PoE builds similar to Final Update Guardian Skeleton Mages League Start Build Guide - PoE 3.22 Trial of the Ancestors

I’m sure it’s not a secret but I stumbled upon this through pure RNG elegant hubris drop. Wanted to share w the squad as it was a big boon to my build. 132480 coins for Victario As you’ll see in POB: - 3x slum lords (80% minion dmg each—240%) -robust diet : 10% max life -superiority : 12% aura effect (there’s actually a 2nd one if you want to use the points to path to it ) -gleaming legion: 80% armor I used impossible escape at The Agnostic to max point efficiency. Here’s my POB:

I'm working on upgrading my Skeleton Mage setup now that I have a real budget for upgrades. I have about 25 Ex in the bank and another 10-12 Ex worth of stuff I'm trying to sell for further upgrades. I started off following a leveling guide and now I'm trying to adjust to follow the more popular builds I see on POE Ninja but I know I should make some adjustments Current POB: Possible upgrades: Swap the belt for Darkness Enthroned and a couple of 20% minion damage if used recently jewels. But, that makes balancing resists harder. I'm running a pretty cheap Anim

Main difference on other skeleton mages is that this build WILL use the new unique belt The Burden of Truth. Otherwise this is a mayorly sub-par and not swag build.

This is my first time playing Skeleton Mages. I really like it. The only drawback is the slow walking speed, which can be upgraded to rare boots, but sacrificing +1 skele. My current POB: My build is nowhere great, but at 9 mil dps, 15 mil with Vaal it serves my purpose so far. I believe I have only spent less than 20 ex. I'm doing Logbooks + Grand Design Atlas focusing on Expedition juiced with Sentinels. Nice currency. I guess I want to try most content including sim 30. I'm unsure on the next major progression. I'm very frugal spender, upgrading only when ne

Last night I hit 98, never been past 96 before and really feeling like I really want to push for 100. Running juiced Cemetary/Strand, but maybe once every 20 maps or so I'm taking a death and it hurts. It seems to only ever be hard elemental hits such as getting too many flameblasts from beyond bosses, or stray volatiles.

I have 40ex pure right now, could probably make another 10 easy by selling off other currency. Thinking Awakened Spell
