{3.2.0} Spectral Gods: [Life Based Spectre/Golem Hybrid Summoner | Clear Speed | End Game Bossing]

what do you guys think of a marauder summoner? saw 2-3 people streaming something similar to http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgEAAdwFLQZJC2ETbBQgFm8XLxiRGYUabBvIJKonLyj6KaUqmDWSNuk9_EGHQzFEBEp9SshNuU4qUEdUSVW1VcZYY1qRW69eE18_YEthIWegapNqrG6qcrt07XgNeWh674LHhO-FYId2iECI8YzPj0aQM5uhna6ezaC0oW2kGaSspqynCKcwqBiofaluqsSsr7XytkG3PriTuc28n76KwA_BBMOGxtjMvM9l0NDT-9Xt2QvdDeLq42rjn-eR6-7vDvIv8wbz3fZI99f56PqA-tL8xf4K

although it kind of sucks cant get all aura nodes or eb. but you can get tons more life.

I don't care about spell block i am more worried about my minions.
When i see my zombies dying to the lvl 72 labyrinth map lizard boss it's not a good thing.

That's why you run necro aegis. My zombie almost never die now. Use Saffell's frame + bone offering for labyrinth map boss, it casts EK, which is a spell.

The problem I am trying to solve now is to get my own tankiness up. Losing a shield is a big deal.

And again, it's not spell block, it's spell dodge. Dodge doesn't have shield recovery animation, it's a straight 16% mitigation unlike spell block, which can put you into stun lock and you making you block significantly less when facing rapid-fire spells.

So here's my question:

what aura are you guys running? Right now I am running Discipline hatred purity clarity, so I don't think aura effectiveness helps that much. These nodes are more for low life chars aren't they?

also, is there a significant difference between lvl 18 AA and level 22 AA? I don't mean number wise but how it plays out in game. I did some math, and I lose a bit more than 1000 mana and 50 mana regen if I do get acrobatic, which means that I can't sustain higher AA unless I move with lightning warp only.

It's really just 18% increased life node and iron reflexes compared to the witch build, but you lose multiple auras, lord of the undead, the ability to run AA, the ability to run aura effectiveness nodes and the ability to use cloak of defiance I don't think it end up being more tanky than the witch build tbh.

the guys i saw streaming though had 7k+ health. i only have 4.4k health with a near max hp roll on every slot.

His build has to be a lot different than this then. 7k+ health is impossible with only 238% health unless he is using kaom's heart.

Oh and also, since we are using cloak of defiance, our effective health pool is actually 40% larger. 4000*1.4 = 5600. You can get over 6000 effective health pretty easily.

the other mara who was streaming had more health than this one. he didnt get all those armor/block things next to duelist tree think he had more hp. how much health does a belly of the beast give.

am at 4500 hp when I go aegis. Not bad. Am forced to play a bit more careful and hit seething flasks often.

If your playing carefully you'll almost never get hit.

if you have to be 4500 life and have to play "carefully" i'll just die. lol.

Sounds like NA is a terrible idea for me at this point in time.

I'm amazed it makes such a big difference. You'd think with the super-duper meatshield you have you'd hardly notice. is it aoe spells that get you ?

Is he running a pure summoner or a dominating blow summoner? Max roll belly gives you around 700-800 more health compared to a rare chest I think. Not sure.

Shield is a huge boost in survivability man. You can get health, resist, block chance, spell block, all sort of goodness from it.
