[3.14] Odif's Old Obsolete Skel Mage Guide, New one is in a new thread
|
As always on a quiet night at work, I sometimes came up with an idea, the idea may be a little crazy but I think I will see how it works, I will definitely throw it in PoB at home.
As a Femurs supporter (it's not only good damage but it gives me a lot of Block and with 9 Zombies almost 6% HP regen, and nice mana regen). Having 2x 6link, I assumed of course Skeleton in the staff and Zombie in Chest. but now I started to think about adding SRS as 6L combined with Winter Orb and CWC Staff: Skeleton Chest: Winter Orb + CWC + SRS + Physical to Lightning + Two best dps support 4L: CWDT lvl1 + Desecrate + Flesh Offering and Flame Dash 20lvl 4L: Scepter + Zombie + Blood Magic + Feeding Frenzy 4L: Anger + Wrath or Zealotry + Generosity + Enlighten (or Golem / Vaal Haste if we have reduced mana from tree) SRS along with Physical to Lightning will only deal fire and lightning damage, i.e. it will use its full EE potential. In theory, it looks very good, when I come back from work, I will check it in PoB and if I have more currency, I will try to do it;) it may also be that I throw it into the trash because finally SRS will be comparable to zombies on 6link, night shift always works well for imagination hahaha |

" I hadn't heard of this one before so I looked it up. Almost posted a Whisper before I saw that it was 3E and not 3C :) soo yeah. Maybe later. Does SRS really scale that high? I find the skill super annoying. |

I have a few questions for more for veteran players I was thinking about Triad Grips (2R 2G)
1. Does Carrion Golem work with the skeleton mages if you have triad grips it increases physical which would then convert to extra fire/ice (red/green)? 2. Since triad grips give minions a chance to shock and freeze do you need skitter bots? How much more powerful is the skitter bots extra chill/shock aura? Without skitter bots you could fit in Anger and Zealotry. |

I see your 1/19 change regarding the gloves, I had already got the Triad Mesh Gloves, do I need to change these out, or can I keep them?

" Pierce is needed to offscreen kill mobs that have not been cursed yet. | |
" The guides tries to use the fewest uniques possible. Easy for newbies is the idea. Alberon's is fine to use. | |
" Elemental Focus | |
" If you want to level with it, sure, but not map, there are already too many projectiles! And + gem levels is SO strong for this build. | |
" I disagree. I find that gem levels are the BEST way to scale damage. (Up to gem level 30, diminishing returns after that) | |
" My bad, i got confused between bone offering and bone barrier. OFFERINGS can be linked to CWDT, but we need it to be level 20, so that means a level 20 CWDT, which means it is not going off very often, and sometimes when it goes off, no corpses handy. Much better to trigger in wands via craft. |
