Summon Spectre: A point to summoning Blue/Yellow mobs?

Maybe only one modifier could be transferred?

or weaken the summoned spectre by lowering its health/attack/damage/etc even further?

There are several ways to balance the extra abilities of having a blue/yellow spectre.

This would make a awesome keystone.

It would be fun to pick up a rare/blue alchemist who rolled with multiple projectiles. But I can see where it could get out of hand..

Other Allies Can't Die, the energy shield one gives ES equal to allies health (i think).. Holy crap. The haste one just seems so much better than ours can be. Suddenly you'd have Spectre summoners who carried parties with crazy auras.

Prevent us from making zombies out of golems, ghosts, etc....

Mark can you work on a Keystone for spectres ? To allows us to summon any rarity (excluding bosses) and can only have 1 Spectre.

Unless you are already working on something that you are not telling us :D

I'd rather some way to store spectres you summoned before. It's a real buzzkill to have to zone in somewhere you aren't interested in farming just to get a creature you want as a spectre and have to head back every time they die.

Nice idea! You need to catch it like a Pokemon and then you can summon it everytime you want. It sucks when you have an DC or crash, that everytime your spectres are gone! :/

^Yeah like the iron golem in Diablo that stayed even after logging out

*Wants a LMP additional life extra fast life regen more crits voidbringer*

It would be STOOPIDLY over powered, like crazily over powered. Since specters have unlimited duration you could roll around with the regen aura, armor aura, ES Aura and all the other tanky auras and an 'Other Allies cannot die'-aura Mob and be invincible.

Or an 'allies deal substantial extra physical damage' and rock EK or just basic attack with a Marauder or something...

There is a reason Dominating blow only lasts for like 6 seconds.

Transfering elite/rare affixes would kind of eliminate the point of supporting a spectre gem.

you can get an LMP, additional life, extra fast, more crits voidbearer - on a 5L. Toss in Necromantic aegis and you even have life regen. Which is also why any kind of storage for spectres would be OP.

Good point!

This keystone would definitely have to strip any aura-abilities from the newly made spectre.

I don't see a problem with a resurrected monster no longer having any ally-affecting skill... just having the extra-life/damage/projectiles/elemental damage types/etc type of boosts would still make such a keystone worth considering.
