He has a hybrid life srs He also has a hybrid summon life based build Mine is dual hybrid He also runs an extra aura instead of curse making his take a higher level commitment to be consider at full build We prioritize gear differently, he runs a much more offensive version of the build.

I use this gems setup: " 1) Zombie - Multi Strike - Minion Damage- Minion Resist 2) Clarity 3) Hatred - Generosity 4) SRS - Echo - Minion Damage - Multi Strike - Minion Speed OR Melee Physical OR Empower (lvl 3+) 5) Elemental Weakness - Curse on hit - Vulnerability- Ball of lightning 6) Summon skelly - spell totem 7) Desecrate 8) Vaal Haste - Increased duration 9) Chaos Golem 10) Summon Spectre 11) Discipline But, tell me how you manage it, I can not sell all skills in skill tabs. I always have to swap both auras + the chaos golem. thats correct?	Posted by Sησω#2008 on Jul 28, 2015, 7:26:15 PM Quote this Post

thanks for the answer crow. I`m about to hit 60 and the build is starting to feel fluent. still the kill speed is not imba yet put I feel it's coming up! could you please explain to what the synergy with double curse and elemental equilibrium is? I assume all the minions do melee dmg, so how do we get the -50% res benefit from vulnerability and elemental weakness? thx! current gear: Spoiler level gems in second slots: Spoiler Last edited by danteafk#2688 on Jul 29, 2015, 3:41:51 PM	Posted by danteafk#2688 on Jul 29, 2015, 3:40:06 PM Quote this Post

SRS does half fire and gets hatred too, so they so about 2/3 damage as fire or cold. So the -res significantly ups their damage	Posted by Crowcide#3895 on Jul 29, 2015, 10:03:42 PM Quote this Post
not sure if this is answered, were all the cast speed nodes dropped in favor of more es and mana? right now I can only get up to 17 srs summoned with the new tree. Also, why was the aura cluster with influence dropped? thanks a lot for this guide!	Posted by alyu314#4387 on Jul 29, 2015, 11:43:11 PM Quote this Post

Minions can't apply EE, EE is only triggered from YOUR damage. So when you cast ball lightning to apply the curse you tag everything with light damage, giving them +25% light resist and -50 cold and fire. Your minions then go to town with the mobs having -50% cold and fire from EE So in effect ball of lightning procs: vulnerability, elemental weakness, and EE Last edited by Crowcide#3895 on Jul 30, 2015, 11:40:45 AM	Posted by Crowcide#3895 on Jul 30, 2015, 11:37:26 AM Quote this Post
