Dying Breath / Alpha's Howls / Summoner / SRS

why increased duration instead of melee splash, and why hatred not on generosity (better than +2 from alphas)

Great build IMO, and very kind of you to post it here.

I use same summoned zombies and spectres, and spam SRS till bad guys die.

I do however use a totem to throw arc + cast on hit to curse mobs.
Also I less (no) points into auras and curses, but instead went for cast speed and skill duration.
The latter lets you skip the Increased Duration gem, to be replaced by ie. Melee splash.


Keep up the good work and let the videos coming - I've subscribed.

Why thank you!

A point to note - Totem cannot trigger curse on hit right? I tried it a while back, and it never apply the curse. Has it changed recently?

Auras are great with summoner builds. And with like 10-20 minions (or more!), the benefits amplify. And since this build is based on the dying breath unique, which enhances both auras and curses, I thought it would be better to use both curses and auras.
Yes - you're absolutely correct. Curses can't autocast from totems!!
Guess I got wrong info from a friend, but now I've made it a self-cast and my SRS loves it.

Yes, you can use melee splash or added fire. They are great alternatives. The reason why I used increased duration is because when fighting dominus last form, it is actually easier to kill dom with increased duration.

As for generosity, it is a great idea. But I am lacking gem slots.
