Kay's Summoner Memorial Page | New Guide is linked inside!

guys, sry if same question been there but its impos to read a book 1800 pages)
I have a wand with 85% minion damage and 20 cast\att speed with trigger. Crafted +1 minion skills +1 all spells with 55 minion dmg 22 speed but w/o trigger and were too scared to annul 25int or 12% project speed on it to add trigger on cast, sold it 55ex eh why am I saying this, I have around 130ex and want a new wand, 1st of all Im bit scared to risk all ex to spend on crafting thats why I want to buy new wand but is +2 to minions with around 35-40 minion dmg with att\cast speed around 19-22 wand will boost me if I change my wand with 85% minion dmg? Is this change worth 130exalt? I know for sure +2 lvls to animate guardian will make him almost immortal but it is already now immortal with all that regen thus I added primordal bond. but what about specters damage will I loose damage or they will damage better even with +-45% loss minion dmg on wand but with +2 to gems? sry for my english hope u understand.
will this one https://prnt.sc/vi9bs4 be much better then https://prnt.sc/vi9c7j to spectres damage? syndicate operatives.
Dear Kay, or anyone else willing to take a look
Kay's total DPS is effectively 645k
My total DPS is 108k and its almost a match of Kay's double cluster pure spectre.

Question is why such the insane delta between hers and mine (other than she's a bad ass). Do i need to tweek PoB or is it awakened gems are pushing that much more dps?

I'm downing A8 easy enough but it doesn't feel as op as 645k would feel.

Any suggestions or feedback from the coms would be awesome.

Thanks and happy hunting fam

First wand is way better although the cast speed does nothing for minions.
Second wand which has 107% increased crit for spells also does nothing for minions.
It must say "to minions" for ir to work.

So unless it says "to minions", speed and crit hit are useless so don't waste your money. No wand is worth 130ex IMO.

Your weapon is weak.
Your cluster jewels are not good.
You have added # to # type damage on items that negates EE.
You have no curse.
Want more?

To add to this, my weapon gives you EE, and is hard to beat with even a +1/+1 wand. Youd have to hit a good minion dmg or minion attack/cast speed to beat it.



This weapon was quite easy to craft as well using a redeemed exalted orb for the hatred effect after altering until I hit the +1 to all spells, filled the prefixes and craft cannot roll faster mods.

This combined with 4 vengeful commanders puts my hatred at 114% increased effect.

Would be good to have a far tangier, low-life / energy shield version of this with high regeneration. Has anyone tried this or is it not possible?

I'm sure it's possible, but far costlier than a life version. High ES pieces with resists and whatever dex you need won't come cheap.

Theoretically, it's probably higher DPS as well but even at my level more damage seems rather moot. A8 Sirius gets phased every phase for me except the last one, in which he usually gets off 1 illusion before he's dead depending on SO positioning.

I'm looking into using a "curse frostbite on hit" ring instead of profane proxy, but that means moving Skitterbots out of Diadem, and then I don't have enough mana to cast it, missing the 20% reducement from diadem. I can see some ppl using precision on top, for instance BobbingforApples and you are not even picking Sovereignty OR using Diadem - what am I missing? Could it be you are not using the Haste Aura, but only use the Vaal part of Vaal Haste? That would free up the mana, but I don't really believe that, seeing how handy the Haste aura is


I am indeed only using the Vaal portion of haste. I did have Sovereignty when I was running precision but I have since dropped precision since it didnt seem to add all that much dps, even when scaled with crit clusters.


Interesting! Thanks for that, I guess I'll have to test it out then :) Would you mind looking at my gear/build and see where I could invest for more survivability? I think maybe Anatomical Knowledge with corrupted blood next, when i get 2 more lvls, i can take the same note you are using it in.


The Anatomical Knowledge is for sure an option.

This is also why I prefer to not use Profane Proxy or Devouring Diadem.

Ele weakness corrupt 4G Triad Grips are ~4ex atm. That opens up a ring slot for life/dex/resists and allows you to link Skitterbots with Bonechill.

Same with devouring diadem; not using it opens a slot for huge life and resists rolls. You can even go further with crafted bone helmets or other elder helmets with +2-3 to socketed minion gems along with "supported by level xx minion life/damage".


Outside of these changes. your life rolls, etc. look good and where I'd expect them to be.

Yeah, was thinking more for the tankiness as opposed to any increase in damage. I found the dual cluster setup super-squishy.
Would like to post my current State on Gear for Syndicate Operatives Version!-)

While it really was clunky in the Start, i puzzeled simply all Layers of Defense Together i can grab and now it feels great. Added WatchersEye with 3 huge DefenseMods, got an Jewel with Blind for Minions, got an Jewel with Hinder for Minions, use 2 Surging Vitality from small Cluster and 1 Enduring Composure.
Took Mystic Bulwark from Tree and Sanctuary. At 5,9k Life at the Moment and doing Contracts, Grand Heists lvl 83 at 95% of my Time. Even after Lockdown i can stay for 2-3 Sec and pm back whoever has the Fortune to pm during Heisting.
Normally i go lvl 96 each League but here i am at lvl 97 and 90% XP.

Gear

Spoiler

Wand was upgraded several Times until current State. I prefer selfcast Desecrate+ Flesh Offering cause of Years playing Summoner, mostly SrS, and navigate my Minions that Way. I tested TriggerWand but with i have random DC´s out of nowthere. Helmet is buyed lately after i got my Hands on Alternate AG and full Kingmaker- Ephemeral Garb Setup. The PhysMod on Helmet is an random Mod and not "used". Amulet is selfmade with huge Portion of Luck at 4th Attempt (even in HarvestLeague i had not such a good One). The HatredMod from dual Influence on Amu allows to run Haste fully with and not only Vaal Haste. I use many redu Mana corrupts on Jewels and whatnot, its to fit in Aspect of Avian and Precision, both is not needed and an Luxury!
Belt, i tested an
Spoiler
and was surprised after i first tested Torments Reclamaition and never looked back. Shield is an happy Snipe from Trade. Simply looked at right Time for right Mods and was surprised these RedeemerMod exists on Shields. Sorry, my English is really bad
Trading DpS with Monsters for Loot will ever best Ratio!-)
Sitting in Town, flipping Items until all Gear is biS,
and get fastly bored from running Maps instead of grinding Upgrades is no Resolution!
