear on my AG >.<

Hi,
where does the AG get these things from? Asenaths gentle touch only curses with temp chains.
I went maximum investment on this build and i would like some faster (more reliable) way of map clearing since im pushing for lvl 100. I was wondering if someone could take a look at my Build and can see any smart ways to have better clear speed with minimum losses to my Quality of life?

Easiest ways to increase map clear speed:
- Use Minion Speed + Feeding Frenzy in your zombie links. Imo Feeding Frenzy is a must have for mapping to feel smooth. Minion Speed is optimal and depends on how much dps you have, but it feels so much better. I replace Impale and Melee Phys with these 2 gems. Find out what works best for you while still having good dps. If you really need to you can swap gems before boss fights, though probably not needed for map bosses outside of the guardians and other pinnacle bosses.
- Use 1 or 2 Violent Dead jewels. These are only available in standard. They reduce the cooldown of the zombie AOE slam ability by a lot and since aoe = clearspeed it helps a ton. I generally use at least 1 of these while mapping.
For reference, here's my mapping PoB so you can see the zombie links and where I put the Violent Dead: https://pastebin.com/bYQvEwsJ
If you're using a Lethal Pride I think it's best to put the Violent Dead in the jewel slot straight above the Witch starting area.
Thanks for the advice, this helps nicely to push to 100 faster.
Since 1h + shield is out of my budget for now i bought another Cluster jewel today, not perfect but it was quite cheap.
I now have 25k es and my zombies deal 2.4m dps each

Nice one, grats!
You may also want to look into the new unique ammy Ashes of the Stars. Depending on the type of quality on your gems you can get a lot of dps out of that. Ofcourse it will lower your ES, but you don't really need 25k for mapping anyways.
I've switched to a mapping setup with that ammy and I went from 4.6 to 6.2 million dps per zombie. That is with Minion Speed and Feeding Frenzy support. I lose about 6k ES, so 19k now, but that's plenty for mapping. I'd rather my zombies kill faster. As a bonus your minions will also get a lot tankier due to the +30% quality which I like because my AG died yesterday costing me well over 20ex to rebuild.
Was hoping to see some 3.17 builds of this too, so I'll start. Here's what I came up with so far: https://pastebin.com/6cD7fWBJ
It's not really in the same ballpark as the 1mil+ DPS zombie builds people post from standard league, though. Bad luck on currency and other drops this league. It's been a matter of trying to balance the higher defenses needed for 3.17 with DPS.

Seems like most people are playing skele mages.
I never seem to have that big of a problem with currency, but then again maybe I just don't get far enough. This time I am trying one of Fritso's takes on the build along with some of the gear for the main build etc. as I work toward gearing up higher. Seems to be working, though I am dying here and there to spike damage, so HC would either not really be possible or have to go really slow. Got lucky and got a femur of the saints rolled a six socket after I bought it and then had another six socket one drop for me. Just got lucky and 50 fusings even turned it into a six link today. In the early mid stages had several baron and meginods vise gloves drop for me with the uniques raining as long as you can get chaoswheavers to drop. My luck has been pretty insane drop wise this league. Now its just a run map, sell better rares to vender, and repeat..., as the next gear is 50C to 5E.
Hello everyone. Im a newbie, how to find this Pob for league start?
The gear in the opening post or the second post can give you ideas of what to work for there and if you look at a few of the skill trees posted by some of the standard players you can get an idea of what to work toward there pretty well. Otherwise feel free to either post your build or allow the chars to be public so people can see them, and ask as many questions as you need to.
