Can current zombie+Evangelist(no SRR) summoners solo death and taxes?

Still need that for my ach but I don't want to waste this unique map without being sure.


If the life leech gem can keep the zombies alive then yea, but I never tried so I can't be sure.

Nah 5,2 k life is great. I used to do 78 maps with lvl 20 zombies with that amount of life (Before the buff)
You just need to level up the minion gems to make them stronger. Minions dying is normal if you use minion instability. Remember we kinda want them to die. Just not so fast that we lose them faster than we can resummon.

If you don't like minion instability you can always remove it. Only one passive point. Different playstyle with mi. Maybe some don't like it.

It's also in the guide. The second thing you should read.

If your raise zombie gem is not level 20 DO NOT COMPLAIN about it.
Zombies ARE NOT a one time cast. You constantly need to summon them.
Either use a life leech gem or buy a level 20 gem.
Other builds cast spells, summoners summon minions.
Deal with it.


You can also use bone offering to make minions much stronger.

Welcome to the grind. Leveling the last 2 level of zombie gem sucks big time :).

Trust me though, the difference from level 17 to level 20 is huge.





+1 to kompaniet for the great reply.

If you are doing it the hard way: leveling the gem all the way to 20 make sure you level atleast two at the same time because you are gonna have to reach 20 twice if you want the quality bonus: 20% increased zombie life.

All zombie gems should reach 20 at the same time. You can keep one on lvl 20 while you level the others from 1 again.

Better if you have the orbs for it: Buy as high lvl gem with as much quality as you can afford, preferably a 20/20 one and level atleast one zombie gem yourself. Later when you own gems reach 20 or if you decide to go for the quality too sell them and get your orbs back.

All non attack gems share the same problem. Upon reaching lvl 20 one has to have another leveled one ready for use because you can't do anything at high lvl with a lvl 1 gem. I really hope some day they find a better solution for this problem.

Attack gems do not have this problem. You can easily use lvl 1 attack gems for any content.
Maybe it is fair somehow but i just don't see it.

Positioning. Hide behind your minions and don't take any damage for a few seconds.

The only time you should be getting hit is by AOE spells anyway.

is it possible to run atziri map with this build? moreover, how good is it tentacle miscreation as spirit? evangelists do pretty well, but i never tried anything else :3

update: i switched my equipment, so now i rely more on spirits than zombies. i found this setup more interesting with this build, and my runs are even more faster than before. I switched evangelists for tentacle miscreation first, then i tested undying alchemist and undying incinerator, and both works great too. i experienced faster runs, even with the worst mods (for me ofc ;) temporal chains/frozen ground/fracturing/chain/overlord on 73-75 maps), and i killed rogues that i never been able to do, like Antalie Napora (dat b*tch). now i aim to 6l my queen's decree to boost my zombies again.
