Are Zombiemancer builds dead?
I've been away for a while, but i always liked playing zombiemancers with Mon'tregul's Grasp and The Baron. I don't see any of those builds in the latest build guides, so ... are these no longer valid endgame builds?
It'd make me very sad if so ... thanks. Last bumped16 сент. 2020 г., 15:22:42

You should maybe look on it with a different perspective.
Zombies/Skeletons just went from utterly broken some patches ago down to just good. Are there better options in the Minion slot, yes spectres are far better with the right investment, or Golems also, but this doesn't mean they are dead or to weak for endgame (you can still pull it off with the right investment like with most other builds). Just don't play Mons Grasp and use a good +1 Minion wand or a 2hd weapon with + levels to socketed gems or even a queens escape, they are all far better. The biggest problem with pure zombies is most of the time just that you can't keep them alive in some bossfights (pure single target is better with skeletons in my opinion).

Zombiemancers are still very good, BUT...
Spectres do more damage than zombies SO.... Flavor of the Moment says zombies are dead. (However absurd that idea, its what many believe, the very best build is the only good build.) What I like to do, is combine zombie dps and spectre dps, as opposed to having support spectres, or in the meta builds, where spectres do all the dps, and zombies are 1 link meat sheilds. Here is my build for spectre-zombie dps. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2883137 Последняя редакция: Odif#4251. Время: 12 сент. 2020 г., 18:47:29

Go Spectres and Golems, until they nerf them.

Zombies aren't dead.
:>

Yes there are. They die a lot in boss fights. Normally you have trouble re-summoning them because you reserve all you mana to buff them. Raising zombies also takes a lot of time, creating corpses and a slow spell cast. Not preferable in a boss fight.
"You are right, they are undead. :) |

Definitely not worth playing Zombie builds at the moment. Hoping for some 3.12 buffs

Minion buffs, that would be hillarious XD

They are not dead, they are undead.

Zombies are fine. Had zero probs during harvest. And they never die on me. I may be a bit more min-maxed than most, but it doesn't take too much to keep them alive
