A little bit of a feedback after playing this build as "league starter".

...

Not sure if Evasion and Dodge is the way to go, since you kinda want to get hit to proc all your CWDT gems.
Discipline or maybe even Vitality is a better way to use your mana, depending on what the problem with syndicate encounters is, one shots or sustain.

You should get a 21/20 Zombie gem first instead of Empower 4. Does the same thing but costs less.

Yeah, i get your point and the idea behind for the Eva/Dodge.
The fact is it was a pure copy/pasta of my previous Delve Build, and i had a manual Spirit Offering back then and a minions blind-on-hit jewel somewhere around. The idea of the dodge was to avoid as much as possible any hit in the mines, and IF i'm getting hit, well CWDT-time "emergency".

With the nerf of Phasing (the visibility/aggro part), i tend to keep the same logic (even more), but i should give it a try again. And maybe looking to get a Faster energy shield recharge rate on a Watcher's Eye + on enchanted rings.

The 21/20 Zombie is slowly on his way (probably, maybe, one day or another, if RNJesus is somewhere around. The Empower 4 too, maybe another day this one... ^_~)

For survivability i guess discipline would do it better, with ES scale on the build, and since you have 15% mana unreserved, you can go for war or dread banner (10% reservation) for a dps and survivability boost too (less accuracy or less physical damage from mobs in the banner area).Personnally i would go discipline + dread banner : compensate the loss of dps from haste, and add great survivability.

Should be a good alternative, may its stacking with enfeeble on hit from AG then. Affect the Fortify Buffs also yourself? Atm i got unbuffed 3800 ES on 5100 HP and if i start my Discipline Aura im around 4750 unbuffed. With Spirit Offering its scales between 5200-5800 atm. and Grace should be good too, but i prefer the Vaal Discipline more. if ure buffed and u instaheal around 5-6 seconds, in this time u can rly be aggressive on the syndicatmembers. Atm i do T6-7 in all variations. Its kindergaarden atm. In Theorycrafting i do sometimes dream about a esh's visage/mirror idk right now, what blocks chaos trough ES...lol :) But then every equip needs to be perfect then...

You can hold "A" while you mouse over the corpses to see the name of the corpses, then press your Raise Spectre for getting him. :)

But you shouldn't have issue with your Spectres, they not dying that much (almost never?) normally. Try to raise them from a high level tier map with a high level Desecrate (if you can, ask to someone who's can do T15/Shaper to jump into his map to raise them ^^).

You can spam Desecrate to get another pool of corpses too.

You just saved my life hahaha... thanks :) The spectres now just die when syndicate encounters pop up... not high enough, still leveling though.

Couple of questions if I may. My gear very similar to yours (your shield is a little better, but not a lot). I'm level 90.

Your POB shows 5149 ES, your write up page shows 4349. How did you get to that? Does it take into account Mistress or something on the tree I'm missing?

Last question. Your write up shows you're using Immortal Call; POB says Enfeeble. Use whatever works?, or is there a reason? Thanks

Hey, short question: are this jewel corruptions usefull:

Corrupting Blood (jewel corruption)
Maim (jewel corruption)
Silence (jewel corruption)
Hinder (jewel corruption)

?

Where do you get that PoB link from?
I used Enfeeble before, but I changed it to IC. The PoB link in the guide has 5148 ES and uses IC.
I think IC is better than the low level Enfeeble, bosses have a huge amount of curse reduction, so it doesnt do much against them anyway.

I got to that amount of ES from the 1200 strength in combination with the chest and gloves and also from flat ES on ring, belt and the shield.
The screenshot in the guide is a bit older, i have this guide up for several leagues now. I just had worse gear back then.

They are always nice to have. I would prefer better rolled mods than those corruptions on a bad jewel though. Or even better a corruption, like the mana reserve one.

Hi great guide had a blast so far. Is Uber Elder possible with this build?

Thanks Professor...good build.

Yes, it is.
Switched in Empower(4) + (Minion Life), changed to Soul of the Brine King and Soul of Yugul and I also changed Haste to Discipline.
