I somehow made it to act 2 trying to follow your build but I have hit a wall, running around with 2 skeletons + 2 skeleton frost mages + frost bomb isn't cutting it versus mobs (mainly the 1st boss in act 2, the wolf thing on the hill), any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong please? also did you use archers instead of frost mages in the beginning levels? fwiw I'm level 17 witch and not played poe before, how do I go about summoning more frost mages, are there any easy way to increase the resource required to summon more?
I would only use Skellies you get from the scepter, which cost no spirit. And then use Frostbomb, Hypothermia (if already available) and an offering. And good supports for the Frostmages, like scattershot.
@@grindingcurrency thanks, skellies from scepter is only two though, hypothermia I'll try and get, scattershot isn't available yet, maybe I should farm more to get the gems I need to get that. Need to look into what an offering is and if I can get one at lvl 17, appreciate the reply mate :)
Also finding some gear with spirit on it (Legendary level 7 shield, Scepter, and Chest piece will add the needed Spirit and will only cost a few EX so you can get up to 4 mages and your clear and bossing will be MUCH improved.
do you changed anything on your mainlink setup skeli mage support gems ? strill try to find something better then fork
I like fork very much. Not sure if it's the best, but it works quite well for me. Nothing changed really, just looking for better items.

@@slizorn Sorry! It's Pain Offering (Cast speed).

@@Foestalker thanks that's handy, wasn't aware gear played a part in increasing spirit value!
Following your build. Thx for that!
In the minion description, there is a Hit Chance for the mages. Do mages need acuracy?
Nope, they always hit. As far as I understand it. The Arsonists need Accuracy, cause they attack.
GGG should really increase the luck with that, very annoying and frustrating.
Sometimes you get something useful, but ... You are right!
