2.6 Renewed Leary's Auramancer (Spectre, AW etc)(Great flexibility, Shaper farming!)

"

I am quite curious as to the reasoning of picking Midnight Bargain Engraved Wand Over Mon'Tregul's Grasp Void Scepter. Unless the +1 to scepters bonus is really that great or are the 10 zombies more of a blocking wall, but even so at that point the Mon'Treguls's grasps zombies definitely have more health, resistances, and stopping power due to the damage bonus from both the size and inc damage(size also applies to the health pool, damage pool, and the corpse explosion when zombies kill something) just fewer of them. As well as you have 30% more health pool,the summoner herself, since there is no health reservation on the wand. Definitely loving the build so far, but those perandus chests... oh man not looking foward to those in later difficulties till i can get some meat on those zombies. iv always had a, "rigor mortis" for summoner builds ever since diablo 2 and i definitely wanted to relive those days, just too bad there is no hell bovines to ressurect :/

I can answer this.

For a classical summoner the majority of the dps(like 80%) is on the spectre. An additional Spectre can raise your total dps by around 30% or so.

My opinion on the grasp is that it is quite a terrible unique unless your doing some kind of gimmicky minion instability build. Your cutting your tank line by half in exchange for zombies that are a bit more tanky and deal a bit more dmg individually. The Infernal blow effect is definitely the best part of the unique but the trade offs are quite bad. You'll still do more dmg with two times the amount of zombies up as well as soaking more agroo.

The wand's 30% reverse does not effect him in any way because he is using shav wrappings which means u take chaos damage on your es pool.

ah okay thanks so the build seems to be extremely dependent on shav's then.

Hi,
First of all ty for sharing your build

I have few questions for you, maybe you answered some of them in your videos but my english is not good enough to fully understand what you are saying...

Why using empower and enhance ? I dont understand what is the point of getting 23% quality on flame dash, and zombies lvl 21...

Why are you using increase duration linked with your sceptres ?

Ty for your answers, keep making videos i really appreciate them :)

I also have a question as well(go figure) what would you prioritize getting in the skill tree first. granted worse decision ever leveling up as a summoner cause those perandus chests are ferocious, but besides that havnt had much of an issue, currently lvl 47 wondering what to prioritze next on the skill tree, should i start working towards the aura nodes or get zealots oath asap? only zombie+ node im missing at the moment is gravepact. sitting on 634 shield 527/754 health using midnight(currently not using specters because of the perandus chests instantly kill them) but am definitely missing stat wise cause using a tabula to level up specters, inc aoe, and minion damage for the chest piece.

np, Ill answer with pleasure,

empower: This raises the zombie gem level by 4, because empower lvl 4, becomes lvl 5 in vertex, and thus adds 4 levels. Raising zombie's level gives a lot of extra hp and a lot of extra dmg to the point where they become close to immortal and great dps machines

enhance: same think, but then to temporal chains. Enhance becomes lvl 5 in +1 boots, giving 32% quality to both temporal chains and flame dash. Temporal chains gains .5% increased time slow per 1% quality, so enhance basically gives 16% increased time slow on temporal chains, allowing me to reach the 75% slow cap on white and magic mobs and reach 62% slow on bosses, increasing the safety of this build significantly.

flame dash 23%: I just happened to get 23% corrupt on this. Quality gives cast speed, so why not right. This is also a slight upside of linking it to enhance, giving more cast speed, thus quicker dodges.

raise zombie lvl 21: same reason as why im using empower. the gem lvl gives so much stats, that it's definetly worth going for this.

Increased duration: Im using evangelists right now, increased duration gives longer uptime on the shield, and also makes the poison they apply last longer, so it increases both survivability and dps. If you don't use evangelists but flame sentinels, use the older setup, which I linked at lvl 95 (second post)

Ty for your answer mate, i'll test evangelists :) why are you using them now instead of flame sentinels ? You can add more damge gems if using sentinels, and with elemental equilibrium they can deals more no ?
