Introduction to the Electro Skeleton

In the ever-evolving world of Path of Exile 2 (POE2), summoners have a new ally in the form of the Electro Skeleton. This build isn't about overwhelming power, but it does offer a balance of efficiency with comfort, especially for those looking to avoid the harsh visual effects of previous builds like the Firebringer. Here's how to make this build shine:

Building Your Electro-Skeleton Army

Skill Setup:
Skeleton Warrior: The core of your army. Focus on Purgatory Legion for visibility, Hellhound for tanking, Grim Feast for shield recovery, and God of Gods for mana sustain.
Electro-Skeleton Mage: Your main damage dealer. Enhanced with Casting Speed, Penetration Resistance and Damage Boosts. 
Additional Skills: Add a sniper for boss fights and use command skills to increase damage where needed.

Skill Synergies:
Use Devotional Summons for damage boosts. 
Use Curses for additional crowd control and damage, and optimise with Chain Activation for mana efficiency.

Gear Recommendations

Weapons and off-hand:

Scepter: Look for attachments that increase Spirit and Summoning levels. Additional bonuses such as friendly damage or casting speed are beneficial.
Off-hand: Spirit Shield for survival or a Legendary Anchor for high damage output, depending on your play style.

Armour:

Helmet: Focus on Spirit Shield and Energy Shield bonuses.
Chest: Expert Shaman cape or similar for spirit and energy shield, health and resistance boosts.
Shoes: Go for speed to keep up with your summons, or get by with displacement skills like Charge and Flash.

Accessories

Necklace: Prioritise mind, summoned creature skill levels and energy shield.
Rings and Belt: Focus on health, resistances, and ability boosts.

Talent tree and sublimation

Sublimation: Prioritise Hellhound, Transformed Body and maximum Energy Shield for a balanced approach.
Talents: Focus on summoning damage and survivability. Summoning resistance is key for elemental protection.

Gameplay Tips

Weapon Switching: Reset your minions by switching weapons to control their positioning, especially useful in tight maps.
Displacement Skills: Use Heavy Shield Charge and Flash not only for movement, but also for tactical repositioning during battles.
Minion Control: Use the Wave button to control your minions, allowing for strategic positioning in battle.
