Simulacrum is overtuned/busted or it is just me??

[Noobody]

Frankly simulacrum is super hard i have cleared a lot of very end game content and non of them feels remotely close the the simulacrum level 1 difficulty.

The monster spawn with invulnerability frame, they push you and stun lock you de-casting you, you have no space to manoeuvre in certain area, you see nothing because of the god and visual effect and every trial is like 2.5 Divine O.o

This is summarised below but any help feedback would be greatly appreciated : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xkROoDCVWI

I notice the same with the invincibility and the pushing but I have no problem with 3 delirium on t15 maps as monk or ranger, usually they'll push me and i'll kill them as soon as the invincibility runs out. Delirium monsters are also stronger so maybe it's youur dmg? I've not done the big stone you use in the video. I have 1.8k health and 6K ES as monk with ~250k ice strike DPS

Simulacrum always was some of the hardest content in PoE 1 depending on your build. You need to have a balanced character with with multiple defensive layers, high damage and attack / cast speed.

Looking at your build you have no block or evasion and you play CI so you probably have low stun and freeze treshhold. You either need to have enough damage to instant kill everything or get 75% block and some way to freeze /stun them,

Simulacrum is very hard for some character types in PoE 2. Mace users have so low attack speed that they just get swarmed like you just 10x worse. The simulacrum mobs can also roll chain that deletes minion builds.

For spark archmage, quarterstaff or bow users simulacrum is easy in PoE 2 if you have a strong character.

so maybe i can remove my CI? or get more stun threshold?

You can get icebreaker on the tree for 100% maximum energy shield as additional freeze threshold. Best to get maximum energy shield as stun threshhold from jewels, don't know exactly how much you would need. Also block would help ALOT.

I use the charm and i never got freeze so far for block don t i need a shield to block?

Yes, you need a shield to get high block chance, but wand + shield is superior to staff anyway.

Stun threshold is based on your life, and when you play CI you only have 1 life, thats why you get stunned so easily. You can get stun threshold when CI from jewels or from the passive tree.

Simulacrum is disgustingly overtuned. I think the mobs getting invulnerability when they appear is a bug too.

I have a lvl 96 gemling with a 400 div build and cleared max difficulty on every pinnacle boss but I cannot get past Simulacrum. I've also got close to 5khp with 72% evasion including acrobatics.

The only people I see clearing this are temporalis abusers

You don't need temporalis, I clear it with my archmage stormweaver no problem, you just need enough damage to instant kill everything.

Any good archmage build with a budget of 150+ divines clears it easy. That said if you want to farm it for profit there is no need to do the hardest difficulty as it only adds the ♥♥♥♥ unique staff to the drop pool.

You run spark? If yes, that's understandable given that's one of the most overpowered abilities in the game right now. If no, then I commend you.

I run spark as well yyou said 150 divine build this is kinda of a joke, when you compare to the rest of the content you doon't need that much of a crazy stuff to complete it.. I am only talking simulacrum lvl 1 here... I find weird that all other pinacle i can clean them while eating a sandwich and this lvl 1 is like going through all the layer of hell

In my opinion the requirements on your build for running Simulacrums in POE2 are more or less the same as in POE1. It has always been the ultimate test of your build and not every build is supposed to be able to clear it, at least that is how it was in POE1. My current build I am using for Simulacrums is a STR stacking totem build and has little over 8000 HP, 1700 regen/s, all resistances incl. chaos capped, high stun threshold, good dps and can clear them just fine. But in my opinion you are not missing much, because as of now the loot is very disappointing on the average run, even on highest difficulty.

i was suppriesed too. i and able to take a t4 breach boss' hand smash but get kill by 14 round of t0 sim. yes, i am ci with 0 armor or evasion, but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ t0 sim should not be this hard. lol

[qsnoopyjr]
