Prepare for minion nerf?

Go do some high level maps with damage mods and come back to us about how overpowered minions are lol

In my oppinion before they nerf builds like minions they should buff the unviable ones first, i.e. CI (they should give it some ES bonus back, like 20%), pure lightning witch (i.e. buff Arc) and so on.

CI dose not need to be buffed LOL.
also they should nurf LA before anything else because it is the most OP skill ingame.

I have a frost summoner CI witch,

And I am liking her so far. I know if I went lightning I would allow my minions to do more damage, but I find the dps satisfying.

O and if minions did get nerfed, I would drop my summoner and start something else. I dont feel i am overpowered at all doing maps. I feel like I am doing just fine.

I really don't think theres anything overpowered about minions, at most skeleton totem is a bit on the strong side.

wait until you get an endgame map with alchemists, or anything that leaves patches of fire on the ground - Your zombies will drop like flies and your Spectres wont stand a chance.

Speccing into all the minion nodes usually doesn't leave you with a hell of a lot of health to get by on, so once they're down you will swiftly drop too.

Once skeleton totem is nerfed, which seems inevitable, summoners will not be able to do much on their own.

If you believe summoners to be overpowered, try playing one to level 80 on HC.
