Greetings Builders, Danielle here, and welcome to another exciting build review. For those who don't know, my build reviews offer, in just a couple of minutes, all the information that you need to decide if this build is for you or not. If this is meant to be the one, you can find links for PoE (Path of Exile) and complete guides in the video description. And if this video helps you, please leave a thumbs up to support the channel. Thank you very much, and let's get into it. Today's build is like having fireworks on the screen: the incredible Mage Skeletons Guardian with the Templar class. I'm sure you will remember that to transform our regular skeletons into mage ones, you used to need a unique jewel called Dead Reckoning. Well, that's changed because of the new Transfiguration Gems. Now we have the Summon Skeletons of Mages Gem that naturally summons mage skeletons without the need of any mandatory unique item and for a much lower price. This means that mage skeletons become an even better starter than before. Let's discuss the pros of this.

build. I would start with survivability. With the Guardian Ascendancy, you get almost 75% chance to block attacks and spells, a huge life regeneration, and a new Sentinel of Radiance that takes 20% of the damage for you. All of that combined with the fact that this is a minion build that is very safe to play because you stay behind your minions, and they can kill enemies from a big distance. Also, with the new Elemental Relic, you and your minions get three damage AAS totally for free, resulting in great boss damage. Now to the cons: start saying that M skeletons don't move; they feel more like a totem build. For that reason, you need to keep resummoning them while clearing maps. The Guardian Ascendancy also doesn't get a speed boost from Flesh Offering like the Necromancer, so it's a little bit slower. Above all, when comparing to the Necromancer, this version also doesn't get that awesome 30% to all Elemental resistance for you and your minions.

might cause your zombies and specters to die from Elemental damage if you don't look for Minion resistance on your rare gear. As for budget, this build is cheaper than ever. You can get to destroy early End Game maps with only around 50 chaos. To comfortably advance to Yellow Maps, I recommend investing around 120 chaos. And for easily completing Aras, I recommend investing around four divines. But you can totally do it with less. Don't forget that on Poe bus.net, you can find all the equipment that you need to buy for this build with direct links, for example, being sold by other players. For Clear speed, I'll give it eight out of 10. You have many skeletons firing many projectiles at a high cast speed rate. I took two points off because the made skeletons don't move, and you need to keep resummoning them, and also because the guardian does not get the flash offering speed boost like The Necromancer. The boss damage is also amazing, deserves nine out of 10.

new returning projectile support gem. 100% of projectiles will hit enemies twice, but since it's not as powerful as the Nerf anomalous F projectiles, I took one point out for this survivability. I'll give it 10 out of 10. This build has a big load of defensive layers, such as high armor, 75% chance to block attacks and spells, a minion that takes 20% of the damage for you. And since it's a minion build, you are far from danger all the time. And that's it for today, guys. What did you think about those maid skeletons, Guardian? Please don't forget to tell me your thoughts in the comments and leave a thumbs up to support the channel. I wish you guys an amazing day, and don't forget to keep building.

Review: Mage Skeletons Guardian Build in Path of Exile

The new Transfiguration Gems have made the Mage Skeletons Guardian a more affordable and accessible starter build.

With the Guardian Ascendancy, it offers high survivability with a strong chance to block attacks and spells, significant life regeneration, and a damage-absorbing Sentinel of Radiance.

However, the mage skeletons' lack of movement requires frequent re-summoning during map clearing, making it feel slower than the Necromancer, and it lacks the elemental resistance bonus for you and your minions.

The Budget-Friendly Minion Resistance Build for End Game Maps

This build requires prioritizing minion resistance on rare gear to avoid elemental damage deaths.

It is now more affordable, with the potential to conquer early End Game maps for around 50 chaos.

Investing approximately 120 chaos can help advance to Yellow Maps, and a budget of around four divines is recommended for completing Aras.

The build offers a high clear speed, with the ability to deal amazing boss damage, but is slightly hindered by the immobility of the skeletons and the lack of a flash offering speed boost.

The new returning projectile support gem allows 100% of projectiles to hit enemies twice, but is considered less powerful than the Nerf anomalous F projectiles.

The gem still receives a high rating of 10 out of 10 for its defensive capabilities, including high armor, a 75% chance to block attacks and spells, and a protective minion, making it a safe option for a minion build.
