My 5 cents:


- very robust, flexible and solid build, idk what to play next league cuz everything else seems weak;

- in my expirience you need abyss jewels with +minion resistance in evey slot, otherwise your Animate guardian will die to uAtziri or Shaper (plus lvl 4 Empower, lvl 21 minion life) or you can put in lvl 21 minion resistances gems in link;

- shield with health recovery on block makes you literally immortal (ofc you need spell block on shield+amulet). you cant die as long as Bone offering is up. if you can get shock enemies on block on top of that - it's gg (probably VERY expensive option) but not really necessary. other 2 desirable stats is health and armour;

- Soul of Gruthkul & Soul of Solaris;

- Solar guards for mapping and all bosses up to t16. Guardians and above you would like to have 1 Wicker man and 3 Tukohamas vanguard (you can do t16 bosses with Solar guards but its not that comfortable as with Tukohamas vanguard);

- Mana leech shaper gloves are nice;

That's about it.


P.S.
You can't do Virici's missions :D

Happy to report back that I killed shaper pretty easily. He killed me once. Thanks so much for this build and thanks to everyone for the help this past week. I couldn't have done it without yall. And for the ones who said you cant kill the shaper with leveling gear, well I did it.

Ok, your gear seems pretty low end, except 6L vis mortis that's 5ex.

Section "4 - Gem Links" says that "Chance to Ignite" can be used to support Spectres.

But Chance to Ignite skill gem can only support skills that hit. Scorching ray totems used by Tukohama Vanguard do not hit, they apply damage over time debuff.

I checked on my totem build. Chance to Ignite indeed does not support Scorching Ray (neither Spell-totem not self-cast).

So, is this a mistake in build?

Well, it *might* be. OTOH, Natt has done some pretty exhaustive testing, showing that gems that *should* work, in some cases, do not, and vice versa.

The only way to know for sure would be to test it... which I might do if I ever lose my spectres. But I'm certainly not going to go through the hassle of borrowing a shaper portal and resummoning if I don't have to.

If you feel like doing the testing, summon a single TV and kill Avarious Reassembled - Act 10, IIRC several times. Record how long it takes without that gem. Then add that gem and try it several more times. Compare the times, and let us know.
