Hi, I don't understand much about cluster jewels, (I never equipped them) Is it a requirement if or if I add 8 passive skills? , I wonder why there are some in the trade with 12 skills at a better price

PS: I am following the medium budget

The last 5 hours of playing I've been transitioning to the Simulacrum edition of the build. After running some tests in lvl83 Heist contracts I feel myself pretty much immortal, despite having less than 4k Life. I've been tanking the whole squadrons of the Heist rare monsters (reinforcements that make formations behind doors after the alarm), having more than 75% of my Lifepool left. The only thing that concerns me is that it's likely to be hard to play at the beginning of the next league on a less tanky build.

Hey Deadandlivin, thank you for this very nice guide. I followed a long time and tried to implement whatever was recommended by you or the others.

Now I have some questions:

1. What should be my next big upgrade? I still have a live search running for Skin of the Lords with the right colors but seems like to be impossible... Have 30 Ex left at this time.

My current gear:

2. I have the following Ring:

Is that enough the BladeVortex to trigger EE (when I finally get the chest)?

3. When I use "Add a Mod to a Shaper Item" via Beastcrafting on my Bone Helmet‌, can I get the Crit Chance via this? And will it only add Shaper Influence mods or any mod? Sounds like this would be way better then Ex slam.

Thank you!

1. Chest would be a massive upgrade for you, especially at your budget.
You don't need to go for a 4red-2blue like me. It's not even the best color, the best is 3b-3r.
You want to get any armour with EE that has atleast 2blue and 2red.
You also want to limit the greens to 1. This leaves you with these options:
* 3b-3r (Best Overall)
* 3b-2r-1g (Very good overall)
* 2b-3r-1g (Very good overall)
* 2b-4r (Best for clear)
* 4b-2r (Very good overall)

Any of these chests will perform close to oneanother.

2. That ring doesn't work since it's to attacks.
You need to craft the ring benchcraft.

3. It will add any mod, it's not an influence slam like from Harvest.
Useless craft, basically a cheap exalt slam.

Been farming simulacrums lately and it's criminal how profitable they are.

Decided to record a full one from wave 1-30 so everyone can see how it looks.

After doing a bunch of them I've realized the layout in the video is the absolute worst one for us.

It's very tiny and compact which presents a new issue to us that I've never encountered:
At times, we have too many minions. Sometimes when a boss decides to settle in a small and tight corridor there's not enough space for all minions to surround him and start wacking. It's kinda annoying when you see 2 carrion golems and our crab stand behind an army of zombies doing nothing because there's no way to get through.

As for mods, no mods are really a problem.
Increased monster life and added ~70% cold res are annoying though because everything becomes a drag.

If ppl really want to make easy money, get the build to the point where you can run these and just chain them. I think I'm easily making 3 ex minimum per Simulacrum.

Huge tip I discovered today for the actual playstyle of our build is the Numlock trick. I used to run this when I played Necromancer in Diablo back in the days and had totally forgotten about it.
It's a totally legal option that utilizes the numpad area of our keyboard to constantly press some of our Keybinds. It's totally legal and people have been using it for Years. What I've done is basically put Molten Shell on autocast so it triggers off cooldown which gives us 1 less button to worry about.
Could apply it to Vaal Grace aswell.

Here's a video about it:

Did you not know that Simulacrums are among Tier S types of content to farm this league ? The only reason they are 1ex rn is because most builds just can't handle them. There is a misconception that builds to farm Simulacrum have to be 150ex+.

Btw, another extremely profitable type of content to farm is Black Scythe Logbooks. If you haggle with Tujen for the artifacts you get, it's easy to make 1-1.5 ex per book. You can break even on Coinage just by buying Stacked Decks only. The only problem with such method is buying decent books - during my last such session I spent 6 hours to livesearch 20 books. However these were the really good one - Black Scythe, good locations, additional explosives, 1 mod for radius / range.
