{3.2.0} Spectral Gods: [Life Based Spectre/Golem Hybrid Summoner | Clear Speed | End Game Bossing]

Did you ever make any videos? :) would like to see how much you slow down mobs, planning to run a similar build in the next 5 week HC race :)

Heyo guys. I updated my build for 2.2. Classic summoner has never been better.

I think this is the most damaging and most tanky version of this build ever. You'll be an absolute juggernaut.

Let me know if you have any questions so I can update my Q and A.

Leveling trees would be nice. I want to level as a summoner, but not sure which nodes to go for first in this build.

I'll see if I can do something like 30pts, 60pts, 90pts, full build

seems kind of expensive since +1 curse ammies are rather expensive. shit ones i guess are ok . but you will be hurting for stats big time.

also seems kind of odd that you didnt go for femurs of the saints for your zombies. since ... it is actually kind of what that staff is good for..... o.o

especially if you want vis mortis. good luck rolling a vis with zombies . its like trying to do spectres with a queens decree. awful . just awful on the chromes.

12% block on staves are a pretty good middle ground for defence.

btw anyone who thinks getting the enchants will be a piece of cake. you are WRONG!!!!!!! prepare for days of izaro grind-age .

I did list cheaper alternatives to your concerns:

+1curse ammy, doesn't matter if its shitty stats all you need is the +1 curse or a doedre damning

Femur of saints would require me to roll a staff which will not let me use advancing fortress and a shield and whirling blades which is a huge part of this build. Even if you wear a tabula a good es helm and shield and discipline will net you atleast 4k es. My summoner philosophy is built on movement spd for faster clears.

Vis mortis, I agree this isn't that great of a chest especially for end game map bosses. You want as much minion tankyness as possible since they do good damage with just gem levels and links. Could be something fun to use for easy map clearing.

Also getting a +1 to gems tabula(or rare chest) + an empower gem will net you some super high zombie life pools something like 17k.

The budget version of this build is cheap the ideal version is not =).

Yeah enchants is gonna be a fucking nightmare lol.

well there are a few other issue i see with advancing fortress. make no mistake for moving fast . nothing will beat zipping around with the op whirling blades . nothing.

but a larger concern is ... will the minions be able to clear fast enough to actually warrant needing to use blades?

and my experience tells me... no.. to expand+.

1 even with the most ridiculous clear speed setup for summoners (sire of shards reveneants with chain) you can literally out run their ability to kill things with about 80%+ movement speed which is trivial to get.

2 using zombies is good, i wont deny it , used a 6l femurs and it was fun. but a limiter here is the fact that convocation has a cool down. you will easily be whirling between packs and have your entire army trailing by several seconds. sure if you go far enough the minions will respawn on you, but that happens once every 1.5 - 2 screens.


my point being .. is whirling blades really that necessary? it will after all eat a gem slot and dictate to you what your chest is. (in this case a 5- 10 exa +1 tabby or just a tabby with no stats)

i say this because i am currently rolling my budget summoner for izaro and the only time i feel like i would need a movement skill is if i ran out of qs charges . otherwise between the + 70% qs and the +30% from flesh offering i am zipping around just fine.

i do get the core idea. whirling blades is the fastest move skill in the game. but it usually needs a skill that kills instantly to warrant its use.

You bring up good point.

I guess whirling blades is just my style I can't live without it on any build i make. Minions can surprising clear very fast and can match your whirling blades(sort of), I do wish that convocation had a lower cooldown that would be amazing.

I even like whirling blades as I travel between packs instead of walking. Or if I need to backtrack for masters or loot. It also serves as a tool to dodge ground effects(example being Atziri flameblasts).

From what I experienced. Vaal haste + flesh offering gives minions enough movement spd to zip around with you.

I do like to be the off-meta summoner while everyone else follows AngryAA or Ghazzy haha. I used to use smoke mine(use to teleport minions to you) and leap slam before whirling blades came out.

At the end of the day I will play for fun according to the play style I want to play then going for the most optimal damage route?

i never follow them, but our build styles do tend to match up in some respects.

i used to love rolling 1hand and shield necros.

But those staves , those staves are ridiculous if you build right.


sire of shards has the fastest trash clear speed.
and femures of the saints has the highest single target.

the things they can do are just nuts. like transition locking atziri . femurs can do that. total candy to watch too

then again i transition locked regular atziri with 4l zombies
