[3.4]Soulwrest in Peace - A Dirt Cheap Summon Phantasms Build - Shaper Down w/ Video
" FYI, link your spectres to blood magic and they will spam charges infinitely. WIthout BM they oom fast that's why they don't always have charges up. |

" Hello there! So, to explain, AoF is so that Smite (which does Lightning damage normally) is converted to Fire, and we want to be using Smite since it further increases our Minion's DPS, but we don't want it to trigger EE on lightning damage, because that will reduce our Minion damage. So with AoF, every attack we, the player, use is now converted entirely to Fire damage, Smite now procs EE on Fire damage, making our enemies weak to Lightning/Cold, which is good for our Minions since we are converting Half our Minion's damage to Lightning and also running Hatred/Grip which gives us a ton of Cold damage. Hopefully that helps explain what is happening. :) " We are running BM in our Spectre's. :) |

You thought about taking out Convocation on the helm and putting in Animate Guardian to buff minions even more?
| |
Why do you have Avatar of fire when it doesn't effect your minions?
| |
Thanks bud, really helped. Also, is consecrated path essential to the build? it felt really awkward to me so i've since switched to leap slam.

Thanks for awesome build. I really enjoy it so far. I've been using Added Fire instead of Faster casting cause od colors i have. Been OP so far. Keep up the good work! :)

" Actually, I do believe it affects minions since the build uses physical to lightning. Correct me if I'm wrong. Last edited by Kiyopon on Sep 16, 2018, 9:23:32 AM

Twenty Phantasms flooding the screen with projectiles is one thing I love about Soulwrest builds.
Personally I'm playing a weird Elementalist version. Proccing Phantasms with Volatile Dead, while doing my own damage. I'm not running a Spectre but I am running with Golems, I know weird. When I recolour my helm I'll run Vitality, this and my Stone Golem should be enough to keep me alive, and keeping my Phantasms alive I just take a lot of minion leech nodes, particularly the one above Gravepact. |

" I have thought about it, but I like Convocation a little more just because of the QoL it adds to clearing maps. AG is a really strong alternative, though, if you feel like Convocation isn't adding much for you. " Consecrated Path is not essential, it's just a skill I like. Leap Slam is definitely a good alternative if you prefer it. I just like that Consecrated Path drops Consecrated Ground to give us some additional Regen. |
|
" Just remember to change your tree off AoF and drop Phys to Light in Summon Phantasms for something else that way you are taking advantage of EE properly. I'd probably not use Consecrated Path either. Otherwise you'll be reducing your minion's damage by making enemies all resist fire, which is super sad face. :( |
