Summoner Divination Card. Community Input.

Hello,

I'd like to make a Divination card for summoner.
I didn't really want to announce what I was thinking of picking but I think it important for the summoner community to have a say more so.

Useful Links.
How Divination Card Submission Will Work.
List of Corruptions.

Current Ideas.
Unique Bones of Ullr - Could possibly help summoners early game. Its a pretty common unique but can never seem to find one when you want. Might make corruption spamming easier with a bigger supply. This card could be pretty common.
Unique Mon'tregul's Grasp - IL74 or 75 drop only. I'm hoping the Divination card will drop in lower zones making this item more accessible (Need confirmation).
Magic IL78 Summoner's (+2 Minion Gems) Hubris Circlet - High IL crafting base for Witch. Will need to wait for new 2.0 values and still kinda need confirmation on drop locations for Divination cards. Since Divination cards will take up less space and will be an auto pickup, this could help trade for everyone wanting this high IL base.

Any cool and interesting ideas for summoner are welcome.

Trash Bin.
Alpha's Howl Corrupted with Minion Damage. - Since you cant pick corrupted mods.
Midnight Bargain - Build disabling. Ill consider peoples feedback but I think I'm happier to pick Mon'tregul's over Midnight.

for me the alphas makes more sense

Ummmmm

Unique

Base Type (Unided) OR Category (for example, Rings, Flask or Intelligence Armours) OR Specific Unique (If you choose a Unique from a previous challenge league, it'll affect where we put the cards. If the Unique is normally always corrupted, it'll be corrupted here.)
Has Corrupted Implicit Mod (Optional. You can't pick which mod. Item will have quality=20 and will be corrupted, which means you must use Vorici if you want to change sockets)

Doesn't this say you can't choose what corrupted mod goes on the item?

I'm pretty much a dedicated summoner.

I have 2 simple ideas.
Mon'tregul's Grasp Corrupted with Melee Splash.
Alpha's Howl Corrupted with Minion Damage.

Any cool and interesting ideas for summoner are welcome.

I would like offer some input on the two items you have listed

alphas really is only used in srs builds so if you want your card to make the easier build easier, alphas is probably where you need to go with it. and some over geared 6l chest low life builds that use 6 link zombies

as for montre , keep in mind in the closed beta the new mob ai makes having less minions extremely dangerous for summoners. it is very much the difference between getting hit near fatally in every fight and going a map without incident.

also i am not entirely sure you want minions on your switchable items since it means pressing x accidentally will kill off whatever minion you slot in there and a 4l with out + levels is hardly what i would call damage competitive.


other things i usually mull over
1 corruptions on amulets might be a decent idea. mainly the curse on an ammy with dex and strength (the two in demand stats for a summoner) i suggest against trying for a siddbreath as its lack of stats cripple viable use of it. so that might be iffy for your requirements.

2 you might be able to do culling strike on midnight bargain. but that item is already overly situational with its crippling 30% reserved mechanic.


this is all assuming you can pick the corruption otherwise eh to all of it.

3a nifty idea is to do an always 6s drop of the queens decree

I think the 6-link option is only for white item bases.

I didn't want to be the bearer of bad news (I'm a summoner too).

6 S not L


either way it is unfortunate if they cant even git that considering how much crap 2 hand items need to go through just to get as many sockets as 2 1 handers

^ Updated OP.

What about clean Alpha's? Bigger supply = easier corruption spamming, and they're currently more expensive than Bones of ULLR.

Iv'e just added a Summoner's helm to the list, so I think that's a better choice in the long run out of the two. Also the boots are pretty much BIS for a classic summoner.
We also have to consider Mon'tregul's.
