[2.0]Rathik's NEWBIE FRIENDLY FUN&CHEAP FARMER, DPS Summoner. High AOE DMG, SURVIVAL."The Matriarch"

currently i have a lvl 20 non Quality Raise zombie and a lvl 17 Q20 Raise zombie.
nearly every other gem has a Break even point where it better to switch to the Quality
gem.
Not so with Raise Zombie it seems to me. is the lvl 20 one so much better than the Quality from the lower level gem ? Or is it only some strange experience i made ?
Did anyone tried to implement Detonate Dead to this build? I was thinking that it would increase a clear speed in maps and areas that are less dangerous. Is DD viable in 4link? I could replace my offerings with it.

Need an advice please, this is my passive tree:


From level 78+ I stopped allocating my passive points, didn't find any place to put them. So now I have 4 passive points, should I remove 3 points from somewhere else and go directly for Nullification and the other ev/ES nodes behind?

Well you could replace Arc with it. The gem setup not that difficult.

1 slot for auras (gloves)
1 slot for self cast (boots)
1 slot for zombies (helm/armour)
1 slot for curses (weapon)
1 slot for skeletons (shield)

1 free slot for anything you want. Most go spectre.

You could combine Detonate Dead with Culling Strike, IIQ and IIR I guess.

I thought about dual totem.
one casting desecrate and another casting detonate.


Does Devination flask only apply to things you kill or your minions too?

hey folks,

i am thinking to build my 1. character with this guide since it is cheap as mentioned (personally no clue , hope so..).

Here is a problem :

Topic owner shares the passive tree skill about end game and also remarks ' not to be used for leveling' .

So as a newbie in poe , I need a progression passive tree like for first 20 points then 40 points and goes like that till end game .

Can anyone or topic owner help me ?

NOT : There is a ' leveling' section in first page . but that also dictates that is not newbie friendly.

Thank you for your interest . Have fun .

The guide was written before they buffed summoners in 1.0.6. It has to be easier to level now. Just add points to minion nodes and defensive nodes.

The most difficult part of leveling in this build is when to take CI and how many life nodes to take before switching to CI. Leveling a CI character is the same challenge for everyone regardless of the build. It is much more difficult than leveling a non-CI character.

Just remember you want 2-3kish ES before you swtich to CI. Good luck.

Flesh offering will provide a lot more DPS than DD, and flesh offering doesnt need support gems. I don't even use increased duration with it. The 40% attackspeed for your zombies/spectres/spirits is just insane...

DD would just use up corpses that you need for flesh offering. If you want spells to cast during downtime...use Raging spirit.

I run 4 auras, so I had to cut skeletons and Arc in favor of raging spirit. 8x Zombies are pretty good at culling anyway when they have multistrike and melee splash.

Leveling -> Life DPS build -> CI transition Look under this spoiler on the first page and it shows leveling for both the scion and the witch.
