A bit of a deviation but I thought it was worth mentioning. If you manage to reach 1k strength without meginord's vise, this combo of items is very strong -

It's essentially 3-4k ES on top of an already respectable life pool for virtually no investment. The zombies will heal your life and your high regen takes care of the ES.

how are people reaching 1k strength? even with meginord's, I'm only at 600 STR

You can check my profile, ING: Zombeletonfirst

Ripped this character in Incursion HC, had 1k str without meginords easy peasy.

Grim, just wanted to drop by and say thank you for this build. Its the first time I've got a character past level 75 and still enjoy playing the build!

My DPS took a pretty big hit due to some recent upgrades: 6L weapon to 5L Queen's Escape and 6L armor to 5L Belly (with 1 green socket to boot). As a result, I've been struggling with incursions.

Looking for some advice on what my priority should be at this stage. I'm thinking:
1. Upgrade jewels
2. 6L Queen's Escape
3. 6L Belly of the Beast

Please let me know if you have any other suggestions. All advice is welcome. Thanks!

how strong is Violent Dead jewel?
or two of them in one build?
will you switch them for "To Dust", Abyss Jew or other option

1.Is it really worth getting to 1k strength? Does the Energy shield on top of the health really work the same way? Because right now I have 6.3k health. If I did what you are saying, I would have over 8k health? If what you say is true, it sounds too good to be true. Could you post your gear?

I would say yes it's worth getting 1k strength, because it's easy. I'm sitting at 6100 life with 3300 ES, and I still have a lot of life nodes to grab and my rings could be much better - and you also have to factor enfeeble into EHP.

I think you can change some of your unnecessary jewels for better Ghastly ones.
Ghoul flame, Chimeric breath, Soul ruin (IMO), Apparitions also could be changed to rare jewel with 10% moving speed AND life\str\phys damage.
Just my 2 cents (not that I have optimized my jewels completely, I just love "From Dust" too much to throw it away T_T).

The other thing I'd probably do - get rid of current Queen's Escape and get one with better 15% rolls to minion damage\health and max skellies duration. You can buy near perfect Decree and fate it and then work toward 6 link (or make 5 link with jewelers touch on this). If you want to work towards 6 link on item, it may be as well near perfect item, right? ;)

I just defeated Uber Lab with this build. thanks alot.

sorry Im new to PoE and so I don't know the difference between HP and EHP. are they pretty much the same? so you basically have 9,000 HP?!

Love putting this one together for sure. I'm still pretty new at the game, so can I ask why Vaal Skeletons? I find that the normal version skyrockets my clear speed since I can stay on quicksilver most of the time and just spam a batch of 5 skellies as needed. Do you just let your zombies do DPS to get your Vaal Skeletons charge ready to go? I'm a bit confused on that. Any help appreciated!
