POE lets you design 1000s of builds for every single playstyle. I think we found the only two numbnuts in the whole community who complains about too many options and too much comfort lol! Cool build, trying it out soon
Like me trying to get harvest Spector, they always despawn before I can raise them. Just have Descarte save all corpses when you encounter them and you assign them to the gem it self like like a sub equipment slot of corpses to that gem
I'm in the exact same situation right now! I've got lucky and casually found a perfect forest warrior on a day 3 of the league, and when I've been swapping my gear in Niko's location, I've got scammed in the same way! And now I farmed like a week of ritual farming and still cannot found it! Thank you for highlighting this issue <3
I did this too btw with a crappy dark marionette setup on ssf/priv league. I weapon swapped and had the spectres on my shield. Cheap lesson for me but yeah I shouldn’t have been running guardian blessing anyways probably on the char
Yup that one sucks but is avoidable and kind of makes sense if you count the game mechanics. I was frustrated because the way I lost them has no basis on logic -.- To be honest I think GGG have just been lazy with coding these, none of these cooked ways of losing them are good game design
it happened a few times for me aswell when I would expediently unequip my amulet or something so the gear they were socketed in was no longer usable, however last time this happened both of my itemized specters (perfect dark marionets) did drop their bodies and I was able to re-summon them. idk why this happens nor why under the same conditions it stopped happening last time, but I'm not about to waste 50c finding out lol
It's tragic yup, I also take precaution by only doing gear changes in town and making sure bone offering isn't socketed. Decided to take a break until this is sorted
Man that sucks I wish the itemized ones came back as items on the ground instead I lost a perfect tiger the other day from the trigger wand and it really makes you lose motivation
I swapped from Grave intentions + Energy Leech support to Phantasm + 5% life regen when a minion dies to save passives on my tree and its a great tech.
Dude, wtf with pob? Why do you have part of the gems less than level 20, some of them is a 7-link. You have 11 different auras and part of them are below level 20, and they are partially duplicated in different links. In addition to the main link, there are 2 more in which 5 gems. Where are you going to link them? You never would be that much sockets even with hungry loop. It's not the "comfiest one" - it's terrible
yo i just started enjoying ur build but rly hate the skellies, do u think i will be able to do tier 17 later in the ssf with the zombie+ golem? or any other no skelly way
it should be okay, they nerfed t17 and we made it work last league so it should be fine this league. We also have a lot of new toys to play with including spectres and new bases, so I think it will be fine
I read this on every single guide I saw, but this really is the best guide to easily get the fire cape. I still used to rotation maps on the wiki to make it even easier. I made it in my first try. Thank you so much! :)
For t16: - % less life recovery - less block chance - less cooldown of skills. - Avoid poison Everything else you can run, but it depends where you are at in the build. For example, if you don't have a lot of damage or defences then you will want to avoid other map mods that will kill you
It definitely can be at first, but if you break it down into smaller chunks it becomes a lot easier. For example, if you want your minions to do more damage, you search for things that give them more damage. Over time you just get better at knowing what is better than other things.
Heyo, I'm not sure what's preventing you from completing them so I can't really answer what the solution is. But I generally play it safe, but I also expect to use at least 1 portal per map
Heyo, this is the official video I have made. There are some more recent changes that I have made, you can always see my profile at poe.ninja/builds/necropolisssf/character/Ayxera/PsnCGolemLOGIN?i=0&search=type%3Ddepthsolo%26name%3Dpsn ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Mw3vs2FnQCc.html
Love your soft spoken voice matey, also enjoying the Carrion golem stuff BECAUSE!! It was my favourite build of all time, when u could just bang on the +5% max res armour & 2 cold iron points and let it rip. But it fell off so hard both in mitigation and dps I gave up on it completely, this has given me some inspiration to give it another shot as poison. Could you reply with some key notes that you think are absolutely mandatory for the build? Access to poison, do's and dont's & how you feel mitigation ends up being in the late game. If you don't want to that's also fine, good luck on the build grind mate, very cool!
Hello, a question like that will have me replying to your comment several times as I think of stuff so I'm sorry for the spam. You'll be happy to know that the build is versatile in that if you must, you can swap to a brass dome. Of course, you lose a significant amount of damage but some times doing less damage and actually surviving is good. Examples are an expensive map with lots of crit multi. This league we are hoping to get around that with tattoos however. Dps wise I'm going to be honest and say this league I feel we really want tank for all the t17s, and so we are doing a lot less damage than I'd normally aim for. That being said, my pob does include tree/gearing for a dual wield set up that focuses solely on damage and can reach 50m on late game. Mitigation seems quite strong but also temperamental. I can tank ghosted exiles in t17 with delirium, granted I do use molten shell to do so, but then things like Minatour can kill me. Regardless its still one of the tankiest characters I've ever made, and I've spent a long time trying to figure out if there's a better way to be tanky and not lose damage and couldn't find it my self, but if anyone knows a way please do tell! Mandatory stuff for the build is indeed 100% chance to poison but there's a few ways to get this and all of them are very easy to obtain. Other than that there's not really anything mandatory, like, I even started this character from day 1 act 1 so can just do that. That being said if you want the character to feel playable rather than shit, you want about 5k life and a +2 wand and +2 helmet. You can go lower life as you get more damage and survival.
Some do and don'ts, well always make sure your animate guardian has 45% additional resistances including when he is not in range of purity of elements and necromancer ascendency if you take it. This is because curse+exposure does happen. The good news is the AG gear is fairly common and/or easy to craft so its not the worst thing if he dies. Avoid doing t17s with union of souls, elemental penetration, massive crit multi. Also avoid taking ag to uber maven and maybe uber sirus too if inexperienced.
