Thanks for the suggestions. I will give the specters a go. Just wondering if they are strong enough without any support gems to back them up?

As for the mana nodes I actually need them to be able to cast summon skeletons. Without them I don't have enough mana. Temporal Chains, Enfeeble and Flesh and Stone auras. With the mana nodes I am at 27 mana. Summon Skeletons needs 24. If I drop them I go below 24. Instant recovery though so can spam.

Another thing, on the right I honestly didn't see that I could drop those 2 minion attack speed nodes. Good idea lol. I have now taken quick recovery.

So I have fixed it up quite a bit. Now to go get specters and see how they work out. Why carnage apes? Is there a way to see the skills and stats of a specter? Sad to see my portal gem go but honestly portal scrolls are cheap I guess.

Edit: If you look at my chest weapon gloves and boots yo9u will see the modified build. Someone was talking about it a few pages back I gave it a go. It did help with my survivability quite a bit... but not enough.

Carnage apes add frenzy charges to you and your minions, they have 50k life UNSUPPORTED and rarely if ever die. Frenzy charges amp your minions as good as any node on the tree or any support gem. Host chieftians give power charges, it would be hard for anyone to crit because chance is so low, so maybe not needed. I would probably try 3 carnage chieftains and see if they keep you swimming in frenzy charges, they really do buff the minions considerably.

There is a node directly below Hex Master that gives you 4% reduced mana reserved, I also had to take it to run full physical. This could solve your problem and give you one more 5% life node as well :)

What your attempting is the mods for next leagues build, possibly. If it works roll with it! It seems solid, I only died to my own ignorance so good luck! I was walking through amped T16s effortlessly, granted I have some good gear in standard, but still. Either way it should get you to 90. Watch your play syle, take it easy, get familiar with delve and take that level 1% at a time if you have too! You can do it!

I don't know if you know about Path Of Building (POB). It allows you to import your character and modify EVERYTHING to adjust for max efficiency. It is an awesome tool, shows you life, regen, ES, armor, res, DPS, DPS breakdowns. EVERYTHING! You can look at minion stats, DPS, swap skill gems, change gear, change the whole tree, it's amazing.
Just google Path of Building, after you get that look for POB fork by local identity, it is a much better version, but you have to install POB first.

Good Luck!

I have 621 fusings, so I'll probably never use the recipe!
As usual, I bought the 6 link because A: I didn't have the recipe when I needed it and B: I would not have been able to afford the fusings!
The fusings are down in price now so If I do see a nice chest I may pick one up.
Especially a cheap single socket!

Yeah it is the build for next league. At first I thought it was working better but it isn't. Gonna change back and just go slow and minions kill everything before they see me. I have been stuck at 89 0% for too long.

You should still try specters, the more stuff you get on your team the better.
One thing I learned playing a Juggernaut, if you have 90% physical damage mitigation in this game, you RARELY die.
Witches can get about 40% IF they find a way to get Fortify.
That means you need at LEAST 7000 life/ES to survive in red maps.
There is no way to sugar coat it, you see it with syndicate encounters and it ramps up from there. Delirium rares hit like trucks too.

You have to really learn to dodge, and that is why I find a movement skill mandatory. That is why I like shield charge, it let's you flee and gives you fortify when supported. A true win/win.

When you are under the effect of phase run or elusive step, try not to use another skill because a new skill will cancel the effect. Stay somewhat invisible, get to safety and then drop skeletons. Always make sure you have max skeletons out at all times and just to get in the habit, every time you see Vaal summon skeletons ready, drop it on the next pack, it literally charges in 2 packs and most monsters can not handle the army. Make sure you are using Bone armor every time you are even near an enemy, I have a nasty habit of saving it until I need it... then forgetting to use it!

And if you are popping delirium mirrors and dying, then stop popping them for a while, or stay close to the mirror, the effect weakens near the mirror and at the end of the fog. There is a button to STOP the encounter at any time as well over your skill bar. If Syndicate is killing you, BLOCK them! Run other masters on your maps, even scarabs will block syndicate. Do what you can to survive. And if something is on the map that you don't like, just port out and start another one. I do this OFTEN!

I tried Wreckers Righteous Fire build a while ago, and cursed him and whined and cried and then went back, worked on my skills, hit 90 in spite of myself and THEN QUIT!
LOL, I knew it was a good build, just wasn't for me.

I have played MANY builds and SloMo is the most user friendly I have found:)

Good Luck!

EDIT: Keep your back to the wall, ALWAYS have a spot cleared out you can retreat to. Clear open maps from outer edges to the inside. Send skeletons in first... ALWAYS! When in hallways, let skeletons lead, always drop skeletons, they are disposable heroes! If you use shield charge, either find the weak guy and hit him, or make sure you pass through the pack, or try and hit the edge of it. And if you really struggle and really, really want 90, start skipping bosses, especially the ones you know you do not like. Clear the map and start another one, no shame in that.

EDIT: One last thing, do this for me, swap desecrate and phase run gems.
CWDT rotates clockwise from the gem. You may have more success with desecrate firing first. It may be superstition, but then again you may live longer!

Hey Saraneth!

I appreciate the honesty! What didn't you like about the build? It'd be good for me to have the feedback for next league's build.

I'll try to explain but you need to know my memory is quite shiet even for what's happened only a day or 2 ago.

TBH there were only a few things I disliked about it, and they were nothing major. First was just me being lazy. I hated having to choose between using shield charge and summoning skeletons. Since I changed back and only have to summon skeletons I feel a like more relaxed.
I also didn't like using Meat Shield over feeding frenzy. Having to stand in the middle of pack was just too dangerous. The thing that kills me 95% of the time are thing exploding. (Why does everything seem to bloody explode?) lol
I really liked Summon Phantasm Support. It felt strong and was fun to use. I wish I could incorporate it into my current build on its own. I also loved having enfeeble as an aura.
I'm sure there were more things I disliked about it but for the life of me I just cannot remember. Maybe that means they were only minor annoyances?

Spoiler

I had been following a SRS build which didn't work out too well, it had heaps of dps but was fragile. At 87 I had 2.5k hp and 3200 es and was struggling in T10. Found your build (the suggested 3.11 build) respeced and have had maybe 4 deaths from 87 to 91. Survivability is good but dps feels low, gems aren't fully leveled though. It looks like in the tree in POB you have still taken EE which I haven't. Currently doing ok in T14.

I no longer have shield charge since I changed back to the OP build. Also I didn't know about this clockwise thing. Cheers. So having desecrate over phase run should help?
I'll try to take your advice and see how far I can get. Thanks for the long replies. Putting a lot of work into them. :P
