THE GHOSTMASTER

FOREWORD
Since pets now suffer against supers, I decided to experiment with immortal pets. The problem is: pets are immortal, but I am not. And I tried to solve this problem.

BUDGET STEPPING STONE SETUP
click
This setup was made as a stepping stone for easy totem/dungeons farming and climbing lower levels of SR (up to 66). Only basic low-level components,augs and gear were used.
Even with unaffixed MI (but with 2 mandatory green prefixes on weps (for 23+ Reap spirit) and 1 optional suffix for more health regen 
) , this setup can clear SR65-66: VIDEO
FRESH HARDCORE SSF LEVELING EXPERIENCE
click
It’s not a real leveling guide, but a showcase of leveling possibilities.The goal was to get as close to a Budget Steping Stone Setup as possible and make pre-endgame setup for successful farming.
TL;DR: Finished MC+AoM+FG on Ultimate, setup can farm Lokarr. I’m too lazy so I didn’t climb SR or Cr (yet).

PERFORMANCE
Live
Maxed
Yes, it misses some things, but it’ll work for SR75-76 etc. Which in turn will give you the iron to buy this double rare Bargol’s Core from the vendor. Which is going to be exceedingly expensive. Like over 500K iron expensive.
