Thanks a ton for the build! White and Yellow maps were easy but now i'm in higher tier maps and it's getting a bit tougher. What should I upgrade now? I have about 4 ex to spend. I know I need a +1 wand but whats the best way to craft it? is bound fossils best or are essences good too? What should I get after that? Any other tips on my current build would be great as this is my first time playing necromancer and I have no idea what im doing. Thanks!

Since your Convoking Wand doesnt have any other minion stats you can get a weapon with 70-74% minion dmg and chance for your minions to deal double damage for 1c.
Besides that your helmet seems to be the easiest replacement for little money and you should still have 4ex left to get a decent 1+ spectre chest.

Edit: Ok, scrap that, the cheapest int-based chest is at 7ex atm.

How do you even manage to raise the correct specters with the PoH setup lol? just got bored and decided to try it out on my Necro and that has to be the most frustrating thing I've ever seen. Even if you take the SE gem out, PoH still makes it cast 2 more additional times, and you can't gem swap specters without losing them.

There is a part about this in the OP somewhere. 2 identical Raise Spectre gems, on in the first slot of the PoH, another in the alt weapon setup wand first slot. They shouldn't despawn. Details are somewhere in the OP.

Regarding the FF linked to zombies, I was looking at the top spectre necros on PoE.ninja and most of them use FF with spectres, and then Elemental Army + Phys to lightning on zombies. Not sure about the necessity on the PtL, pretty sure Wrath+Generosity alone is enough to make the exposure from EA be lightning.


All minions attack what you attack, so if you do nothing, they also attack nothing. So, linking FF to the spectres will make them attack everything even if you go make a coffee or alt-tab out.

Sorry but this is plain wrong! I run:
raise spectre
minion damage
spell echo
ele focus
deathmark
conc effect
and even when I do nothing but running through a map they kill everything. I do not have to attack anything to make them attack!

I guess it will take a while to get 3 Slave Drivers, but it is possible :)

4 with +1 Spectre Body Armor.

What about 5? Tho 4 is more than enuff I guess ;)


Are you sure you can't summon 3 specters with your current gem and ascendancy? Put raise specter on your bar and mouse over it. How many specters does it say you can summon at the top of the tooltip?


Yes, my bad... :D

Can summon 3 Spectres, seems was too hyped for new Atlas and stuff and somehow forgot when I was able to raise the 3rd one, noobikus :D
Can anyone tell me how to strengthen my setup? plz
So i got to the final awakener boss and this fight is impossible for minions due to a stupid mechanic that instakills your spectres and minions, you have no control over it whatsoever and this actually pisses me off finding out about this.

SPOILERS:
Spoiler
His arena consists of huge degen zones that i assume either does physical damage or chaos damage. I could not even get to him without having all my minions randomly wondering into the zones which either instakills them or almost kills them if i use convocation but even if i do that, they still wander into the degen fields and just die, the boss also moves around alot and creates more degen fields that will absolutely kill your minions.

Yeah just spawned him and this is impossible to play as a summoner. I think this is the first boss that is extremely hard for summoners. Might have to reroll if I want to kill this guy :(

Wait, is this for real? I mean, UE could be a bit of a challenge before if you didn't keep your spectres out of Shaper's beams, but, this can't be for real.

EDIT: The reason why I'm questioning these claims is because of how many players in 3.9 are running SD Spectres, especially in HC/SSFHC.
