I don't know if this has been asked before, I'm sure it has. However, it doesn't seem that the bound fossil allows for maximum number of spectres to be rolled according to the wiki. What stat would be aiming for besides that?

This was changed from number to level a few leagues ago.

Ah, I guess the gear for the 3.10 POB is outdated. It still shows boots with +1 maximum spectre compared to the gear on the first page.

After playing a decent amount this league I believe there were two major nerfs to the build. I know we discussed them prior to the league, but playing with them live makes me think they are bigger than what I thought they would be.

Don't get me wrong, build still strong as heck, but here are my thoughts on the two big nerfs.

Bone Barrier

We all have different play styles, so this might not even be an issue for some, but for me it's very big. Yes, losing the 30 all res is pretty big, and I do feel it in making it harder for me to gear, but that's not my main issue with not taking this. Losing the Bone Armour skill has been very noticeable for me. Yes, the skill is still there and I could pick Bone Barrier still, but with the 30 all res gone, I can't justify it since the node has been gimped so hard. I am currently trying to find a way to fit steelskin in. I would have to drop my vaal skeletons though, so I'm waiting for better gear to try and unset ring it in.

I know I said I can not justify taking the node now, but I do sometimes think of switching. Having an extra 2K+ EHP for 50%ish of the map is huge, not to mention it takes away the need for a bleed flask. I know, have your cake and eat it too is my mentality right now, and I'll agree with that, but just wanted to point out I didn't think it would be such a nerf when I first read about it.

Raise Spectre

Before I state my opinion, my specs have a lot of space for improvement still, so maybe my opinion will change as league goes on.

That said, I'm not going to say bossing is the hardest thing in the world now, because it's not, but after playing this build for years, I can notice just how much longer it takes to kill high level bosses. Still missing 21 gem, and my boots with +1, as well a few other things I could do to improve, but it is noticeable. I think this was a little heavy handed of GGG. Specs were not the problem the last few leagues, it was zombies and skeletons. I don't think specs have really been a problem since they got ride of the old necro node Soul Weaver to honest.

TL;DR

Build still really great. Bossing is a bit harder. Defense is a bit worse.

I went ahead and took a look at your build, few suggestions.

You do not have Necromantic Aegis allocated. Since you are using Vic Shield, that needs to be turned on. You are missing out on a substantial amount of damage because of that.

I'm sure you are in the process of it, but gear typing. We stack ES with this build, so using things like sorcerer boots/gloves as base will give higher total ES than hybrid ones.

You have two granite flasks, rumi and a rare one. The armor does not stack, so stick with rumi's and swap that flask out for a different rare flask. Also you are using a diamond flask as well, we don't really ever hit, other than to proc our EE, so you could also swap that out for a different rare flask as well.

Everyone has their preferences, but after playing this build for years I can say this flask set up is my favorite.

Life cause life, hybrid cause sometimes you need mana(and extra life sometimes is nice too) in no regen maps(this flask can be avoided completely if you never run that map mod though) rumi cause amazing for block, silver for a little faster movement, quicksilver for lot faster movement.

Trust me, I hate taking melding and written in blood, but I see you skipped them for more damage output, and there is no right or wrong way on how to play the build, but if you do find yourself dying a lot, those clusters do add up quite a bit for defense. After you get your gems all up and leveled, golems melt trash mobs anyways.

You can also level your empower in your off hand and use fire pen gem for the time being to add a little more damage till your empower does something as well.

I hope you're having fun with the build, and I hope it goes without saying I'm not trying to be rude, just when I looked at your build it reminded me of when I was first running the build a few years ago and things I wish I knew then.

Hey Mika, saw this on reddit, I would imagine it would be pretty useful to you.

I do have a pair of sorcerer boots with the correct ilevel that I've been trying to fossil craft with no success at the moment.

Mika I am sure this was asked but where do we fit in Voices jewel with 3 more Primordials or even a Large Cluster with some solid nodes?

Just check your boots do have elder influence on them and are iLvl 75+ as I seem to recall that this is required now to get +1 to Spectre level boots.

You might be correct. All the boots that I can find on trade with the roll are all elder influenced. However, sites like poedb and the poe wiki don't mention that it's elder exclusive.
