what is max level i should make the gem so i can still get evangs in merciless?

The bug is in the difficulties themselves, or at least merciless it seems, as Desecrate does not act as it should in that difficulty.

well it worked like this for me in cruel and normal. it only summoned when gem was a specific level around level of zone. i imagine it works same for merciless

Is it feasible to run righteous fire yourself with evangelists/zombies? I havent used it much, but was wondering if it would be as strong as a (pre-nerf) buffed BM aura? or does player righteous fall well short.

It'd require a significant investment in skill points to reach a stable fire resist/regen point without using flasks.

something like
+4 max resists from passives, 2 in witch area 2 in marauder area
+8 max resist phoenix shield
+8 max resist lvl 23 purity of fire with +60% aura buffs.
4-5% life regen is about break even for a ES based build, but need more to actually regen shields (like running chaos dmg maps as ES build basically).

Theres the potential for another +2% max resist from corrupted amulet + armor, but thats a very large stretch. The points needed to reach the marauder section would have to be taken from the grace/iron combo i guess.

if you want to do that you need to be a full build don't think it would work when a summoner is allready a passive point heavy build as it is. but full build RF builds do alot of damage. i think much more than BM but a much smaller range aura. bms aura was huge.

sorry mattc3303 if this has been asked somewhere allready. but how good would the survivability be if you went your build with IR but instead of getting EB/AA you just go life/es hybrid. my thought is that aa is not really that good vs high hitting targets its more of a counter to white/blues but it seems like grace/IR should counter smaller mobs fine enough. being able to have an extra 2/3k es on top of 4/5k life seems pretty good to me. but chaos rolled maps seem like a pain though.

@Matt, The armor you are using now, having MOM 10% compared to the passive node which gives 30%. How come this armor is so good compared to the passive? The self buffs you are getting from passive tree increases 10% MOM from armor or am I missing something?

Also the damage reduction from MOM, does it works only with physical or it reduces 10% damage of all type (elemental/physical/spell/chaos)?

its not 10%. its MoM + 10% its 40% chest.

its all damage reduction so long as you have mana.

presumably its additive with the corrupted mods as well, which seem insignificant on their own but stacked with that armour are actually very very strong.

@above poster, AA is very useful vs some otherwise nasty monsters like the museum boss or similar that deal very high DPS in small fast shots. piercing vipers or something as well which your minions can't block. evangelists arent fullproof :)

and yeah righteous fire isnt a great option, not because of the damage (its great with just basic supports, no passive investment) but the range on the skill is really bad. Thats what needs the large passive investment for aoe increase. Its only a fraction of BM's aoe.

not to mention you need like 90% fire resist and around 10% passive life regen. if you just flat out use it you will be put to 1 hp in 2 seconds even with 75% fire res.

Yes as mentioned above its a 40% chest. I mentioned briefly in my cloak build video that I can absorb roughly a 1400 hit, dealing 550mana and the rest to life. Most likely in the regular grind of whites/blues/rares you won't be getting hit for that much.

Am going to take care of my physical defense with arctic armor. Going to try to get the level as high as possible and if I have room run immortal call increased duration with enduring cry, codt.

Although for that slot am really enjoying pulling everything in with vaal cyclone. I will need to 6socket a chest to fit everything I want in.

So would mean getting rid of EB which means u have a lot harder time with mana regen which greatly benefits AA and MoM. The best defense in my opinion is a mix to get a high effective life pool. Same concept as league of legends you don't have just a high life pool you want to get your resistances up. MoM and AA is just more resistances that stacks on top of your armor and All Res.

AA alone is pretty strong but when stacked with MoM and your other resistances its very strong. Its letting me use vaal cyclone in 7x maps without taking too much damage.
