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

There’s a lot to read here, but basically close to a build I’m running now and I was wondering what your thoughts are on pledge’s echo support vs the upgraded queens sword for an extra of basically every minion, plus all those stats.

Is that echo really better dps wise than all that juice?

Definitely got lucky with my PoH today. 157% for 2ex, then rolled the links for about 400 jewelers orb and only 600 fusing!

That sounds more like you scammed yourself.
First the spell damage doesnt matter for your minions and second when i checked PoHs with 157% spell dmg were 30-40c.

Welcome to PS4 prices. You cant buy a base PoH for less than 2-4ex, with no links and random sockets.

Have you checked the two prophcies that give a PoH?

Previously i wrote that i die oneshot a lot. I figured out why, so maybe will help somebody(noobs like me).

1 - Didnt cap Block Attack and Block Spell damage. To be honest, never thought about it. I knew we need cap resistances, but didnt heard about block.
So to fix it i go for:
- Mystic Bulwark on skill tree. I thought it was needed for mana before(idiot)...
- Better shield. With max 33% block + Chance to block spell damage.
- Amulet with block spell damage.
so after that with Rumi's Granite flask it helped for sure.

2 - Dont go to Acid Caverns map. I die there almost always fighting bosses or metamorph.

3 - Replaced Stone Golem with Animate Guardian.
- Feed him Kingmaker, feels super good. But before that replaced all gear that lack "increased minion life", was good even with 90k life, but raised it now to 130k. But since its 2ex weapon im crazy now, fear he die lol :)
- Using meatshield instead of minion damage on Animate Guardian sometimes, mostly to keep him closer(Defensive), GGG nerfed Kingmaker range, and Fortify now applies only on melee range which is very small.

4 - Replaced all gear to have increased minion life.

5 - Relocated some "5% to max life" skills into "minion leech" and "minion regenerate" Spectres now dont die at all.

6 - Had 7% chance to block crafted on my body, but replaced it with 10% life as extra energy shield. +700ES feels better to me.

7 - Using Bone Armour all the time. Before hoped that Immortal call will save me, but Bone Aromour spam feels much safer to me now.

PS i know its obvious things for most, but it wasnt at all for me.

Got some spare exalts. Wanna try PoH version and got few questions.

- Why some sockets must be unlinked?
Why skitterbots unlinked from generosity?

I know sometimes you must, if there is "cast when damage taken" etc. But why unlink clarity and flesh offering from Golem + Animate + Feeding Frenzy + Elemental Army? I tried to see difference in PoB, but cant see.
Im asking because i would probably want to keep mine Body at least maybe...

- For what need clarity there? I tried to see what uses mana, but cant see to be honest...

And if somebody can, give some general tips about PoH version.
What i will have to replace for sure and what to keep? I mean in Wand+Shield there are a lot of notes from Kayella. But for PoH there is not almost. Dont wanna switch and spend 10ex++++++ and realize that im idiot :)

Currently i have this gear and about 20ex:

Was able to solo HoGM last night (using Slave Drivers) after unsuccessfully searching for a carry. Thought I'd offer some tips for those who might need completion as well.

Had normal wand / shield combo in my first gear set and used Balefire with a few decent supports / second shield with Frost Bomb / Block Chance reduction support in my second gear set for easy swapping. Also, bring a curse immunity flask.

PS: (DO NOT USE ANIMATE GUARDIAN. He will die and you will lose all his expensive gear)




Before each wall I would pop my Spirit Offering combo and then apply / Bone Armour / Convocation. Then I would immediately swap to my Balefire gear set, lay a Frost Bomb at the feet of the enemies and hold scorching ray's beam on the pack. If things start getting messy I would swap back to my first gear set and try to recast my offering or convocate my minions to safety.

You'll end up needing to resummon zombies / spectres quite a bit, and it gets annoying taking offering / spell echo out each time, but don't be afraid to retreat and regroup.

is it worth to build up a spectremancer with triad grip for chaos damage (4 blank)?

Nice! You hit a monster of a regal. And yeah every failed dupe attempt you can sell the 6link base off for like 2ex. So really its like 2ex attempt to make something nutty. :) congrats

where can i read the trick? or which page does it appear on or where can i find an explanation of how it works
