Finally got around to fix my Skill Tree and cluster to get to 300% (or 3x) Aura Effect. LvL 98 is the absolut minimum to do that. Without sacrificing important nodes. (Besides the light radius node)
90/90/90/xx is possible, not sure what i will go for.
Currently only Cold And Light are max.
ES should be around 7k. Missing some Hillock quality crafts for my body armor and gloves.
Damage is still insane as last league.
Can you share your build? I want to get 300% too. I’m level 98.
4 or 5 node med clusters are actually ideal to minimise points needed to reach the jewel socket. You only go 6 if you're trying to hit specific break points on aura effects which is 260%, 280% and 300%. Otherwise, 1 skill point for 3% aura effect is really suboptimal and you're mostly better off even just dumping that point into a 12% minion damage or 6% ES node.
I'm getting two different answers on the number of nodes in the medium jewels but I assume 4 ot 5 is probably better? The guide says it too
I'd like more opinions on this before I waste my currency

Couple of things, you're gonna hit exaclty 300% with this.
So Jinxed Juju with 15% Aura Effect is a must or youre stuck below 300%.
A Helmet with 5% reduced Mana helps otherwise you'll either have to be 99 or sacrifice another node. ( I unspected a 4% Mana resevered till i am 99)
Crafted mine with an essence of loathing.
I don't mind playing with my current light radius, but i am still crafting my ring and i plan to put the enchant for light radius based on energy shield there.
I am sure you can go the voices route, but that thing is way to expensive. You would lose out on rotten claws, feasting friends and renewal, too.
* I'd rather go the +1 +1 & Pride route. Opens a new aura slot with some tweaks.
"
* +1 +1 Wands are a vast improve, opening a 9th zombie slot and 4spectre (as long as zombies into a +1 item)
"
* There is no need of 4x6 mediums to hit 87/87/87, can normally use 3x4 and 1x6 to hit it. (You can buy 3x5 since they are cheaper and you can leave 1 point unused)
-> That saves points you can convert into ES/DPS/Whatever
"
* Get some love for Esh spectres on the 4th slot, they are dirty good imho.
"
* 3R 3B chest is imho the best DPS option to get a 5L carrion and 5L zombie. You can calculate your combo DPS, and basically you will get higher overall DPS no matter what your spec is.
This carrion/zombie spec also frees up 1 gem slot
"
* Once you get into carrio/zombie spec, and if you wearing a decent AG
(21 or 20/21 divergente) you will realize Minion Life is not that need, thats another free gem.
-> Double free gem with a Trigger wand will easilly fall into Flesh Offering and Desecrate for another big bump
"
On your AG, no matter what, get just a Redemeer Chest with "Nearby enemies are blinded". That´s the CHEAPEST and ridiculously biggest survival upgrade you will ever have.
If you are good on wealth, go for Awakener orb Craft and get Redeemer Blind and Crusader Consecrated ground while stationary. Both are prefixes. Ideally you get an open prefix and craft 10% MAX Life to MAX ES. That way your AG now has superb regen and extra 10K ES likely.
If currency not that good, simply redeemer blind mod and craft Life to ES, GG.
"
* There is some other options to optimize DPS. I have no time to play this league, mostly doing some trades here and there while studying... literally not 1 single EX dropped yet to me lol

6passives are best unless you're going for 3x large 6x med cluster for 300% aura.
If going for 300% aura, you usually need 3x large 6x med, one of the med being 5 or 6 passive for the last couple points. The rest are 4 passives.
Currently i'm at 251% with 4x 6passives filled up. Had to get Pure commander in order to hit 261% breakpoint for 88/88/89 resist.
My next goal is to go to 300%, but that requires changing from LL to CI with Saqawal/different shield and I'll need to also optimize my amulet (pride % reserve + 6% reserve + 1 physical). Just hoarding currency so i can upgrade all in 1 go instead of bit by bit, need to buy chest/craft amulet/buy or vaal multiple shields/buy new med/large/intuitive leap. Will probably craft new gloves for Aspect of the avian to go with Saqawal's nest instead of Spider.

That's worth a try. At a quick glance seems to boost from 160m DPS to 180m DPS on my setup.

Minion life can just be gotten as a mod on the helmet, no need to waste a gem nor lose the gem.

I personal got him a Garb of the ephemeral with 1 endurance charge every second if hit recently. With Grave intention he's still at 50k hp regen per second. Otherwise I had a Nearby enemies blind + 1 endurance charge every second + 15% phys dmg taken as Fire + 10% life as ES chest prior to this. Im sacrificing a ghastly socket to put blind on hit to cover for that.
Thanks for everyone in this topic posting the info they have and sharing their profiles. Love this build. Just melted A8 Sirus like he was nothing. First build I have been able to do that on. I feel like I can do anything with this build
I am the world's best path of exile player, I strong I kill all monster with amazing power
Actually is someone just able to take a look at this and see if I've done something wrong? I was told once I got a coldpoint my aura would go to 2.94%, however it appears to still be at 2.67% multiplier. What did I miss?
