Hatred worth it for summoner? Zombies seem to chill...
|
But they don't really freeze anything so not dealing crits I guess.
Zombs have min damage, melee phys, min life. This is level 17 hatred so not under level. Previously was running Haste but it seems a bit lacking for a whole 60% especially at high level. Using Flame Sentinels mainly but hadn't played this alt in a while so rethinking it. So purity, red mana, haste/hatred, discipline...I don't need the purity for me but for minions I guess it works. Or maybe grace in the green spot? Ideas? My Skull hat:

" Hatred and Haste are the best damage boosting auras for minions. I don't know what you mean by "red mana", but I do know that Discipline shouldn't be run on a summoner unless you are a low life summoner. I generally use POE, Hatred, Haste, Vitality, and Clarity. If I was low life I'd add on Grace, Wrath, and then Anger in that order. Also I'd drop Wrath and Anger and use a Midnight Bargain with either Prism Guardian or Matua Tupuna. I prefer the Matua since it increases the effect of auras on both yourself and your minions, while Prism Guardian could allow you to use more auras on life. |

There is probably no better damage aura for your zombies than hatred, they attack real slow and deal a lot of damage per hit which makes them unsuitable for anger and wrath.
I'd go purity/haste/hatred, probably. With regen nodes and skullhead I'd say vitality isn't necessary. Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs. ◄[www.moddb.com/mods/balancedux]► ◄[www.moddb.com/mods/one-vision1]► Last edited by raics#7540 on Jun 26, 2014, 7:09:59 AM

Yep, reduced mana, I guess I was tired when I wrote this out.
Ok so you guys really think the 12% attack speed with a little movement is good? I don't think I can run both haste and hatred so I will stick with hatred. Have to run Discipline, I would only have 2400 life otherwise with it I get the extra 2500 ES. Even this life is not great, I got stun locked by Museum miscreant jerk hole. I can't really trade for any gear as nearly out of orbs and well, I think I'll stop at level 80 soon. I post my gear though if anyone suggest better links or something. I feel I need cast on stun but already have to move stuff around to use desecrate. Need more sockets! And yes my IR is not good, I only wish I could get better without tank resist.

12% IAS? Where did you put your skill points? :P
A few more levels gets you 14-16%, depending on how much Dex you have. 70% Increased Effect of Auras pushes that to 23-27%. It also makes you Cast and move notably faster, which is quite convenient when it comes to not being pancaked. ---------- I personally don't see why anyone would use the Skullhead. It's pretty much +2 Gem levels vs. 10% Block. The armour is almost entirely pointless, and 2% regen is... Not terribly strong compared to what they're Leeching. |

" Fail. Ever heard of Multistrike? If you run zombies without Multistrike, you are doing it wrong. Anger > Hatred > Wrath when it comes to DPS Auras. Melee physical damage is like one of the worst gems you could run with them. Multistrike > Added fire > addead chaos > melee Splash > melee physical Im running Clarity, Anger, Hatred, and roflstomp level 73 maps with only level 17 zombies. Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me. Last edited by KalHirol#0543 on Jun 26, 2014, 9:08:56 AM

" Multistrike changes nothing, when it comes to adding flat damage only base attack speed matters. It gives you ~30% more raw dps which is pretty decent but its main use is distributing damage around as minions tend to gang up on one enemy now so a lot of hits go to waste.

im also running a summoner for the first time atm. but im finding it hard to use items such as matuna tupua and uller boots since they lack life/resist and base armour/es.
currently using 0 "summmoner items", the skull head is good but i think a +2 minion gem helm would be better? im also using cloak of defiance with 3k + mana and dicipline, am i completly dumb or?.. im rlly tanky tho :) |
