{3.0} Necronomicon / Raise Spectre Monster Info...[The Unofficial Minion Wiki]

This post states that T16 guardian maps can spawn any specter type as far as we are aware.

However I wasn't able to get stygian silverback (one of the two frenzy ape) on my lair of hydra with no "inhabited by X" mod.
Can someone else confirm this? Also it'll be nice to know of carnage chieftain works.
I'm running SRS and I am looking to add in two specters to frenzy my little skulls.

I think the correct wording would be "T16 guardian maps can spawn with any monster sets". Sometimes it just rolls certain inhabitants. I still don't know if there are any restriction to maps at all.
If you are not running a +3 staff you could use Victario's Charity. It might not look like much, but it gives some really good options in the offhand, like that rather cheap minion poison dagger. Poison is still strong, even after the damage conversion.
If you do use those apes you might to use blood magic with them. I found their assistance a bit unreliable since Skulls are replaced at a rate similiar to your cast time.

Hey guys,

I was originally planning to use RS + Min Dmg + GMP + PPAD + Slower Proj + Pierce for my Knitted Horror setup. Currently, I am using the first 4 links and the damage is quite fine.

However, I did read somewhere that instead of PPAD, I should run Poison because it will double-dip with the rest of the support gems.

Can anyone confirm this? I am too lazy to do the mathematics behind PPAD vs Poison.

Poison will double dip with the rest of the setup but knitted horror isn't that great of a vehicle to stack poison. They shoot too slow.

You can do this setup

RS + Min Dmg + Less Duration + Pierce + Slower Proj + PPaD/GMP swap

Should give you the most dmg for single target and having AOE to swap to.

You could try those tentacle things from the lunaris temple, they have a decent attack speed.
And yes, poison is far superior to PPAD.

The tentacle things aren't very good, they are very squishy and tend to stand in one place a lot making them even more vulnerable.

3.0.0 spectres get movement speed cap raised, so that could open up some of the slower monsters out there.

So i'm playing my first summoner this season and was heavily inspired by the build It'sYoji plotted and am currently now struggling a bit with gearing up that character. Its running raise zombie / srs / spectre (flame sentinel) / animate guardian
Here you can see the build im running ( items are a bit semi-optimal in the moment )

would the Scourge Terror Claw be of any use for this setup, or am I not able to benefit from its bonuses? If not what would be a good 1 hand weapon you'd recommend?

Every help/advice appreciated - thanks in advance.

If you swap flame dash for shield charge, then you can use that to trigger the scourge bonus.

1. Have the spectre you want to raise already summoned
2. Going into a higher tier/lvl map and desecrating
3. As long as the map mod did not roll "area is inhabited by x mod" the spectre you have already summoned should show up. For example if you roll "area is inhabited by animals" and the spectre your going for is not an animal it will not spawn via desecrate.

For example: Raise flame sentinel in eternal lab -> open a t16 map -> spam desecrate -> flame sentinel corspes should show up -> enjoy your facerolling T16 spectre

* Make sure to have at least a level 19 desecrate so the corpse level will guaranteed to match with the high level zone area
* There are some maps that can't seem to spawn certain mobs I guess this is tied to tilesets?
* Other summoners have noted T16 maps can mostly spawn anything

I'm sorry, but is this still accurate? I have the feeling this has been changed in 2.6. At least I cannot get it to work. Am I the only one?

It still seems to be working for me. Try linking Desecrate with spell echo. You can get 6 corspes at a time. Increasing the chance to find the mob your looking for. Keep in mind there are still map rolls and tile set restrictions.
