thanks for the reply!
I keep a +2 ring in inventory for desecrate so that wouldnt be the issue
The quality might be a start, however that seems to give me around ~20k dps p/spectre, which is a start but still wont make the fire eaters anywhere near unkillable.
Im thinking getting minion resistance jewels, but from PoB it looks like its already capped

Hi man just on a side note I also see you did not get "puppet master" that is 26% max HP per spec that you don't have, This was my first summoner build and I have yet to loose a specter, it's very strange that you get some deaths :D

Hi man, hope I can answer you as I have said before I'm not the actual guy to give help around here but at least I can give you my opinion

From what I see on your profile you didn't upgrade your Amulet, your one ring has no ES roll and you have no jewels that gives you ES (excl energy from within)

If you get the Amulet and a nice roll ES 40+ on you rare ring with at least 3 rare jewels with the 6% increased max ES on you will hit just under 7k ES

After the huge ES nerf 7K is acceptable

Just on a side note you can also look at divining your Shavs, I always try to keep my Shavs on a 140%+ ES roll

I hope this helps, enjoy

Some Tips:
-If you can replace your unset rare ring with another "The Pariah" you get a lot ES (you need stat from belt/gloves/jewel)
-Upgrade Eye of Chayula (as beeskniegZA said)
-Replace your Ball Lightning lv 20 with another Lv 1 (you dont need it at Lv 20, you use it only to curse the enemy)
-Remove Occultist's Dominion, Mana and Life, Heart of Soul and Mana and Life (they are unseless, this is a LL Build, so you dont need Life). Take Shaper/Mana/Mana and Socket nodes.
-Remove two passive point from Flask and strength point near Arcane Vision, get the Socket near Charisma. Gain a level and get another socket near Essence Surge or under Faith and Steel
-Jewel: Energy From Within + Conqueror's Efficiency + 4 Jewel Minion Damage/Energy Shield/Res or Attribute

If you need see gear and jewel you can check my equip. I have different skill gems and some point on tree because I use Wicker & Tuko, so i removed two points "Reduced Mana Reservation" & Conqueror's Efficiency.

xxWolf, this is a great guide, thank you. The only thing that stood out to me as possibly a bit outdated is your flask setup. I realize you have something that's worked over and over for several leagues, but there are a lot of nice utility flasks now that might outshine going from ~79 to ~87 of an elemental resist. Maybe, it's just a thought.

I honestly think there is no utility flask that can outclass a well rolled magic resistance flask (for this build obviously) - besides maybe taste of hate. 7% max resist + a utility mod is hard to top. wha t flasks would you suggest using instead of the resist flasks?
