Hello!

I've hit a wall and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've managed to get some mid range gear and I feel like my damage is kind of bad. Map clear is amazing but i seem to struggle with bosses. Will getting Elemental Equilibrium help with that? I've been searching for a 4R2B/3R3B for two days straight with no results... I dont swap in any gems whatever I've got equipped is what i run.

My animate guardian has what was recommended by another user: Kingmaker, gravebind with elemental weakness, additional curse boots, tyrant helm and impulsa.

I've started to use clawcrushers over syndicate too, I feel like they do more for me than syndicate especially for single target.

Is there anything I need to be doing to maximise dps and what should I purchase next/invest into?

I'm very new to minion builds so I'd appreciate the help!



Hard to help since your profile is hidden :)
You have a PoB or anything?

Hi thanks for the guide, I've been trying this build and it's pretty fun (it's my first time trying a minion build)
I may have done a lot of mistake, my damage is fine I think in single target it could be higher but it's also good enough to do maven etc.. and since I started using Tempest Shield and Bone Offering I stopped dying

I managed to get to 25 waves of simu and then all my minions started dying except the primal crushclaw and the AG (the same happens when I farm invitations like The Hidden), right now I'm using 1x crab and 3x SO
I can handle nemesis 3 maps with 20% deli but my clear doesn't feel good enough

Can I get some advice on how to continue? should I switch my armor for one with 3b - 3r or 4r - 2b ? everytime I try in PoB I lose a lot of sdps (but I may have setted it wrong, I'm not really used to minion builds)
Since I would need to spend 9 ex (empower) + cost of armour or the cost of crafting it by spamming Presence of Chayula if none appears on the market I hoped I could get some advice before proceeding
I currently have 50 ex saved that I can spend right now

AG Gear : Gravebind + EW, Inpulsa, Helm with -9 Cold Resist, +1 curse boots, Kingmaker


I swap flesh offering with bone offering on my wand if I just want to run through maps fast
also a lot of stuffed changed from the first day so I'm not sure I'm doing everything right lol

Take "Minions recover 5% of Life on minion death" mastery node instead of your current one. This 5% recovery gets triggered every time you resummon a Phantasm when you have their number capped - the old one just dies. With it you should have no problems on any kind of content except late Simulacrum (the whole setup was designed specifically for it) and Sirus (due to his spinner, that stacks ailment, making a target take more damage). Spamming Chayula's Blessing is a terrible idea - the pool of possible mods is too big. Just livesearch the Skin with required colors and / or send forum messages to offline players with the item.

You' want to get lvl 5 Awakened Melee phys asap if possible. Intimidate is a straight 10% incrased dmg multiplier to the build so it's important.

You probably want to look into getting a armour with 3 reds so you can put in Empower level 3. It will help alot with survivavbility since the armour puts the gem to lvl 5 for +4 levels. If you can afford Empower4 it's even better.

For better minion survivavbility you might want to look into another medium cluster with Blessed Rebirth and Life From Death.
You need the 4% life heal thing to keep minions alive somewhat.

For Sims, carrions won't survive without an Empower Gem in higher levels. I never found my spectres dying though. Zombies are pepeg and will probably drop at times. But if you get the medium I'm talking about alot of issues will be solved.

Why are we using inpulsa here, are we schocking monsters somehow for the explosion?

You definitely should be looking into a chest upgrade at this point. The dps increase will be massive.

This one is offline right but I would probably go for it.

You just replace EDWA with Div Hypothermia in it.
If you're rich, get the a 3red 3blue one or a 4 red one for ~10 ex.

You're currently not having any source of exposure in your build which is why your dmg feels low on bosses. Bosses have inherent 50% elemental resistances and EE cuts that in half. Then curses and our mastery solves the rest.

It will also give 2 more levels for your Golems which is a big dps upgrade.

You could also try running the new Hydrosphere tech we're trying out.
There's no PoB for it yet but you can read about it in the previous page. It's basically a double dmg increase for single target.

It requires you to sacrifice a socket slot though (Probably Desecrate)

Enjoyed the build, unfortunately it's not really possible to get the Lords with equilibrium and the right colours unless you sit and snipe and get really lucky, unfortunately I'm not really able to dedicated that much time, makes it all abit tricky.

Hit abit of dps wall aswell, mapping isn't too bad but conquerors and guardians are painful. Have about 10ex need to work out the best way to invest it.

Alright so did blighted t16s and corrupted t16 maps with

4x crabs

I must say that on this build it does not impress me. At least not with crab version perhaps with SO it would feel better.
Spoiler
I got high roll so i'll profit on resale but I recommend stygian vise untill u can afford mageblood
the jewels you can socket in those are just way bigger boost than praying for 1 or 2 good buffs per map to pop, I also die more now without my rare belt
You can even nearly cap your chaos res with something like
+ clusters
just craft chaos res hybrid on it. And that is hard to beat even if you feel really lucky with shield/life rare modifiers which are actually extremely rare find in maps.

The only buff that is kinda nice to get is speed one, but crabs fail to keep up so you need to stop running anyway(maybe agressive would solve that). And GGG made the flicker-strike rares to spawn everywhere a lot so you'll sometimes really hate it. (you get the buff and then it does randomly teleport you around for 20seconds, so far i got it in every map except blight) It was less noticably bad experience on my cyclone and flameslinger characters that were very fast and did not care about positioning.


tl;dr You'll be better off upgrading just about anything else first in my opinion.
It is still great for deep delving where you get ton of rare buffs for sure, i do not delve much myself.


Also thanks for all the feedback and info about ehm watery whirl(did not try it yet) but it sounds op for uber blight. the only place where i feel my dps lacking.
I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay,
And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today!
