Hey guys, linking my current gear above. My animate guardian is using kingmaker, leer's cast and the elemental weakness gloves with 48 effectiveness.
My boss dps at the moment doesnt feel incredibly high as I was struggling to do mavens invitation: the formed. Died either once or twice there, dont remember exactly. For spectres I am currently using 1 frenzy charge monkey + 3 crabs. It IS currently possible to do some of the endgame bosses but it's kind of a struggle sometimes. One thing I do regret a bit now is that my chest gives +1 dex but not +str. The idea was to make a chest where you can swap easily between SO's and Crushclaws, but even that I can't really do at the moment since my white sockets are in the wrong slots. Is there anything else obviously wrong with my build at the moment? I am happy to hear any and all suggestions! Thank you all very much.

Hi!

There's some awkward things with your build.
Personally, I'm not sure whether I like that chest.
It's basically a worse +2 chests with some added life and lightning res.
What you lose is +2 on all support gems which is ~10% more dmg, 100% global defenses and Elemental Equilibrium or any other useful keystone.
I'm not a fan of your flask setup either.

I see you're selfcasting Frostbite and have -15% cold exposure from cold pen aswell so not sure why your dps is lacking. Just seems to be the shield holding you down.

You really should get a level 5 Awakened melee phys. It gives the build Intimidate which is 10% more damage.

We recently learned that it's actually optimal to use our Golems in the chest and Spectres in the helm. It provides a slight dps boost.
Since you're using Crabs it should be easy for you to just swap them around.
If possible you should go for these supports:

Chest: Awakened minion dmg, awakened melee phys, Awakened EDWA, Multistrike.
Either run Divergent Hypothermia which is better for clear or Predator which is better for bosses in the last slot.

Helm: Multistrike, Awakened Cold Penetration, Predator.

Also, using a 20/20 AG without a + to skill ring is playing with fire. He's pretty squishy I would assume.

This your current PoB:

You're at 8 million Sirus dps which is kinda low.

I would make these changes to your build while trying to get more tankiness:
https://pastebin.com/eipZGyaw

There's ALOT of changes in this PoB and I can't really playtest it but I think if you made these changes everything would be much better.

If I've done everything correct, implementing these changes should double your dps, give you 70% block and 74% spell block without glancing blows.
Make you Stun, Freeze, Ignite and Shock immune.
Pantheon changes protects you against poisons.
Also should give you better minion survivavbility and more life.

The changes I made included changes to your skill tree.
I changed your flasks, gave you a cluster and gave you new boots.
Alot of the immunities come from Jewel Corruptions which are easy to get.

When it comes to the flasks, you should Instil all of them to consume charges when charges reach full. This mechanic is super strong and ensures insane flask uptime without you having to do anything.

The biggest sacrifice is that you're losing Convocation with this setup since it's using Tempest Shield to cap Spell Block.

However, I think a solution could be to change Shield.
There's plenty of unique shields corrupted with Determination on them that you could try out. This would allow you to put Tempest Shield in your weapon and convocation back into the ring.

There are several intersting shields you could look into.
I think this shield could be promising:

Thanks for the tips. What is gravebind used for exactly, to trigger frenzy on Victarios? is it better than the elemental weakness debuff? You are right about the fact that I am not utilizing the trigger on my wand. I need to find some way to reallocate my skill gems somehow. Not 100% sure yet how to be honest. About the helmet, can you link some sort of example helmet that would be ultimate top tier? I don't think i've ever seen a helmet before with the mods you mentioned. And lastly, you mentioned "NA is replaced", but what is NA exactly? Thanks!

Gravebind is used in combination with https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Inpulsa%27s_Broken_Heart on your AG. Every enemy in the range of your AG that is affected by the shock aura of your skitterbot will explode, making clearing even faster.
The only downside is that gravebinds with elemental weakness / frostbite implicits are 3ex+ right now.

Thanks for the very comprehensive answers :)
Could you tell me a guide / wiki / other where to understand this thing about the bank of specters?

keep in mind that there were some changes in 3.16 that make this harder. You can't create a lvl 28 pvp character anymore, so you would have to level one yourself.

1) Gravebind is a new unique gloves. We use them to trigger Inpulsa's explosions. Description of these gloves will make you understand how this is possible.
2) Gravebind without Ele Weakness will make you worse in bossing, however your clearing will become much better. Gravebind with Ele Weakness are absolutely insane, as explosions apply curse on enemies in range.
3) These helmets are pretty cheap, tbh. We use one of them on the AG. Here are the mods:
Nearby Enemies have #% to Cold Resistance
Nearby Enemies have #% to Cold Resistance
Just buy a helmet with any of them or buy a base and alt spam till win.
4) NA stands for Necromantic Aegis.
Does putting Hypothermia on the Golems do anything if we put Awakened Elemental Focus on the Specters? I thought most of the chill/freeze came from them?

Chill comes from Skitterbos with supports, mostly. You don't use any type of ele focus on this build as it disables ailments.

I myself like the defensive effect of chill so i use elemental penetration instead.

I happen to have two of these


Do we simply lack enough points to go two cluster trees?

https://pastebin.com/GEG4VKFL

I mean this is one of possible trees but i would lose 40% life and 20life nodes.
And the build already is not best at not getting shrekt at 250stacks by first spell that hits in t16 corrupted maps.


Alternatively accuracy tree can be removed for 5 points towards hp which would return 25%hp and 20hp that would leave me at 5079life (5545 currently)

but i guess the accuracy tree is actually pretty important, and the double dmg chance on it is not bad either. When i unspec it i lose like 3mil dps

I very much welcome any suggestions on how would you guys approach double cluster tree.
I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay,
And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today!

I don't think it's possible to run 2 clusters any longer. We want too much stuff from the tree. The removal of our medium clusters also made it so clusters aren't as lucrative.
Does anyone have a strong opinion on what the good high end setup(s) are for AG now? Mine ripped to a blight map a few minutes ago, but I'm making enough money that I can comfortably make an investment.
