GhazzyTV - THE Spectre Summoner [LOW & HIGH BUDGET VERSIONS]

Messing around in the new Temple, I happened to Spectre the fire version of Risen Vaal Advocates. They would likely be the best substitution until you get to Solar Guards, if you want to run Spectres as early as possible to drop SRS. I've yet to compare them to Solar Guards as this is my first league running this type of build and haven't gotten above 50 yet, so not sure how the AI compares yet.

How does summoners work in current meta? Im kinda worried that spectre summoner is too squishy for high level incursions/temppels?

I did all content in the game last league, aside from Uber Elder, with solar guards. It shouldn't be an issue.

If you're careful and make sure to account for your Immortal Call timeout, you should be fine. I haven't RIPed in a temple or incursion since getting IC (and paying more attention to ranged mobs)

Similar here, also i was going for a more QoL variation, with poets pen kb intead of charge and ahn onslaught+armour instead of victarios aegis.

Had around 114k spectre dps with gmp.

I'll be starting this build with arc and lightning spire trap until I can get solar guards.

Does anyone have some advice to give regarding how to farm for Bones of Ullr and Vis Mortis in SSF? I believe the incursion may have some potential there, but I have yet to do the content in maps.

Also does anyone have a good way of using combustion gem to augment solar guard single target?

Hey,

I wouldn't personally use Combustion, there are better options as displayed in the guide.

Regarding Bones of Ullr & Vis Mortis in SSF you'd have to chance them, there are no real way of farming those uniques I'm afraid!

I generally prefer Brightbeak but GOD DAMN MAN the Incursion items are obnoxiously insane!

Would you prefer this weapon or a brightbeak?

Also I'm at the point where I can easily afford the scourge, is it worth the investment?

I think it's a great choice, it's a bit slower than Brightbeak but gives a TON of damage :)

Any thoughts on forgetting about victarios charity and Necromantic Aegis and just going for incursion 90%+ minion dmg item dual wield?

Well, it means you'd have to Whirling Blades over Shield Charge which I generally don't like. Another option is to use a rare shield and put the spare nodes to jewels/life instead which makes you tankier. It's all coming down to a matter of personal taste though!

Without poedb providing information I can't really tell how efficient they are compared to one another =/

^^^This^^^

It's all about having Soul Weaver ascendancy & making sure they are at the highest lvl you can bring them to :)

Anyone tried the Blade Vortex spectres?
Might be good with the new BV no ?
I thought they would rip bossses off

Cheers

Is Bisco's leash still worth it for mapping?

Afaik they haven't changed those minions yet and if I don't recall wrong they had very bad life & dmg modifiers.

Rampage gives movement speed to you and then dmg AND movement speed to your minions. This is outside the effects it causes as well which are great for increasing clear speed significantly.

Yeah, I just thought it had been nerfed, I guess not. Equipped it last night & was instantly reminded why I enjoyed it last league. Explosions everywhere & the clear speed is amazing.
