Pros and Cons

Pros

- Guardian helps party member a lot


Cons
- Sometimes need re-summon (especialy after hard boss)
- Some people still dislike summoner (this build is not laggy)
- Vulnerable to disconnect



Maps

Danger map mods
Blood Magic - I hardly recommend re-roll

No regene - Not good. But you can run if easy map.

Sidhebreath - Need when Summon Minions

Skullhead - Need when Summon Minions



My Gears(updated gem set up)







Summoning Gears



*BoR is weaker than 5L Chober + Skullhead

*You dont need Sunblast.
Set Remote Mine -> Set Trap gem in your chest and detonate remote mine.
Then your minion has Trap effect.




You need stronger minion?
Use Mid-High Lv Demon map like this.



FAQ

Q.
Is AA with no armor effective?

A.
Its really effective. Stacking high armor is just for small damage monster.
Armor only have small effect for high phys damage like Kole smash.
I already immune almost small damage with AA.
So, I dont need high armor.


Q.
Why Smoke Mine?

A.
You can gather minions when use Smoke Mine.
So, you can easy to dodge danger attack like Vaal smash.


Q.
Why Conc Effect sucks?

A.
Skill area
If Unrighteous Fire radius is 10

Normal = 100π
Conc = 49π
Inc AoE = 204.49π

Using conc effect = Sacrifice 51% skill effect area.

As suitable or unsuitable as every other life build. :) You have less "room" on gear if you need life + chaos resists instead of only ES, so IIR is a bit harder to get, but that only applies if you care about good chaos resists.


@DonaldF: どうもありがとう! Great timing! I was looking for a new build for my summoner since I really didn't have the ES gear for a good CI build, so I wanted to switch her (at 75) to a life build -- and yours looks perfect (and very flexible, too) for how I want to play with her. The patch made summoners so much more fun for me.
then this build is not suitable for mecil domi and piety run with high IIR IIQ. right?

I don't get it, why trap and remote mine?
Srry for asking again, but 1.06 videos could be a good trustable and viable since that video 1.05. I dnt believe that matters from old and new patch between.

Nothing changed that made the build weaker. If it worked in 1.05, it now works even better. But it's really basically the same as all other life summoner builds, e.g. the life version of Rathik's Matriach build. The main difference is that DonaldF uses the Cloak of Defiance, which provides MoM. With EB + AA + MoM (which you normally can't get to easily as a witch), survivability increases by a LOT. The build itself works without CoD just fine, too. It's not dependent on the armor.
