What do you think about this as a very cheap solution before getting Clayshaper? Its major drawback is obvious, we're losing 30% of our effective health, but hey, when you just started running white maps, it seems like a decent option.

[3.14] Build update:

After playing alot of T16 Ultimatums and getting some feedback from other players I feel like the full glass cannon route of the build doesn't work as well for ultimatums as it has done in past leagues. For this reason I've decided to update the low budget and medium budget builds to make them way more tankier without sacrificing dps. These changes mainly include flask changes and the use of the Keystone Passive Glancing Blows.

When watching the videos, keep in mind that I'm actively trying to position myself poorly close to mobs to actually tank some hits so you can see the difference. When I wasn't running this setup, oneshots were common in Ultimatums, now they're very rare and usually a biproduct of incompetent dashes into huge packs when Convocation is on cooldown.
All the ultimatums in the gameplay footage were chain recorded in one go and I rarely die after the setup change.

Personally I've sold all my mediums.
Sold them for ~3.5 ex each which is ridiclous. People don't seem to know that you can craft them with reforge crit with a success rate of ~20%.
I've sold more than 5 of those medium clusters so far.

Could you give details ?
Didn't play past leagues, how can we craft those cluster jewels ?

Get a 68+ Ilvl aura medium cluster.
When you get a reforge crit (Chaos Orb harvest craft that adds crit mods) use it on the cluster.

Precise commander is the only mod that can roll so it will be rolled 100% of the time.
Vengeful commander has a very high seed so it'll come up frequently.

"

It's 1 in 16 chance to roll Vengeful commander. What are those 20% you are talking about?

Glad you posted this. I've been thinking about this type of move myself, however, doing it a bit differently. Got my hands on a +1 corrupted Skin of the Loyal, so I decided to pull some passive points from the tree (Sacrifice and Spiritual Command pre cluster) and towards glancing blows instead with Rumis:

Try it out and report back how you think it's working out :-)

How often do you die on juiced T16 maps with 4.5k hp ? And how expensive is Clayshaper at the start (day 1) of a league ?

Unfortunately that wand reserves 30% of our life which is very dangerous.
We already run with a very modest healthpool and reducing it by 30% open us up for alot of random oneshots unfortunately.
Clayshaper is only 1 chaos so everyone should be able to afford it while that wand costs ~1 alch or so. It's barely any difference.

There's ALOT of information about the spectres we use.
You can read about them in:

IV. General Build Mechanics > Offensive Capabilities = AoE Clearing

You can also find more information on them in the Additional Information section.
