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

I think it works for RS summoned after buffing (check the speed of RS with and without the buff).

What about increasing overall dps with dual totem SRS ?

You lose 1 link, totems do -50% less, and it costs quite a bit of passive pts to go down there. It doesn't seem worth imo. I think self cast is more powerful.

Self-cast is hands down more powerful now with the introduction of echo (which cannot be used with totems). There was a thread before that compared totem SRS to self-cast SRS and the only time totems won (by a small-ish margin, mind you) was when Soul Mantle came into the picture and you had 3 totems casting SRS. Again, this was before spell echo, so I imagine totems are completely out at this point, even with 3 vs. self-cast (they really do need a buff of some sort, I believe. Skills that you can actually, feasibly use with totems are getting less and less).

Edit: Found the thread I was talking about.

You can self cast and use totems, it's just a way to add more RS on the screen. But its true it cost a lot to go down there.

not only that but self cast+ totem would mean that you need another 6 link.

btw matt, what about plege of hands? a 7 linked SRS should be nice.

According to someone who has been doing a lot of SRS testing, the only time Pledge becomes viable is when it is actually 6-linked, which makes it seem like quite the luxury item...

Unrelated: also now that we have the numbers. A plain +3 fire staff is about 534k dps with Emp L3 and a +2 fire 22% cast staff is about 510k dps with AF instead of Emp. I also bought a 5L pledge of hands to test and I can confirm it sucks unless it's 6L. The 100% max mana made my mana go something like 2.4k -> 3.6k, and unreserved pool 500->900, regen 250->310. Glad I was able to sell it quickly for what I bought it.

Like mentioned above not only is that really expensive, you need a 6L minimum to beat a +2/+3 staff in terms of dps. Al-thought that mana boost is really really nice.

I guess am done with POE until the next update. I have a pretty good idea after playing around on what to do to make summoner the most effective after snapshot removal.

anyone know how much life convocation heals?
is it possible to run with 2 convocations? running from side to side in the bossroom in courtyard could save my minions i think

Goes from 18hp/sec at level 1 to 100hp/sec at level 20. I don't think you can run two.

Loving the build so far. It's been pretty easy to level as soon as you get SRS.

Two questions that have probably been asked:

1) Minion Instability, why not? Bosses especially kill tons of the skulls and they have nice HP. Been using it during leveling, very handy.

2) Why are you running Grace and buffing evasion but not running Iron Reflexes?
