[The Spectral Scion, A Summoners Guide](10/23)[Re did passive tree]

The only advantage I see is : you will start closer of Sentinel & Iron Reflexes but for that you have to spend 2 more skill points.

So unless you are doing that at the beginning I dont see the point of the scion over the witch !

Nice!

I'm thinking of using this one for my fresh character on the new Domination league. Do you think this might be a relatively easy to accomplish build for a fresh Scion on a fresh league?

Anyway, Scion summoner, I like the idea of that!

I guess there is no point other than aesthetics.

In terms of having an easier start I think scion has the advantage with 80% mana regen and more hp nodes nearby.

*Am actually running the same build on my witch lol. Just wanted a fresh start. I guess that 2 points could be quite meaningful if you turn those points into double 8% nodes.

Guess if you wanted to start witch (you'll actually have more life)

Passive skill tree build

EDIT: Hmmm. that is a good point thou those 2 points can make a difference. I guess if you want a 100% efficient character go witch if you want a easier start go scion. Alright I guess i'll just go and spec my witch than =/. Am gonig to turn this build into a crit spectral thrower.

Well my max lvl was 55 in HC (I died stupidly to the medecine chest quest in merc because I had -17% cold and I didn't see the boss was aggro lol).

I'm lacking a bit of late game XP & maps on a summoner but if you can do this build without the Lord of the Dead, the Scion might be better. You will loose one zombie + 20% HP but you will save a lot a skillpoint! (and you can stil take Gravepact + 30% DMG).

Am still thinking about the build now. Its all on that 20% hp.

I can't help you on that since I didnt lvl a char high enough !
But in my experience and with your video the minion dont really die and with the aura or a rejuv totem its just imba (but for maps I don't know)

As for the witch I usually start my tree on the left because most of the good nod are on this side (and you can easily go down for the scion "advantages" pretty easily)

That 20% hp for minions does do wonders for burning miscreation dps. I find any minion damage nodes to be a waste.

but yeah this was the other scion build I was working on an ES crit ele spectral throw with vaal pact

Spectral Throw Crit Build

HP buff for DPS ? How ?

So no more scion summoner ? :D

I really hope you either do your Scion summon build or this new one you're thinking of because I for one like the Scion over the Witch and really want to see something amazing come from her!

I'm really digging this spectral throw skill though, I'd love to see what you can come up with.

I am very excited about your anouncement.

I am a long time computer gamer but real life obligations limit the amount of time I´m able to invest in PoE or other games. Guides written by skilled players like you allow me to experience much more from the game than I could if I were own my own.

Your witch summoner guide(s) is/were excellent. And I am really looking forward to your scion summoner guide.

Keep up your great work :-)
