Turns out I have all the gear I have to do this sans the gems. I'm a bit nervous speccing into this. a commenter on the reddit thread says the DPS sucks, even on a "OP bow".

I know either way I'll have a summoner to play with, but I'd rather not waste a full respec. :/

Also, if you go to Scion Start, CI can also be considered since aside from the Bow and the helm, you're not really gear dependent. Discipline hurts the MI proc a bit though.

FWIW, I cleared Merciless Piety solo with the build at level 60 with an Infractem and otherwise crap gear. It's not the fastest build I've ever played, but it's definitely not crap/"DPS sucks".

The tree for this build is extremely flexible. The only real power nodes on the tree are skill duration. Everything else is bonus. Aura-supporting seems a clear winner and gives you something to work toward on the tree, aside from that it's just defense defense defense.

I'm positive the clones don't use your passive tree. Skilling life% does not increase their life (it's on the tooltip). They behave as expected of any minion.

So...will this work?

trap + Blind + Piece + Clone (either one of it) + Curse on Hit + Assassin's Mark

Shameless thread necro.
Mirror Arrow in Null's Inclination. Do the clones summon clones?

Sadly no.

"Cast Socketed Minion Spells on Kill with this Weapon"
Bold mine. MA/BA are not spells.

Yes, but Summon Skeleton etc. are. Put Summon spells in your bow, and let your Clone summon minions? D: Would that work?

Actually in my tests it did work. Clones will summon things if they get a kill.

Wow, thread moved after 6 months... thats interesting.
