It's under leveling heading in the original post, or below:

20 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQN
40 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQP
60 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQS
80 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQU
100 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQW
110 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQX (If you have good resists on gear)
110 points - www.poeurl.com/bWQ7 (If you need resists from the passive tree)

Hi SuperKevlar,

I suggest these changes:

- Move your skeletons into the tabula rasa, and the zombies into the queens escape. 6L skellies are better defensively and offensively than the zombies.

- As soon as possible, get a 5 link body armour with decent defences. The tabula rasa is great for levelling, but having some life and armour makes any positioning mistakes in maps much less costly. Sacrifice some damage for the defences, it's worth it.

- Get a 5 link queens escape. To save currency, collect full items sets of unidentified items in maps and trade for chaos orbs at vendors.

- Get some life on your boots. You should be able to get the same resists, plus decent life and movespeed for about 1 chaos on poe.trade

- Map a bit slower than what you see on the videos until you get decent items. Send the skellies ahead first, pause, then run. Map completion time will still be fast enough until you get better gear. You should get hit only rarely playing this way, and can use life flasks to sustain, so you won't need high life regen.

- Drop essence worm for a ring with good defensive stats. Put the purity of elements in where clarity is.

- Mapping with level 16 and 17 gems makes it tough. You're a little bit a victim of your own success - I'm guessing you got to maps fast. Spend an hour doing easier maps to get level 18 gems, you'll really notice the difference.

Keep Cast When Damage Taken at level 1
Immortal call at level 1
Phase run at level 6 if you have low dexterity and want to manually cast it
Phase run at level 1 if you want it to be auto cast when you take damge
Phase run at level 20 if you have enough dexterity for a bit of extra movespeed.

If you want to have some fun, put a flame dash with CWDT :)

Hi, thanks for the great guide! I’m farming Uber elder with indigon pp hiero and rf jugg, and planning to farm Uber elder with a necro in flashback since necro has smoother (if not smoothest) progression in the game and I love the feeling.
Seems physical minions are the way to go Uber and baron is OP (and cheap!) which looks promising, I just want to know can your zombies survive in the Uber fight or they die instantly so you gonna cast skeles constantly to do any damage? Thanks!

Almost certainly your zombies will die. Skellies for damage. Note: This build is certainly not a specialist uber elder farmer!

Can confirm, zombies, AG and specters will die during uber elder. Pretty impossible to keep them in the correct range for elder's attacks and out of shaper's balls/beam. The fight is difficult as you basically just try and dodge everything and spam cast skellies every chance you get to stand still for a moment. I haven't managed to beat the encounter yet but hope to try again this weekend.

I'm really enjoying this build.

If I wanted to fit a movement skill in, something like Leap Slam or Flame Dash because I like to make my z-axis transitions, which one is best and how do I fit it in the gems while losing the least functionality? It probably needs to be supported by Faster Attacks / Faster Casting because it otherways looks like the action is being done underwater.
