[3.3] [HC] Torchbearer's Off-Screen Summoner - [Command 90+ Minions] - [HC/Uber endgame viable]

wow, nice build! really looking forward to give this one a try.

Since i am quite new at summoners, what stats shoudl i be looking for on gear? apart from + life, mana and es and minion damage.....

also, i will be playing this one on Softcore, is there anything i should keep in mind? (might drop one of the defensive gems for offense for example.
Nevermind, i just read you are working on that, will follow the hc one for now....not fond of dying anyway and damage looks pretty ok.

thanks again for the great guide!

In game since Minotaur League..
hello

iam switching to this build, iam lvl86 now

i lvld as zombie + spectre mancer




*


the unique jewels to dust got nerfed in 3.00

so theres no extra skellies from this jewels anymore :/

and its way overpriced imo in poetrade.....

it is limited to one : /
but i found one from dust on my way to low maps :)

it offers : Summon 2 additional Skeleton Warriors with Summon Skeleton
+1 second to Summon Skeleton Cooldown

and i bought me one elder helmet for the phys/global dmg part, iam testing wich one of these helmets are better :

+80 to Armour
44% increased Armour and Energy Shield

--------
Elder Item



at later lvls iam planing to craft an elder bone helmet

they at the moment very expensive to buy imo
they will drop and can be crafted , np : )

as for the the setup i have is alrdy very usefull and can facerole all the maps
the zombies and spectres alone will do this....

with the skellies it just gets more fun and safer at bosses ! :)


*

earlie lvls:
i did full run with IIQ eqipp on low maps and now switching to tanky gear setup

iam doing at next the full prophecy : the unbreaving queent I - V
for the nice gloves to get, working like an second hatred aura :)


*


iam a bit unhappy with the jewel nerf ( to dust ) , will see how it works now
theres also a idea in my mind to use skellie mages
with 3 of these unique jewels, but then has to be some changes to the helm mods, elder or shaper mods rly the best for this build imo


*



for hard parts bosses or lab iam going to get supertanky



curse on hit / enfeble / temp chains

Hey, just wanted to say thanks for really solid build and wanted to ask what is the alternative for magna eclipsis since it is not easy to get it in the early league.
Is it one of solaris/lunaris shields because of +2 to gems or that buff isnt that great without elemental aegis and i can just use good old lioneye rimorse, or maybe even try something with dual wielding stuff with inc minion damage rares from the temple.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.
And also the same question about the scourge.

You can keep using Queen's Escape before you get Scourge/Shield up until endgame, it's a solid choice, but you will lack in defense a bit because of it.

If you really want to use a shield/1h then I suggest Clayshaper or one of the Dream swords & either of the Lunaris/Solaris shields for the +2 gems.

Cheers!

Thanks a lot for answer, i really appreciate it :).
But i have one more thing to ask if you dont mind, here is my quick setup just to start maping
Spoiler

So my next goal should be just 20-20 gems and the scourge, or did i miss something important?
Sorry if i bothering you, but it is just my first hc character and i really wanna achieve something high with it. Thanks :3

Not a bother at all my friend.


What you could do now is just save up for Scourge.

After that you can either get an elder helmet with 1 or 2 bonuses for your minions on it or try to 5 or 6 link your body armour > put your CWDT setup into your helmet and add additional links to your Summon Vaal Skeletons gem, such as Multistrike/Brutality.

After that's done you can solely focus on just purchasing best in slot gear and melting through bosses like you're a hot knife in butter.

If you can't purchase a 6link or elder helmet yet and still want to do high tier maps, you can always swap your gloves for Grip Of The Council. That should add a hefty amount of DPS to your kit.

Hey sorry if this question has been answered and I just missed it, but what changes would you make to this build to make it a more DMG and less survival build for a SC character?
Having a blast with the build so far and tweaking your build for SC.
Unfinished though, but is the Passive Tree ok?
If not, any suggestions to improve on it?
