The crab is my preferred spectre. High life and aggressive

What type of shield would be a good end game goal for this build? Or is going with two weapons almost necessary? I'm rolling this build as my dedicated boss killer and a lot of the end game stuff feels incredibly deadly so I was wondering if this could be built more tankier with a shield

Lioneye's, The Surrender, or a rare, harvest crafted shield with variations of block/spell block/max chaos res/max ele res/life on block + life and resistances would be good. You would look to pair it with bone offering and rumi's in that case.

Personally, I prefer to just go guns ablazing. I've uploaded some bossing gameplay...keep in mind skeleton warriors and archers both deal more damage than skeleton mages in my opinion (outside of vaal summon skeletons). I will mention that my fight with the breachlords did not go so well...block (with life on hit), especially against Tul's projectiles would be a good idea.

PoB at time of kill: https://pastebin.com/Nf8vZtWv

See the notes to the PoB. The fire & cold version in the guide should be more DPS than the version I am currently playing.

What I decide to do next depends on whether the helm craft is successful - if it is, I'll try to push the mage archetype some more with currency. Otherwise I'll likely go back to warriors or archers since frankly...the mages are absolutely atrocious for party play (-20 FPS for everyone).

Two maven kills so far, but I am so embarrassingly bad at the memory game and last phase that I’ll have to record those later...

Had my first AG death of the league, it was in a 10 boss fight in Lira Arthain. Not completely sure what killed it, but it was probably a bleed effect of some kind.

Something to be aware of.

I've only done about 50 maps so far, but I haven't seen a harvest grove yet.

Sorry to hear that! I read that on Reddit last night as well. I think I’ll add a disclaimer for ten way boss fights too. And to never compete acid caverns ever just in case.

Oof. Try to finish Haewark and Proxima’s maven quests to unlock better chances of harvests. Otherwise post your username and hopefully someone here or in 6666 can help you get the crabs. I won’t be home for 8 hours unfortunately.

This league has me not wanting to play at all,with so few build to play in hardcore. So atm i spec into skeleton mage but, running t1 atm, not too impressed.

So my honest question,with limited gear, ssfhc, do the build would be able to perform well? What variant would you use ? I mean ive been playing for 10y in hc so i kinda knew what i will do but im kinda new to the skelly thing, i was just expecting them to be somewhat much better for t1 casual play..Kinda dont see how i can even run red tier lol.

Yes i am not running your variant atm,just asking, if you think its worth a shot.

Edit: worth mentionning i got the triad glove ready, and got a femur of the saint i kinda want to use atm, at leats for early map ( max block with block node,or close enough) and the +2 and minion dmg is kinda nice. Got the skele mage jewel aswell but,feels pure skele + triad ice is better? mage really suck atm.
