Wrecker, I have one small suggestion for the guide.

You spend some time talking about how Bone Armor will cause another key press and when and how to use it in the Gameplay section of the guide.

In the spirit of the stress free play style of the guide, I would recommend removing that verbiage and simply tell people to bind Bone Armor to the left mouse key and never worry about it again.

Whew, I was a busy boy today.

1) I got the 4th ascendancy finally (the last trial was alluding me). I picked Commander of Darkness since I am still loving Queens Hunger.

2) Commander of Darkness opened up some budget upgrades for me as I did not need to worry as much about resists:

a) Picked up a Convocating Wand with some minion stats
b) Fixed my dex so that I could free up a point on the tree
c) Bumped my zombies from 8 to 10

3) Anointed Grave Pact on amulet

4) Got my effective life over 5500


This should see me easily into early red maps. Every penny I save from this point on will go towards hopefully getting a 6 link Queens Hunger, which I am going to need to progress into the late red tier maps.

Congrats!

I too am trying out Queen's Hunger since my garden had a correct item level craft for a 5 link item.

I spec'd out of Mistress of Sacrifice and took Commander of Darkness which let me swap out some heavy resist rings for delved dropped minion damage ring.

A Quickening Covenant dropped for me so I socketed it to the left of the witch starting point. This meant I had to spec out of Quick Recovery since it becomes transformed (slower minions = boo). Traded the Quick Recovery wheel entirely for the jewel socket and finished off the Written in Blood wheel instead. The percent life and energy shield paired nicely with high energy shield of Queen's Hunger.

When I level some more I'll probably take the 2 small nodes of Quick Recovery back.

I traded small minion life & life regen node to right of Death Attunement and minion life & ele resist node from Indomitable Army for a medium cluster jewel which I socketed next to Hex Master that has the following:
Added Small Passive Skills grant: Minions have 12% increased maximum Life
Added Small Passive Skills also grant: +5% to Fire Resistance
1 Added Passive Skill is Dread March

Minions have 10% increased maximum Life
Minions have 10% increased Movement Speed
Minions have 10% additional Physical Damage Reduction
Minions have +10% to Chaos Resistance

1 Added Passive Skill is Feasting Fiends

Feasting Fiends
Minions have 10% increased maximum Life
Minions deal 10% increased Damage
Minions Leech 0.4% of Damage as Life

1 Added Passive Skill is a Jewel Socket

Filled the jewel socket w/ an abyss eye that was life, attributes, and some regen while moving for me.

I might try rolling something else on the cluster jewel once the changes to jewel sockets for cluster jewels happen.

While hunting for a weapon for this build I ended up picking up a rune dagger w/ +1 to spell skills and crafted added minion damage for half the cost of a corresponding convoking wand with the same type of stats. Been crafting convoking wands and it has not been going super great - though I have now learned a lot more about crafting. I'm having fun with it so there's that even if the crafts don't come out how I'd like em.

Oh and since I now have a dagger instead of a wand I swapped shield charge for whirling blades and now I'm getting less stuck in the environment. It's just a few chromatic orbs to switch between the 2 gems if I want to swap back.

Currently doing tier 12-14 to get the 5th round of watchstones and it's going fine at a moderate pace.

The armor comes with 2 veiled mods. These mods can include the +1 to zombies and +1 to skeletons and looking at the prices on the trading site, these mods are not coming at a premium so definitely keep a look out for these mods if you decide to grab a 6 link.

That is incorrect. Chest Armor can't roll +1 zombies/skeletons since 3.10
Only helms can.
