Kay's Summoner Memorial Page | New Guide is linked inside!

So... Just geared up a build using this guide as a baseline a couple days ago and got some practice in chaining t16s. It's been great so far.

Decided it was time to try to fight Sirus. I was honestly surprised with how well the goatmen worked to stay alive, even without a meat shield support. Things went pretty well aside from me dying to storms, though it seemed to be taking quite a long time. It took me several minutes in his final phase, and he just seemed to be taking almost no damage. It was really surprising and i couldn't seem to figure out why.

Don't make my mistake. Don't swap to a fire using spectre, and forget to swap your arma brand out to storm brand... I got him down to about 5-10% DESPITE buffing the bosses resists to my minions with EE. Next time should be a breeze.

All this said, thank you for the incredible guide. It made for an excellent point to start from. Made a few adjustments to my personal preferences and it feels excellent.

Thats why i use lightning Risen Vaal Advocates against Sirus, no need to change anything else.

Was telling myself I've done upgrading gear, but decided to do just one last really FINAL upgrade, switched my wand for another with some more minion damage ;)

My spectres keep dying in Hezmin's Citadel.

They just stand in poison and die quickly.

Is there a fix for this issue?

I'm facing same problem, so far the only solutions I've come up with are either get more damage so you kill him before he kills the spectres, or just log and resummon them. Keep convocating during the fight. I added convocate to the wand so it procs more.

Thanks a lot, Respecting my ascendency did the job for now, it's so cool !
running T15 without trouble with only 3 spectres.

my shield already got +1 all rez, and my wand got a lot of damage to minions.. but yeah i need to make another one with +1 ; or even +2 to gems.

another question, might be stupid ; but if i manage to get :

+3 sockted minion gem - supported by lvl20 minion dmg - supported by conc effect

on the helmet, wouldnt it be better to socket the specter in it ? since as i understand it, they scale a lot with gem level

Glad could help! That's a really good q on the helm, and it makes sense to me. But being new to Necs hopefully someone with more experience can give you a good answer! GL with the build, and by the way if you get a good chest with a free mod, the hunter exalts are crazy good. I was going for the +1 curse and ended up with life regen. At first I was bummed, but then realized life regen on this build is really crazy good. Highly recommend that orb for our build.

Just to say I had this problem as well and indeed the fix for me was more DPS. Even with it, I had to port out once. I've reinvested in more gear since then, so hoping next time not to have to port at all!

I have 4 Spectre's and I don't see options to buff my DPS on a level i could kill him within a minute or so. My character profile is public, maybe you have idea's to boost my DPS to get this done?

Do you guys think solar guard is better or slave driver is better for high level delve ?

Hi,

firstly, thanks for an amazing guide!

Secondly - i have the option now to get a +1 chest, so far i´m running all slave drivers, is there a point in choosing something else for the fifth spectre? Say the buffing monkey perhaps?

thanks,
