[2.0]Rathik's NEWBIE FRIENDLY FUN&CHEAP FARMER, DPS Summoner. High AOE DMG, SURVIVAL."The Matriarch"

Currently running this build Level 70 Ambush league. I enjoy this build so far but I probably shouldn't have leveled Arc as stated in the guide, since ele reflect has killed me a few times. I am contemplating the transition from Life --> CI but I need to get some important pieces of armor.

At the moment I am running Temporal Chains/Vulnerability and Purity/Clarity as auras but I would like to add in Discipline and Hatred as well.

Hi guys,

I have started this build following this guide and first of all I'd like to thank Rathik and all the others that contributed to this great thread.

I'm currently level 62, in Act 1 mercy and leveling as life based, planing to transit to CI when I feel I'm ready. It's been going great so far.

Regarding the skill tree, I'm at the point to start the "95 points" part and here I would like some advice. Considering I have respected the "74 points" part allocation from the guide, what would be the best start for the "95" part? Should I start with Death Attunement to firstly boost my minions further, or should I start with the double curses part? Or start with some reduced reserved mana?

What do you think?

Thank you

All paths are good. With aura nodes you will add another aura, with curse you will get another curse and death attunement will give an extra specter.

You will eventually get them all so don't worry about it.

Anyone figured out a good way to kill map 74 dominus?
If your zombies doesn't have the hp to outright tank him >level 20 zombie gem. Just keep resummoning and try try again while avoiding the range of his touch of god and his spider beam with your character. Should be rather easy to dodge his spells as long as you are moving around.

Just like any other boss in the game for summoner time and time again the best strat is to gun them down asap.

Flesh Offering, Vaal Haste.

If your minions are being focused fired by his spider beam, use convocation to dodge.

The most deadly thing in the entire fight is actually not dominus but when he commands his minions to explode. I remember instantly dying to that once in a -max res map haha.

In addition to Mattc :) hints you can swap/charge multiple vaal gems before reaching the boss (wear only one at a time).
Usually i do it with a white slot swaping reduce mana for a single vaal gem and equip all before facing a hard boss.
My usual setup involve charging 2 vaal discipline and a vaal haste.

Against Dominus a vaal summon skeleton could be handy to create a "living wall" between you and his minions.
His minion explosion are very dangerous.

I got to lv50 easily but I'm getting one shotted at the first maps of merciless acts :( the reason why is that I was beeing greedy fuck and that I wasn't following your recommended build for power lvl.. (wanted to use as less regrets as possible..)

so I need help now how to fix my stupidity ;_;

Yea, you either start over or waste regrets to get on the right path. You lack life.

You can also waste your time and farm lower areas and try to salvage the build.

I would of start over though.

Went life based and doing some unorthodox things (using my old marauder gear). I'm well aware that it isn't ideal but I don't have a good 5 or 6 linked chest so I'll use the legacy BoR until I do. I went iron reflexes and I'm running Purity, Hatred, Grace.

Currently farming Merciless Dominus and just traded for a ghetto Montregul's Grasp (85% dmg). I use Evangelists for Spectres with Inc AoE, Minion Damage, and Faster Casting. Zombies in the BoR with splash, 19/20 multistrike, and item quantity.


Right now, 2.5k life, 77 res all, 8k armor, 48% block.




Have a couple midnight's that haven't been selling, figured I might as well try Atziri soon.

Any advice on Atziri as a summoner?



On a side note, I leveled summoner and it was easy. Though I did have bones of ullr, matua tepena, and a multistrike gem for zombies to make it muh easier past level 20. The facebreaker gear isn't mandatory for leveling, and this is coming from someone who has a pair of 984% facebreakers.
