The Spectrel Gods ( A Summoners Guide ) [Updated 4/22][Now with video!]

I'll try that config tonight. thanks

I have a pretty much spare 4l available in one of my builds, is there any spectre that can stay alive(doesnt require recast), and is useful alone and without any minion passives?

as far as my testing goes voidbearers with life leech+gmp+faster proj stay alive for a while b\c they melt the shit out of everything, its like having 3 fast movement flame totems, flame senti's are okay but theyre quite laggy with fireballs flying everywhere

Just tried a 14% shock nova, and boy was it scary. I think i'll stick to arc for now. At least until i have more life.

flame sentinels are very good. you can take act 3 normal to act 2 cruel vaal without really loosing one. same for act 3 cruel to merci act 2 , or act 3 merci to maps.
thy are pretty fast and u ll only loose them in "close indoor maps" or with 2 times hast in a row at outdoor maps

with raise spectre
- minion dmg
- life leech

With the 4th game - the opinions in the forum split hard from

- Faster Cast
i watched them 2 month now and took it out since they bonus isnt soo much

-LMP/GMP/CHAIN

since their projectile forks i didnt give em in - maybe in small indoor maps.

- Remote Mine

goes around the forum gives u like minion dmg some percentage


- increased crit strike
my personal setup inspired by the fire zombies - works pretty well and it feels that it upgrades the spectres complete crit chance (more than a normal FB), not the spell crit chance (fb 5%)

note since my spectre are from the lower difficulty they are always underlvld and crit 1 out of 4 - u have 2 spectres - test it urself

my favorite spectre setups

voidbearer - spectre-gmp-fastcast-fasterproj-lifeleech-firepen
flame sentinel spectre-culling strike-miniondmg-concentrated-firepen-life leech kills piety in
30sec bosskiller setup switch life leech for remote mine for more dmg

or the fire burn setup
flame sentinel spectre-addburn dmg-minindmg-remote mine-chanceto ignite-eleprof-


since i got nearly destroyed today in a map with lightning thorns i was pissed and tested those blackguard mages and must say seeing me and my zombies and spectres getting buffed with lightning thorns is amazing and it seems ....

that when my zombie attacks someone with lightning thorns while buffed with lightning thorns isnt affected by lightningthorns which means great survivability

blackguard mage setup is spectre-fastcast-chain-lightning pen-lifeleech-cullingstrike
the lightning thorns buff is really strong

lightning thorns is really strong.

They are rare but those map level Arc mages are amazing spectres instantly providing x3 shock stacks.

faster cast - chain - minion dmg - life leech - lightning pen

Another spectre that is pretty good and common in maps is siren's daughter (the thing that shoots tidal wave like projectiles)

GMP makes it stack just like freezing pulse would (which = tons of damage)

*Something I wanted to test, or maybe one of you guys have done this already:

Added cold damage with qual. I wonder if this would make constant dps spectre like void bearers be able to freeze things quite easily.

tested the added cold voidbearer doesnt work :( have a 14% so 7% chance to freeze cold dmg isnt high enough

tested a max singletarget flame sentinel lol that shit is awesome docks mob die in 1 hit

spectre-remotemine-miniondmg-cullingstrike-concentrated-firepen

single target is so extreme it 2 shots gneiss without curse since everything is dead on sight in docks you dont have to worry to lose one thats why mine have no life leech

working on my 2nd leheup so i have 15-20% more dmg on my minions

Its ok, but your better off getting a defensive shield.

Al thou u can do a really troll build and get aegis with that shield and your minions will start spreading tar everywhere
