need summoner advice

what are the best gems to support zombies in a 6L?



this is what I'm using atm

3R+2B+1G

if you can't see the gems atm I'm running

Raise zombie+minion damage+Melee damage+Melee splash+Multistrike+Faster attacks

also I run auras and i was wondering what a good spell would be to spam to help my zombies? Atm i use EK because its slow and low cost and its Phys as well so it goes along with Vulnerability which i cast for the zombies

current auras i use are Purity of elements+hatred+haste+vitality

I can fit Discipline in there over vitality but then I don't have quite enough mana for vulnerability

Also i have queens decree on switch. I have the hammer with HP but I use the sword since i do lower ones as well and they never die then.

good spells to spam for your zombies = desecrate + increased duration flesh offering.


I not like melee-splash
you have so match minions, that all monsters get serounded
you nearly not have double splash hits

I have a very nice helm option for you
Skullhead:
Minions have 10% Chance to Block
Minions have +(300 to 350) to Armour
Minions Regenerate 2% Life per Second
this makes you not need vita-aura or to increase your minion resist above 75

Remove minion dmg and get minion hp, did you vaal it into its current state or was it like that before the vaal?

I vaaled it and nothing changed. Curious why minion hp instead? I use the sword on switch for the extra hp+damage. Would item rarity be better?

When i do piety runs it can take a little bit. She usually gets one transform in. When she transforms (i kill blue portals) I just tank her/minions tank and i have her down before she comes out.

if i took minion damage how much would it slow me down?

what would you suggest instead of melee splash? It increases the damage overall (i think) when it's leveled and groups just melt. I'm not looking to buy anything. I broke the bank to try to 6l my armor ._.

Isn't remote mine better than minion damage?

I think this thread discusses it https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/573693

If you want just plain damage switch minion dmg for remote mine.

The difference between minion damage and remote mine is not that great.

minion damage/20 => 77% increased
remote mine/20 => 49% more

let's assume 80% damage from the tree.

(1 + 0.8 + 0.77) = 2.57

(1 + 0.8)(1.49) = 2.68

A 4% difference.

minion damage at 20% quality is 92%, which means 2.72 multiplier, so it's better.

the goal is to keep minion damage AND use remote mine.

i don't snapshot with TR, so i can't do that.

the thing is, that if you use remote mine and have to summon in combat, you've got a problem.

now nobody else who runs a summoner EVER has to do that, but I do, because obviously i have a terrible build for some unknown reason.

so it's much better for me to give up the 10% damage bonus but be able to summon quickly.

zombie is not smart, he is stupit

if zombie attack monster, and you attack other monster
zombie will stop attack monster, and start attack the monster you attack/curse/agro/hug

test a few interactions when skelletons/rage spirits/curses/totems/etc also interfear in the agro-mechanics

this makes zombie minion speed be mass dps/tank/underrated

that's why flesh offering is imba
and you could make +100%speeds for the zoo

I thought remote mine was disabled for minions some patches ago? Bummer for me then

You should try to use the 6L to snapshot some solid spectre and use a +2 Minion Helmet with a empower +2 to have zomb lv24
