Chest (yes it works with just a 4Link)
Raise Spectre + Minion Life + Increased Burning Damage + Minion and Totem Resistances (+ Increased Area of Effect + Increased Item Rarity)
No point in getting IIR 6th slot. BM's aura does NOT work with IIQ/IIR gems. Btw, minion damage DOES NOT increase the fire aura either, only their physical blows.
I think I'm considering dropping necromantic aegis complete. I'm curently using perandus shield and my zombies are 20/20 and they hardly get damaged, definitely not to piety. Getting more life and be able to drop aurum for 20% more IIR and gain a lot of evasion from shield wouldn't be too bad
Piety dies a WHOLE lot faster when i have a BM with minion damage up compared to two with increased AOE.
Quick question regarding Scion vs Witch map running efficiency. Currently my main is a level 72 Witch and I am wanting to do maps more than Piety runs (different environments makes it feel less like a grind).
Is the efficiency reduction largely noticeable or is it just a few percent in clear time/survival in the higher level maps and not worth the re-building of a new character? My Witch is my first character also.
@Jplays
shield passives work with aegis, pointless tho
@EvilAbadayos
witch vs scion is not efficiency, its minmaxing, you can do maps with a witch or piety with a scion, if you want to minmax you will want a witch for mf and a scion for more life
I think it's definitely worth dropping perandus blazon and getting a high HP belt. You can get 100+ life belts with double res really cheap, they're very common. With this, you can drop aurum. Lose 12iiq, gain 20iir and priceless 100+ life which translates into 300+ health. Worth it imo, especially for mappers

Okay, so far this goes really smoothly, followed the guide, got
but I have a serious problem: I'm not running out of Wisdom Scrolls soon, but how do you get more portal scrolls? Nobody seems to sell them... ;) Stupid me... who got a portal gem for me? :P
Apart from that 3-4 stacks of rares per run... awesome.
Thanks a lot for the guide, it works very well.

You can trade wisdom scrolls to portal scrolls from the act3 vendor when in distress.
Myself, got my new summoner up to lvl 67 again and now starting to gear it. I do not have enough currency yet for the saffel and still missing the +2 minion helmet but otherwise it's going quite well, just leveling up my lvl 16 summoning gems. Tried out first time maps and did lvl66 dunes. Was quite fun though it was not a walk in the park yet.
Also got the Coward's trial drop in docks, saving that for later. :)
Any suggestion what would be a good damage gem along the minion damage for the zombies? I am using added fire damage so far but I have also multistrike if that is better or something else?

Most of zombie damage comes from the gem level but that's neglible as well. 95%> of the summoners damage comes from BM's, link those first. For zombie you only need multistrike+melee splash/addedfire.

Yeah, I have 4L'd my Spectres with life, resists and increased burning damage. Still no luck with 5L or 6L.
Perhaps I'll just use one red gem which I would want to level up first for the zombies. :)
