support!
Did they ever fix burning damage not applying IIR gem? I remember hearing that they fixed it but cant find anything showing that it was indeed fixed. Im noticing I get good quantity but have done 2 clears of catacombs without a single yellow drop.

A few questions...
1) Why is it that Saffell's Frame is a must for this build and there is no other substitute? 2) "Also Increased Item Rarity and Increased Item Quantity (where available) GEMS apply to their Aura, since it's a degen effect." Quote taken from the notes on the first page. Are you saying I can have IIR gem linked with Grace and it would apply to all minions including myself? 3) For the zombie gem... wouldn't it be best to run summon zombie, minion life, melee splash and blind? This is if you're not using skeletons. You've stated that the damage from zombies is insignificant. So wouldn't it be best to mitigate as much damage as possible by melee splashing and blinding at the same time? Just trying to understand this build fully. If the only reason Saffell's Frame is a must because of the 10% increased all resistance, it seems like an expensive must. I just don't know if the block chance gets applied as well? So it's like your summons are wearing the shield you're currently wearing with the necro passive. Once I post an offer in a thread, I never check back. If I win something, please PM me.

I'm level 78 going onto 79 now and getting the hang of the build. Some of you guys with zombies and BMs dying instantly should keep in mind that you need to be somewhat close to your minions to ensure the auras are active on them.
Summoners mentality had always tend to be stay away and hide while your minions tackle on the mobs/boss. With this build, you can pretty much be close and stay safe. Trigger your Granite flask often! Don't be afraid to use it. Trigger it only when Piety is in her blue form. Be sure to have atleast 2-3 HP potions with the suffix "of animation." Healing them and you at the same time is highly beneficial. Don't wander too far from them. Don't be afraid to go into the fray! Otherwise I don't have much issues anymore. Only problem is her damn crit rolls and when she conjures up way too many blue portals. Drives me insane. Hopefully when I'm in the mid 80s', I'll be able to handle the arrows like Sam. I'm sitting at 12k armor and hopefully more without the aid of the Granite flasks. |

" He had already said it on the front page. Spell block and increase max resistances. Both will make your minions more reliable and better survivability against boss AOEs. |

im level 80 with that build and it works like a charm. i have cleared maps up to 73 lvl with a group and i keep running around and pulling mobs like crazy so my minnions can burn them alive.
survivability is ok if u dont desyncand and u manage to run into your zombies whenever you get damage and i am using tabula rasa so i dont have loads of armor to protect me |

Raise Zombie is my only 20% gem. Which one should be next? Item Rarity? Bit unsure at the moment what would give most benefits.

" Yea I found it stuck in the middle of the notes after I posted that. really really glad I found this guy yesterday. i was able to trade in about 250 portal scrolls for wisdom scrolls, which I needed IGN: DabrixRN Last edited by Thomasmgp#1035 on Dec 9, 2013, 11:26:34 AM

" #1 Spellblock Chance and +5% max resist means alot when you start doing harder maps there you really feel the difference 5% can make. I bought mine back then for 7c and now it is like 5-20chaos. A quick check on poe.xyz listed some sellers so it is not that expensive as i initally thought. #2 No, it now works with the Burn from BurningMiscreations which bevor some patches was bugged. #3 That is actually a good idea. My Zombies do some DMG with Zombie+Life+Multistrike+Added fire but it is actually not that much to matter especially in bigger groups. But without Multistrike the Zombies hit kinda slow so everything might be dead already. I think i will try out Zomibe+Life+Multi+Blind Oh and i use Tabula Rasa for Spectre summoning and place the Spectre Gem in the same top left spot in town which wirks great. When i get lvld gems i would go so far and replace everything except of zombie and spectre gems for different stuff maybe some defensive cast on dmg taken+endurance charge... My current Gear any advice on what to improve next?
