[1.2.1][v5.0] Dual Shockwave Totem - LowLife/DPS/IQ/IR/3 Auras with a Witch

Dude, thanks for this build, seriously :) It is so malleable too. I made a hybrid summoner + shockwave totem, its kicking some serious ass. The enemies get frozen by Hatred and pushed back by the knockback, increasing the survival of my minions tenfold. Shockwave totem is very powerful crowd control and DPS. Also, running 7 auras helps being able to take off some points from the summon nodes like +life. With so many auras, minions are crazy.

Next i am going to make a single shockwave totem + flameblast + minor minion buffs (mostly hp buffs) build. The idea will be to have enough shit following me that can tank while i stand back and flameblast the crap out of everything! Flameblast is ridiculously powerful, but very dangerous when playing solo.. because of cast delay.

Bon travail mec!

Thank you for this comment ;)

And thank you for all players who whisper me to say "thank you".

I think this build is now finished and only your own imagination can improve it like you want.
It's not perfect because it's hard to run high lvl maps but it's not possible to be good every where ;)

I will update this thread only if a big change or improve can be done with next patches.

I'm currently working on a other type of build, melee build this time, using the full potential of Avatar of Fire. I don't know now if it will works as expected but if it's enough good, you will have news next week ;)

build is awesome, i took it as a base of my one, now i got 7.3k dps each totem :D and still not 20/20 gems :D, but got a question, what could be the difference between using determination and grace? im using grace but cant notice the improvement, plus i took some armor/es nodes so though determination could have better effect, can you help me with this choice? :P

The choice is yours ;)

But i think determination is a good option, probably better than grace.

1st because is easy to have RGB on Prims Guardian (GGB is f*ck*ng hard and expensive)
2nd because it will reduce damage taken where grace will avoid.
3rd Yes, it will benefit of armor/es nodes.

Yep! I predicted it would be perfect for farming most maps but will have difficulty surviving higher level content. Summoners are known to be able to do everything in the game once the zombies gem is lvl 20 (not before..), but I feel they lack the clearing speed. So with decent totems and all minion nodes + 7 auras, i think it will be able to handle anything the game can throw at it. Zombies keep the aggro off the totems so they dont keep getting shot down, and shockwave's aoe helps zombies. Also shockwave is perfect for culling in groups if you remove the concentrated effect, so that more mobs can get hit at same time! This shockwave build really is jack-of-all-trade, if you hadnt discovered its true potential i dont think anyone would be using it.... lol

edit: and still i have never run a group with anyone else using it... many more ppl have yet to discover it xD
