No problem :).

I am very excited about the persistent aura and spectre changes for 3.0.2. Can't wait to do some science next week!

It's gonna be pretty spicy on stream. I'll, of course, update the guide if I find something cool. I'm messing around with Premiere at the moment. Hopefully I'll be able to make video guide to accompany the build as well.

Soon(tm).

Do the SRS summon the spectral wolves because i seem to almost never have any wolves.

SRS kills do not summon the wolves, only your kills does. That said, just think of the wolves as extra free MTX (they dont do much). ;P

Hi!

In terms of DPS, yes. At the end of the day, it's just super fun shield charging quickly across the map, picking up items while everything 2-3 screens away dies :D


I also answered this a bit in the Origin Section of the guide:

"I wanted to finally play a summoner/necromancer in patch 3.0 after the announced minion buff/quality of life improvements (which ironically did not affect what I did at the end xD). In the 3.0 Beta, I made a character after reading some guides and getting some ideas. I wasn't’ exactly sure about which minion skill yet but I wanted something with Summon Raging Spirits in it. The popular way to go seemed to be with a +3 Staff. Baron of course was a thing so it made sense to stack strength. I originally wanted to do a 1k+ Strength Baron Build with Leeching Zombies and Vaal Pact. I then realize this was unrealistic and even if achieved, sacrifices too many defenses and opportunities. The beta started and the necromancer went pretty well. My first version used SRS (on a staff) and Zombies. Even with the threshold jewels and minion speed. The Zombies were super derpy and died in the higher level/difficult content. Getting rid of them (and having cast when damage taken - immortal call) was a great decision/quality of life improvement.

The build so far was OK but I didn’t like using a staff at all! I missed the speediness of shield charge and having a lot of sockets for skills (I liked spamming buttons :D). It was then I thought about how the SRS were missing quite a bit (it might be hard to tell because they attack so fast but you do hear the “whiffing” sound). This was especially noticeable on evasive and shroud walker enemies. I also realized there wasn’t many sources (if at all) to get added accuracy on minions (other than using added accuracy gem). Then an epiphany came: Necromantic Aegis and Lycosidae! As a side note, I absolutely love Path of Building (poeurl.com/bxhb) because it lets me nerd out with numbers and min maxing. Openarl is a god. This program estimated (based on somewhat incomplete/vague data that GGG provided) that the shield added insane damage/consistency to the build. I definitely noticed how much more powerful the minions are in the game. This was very exciting since I now have a core to with and improve the other components."

Thanks for answering! :D

As I mentioned earlier, I absolutely love this build and made it to lvl 93 so far. I already bought a 20% reduces Flask charges used belt and will respec into the flask nodes once I hit 94 in order to make use of the 5 flask charges as you described it.

I may need to add that I never got as deep into the game mechanics as you guys but I keep playing people's builds. After having taken a break of 6 months or so, I tried out your build which is amazing. (as well as some other ones for which I mis-skilled some of my standard chars :/)

There are a few things however, that keep giving me a hard time occasionally:

1. When switching to MF Gear my resistances are not completely capped which sometimes one shot kills me on t13+ maps. Would you swap some of the minion damage / life gems for some life / res gems in order to get eveerything capped while mfing ?

I use this gear for mfing:



and swap out:





2. How well does Increased Elemental Damage With Attack Skills work with SRS? Since in theory SRS deal 50% Fire Damage, I thought getting EDwAS is a good idea. Am I wrong? I corrupted an Amulet and now got it EDwAS as an implicit mod. Is it worth it or would another implicit mod be more helpful?

3. With regard to your lightning dmg on the rings to proc EE. I suppose my cold dmg on one of the rings work as well or is there a reason why you use light dmg intead?

4. Shaper. I tried it once and failed after not having done this in months. Were I more used to this boss, I believe I should be able to kill him with my current character. However, while I did Shaper the SRS could not effectively handle the minions that spawn from the mirror so Zana got killed each phase. Is it better not to swap to Elemental Focus / Elemental DMG with Attack support but rather Melee Splash instead?

5. I got my Gems to 20/20 mostly. SRS is lvl 21 and empower lvl4. How important is it to get the support gems to lvl 21 as well? I suppose it will not make too much of a difference?

Please take a look at my Tankskin character which is the one I am currently playing and give me your feedback.

Thanks again for sharing this great build and I look forward to reading your comments.
