[3.21] Cold Conversion Summoner | Build guides for all budgets | (Ghazzy Zoomancer)

Hi, I had a good read of the thread and I have pretty clear ideas of how the build works.
I only have some doubts about the gems to use on Raise Specter (but I'll see later) but I would like you to explain a few things to me:
1) EE is core or there is more room for maneuver;
2) With AULamu the use of Grace is still recommended or it is better Haste since we have Determination;
3)Large clusters are still harvestable or there are other ways;
4)Since I am a player who tends to do everything by myself, how does Desecrate work to always have the required spectra available (always using host and chiftain I never asked myself the problem) and not having to ask in chat?
Thanks

Hi Dead,

Wanted to check what the helmet enchant priority would be, is there a superior helmet enchant for both single target and clear, or would it be different enchants for each?

Thank you.

I believe this one works best also with these/similar modifiers.

1) EE is the best keystone you can get on your skin of the lords. If you don't have it, you need to get exposure from another source (i.e. lvl 5 awakened cold penetration, elemental army or frostbomb), but you'll be missing -15 resistance still.
2) It's mostly how it feels to you. If you die too often for your taste, use grace - if not, use haste
3) I think the only thing you can really do with harvest right now is spam reforge crit for vicious bite and hope for additional good mods
4) You can only spawn spectres that are part of the current map's mob pool + your current spectres. This means that once your crushclaws die, you'll need to grind harvest until they show up again and you'll be quick enough to raise them before they despawn. Alternatively you can ask nicely in /6666 chat :)

Hi guys,

I just got the Skin of the Lords with "Arrow Dancing". Just wanted it because of +2, but afterwards I'm wondering about "Arrow Dancing". Do you know if "evade projectile" also inlcudes elemental stuff like a fireball? Or does it only work for arrows & knifes and stuff like this?

I'm unsure about it, because I got it for 15c and don't know, if it is crap...otherwise the other two ones in trade costs 1 or 2 ex...

It includes elemental stuff and spells.
All projectiles basically.
Arrow Dance could be a cool Keystone.

Cool, that's great. Do you know, if the global defences of the Skin also have an effect on arrow dance?

Yes, but you should keep in mind that https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Arrow_Dancing says:
"Arrow Dancing will not work on spell projectiles as spells do not have evade check"
No idea if this is correct as I have not tested it myself

Do you think this "damage against shocked" is enough to proc EE from my chest? Skitterbots should always shock


I tried to check at chimera but i'm unsure because he died to quick that perhaps i did not hit him with blade vortex at all.



Also i read post few pages ago saying that assassin mark is better, in guide it was frostbite. So I wonder which gives more dps at bosses assuming u got kingmaker anime guardian

@Deadandlivin

What do you think about using Megalomaniac in the build ? Death of our Medium Clusters has brought idea of such replacement to my mind. Something like this may (I think so, haven't tested tbh) even set our Amulet Slot free.

50% increased mana reservation efficiency is not the same as 50% decreased reservation.
With Sovereignity wheel and Charisma anoint that cluster will give you +8% unreserved mana (vs +31% from Aul's)

I know that reservation efficiency != reduced mana reservation. However, according to my calculation, setup with Charisma and such Cluster will leave us with -3.6% unreserved mana without Aul's. In your current setup removing Molten Shell, putting Convocation in the ring, Hatred with Generosity in the shield and using Enlighten (even lvl 3) in the shield will make it possible to remove Aul's. Using level 4 Enlighten will leave you with 5% of mana, which theoretically may allow you to throw Lifetap away.

Oh that makes more sense. Did you get the 5% from skitterbots with unbound ailments instead of bonechill? Not sure if it's worth spending 4 passives including a jewel socket though (also ~19ex for enlighten and the cluster)

To be honest I don't know how big of a deal grace even is at this point. The biggest rip factor seem to be spells and evasion doesn't help with that. Trying to fit in divine flesh might be a good idea.
