ouch....why GGG hate spectres

It's okay, now it's not only Spectres that's pepeg.
Now all minions will be bad :)

Could be worse for Spectres though. Sure, they're getting nerfed(lol).
But atleast you're not a skelly mage build. The gem itself lost ~75% dmg which is insane and that doesn't even count the nerf to Power/frenzy charges et.c.

Honestly might look into trying to make a Elementalist Flame Golem build or something this league. It got some heavy buffs but you know what they say.
1000% increase to nothing is still nothing.

@spaceace7373

why do you have white sockets? do you swap with blue gems ?
i swap pierce and volley for hypothermia and critical damages on boss

i would say +2 durations gems



paid it 65ex last week and avaibility is very poor, 100ex in standard

ghastly jewels with +damage when used mions skill + cast speed especielly on the belt. have that on all my ghasly

10% cast spped on weapon is low, but will cost a lot for a quiet few up

BUT

do you really want to invest a lot at 1 week of the end of season ??

i don t speak about the nerf ...

I don't get it either... I don't think Pure Spectres have been that viable end game for a handful of leagues now.

I don't even know what to say.

I don't get it, mage skeletons were nerfed by 75% overall or they removed the 50% added damage from the gem and that gave a 25% damage reduction overall.

It's time for flicker holy relic and other unusable but powerful bullshit.

DOTs now a way to go also.



But minions are now, as i see, pretty dead. Like in good old days, where we are using Frost and Fire sentinels only.

It's gain 50% more "added damage"

So if you have +100 cold damage, then the skele gain 150 added cold damage. but most people don't even use flat damage because skeles have high base damage.
eg. skele mage @level 25 has 2300-3400 base cold damage.


25% damage reduction is the main nerf.

The way I see these changes... With the more important minion stats like + level being on gear I really don't see the passive tree or acesdency really mattering as much anymore. GGG has for the most part removed/nerfed any notable passives and ascedency for minions to the point where they are no longer build defining.

I don't even think 25 is that bad... The build will still be viable but won't likely be anywhere near the meta.

My biggest issue is Spectres... They haven't been very good for awhile and they keep getting less and less viable with each change.

Even DOT won't be a big buff.
Ignite and bleed doesn't stack.
Minion's DPS is usually low damage x high APS.

Arakaali spiders seems OK because no more 50% dot penalty. But poison duration is half. They lose the 25% phys gained as chaos though.
