GhazzyTV - Beginner's Build: Lich Queen Skeleton Summoner [AWAKENER FARMABLE]
" Charity is used with Necromantic Aegis keystone for higher clear speed. Remorse or any other high life/res providing rare is used without NA for better defence :) " ^^^ " Hey, Glad you're enjoying it! 1000 strength won't really do much for you tbh it's more of a waste to get it for this build imo. Scourge procs on any hits, this includes Ball Lightning (or Orb of Storms for EE) as well as Shield Charge. Mistress only affects you but is only used for enhancing the clear speed. I went for CoD to get more resistances instead since I'm playing in hardcore. NA vs not using NA is a matter of taste, without it you get more life and/or jewels which means more life & better defence since you can use a high life/res providing rare shield. Using NA grants you increased clear speed thanks to the Frenzy charges. " Not needed but could be really fun! I personally feel the need for a rare ring in hardcore but in softcore I can imagine that being pretty damn nice. " Drop NA and use a high life/res providing rare shield, it should make that feeling go away pretty fast :) " Hey, I'd rather do Spectre/Skellies over LL spectres since Skellies are so brokenly good atm. It's also MUCH cheaper! Uber lab is doable but the same as all other summoner builds, it's fine but don't run full key runs, it's too risky. " Awesome to hear bro, good job! " Hey, Cheers! :D Purity is always helpful if you can sustain it. Commander also grants your minions res & dmg output. It's again a matter of personal taste tbh. The Clarity would only be beneficial if you go with CoD, correct. It's ok to skip IC but Porcupines can be risky if they explode in your face, I have a tendancy to play overly agressive even in hardcore so having IC is rather important for my playstyle. I honestly don't have anything with this build that I dislike, I've used this before they buffed skeletons many years ago and it's just gotten better & better and now they are just brokenly overpowered. " Change your weapon for Brightbeak, it helps TONS vs end-game bosses to have proper mobility despite loosing a bit of dmg. LvL 21 skellies are better than 20/20, and should be a high priority for Uber Elder, it will make a pretty big difference! Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

Sup guys!
I'm a somewhat new player (Only about 410 hours in) and I have followed this guide and reached new heights in the endgame! I always play blind HC so I usually have no idea what to expect, and die to stupid stuff. Here's a video of me trying The Apex of Sacrifice for the first time using Ghazzy's build! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk93Ujze_Us Here's just the Atziri fight itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fudar0CDtlI Thanks for a fun build dude! |

Actually i never had Aegis, instead i gone with a moderate life shield, the problem is that i only have 7.2k life, so things like elder tentacle seems to 1 shot me. So i was curious if that is normal?

" Hey, Awesome to hear, glad you're enjoying the build! Enjoyed the video as well, cheers! :D Though, watching you leave A'Alai as the last trio-boss alive is SUPER rippy >.< Great music <3 " Hey, Do you have a Granite Flask? This build is far from tanky and elder Tentacles are not really dodgable unless you're consistently moving so you gota be ready on flasks and when he spawns on the small tentacles you gota flask & shield charge fast to avoid getting hit more than once. 7.2k Life is "ok" but it should be a bit higher if possible. Your right ring & belt has very VERY low life for example. The shield has "ok" life, you can easily get 150+ on a rare shield with good ammount of resistances as well. Other than that your gear, jewels, tree everything looks very good. How is the build feeling in general for you? Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

Well, I did watch the videos so I know! Lich Queen completely trivializes that entire map though :D Still, enjoyed watching it <3 Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

" I'm running with Granite, Basalt, Stibnite, Blood of the Karui and a Seething Health Flask. As for the gear, sadly i can't really fix that, since "Bestiary Standard" economy is basically dead, so even crappy gear are like a fortune to get. But still even with sub par gear, this build is really strong and seems to be able to do any content i could trow at it (just need to be careful with phys enemies). Didn't really try guardians or Shaper on it yet, since my gateway is busted since 3.1 and i don't really feel like testing it on "Predictive" mode, but i have a feeling that it would probably be fine maybe? |

@SaintLucifer:
You should be totally fine since it's softcore :) Guides: https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/ghazzy-guide-hub

Ghazzy,
This may be already answered somewhere in this guide or your others. How do you determine the optimal gem choices for spectres? At some point I deviated from your spectre choices and picked up GMP (most likely when I tried frost sentinels for a bit) and just stuck with that gem setup. It's cleared Shaper just fine but I can see that my choice is not optimal for single target and that it only works on the solar guards default attack and not their most powerful attack. This actually helps general map clearing but I have no way to quantify how much I am impacting my single target damage to pick up additional clear speed. I've checked PoB and both Tukohama's Vanguards and Solar Guards are not in there as an option to configure so I am at a loss for how to evaluate spectre gem links for my build properly. Thanks in advance! Zuletzt bearbeitet von UnseenSpectacle#4425 um 22.04.2018, 18:45:57

Got to 36/40 with this build, so going to retire from bestiary. Must say it was a pretty nice, strong and smooth build to use. So good that i will probably have issues finding a new build for the next league lol. Thanks for the guide and hope to see more of your builds on the future.
