Since Syndicate Operatives are most likely to be nerfed (bug fixed) which spectre you suggest in the spectre focused build for endgame? Slave Drivers will die at endgame so I'm looking for a spectre for a good overall mapping and bossing without specializing for maps/bosses. Are Redemption Sentries still "OK" or you suggest another? Without knowing the new league monsters ofc.

I know some people like to get Ravenous Horde, but I think just save oil until DA.

Clear Oil, Clear Oil, Clear Oil (+30 to Dex)
Clear Oil, Sepia Oil, Sepia Oil (+30 to Dex)

If I go spectres I will likely be Frost Auto Scout and I think that is your answer. I played Barnite Preacher last league and if you didn't have fast projectiles support then mapping was painful. With FAS you can probably be lazy and only swap out a gem for harder bosses. With BP I was swapping out 2 gems for mapping and bossing.

2 gems for FAS as well.

When I made first showcase, I didn't use Pierce support. But after using SO and going back to FAS I realised mapping without pierce feels bad. So for best mapping you really need GMP + Pierce.

A mid tier option (before high end +1 spectre body armour) is 6link Lioneye's Vision for Pierce support. I used it in early/mid-league Deli league for RS.

BP and TT are really interesting because GGG put reduced speed on the ball lightning. So has more base damage than player skill and more DPS because travel time!

But yes, it's very painful if you want to do speed mapping. I think for anyone who is OK with slower pace, they are a good spectre.

The shotgun effect isn't a bug btw. It's because they have 3 projectile sources (Secret Police Dagger 1, Secret Police Dagger 2, Secret Police Dagger 3). So when you use Volley or GMP the 3 projectile sources can overlap, so they get 3x shotgun effect.

Usually monsters have just one ability and it will say 'has additional projectiles'. For example: EK on phantasms.

SD is still the best for overall and no gem swap. If you don't mind losing some DPS, maybe use minion life medium cluster instead of aura with vengeful commander. Then you have 6x feasting fiends and 6x renewal. 2.4% leech, 60% life + 72% life (first travel nodes 12%), 6% regen.


I also recommend Spectres & Spiders build for balanced mapping/bossing. Spiders for mapping, spectres for bossing. The spiders are always fast, so just choose spectre to match for mapping or bossing. It's my main build every league since 3.8. I actually don't use pure spectre build :P

I finished league with v2 build: https://youtu.be/Io0VgHpN5iM
(PoB is the same as on forum page1 but showcase video is new)

Why the changes from your 3.12 guide? specifically skeles and carnage chieftains?

I use the 3.12 levelling guide for ziz gauntlet. All the minions died easily because early bosses do aoe damage and early minions are low HP. I tried a few different things too. plain skele, skele + MI, SRS.

SRS + MI was the strongest option. I was able to get pretty far even though I'm not HC player.

I also retested carnage chieftains spectres in normal league and actually they all died in Dominus fight. So I decided to just use SRS + zombie for Act 1 - 4 because if they die. it doesn't matter.

I also tested tanky spectres like Gorgol Alpha but they are kinda bad and still died.

So just wait until Act 5 to get SD.

I am wondering how tanky the Build (page one) is compared to a Juggernaut i.e.. Just to get an idea.
I always liked playing as a (casual and SSF) necro, level 95 and shaper down my best casual results so far. But I always struggelt with unpredicted spike damage that just kills you in a splitsecond out of nowhere.
99% of the content is a piece of cake and then one nasty endgame Boss or delve encounter and BOOM.
