this is more of a progress post and learning experience than guide. most of the stuff in the post requires you to know basics of a summoner. (there are great tips elsewhere to find summoner related stuffs elsewhere in the forums)

thx for reading. :>

What I don't get is, why do you have Empower linked to your Wrath?

Tate what's your point of view on Knitted horrors?

Haven't had time to test em out. Heard some good things.

So, with Empower you now give 23% more damage to Revenants instead of 22%?

Yep, and that doesn't count the aura effectiveness. Which amplifies the damage even more.

done, boisss.

congrats man, awesome

Could you answers a few questions I have about your build?

-At what tier maps would level 70 revenants start to have trouble with? I recently ripped on an SRS/hybrid summoner and I found that my level 68 flame sentinels were starting to have trouble around tier 5-7, but it may be because only spec'd into 30% minion life.

-How often (or unoften) do your revenants die in T7+ maps?

-Why do you go for so much life regeneration in the build? Do you believe it is an underestimated defense mechanic?

-Why go for a hybrid armor/es chest when you can go for a full es chest? On my summoner, I managed to get 7.4k eHP at around level 78 (4k life + 3k ES) but I had literally no armor. It was my first time playing a hybrid build and I'm not sure if it was a mistake or not to go all in on life and es with no physical damage mitigation.

-Won't the zombies be really squishy without a +2 minion helm?

-How is the single target/bossing with this build?

-Should we be prioritizing minion life or damage in the jewels?

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to trying out your build.
