Are there similar builds that are tankier and we can let minions or some other stuff kill while we freely move to avoid damage like skelly mage? Don't matter if it's necro or some other class

Hello Exiles,I need some advice on mana reservation.

I'm playing Skelemage with Purity of Elements, Determination, Defiance Banner, Purity of Ice and Tempest Shield. I have charisma anointed on Breathstealers, 18% from Ashes and 43% from Sovereignty. This is the PoB - https://pastebin.com/QJrms631

I need to include Skitterbots and Zealotry-Generosity if possible. The options I know about are -

VERY expensive shield with %ES on block and/ or %life on block, extra block and 30% reservation on socketed skills.

Eldritch implicit on helm for 7-10% reservation. I would lose the 20% Minion Damage implicit on Bone Helmets though.
Any and all advice is welcome.

I tested SO last league (after the big nerf) and they didn't feel good. SO base damage is very low compared to other monsters so without shotgun the damage is pretty low. Map clear is OK, but I think it will struggle in current POE map density. Bossing felt pretty bad actually. I bricked Maven even though I used good gear

I used Hyrri's Watch in the spectre guide because I think it's the best all round spectre now (good damage + ranged). You can scale it up really high actually.

My friend has a high end CI build for them. Here is HW vs Feared: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BFfiqJb9Rs

I agree hat Hyrri's Watch feel like the best spectres right now.
Imo, their biggest weakness is that they have a very slow attack speed and feel sluggish with bad gear. Their projectile speed and range is excellent though, but the time between their attacks make them feel less smooth than SOs for map clearing.

Things like Ashes of the Stars making Flesh Offering give like 70% attack speed et.c. combined with Unending Hunger smoothens out the experience alot however.

The biggest benefit of SOs is how smooth their projectiles cover the map. The weakness is that they do negative damage. You will need very good gear for their damage to be enough to clear juiced content. Even better gear for them to smoothly kill bosses. A SO build literally needs mirrors worth of gear to do the single target damage of a 30 ex build which is laughable.

That being said, I think damaging spectres in general are in a very bad spot right now. They simply do less damage than ALL other minions in the game.
I think the biggest problem is their leveling scaling.

At level 20, all minions in this game get 10% more damage per level up to level 30. At level 30 Golems, Zombies, skellies, SRS et.c. start getting 5% per level. Spectres however, only get 5% more damage per level after level 20.
That means that at level 30, spectres have 50% reduced scaling compared to other minions.

I believe this is the reason yoo literally can take any Spectre build and replace the Spectre gem with any other minion and get ~50% more dps.
Things like Skeletons even get 100% more dps, but that's because Skellies have a 50% more damage multiplier added onto the skillgem itself making it deal more damage than all other minions.
