[3.14] Odif's Old Obsolete Skel Mage Guide, New one is in a new thread

Hello guys, One quick question is where to ideally place a fortress covenant gem ? Thx.

Can this build do high level content like The Hidden, The Formed, Shaper, Elder etc...? I'm considering switching my build to this. Thank you!

If you want to build more defensively, there's the MOM+Agnostic variant Promaore and I have been rocking. It gets quite tanky without much added expense, can continue to scale very well with high investment. A drawback is less potential damage (you cut an aura) but it can still be taken all the way up to 100% deli.

Only place to put is in a cluster socket, where radius effects are disabled

Havent played a summoner in a long time and decided to start with this build, so far its absolutly amazing.

im still in early yellow maps, but ultimatums have been a joke mostly. If it gets more rippy in red maps I might take a look into the MoM/Agnostic variant.

Only change I did so far is using a profane proxy ring for elemental weakness because im lazy and dont want to cast Stormbrand, even though its weaker, but thats not a problem so far.

Thanks for the answer. May I ask if the dps and clearspeed is good? Can you do guardians or have confident defeating them? Would Fleshcrafter be better in your setup?

hey there. Just to post my feelings about this build : LVL83 today, never have a smoothiest leveling experience with another build-and I played a lot since the last 3 years. Need these breathstealers, and a lvl 21 bone offering...anyway, with just a lvl21 9% vaal skele and dead reckoning, even with my crap gear (poor 6l chest, but capped resists) this build melt bosses like a charm. It really shines in ultimatums and blights. Really a great great build, you can feel the potential for further investment. Congrats OP!

I highly recomend the MoM+Agnostic variant, i been doing some testing... theres a lot of possible variants for this path, the defense layer is insane too.