Overall I've always preferred this skill over any other even if it doesn't share the same power of say coc dd or mana stackers. In ssf also the ceiling is significantly lower than in trade, and so it caps out around 20m dps with a good ehp, or 50-60m with enough ehp to play and die a few times. In trade it's way different, you can easily reach 100m on a 100 divine budget, 200m+ on the high end maybe even more. I'm not even sure if poison is the meta for trade league, it's probably not but in ssf it absolutely is.
@@Cat_vs_Jad Dope thanks for the replies man, I am going to sit in POB tonight and try come up with something if I can make anything (even if trade league required) I'll be sure to let you know and send it over.
@kizzagaming6523 I've done all the work for you already brother. I have pob for phys, or poison in ssf. Trade league has access to crazy gear so that's another story
Thanks for the videos. I've been following your build and making my own tweaks and its been a blast. Finally killed a t17 boss and been making steady progress in the league. Keep up the great work!
@@Cat_vs_JadI take Arcane Guarding at the top left of the tree for more energy shield from Aegis Aurora and to increase spell block. I am also considering switching body armour but I'm not entirely sure if losing the added chaos damage from the covenant will be too much of a damage loss. Do you know of any alternatives or is the covenant really the best for this build?
Heyo, unfortunately this isn't something viable in SSF and so I am not too familiar with how this looks. I can recommend looking at PoE Ninja for this. Make sure to only follow builds which swords have all of the following: +1 socketed gems, socketed skills deal 40% more damage, and increased critical strikes, and increased critical strike multiplier. Faster attacks is acceptable in place of bench/veiled minion attack speed. Sword must have 1 of any of these too: Brutality, Multistrike, Ruthless, or Melee physical damage. Anything less than this is not a finished product.
Update: I just checked poe ninja for builds that I would follow, and couldn't find a single one for this league :( This is a profile I found from last league: poe.ninja/builds/affliction/character/편통통이/Affliction_Necro?i=1&search=uniqueitems%3DThe%2BSquire%26class%3DNecromancer%26skills%3DSummon%2BCarrion%2BGolem%2Bof%2BHordes The downside is this build uses tech from last league, the only difference is the spectres and charms give him auras so you have to work around that, but this is what I consider to be the peak of carrion golem.
How can you apply a third curse without going whispers of doom? Or a second one without windscream for that matter. Am I missing something here? Im at red maps at the moment, Ive been very unlucky with the carrion gem, I've gotten 4 of scavanging :(
Lab is painchamp, I hate it. But you can spam merciless lab, or if you have any offerings just do those. But yeh gl, probably the worst part about any build in SSF imo :P
Started my carrion journey in ssf today, I wonder if phys might be stronger than poison without the covenant. I haven't looked at pob at all yet, do you have any insight of this?
Poison is easy to get with either dendrobate or a pair of gloves with chance to poison support, or a 5/6 link with ctp. Focus on harvest reforge abyss jewels. I think Wither is too strong of a damage multiplier to pass on, so even if you don't go poison chaos is still obsurdly strong
Physical = tankier minions, slightly easier gearing (until end game). Tank set up doesn't get enough damage for it to be considered viable imo. For dual wield wand it's still really good, can do about 35 to 45m on proper ssf gear. 10-15m damage at best. Can get more damage if you sacrifice defence but I think this is a waste of time and should just do dual wield instead. Poison is much squishier minions (some times an issue) but a lot of free damage, making the tank set up much more viable as you won't be hitting stuff with wet newspapers. About 45-55m on end game ssf dps set up, or 15-25m tank set up.
@@Cat_vs_Jad gotcha, I will start as poison as dendrobate/covenant isn't that rare to get this league and if I stumble around with enough currency to make a +2 chest with a adorned or something like that I might switch to phys if I feel that survivability of the minions are too low, or poison with dual wield of whatever but time will tell. Thanks, you def deserve more subs, keep it up.
IMPORTANT: If you are planning on doing Ubers, t17 maps, or anything that is very likely to kill your Animate Guardian, do NOT swap your Ancient Suffering Spectre to a different one. Whilst it is theoretically better dps to have AG apply despair or temporal chains on hit, there are situations where you will not have him around and thus your damage will be SEVERELY lacking.
Thank you for putting this out, I was a big fan of phys carrion before it got nerfed into oblivion. At the moment playing SRS in ssf but will definitely play around with your pob. Have you looked into the sis or uid sword instead of a wand? Survivability of the minions might get whack tho.
Hey Chrollos, I think I have seen you on POE Ninja! As for SIS or UID sword, I have looked into it and according to my calculations a +2 wand does end out being more damage
However it is not as simple as that, there are some factors to consider which might make the sword better in some scenarios. If you don't need chance to poison, you could go all in on dps ghastly jewels for example. The other issues is fitting in the Envy aura some how, we are already really tight on aura reservation as it is, but it is possible on the DPS set up. Also, the wither is already coming for free from necro ascendency
Also we have to consider that the wands allow us to get another spectre, and in some cases an additional zombie which is quite a lot of extra damage on its own. As it stands, poison zombies have much lower health than phys version, so you are right in we will have issues with their life. Also we can get attack speed on wand, which is really good for life leech
@@Cat_vs_Jad I usually went spell suppression and was scaling both armour and evasion with double wands but no block, 3 large 3/35 clusters with 5 medium iirc. It was pretty much a glass cannon, it could take a hit but as the dps went thru the roof it was rarely an issue since there was never anything on the screen that was alive lol. I think you are correct here, wand is probably the play for the levels and attack speed for both you and your minions. I guess a variant could be double wands with dual wield block, I've never tried that earlier.
Man, do you have a pob for this? I'm trying to make a Carrion Golem again but its not scaling damage correctly x_x, i'm soffering on T5 map and its sucks
