Odif is back! Grats!

Odif mate, last time 3-4 leagues ago I have made your build with skittles mages with zombies as shield around, right now I see spectres and guardians, do zombies are not reliable any more? I got lvl 100 that league pretty easy in 2 weeks from start of league. Does zombies are not working?

Also we can take 2 wands for +2 to increase the dmg right?

I'm no newbie but I started as skeletons last time and switched to golems when I had some currency. However, I really liked skeletons when I played them for like 3 days last league and was considering starting as skele (mages) again.

I've never played them past the very early league start, so when you say "all content", what can you realistically do with skele mages? Like are the maven invitations and A8 Sirus doable? Was thinking of playing them until I can do something expensive this time.

Edit: it's a bit of a silly question but just to clarify: I don't expect "all content" to be very literal anymore with Simulacrum wave 30 and blight ravaged maps etc. being added!

Last league Skel Mages were one of the top end game builds.
It was one of the popular 30 simulacrum farmers.

Of my 3 builds, it has the highest damage ceiling.

What other Spectres can you use beside Carnage Chieftain?

In Scourge, I was using Carnage Chieftain + Host Chieftain + Pale Seraphim Scourge Mob that cast something like Aspect of Spider webs on enemy. Since Scourge isn't going core, I assume that Pale Seraphim is no longer available in Archnemesis?

Just for Curiosity, which are the other top endgame builds that compete with skellies in simulacrum farmers?

In 3.16 Skel mages were one of the top overall builds for end game content.
In particular they are amazing for 30 sim.

Hi Odif. I wanna start your build these league. For your consideration Von Vikton made a skelle mage build last league and in his words was one of the most powerfull builds out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3hB2DdfiY4

My only concern is the prices of the dead reckoning jewel. Someone says in the comments it was like 100 c first weeks and without the jewel the build is unplayable and clear ultra mega slow with just phys skellies. What do you think?
