I think perhaps if not using hatred and swap added cold with some other gem like minion damage or added lightning, then minions only do physical, chaos, fire and lightning damage so we can use cold damage to trigger EE (maybe also apply curse) which will give more damage then hatred?

You're on the right track, I've been playing this build for awhile and surprised that someone (thread starter) is actually playing it as well, haha.

I use 3 auras, wrath-anger-haste-enlighten on a 4 link on my Victario's Influence Chest. Along with Conqueror's Efficiency Jewel with the reserved mana nodes top left and right, you can run another aura. I chose Discipline to up my mana pool as I'm running Eldritch Battery as well. And since I have 1.2k ES, I run Mind Over Matter for extra defense.

As you said, EE is indeed very good for this build, I run it with Curse on Hit Enfeeble for higher maps or Elemental Weakness for lower maps. [Freezing Pulse-CoH-GMP-Enfeeble]

My gem links on my Jorrhast is Minion Damage, Added Lightning, Elemental Focus, Lesser Poison, Melee Splash and WED. I dropped Inc. duration cause I have a Speaker's Wrath with Increased Animate Weapon Enchant, and GMP does not add anything to my melee weapons so I dropped it as well.

Ramping up on higher maps is the tricky part though, I tried to use Writhing Jars to proc Jorrhast's animating at the start of the map but it doesn't always work as it has a 25% proc rate. BUT, all you need is 1 proc to have 2 weapons, and 2 weapons is good enough to start the map- I've done this multiple times on a T15 beachhead map- this build is crazy good for the boss in beachhead.

My Gear, excuse the SRS set-up, been testing somethings but it hasn't been working out.

Spoiler

Alternatively this build can switch to bow totem animator with just switching out the helmet.

Spoiler

Gem set-up will be [Spell Totem-WED-Melee Splash-Minion Damage-Added Lightning-Animate Weapon]

There is one thing you can try -

With Raise spectre, raise the mob on the coast that summons the Scorching ray totem.
I noticed when these Spectre's totems kills mobs they get credited to me and proc the spectral wolves on my Scourge.

See here on how to raise high level ones, at the end of his guide

Would need to spec into Soul Weaver for best effect.
Also extra fire resist debuff for your minions.


The Wickerman spectres also use Righteous Fire, and may also proc your hammer's AW

so you are the one that bough the enchanted speaker for 2.5 ex :)
i feel that the ramp up is the important part, so hatred help alot to the SRS dmg... also use essence of hysteria gloves for the SRS (as semi 5L).
i feel the clear speed with the ranged AW is so much better, so i much prefer gmp than melee splash...
also can you link your tree?
done so far to lvl 12 maps and problem at all with my new setup, ramp up fast and clear fast, just need a bit more life
