Hi,

Does the agony minion need accuracy or does it has 100% to hit always (like spells do) ?

Ty

According to PoEDB it is attacks the minion does, and thus is should need accuracy. However, I haven't noticed it missing attacks when I've played. Note that I haven't actively been looking either. But it hasn't been like my SRS where I would see the spirits miss every now and then unless I went with Empower or a lycosidhe + necro aegis.

That said. If you use a lvl 21 gem in a calming calamity (as i've done the majority of the time) it seems like you don't need to worry about accuracy.

Ahty good to know, since i play in HC and plan on goin deep delving so rather put points in life nodes over minion dmg/accuracy nodes

Will the dmg from just herald and gems be enough without any dmg minion nodes?

Oh I forgot about the minion accuracy nodes, that may partly be responsible to why it never/seldom seems to miss.

How many (if any) of the minion nodes are you planning to pick up? With the left wheel + spiritual command, as I've done in the HC PoB, you should have plenty of accuracy and dmg.

Was planing to do none

just shield and life nodes since i wanna go deep delve with this build in hc

I see. I'd be interested in hearing how it goes :)

Also when you've reached red tier maps / 250+ delve see if you can notice the crawler missing, as it won't have any increased accuracy. If it does then I guess that Command of the Pit could possibly be quite useful.

i am prepared

The Victario's Charity could be a really nice damage boost for the crawler. Did you get to try it out yet?

There were fewer already corrupted victarios than i thought there would be (possibly because of EE's video), but i was able to snag one for 40c. The attack speed of the crawler seems a bit insane with frenzy charges. At full stacks, with my gear/tree, and with frenzy charges the crawler has 258% inc. attack speed and feels like a small machine gun. The extra minion movement speed also helps for mapping. The downside is that the Agony Crawler's range is further than the "nearby" range for Victario's so you may lose charges every now and then if you dont use convocation. The other downside is its low block chance basically requires a lot more investment in block for the tree/jewels.

Also losing the % life when you block mod also is a noticeable increase in how many small hits i can take. I used to be able to basically afk in the bloodlines obelisks, but now i basically just break even with the anvil's mods. Not the biggest downside, but its something i need to pay attention to now.

Edit - Im not 100% sure, but i do think ive seen the crawler miss a few times. Im not sure how to go about testing it but it feels like its aim is off sometimes or it just misses.

Also i dropped the instant warcry nodes. Keeping up 6 endurance charges was great for dealing with the random hits, but i dont need to spend 5 points for pure ease of use. I can use those for more life and damage.

Is there anyway to check for sure if crawler needs accuracy or not?

Also forgot to ask how do you get endurance charges as gladiator? ( used to playing juggernaut)

Dude... I'm drooling right now.

btw, SSF progress went well enough. Currently lvl 91 and red maps are no hassle at all.

I still didn't found or chanced the Anvil or Lioneyes Remorse.

I crafted some Gemini Claws (I didn't found a shaped one yet) with fossils.

I'm unsure if Despair is really that useful, I might want vulnerbility more.

While I don't plan on using herald of purity, I'm thinking about getting an Eldar Gemini Claw, to get some nice mods like more LGoH or Chance to poison. My weapon is all about ultility.

Current gear (yes it need upgrades)
