3.14 KING OF ALL SUMMONERS. Zombies & Skeletons & Spectres on STEROIDS! | League-Start to End-Game

Hi there Brunowa

Just want to say thanks for the amazing build.. never thought I would play a summoner again it has been years and I can't believe all the QOL improvements to summoners since I last tried one.. but this build in particular is pretty insane. Can't believe how fast I got this one off the ground (started on sunday) but here it is .. just have some questions if anyone could answer I would really appreciate it

1. I am curious what the consensus is about the best combination of auras..

Are we using actual haste aura or only vaal haste?
Pride?
Blasphemy + enfeeble/vul ?
Aspect of spider has not been mentioned? (I could put this on my chest below - have suffix open)
Dread banner

In POB I tried a 4 link with enlighten lvl 4, Pride, Haste and Dread banner - leaving 4% mana unreserved - cutting it fine. For cursing, could use the Spectres which curse and if mana is too low - can pick up the reduced aura reservation nodes at top left (sovereignty) - what do you think?

2. What about carrion golem vs chaos golem?

3. Someone mentioned Impale for zombies which seemed interesting - but Forceful skewering annoint and watcher's eye do not work correct? Since they require us to hit ourselves - but still Impale sounds tempting.. Impale still good without watchers eye and forceful skewering annoint? I could white socket my Queen's Decree and swap impale on bosses?

4. Best jewel mods? I am guessing we favour abyss jewels because of the 'increased minion dmg if used a minion skill recently'?


Here is my setup - had to drop seven league steps to craft these boots and hit 1k STR. I will likely swap Dread banner from chest with golem in ring for more overall benefit but recolouring chest will be a bitch.



I also just realised that I haven't even fate upgraded my Queen's Decree - lol

i was wondering if the spectre proximity shield blocks like shaper balls and so on in uberelder fight?

+2 efficient Training
+1 To dust
+1 Brawn

15 Zombies, 5 Spectres, Chaos Golem, Animated Guardian.

SpeedClearing and Mapping seems gr8, although occasionally im getting 1shot with flasks etc up from random t15/16 bosses.

For Example last night when to a 100sh quantity map, non reflect/ Curse mobs t15 phoenix map. Couldnt kill the boss for like 35sec pure dps and my adds kept dying.

Also I find Vaal Scellies to not preform so gr8 in situations on closed areas since its overwhelming and adds cant dps since there is no room.

So im thinking if i should
1. Get a watchers eye with phasing on haste my mobs got prerma phasing
2. Get the dead reckoning jewel that created ranged skeleton mages, but then i need to get jewel sockets such melee splash and melee physical dmg gems on chest and get iron grip from talent tree to buff them from strength.

I think Plan 1 seems better, but cant be sure!

Also i found that the carnage chieftain from act 7 give power charges instead of Frenzy charges, Should i get 2 that give power charges and 2 that give frenzy charges and 1 evangelist since 3 energy shields seems like too much, or power charges dont benefit us?

P.s. I got a KingMaker setup animated guardian.

Gonna try UberElder Tonight!


Opinions?
Any ideas on equipping this in zombie setup? Seems like an amazing boss killer.

WARNING: if your Animated Guardian dies you also lose all the gear you equipped on him. To prevent this I would recommend not using him until your gem level is 19 (more HP). AG is not essential, you can kill everything in the game without him, but it's a very nice quality of life.


There is a craft in the Bench that says"Items drop on Death if equipped by the Animated Guardian". Maybe worth it while levelling up,...or if your AG dies often.

go for Indomitable Army in your tree
Greatest minion build in PoE's history - Really? You can literally have 2-3x the damage output this build has with other equipment.

With the Baron you are wasting a potential 7link helmet. Also wasting your amulet and gloves just to get strength which only translates in a bit over 100% inc damage for your minions. and pretty useless leech, like if you are planning on getting hit a lot. The reality is, you get hit hard a couple of times in a split of a second? you die. Just use bone offering + glancing blows for max block to get an aegis aurora kind of effect.

Queen's escape? You can get similar movement speed with two convoking wands and get up to +4 to minion skill levels if you're rich enough.

Use spectres for damage. 5 fully buffed soul eater multistrike-jumping kitava's heralds are much better than a couple of unrealiable frenzy charges
