Summoner end game and Maps

I'm also doing very good soloing maps. I haven't run anything higher than 75 yet tho, and I'm lvl82 atm, speccing into dual curse when i ding 83. My gear is pretty standard, I'll post it if anyone is interested.



The wand is a bit meh.. I'm on the lookout for something defensive, if that's even possible. And I would like to drop the saffels and use an archon so i could drop purity, and MAYBE in the future drop EB for more surivibility.

Shadowbeast 82... nice stuff.

I keep thinking I and should have to better gear, but I haven't been playing long yet so I guess the gear will come.

I got to 64 this morning but will be heading to visit my brother in SF on Monday for five days. We'll see how my laptop handles the spectres.

Look at my passive tree. Im at level 39 and running 4auras such as
And supported them with reduced mana. I think of my minions damage so i run for all the elements. Do you think this build is okay if i add those specs from items? I honestly want some advice from high leveled players. Need to farm more to get those items you've mentioned.

Did you post your build - or just that you can run 5 auras at level 39? I'm not an expert so can't help you with what is best. I do know that no one in this thread is trying to do what you are doing right now.

I think your post would be better in it's own thread. It is not really about Summoner end game and Maps.
Brutus. Do you even sync?

Thanks. Since I'm so new to this game - been playing just over a week now - it's hard not to "blindly follow" someone else's build.

My biggest problem now at level 59.5 is gear. Mine is utter crap. But it shows that a summoner can get to Merciless without having great gear. I did have to have people come help on a couple bosses, but, for the most part I have done it all alone.

I'm just not sure what I should be doing at this point? Should I work on finishing Merciless? Right now the zones where my quests lead are the same level I am or higher, but I haven't had trouble killing anything yet in ACT II.

Should I farm the ledge until I'm blue in the face? I farmed it the other night for about 2 hours and got exactly nothing except a few quality gems (5%-10%) but no armor or weapon upgrades.

At this point what would be anyones suggestion?

EDIT:

I farmed the Ledge for about 2 hours tonight and got a few drops, nothing spectacular - upgraded my robe. Also got three levels and am midway through 62 now.

I had a 12% conversion trap gem drop tonight and I used it for a bit - I didn't choose to level it - should I level it up? I know a lot of people swear by this trap especially in
maps?


Just so you konw act 3 is lvl 61 to 63 for the ENTIRE THING. I would stop farming act 1 and get to act 3 and start making a map database.

Oh I completely forgot to post my passive tree for my summoner. Here it is. I guess its not that good?

Sorry I forgot.
And let me show you my equipped items. My socketed clarity and purity auras are just there for them to level up. I can't use them yet cus my mana pool is not that high enough. I can only use 4 auras at the same time cus I cant link my 2nd reduced mana gem on hatred and anger.

I wanted to have Midnight bargain wand and a bone ullr boots so I can have 4 devastating specters at the same time but first i need to get nice items to trade for it.

What's with the rush to midnight? There are times in maps where I almost got one shotted and I have over 3k hp now. 30% hp reserve sounds too harsh I rather kill slower then die faster.

In response to ur earlier post remember that elemental auras only work on attacks not spells to ge the most out of those auras use something like tentacle not flame sentinel.

I use haste instead of hatred you,ll notice. A much greater dps increase

I got this build from a guide in youtube thats focusing on zombies and skeles dmg. I didnt know that theres items thats adds spectre so I used the same build. I guess its not that good? So I have to take off my other auras and use what auras? I only got 2 specters and always use ranged ones.

So you think my passives are just okay but the auras im using?

Most of my thoughts on the summoner build is in my guide already: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/107541

I'll try to focus on what your doing

- Those 4 mana nodes just are not worth it (if your serious about stacking auras get EB)
- Get the boots of ullr (its a fantastic item for summoners)
- Get a +2 Minion helm(place zombies inside)
- Rely on spectre for dps (they out damage the other minions by a mile)
- Get rid of the left side of the starting area and loop around from the right starting area, those nodes are mostly useless(am guessing you rushed to MI, which was smart, you can respec that later)

Again, this is a thread on End game summoner doing maps. I think you should start your own thread for these kinds of questions.
