Cheap, Tanky, DPSy: Summon Raging Spirit [not updated for 1.3+]

Easy to use DPS calculator. I made this since the one Ghazzy posted seems to have mistakes and is impossible to make sense of.

Thanks for the tip regarding the increased duration benefits on immortal call, this is the kind of stuff I was looking for. I guess I'll see in a few days how this build does in beyond after I level my character more, only level 30 now.

To add on to what Matt said, I know this build doesn't go down that far, but I find the +1 endurance charge near marauder to be very nice when combo'd with Spell Echo. I get just over 8 seconds with 4 Endurance charges, which against bosses is 100% uptime. You can still have 100% uptime with only 3 charges, but you gotta be more careful about timing.

I found a Rare 6 Link staff in game . I was trying to understand the crafting section, where it says easy to roll a +2 fire mod. Can I get some more detail on how to do this? I know very little about crafting. Or is there a good forum post on crafting I could read?

Use scouring orb first. Use orb of transmutation. And start to alteration orb. You will get +2 fire gems. than augment+regal it to hope for +1 all gems. cheers.

It would make more sense to alt for +1 gems and then to regal +2 fire gems, since +1 gems is rare, and regals are worth more than alts

Yeah i know it. He asked for the easiest way to get +2 fire. So i just told him one more cheap step.

Honestly I have to say I had some doubts when I hit level 60 on Rampage with this build. I felt kinda meh and didn't know that in 10 levels I would be the most OP shit I have ever seen. This build is amazing. In terms of Survivability I have already been able to go Hybrid ES & Life at Lv 75 (Currently at 2.6k Life / 2.2k ES). Of course because I am playing in softcore I didn't prioritize ES or HP nodes & my current tree is below:



As for my gear, after a lot of hard work and farming, this is what I've got so far:



NOTE: I messed up my chest sockets somehow so currently not showing proper links of clarity in chest with BM and Discipline in Alpha's

A lot of it isn't that great and some hard choices had to be made while trying to keep up dex/strength early but it's all going to be upgrades from here. Currently saving for 6L staff.

Just started Dual cursing with my arc too so got a nice damage spike. All in all just wanted to share my experience and hope it helps.

Does the item level on the staff matter if I roll it from a white one or is it enouch with a ilvl 50+ to get the 6 links? I mean does a higher ilvl have better chanse to get higher castspeed, fire dmg etc?

dfolucinda: thanks for sharing. Didn't realize you could switch to life/es that early.

ashmed: I believe i55 is needed for +3 fire, and after that higher tiers unlock more mana reg, cast speed, and resist. poemods.com

Happy to help, just wanted to mention that the important thing was to still have enough mana regen for AA (so waited for that). Now I have the money for a 6L but there is no 6L for sale, will provide more feedback once I have that.

EDIT: Just got this:



EDIT: Ended up with this after running out of crafting currency (+3 too hard lol):



Still have enough Mana unreserverd & regen
