Thanks for this guide. It's probably the easiest I've done all 4 labs.
I had a bit of gear and some currency to help get me started but was also fortunate with some drops, like my first ever good Stygian belt:

and amulet to give me lots of extra strength and dexterity:

I anointed my amulet to get the "GravePact" passive.

I think it's a bit of a glass cannon, so you *really* need good life rolls on all your gear. I've also invested some extra points into life nodes and life jewels. Kay's Summoner, in contrast, invests a lot more points to make you tankier.

I've reached level 92 and am pushing higher maps and deeper delves.

Hey Bunnios. Awesome Closed Beta badge!

Thanks for you kindness! I'm glad you like the build! Minions were really buffed this league, but ya, it's nice when the zombies do it all.

Those are sweet drops! I've been dreaming of a nicely rolled Stygian Vise for forever...just like yours. They are still only in my dreams though ;).

Ya, Kay's is quite a different build but really really good. This build used to be quite tanky with Consecrated Path and Fortify...but since the addition of Convoking Wands (no melee skills), I opted for the caster style summoner.

Great job hitting 92! Thanks for the kind words. Let us know how it goes! I'm always up for feedback on the build or the guide itself.

Yeah, I LOL'D HARD at that video, when I think about how I struggle with that fight, it is INSANE!

Hey Wod, since you are on...
Specter curses wouldn't count towards our curse limit since they are not our curses right? If I do go for Vulnerability and Elemental Weakness specters, they are hard to find and I don't want to waste my time.

Thanks!

Curses are tricky like that. Curse limits are applied to the enemy. So we are limited to applying two curses on the enemy. If an ally applies a curse to that enemy it will override one of ours. So you and the spectres you mentioned would be constantly overriding each other's curses :(.

Makes perfect sense, I will go with 2 host and 2 carnage then. I don't want their damage, i just want them to buff zombies and they are good distractions.

I am going to try hairy bonecrushers again, they are slow, but they do enduring cry, not sure if that is shared with party or not, but it is the only possible way I see to get endurance charges.

Did you try this? I wanted some enduring cries all over my undead body too but when I used them I saw no evidence of ANY enduring cries affecting me or my ladies.

Also, I didn't read your entire W_o_T (see what I did there?) but if you are using blood magic with your spectres then 1 host and 1 carnage is enough to keep max charges for everyone at every fight.


Zombie on!

I didn't bother, I used them before and noticed they never granted charges. The bears still suck! (Wisconsin joke).

I did put my specters all by themselves and they are fine.
did 4 apes, just need the charges.
Concentrated effect is nice, but I was sooo strong before it isn't really noticeable. Think I am buying Hardened scars for amulet, I NEED fortify! Tried the minotaur, ALMOST died, but I killed him before Concentrated Effect easy so I don't know what these zombies are doing, but they better get slamming!
Anyways, POE2 and mobile!! WOOOOOOO pretty amazing stuff tonight! If they link my PC stash to my phone, I will pay like a lot of dollars...

Edit: I bought hardened scars, it is nice! Works with blood of the karui flask as well. Maybe I am happy now... naaaaaaahhhhh :)

Sooooo...who's ready for change? A player's dream, a guide writer's nightmare ;). I can't wait!

I never really notice a difference switching damage support gems around. Starting to get the feeling it doesn't matter. Either way they obliterate. This does not sit well with the incoming nerf bat paranoia.

Haven't seen W_o_D's guide updates for 4.0 & POE 2 yet. POE 2 only 2+ years away. Wonder why he is being so lazy. WTF.

Speaking of lazy, off topic, sorry, I wish Game companies would stop freakin' announcing games 350 years from release. I mean, great, POE 2, but like 2 years away. Not sure that does anyone any good. <cough>Diablo 4 too<cough>
Back in the old days it would be like 'hey new game coming out next month!'. Now it's like 'hey you're children's children will get to enjoy blahblahblah 3!'.


Alas...
Zombie on!
