Ok, I revamped the leveling section. Keep the feedback coming. I realize the leveling section was quite bad and outdated. Hopefully the new one will be better. I will update more skill tree at various levels tonight.

Thx for the update :)

Tried out Stone golems with the statues links were SG > RS > Multistrike > Min Damage > Melee Splash > Poison. If I got severed/united I'd drop poison for phys damage or play with IAoE. It's not clear speed meta or anything but they handle things quite nicely. Did a Xoph run very cleanly and have been doing a few red maps without issue.

I typically run a gen'd haste along with flesh offering so they get moving pretty damn quick and just constantly do their ground slam. Was considering ditching spectres from the main link and just having it linked with blood magic and using carnage chieftains so I can drop the victario's charity.

I've also given up on Zombies they're a complete waste of time in the build :(

You wrote for 4 golems we need anima stone and 2 primordial jewels. Isn't it 3 Primordial Jewels?

Otherwhise great guide and great build :D

I would also add that SRS is more than viable as a leveling skill from the moment you get melee splash now - especially since it means you can benefit from the minion skill points you take from early on.

After the rebalance from 50>20, each one is way more impactful individually, so casting one or two SRS will clear pretty much any trash and bosses just melt if you can pre-cast them. They are almost definitely faster to level with than caster spells for a summoner build. Put them in any +1fire weapon with splash and minion damage (both at jail entrance at ~8) and you're good to go till merciless if you want to take it that far.

Is this build viable in hardcore? im pretty new to the HC stuff :)

I have HC suggestions in the Mechanics section. Basically Dropping vis mortis for a high es chest and victario's potentially for a high es shield.

Physical Reduction and some tanky distractions!

Noted. I will add SRS as a potential leveling option as well as something else I like thats worked well for any characters I make. Ancestral warchief/shield charge facebreakers.

the passive tree for 1-11 isn't showing up, can you update that when you get a chance? :"D

Fixed.

Also I tried leveling with this setup on my second character of the league.

Scortching ray + CwC + firestorm + elementalfocus + controlled dest + conc effect

Its actually quite fun and good.

thank you!! I'm gonna start leveling one now.

I guess if I am going to play with blade vortex + chaos golem setup and use spirit offering then there is no point in taking misstrece of sacrifice? Should I go with Spirit Eater?

Potential stupid question. I notice you have Vaal Discipline and Discipline in the build. Is that correct? Do both stack?

Do the passives to reduce aura cost make room for discipline? I'm not quite there yet in my leveling, and just 15% of mana left.
