Bolded text are interesting notes for spectre summoners =). If this trend continues we might run into an interesting special mob type that can be viable. This is all depending on whether or not the raise spectre skill raises them as a different base type.

Earthquake titans seem quite good! Suuuuper tanky, and you can throw on some good aoe too!

Getting these new "über" monsters from desecrate is likely gonna be pure suffering. We really really need spectres that persists between logouts :(

Hey guys,

nice and useful thread. Totally agree on saving the spectre ;)

Want to ask if someone knew good supporters, so no damage dealer...
silverback is already mentioned, but i'm looking for a good reliable curse speaker for example.
Also which different mixes (dmg/supp) of spectres can be used, with all benefiting from the attached supp gems. And yes i'm aware spectre is commonly used as damage dealers...

Monster curses are quite weak compared to player curses, they share your curse cap but they are <20 and have no quality or curse buff effects that you do from passives or support gems.

The best support spectre would be evangelists with inc duration and optionally inc aoe for the support bubble, beyond that maybe something that grants charges? i'd just stick with evanglist though because even if another mob was useful, summoning a mixed group would be time consuming to replace.
