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

is primal crushclaws better than syndicate operatives ? or should i use use SO?

Well, after the failed venture that is ground slam berserker (not because the build is bad, but there are too many buttons to constantly spam in right order), I am planning to begin new with another build.

Currently thinking of Kay's summoner build, but I wasn't wondering what your impressions are in this league. Is that a good build against ultimatum trials? Would I be able to do all endgame content with a summoner build? My biggest fear is thatthe spectres will be killed during the encounter after the heavy nerfs they got.

In short, am I safe with a Necromancer build or is there a better alternative for leaguestarting "again"?

I'm sailing right through. I don't like the "survive" ultimatums. The killing ones are awesome. I smash everything. I usually complete them in full. Now and then, I get blooped by something. Survivability doesn't seem to be quite the strong point just yet; though I'm still in the story mode. Perhaps that will change with gear a little later on.
And the white guys says, I'll have a Coke then.
can anyone look at my char and suggest immediate upgrades to focus on?

Your weapon is pretty bad. It has many bad modes.
To be frank, you should upgrade all your gear.

You need way more life. Some pieces don't even have any. Gotta pump those numbers up.

If we're using the SSF/Starter build but with SO what do we change? The starter build gems is focused on using FAS. Need to know what gems to remove, add or rearrange. Do we switch to the triad gloves? I know in the video it shows the gem, links and items but I can't afford the diadem now since im still in acts. Please tell me where exactly to put all of the gems and what gems to use for SO Starter build.



Someone please help me out with this. I could just chose to use FAS but I heard SO are better but I am not sure what to change to keep it the starter build except with SO. I know to change the 6 link gems but need help with the other stuff.

You have a couple of options here.

The first is to get a pair of Triad Grip gloves with 4 green sockets, thus converting your operatives over to cold damage. At that point you simply replace Spell Echo with Vicious Projectiles, and keep the rest of the build the same.

The second is to focus on Physical damage, which drops Elemental Equilibrium and needs the following gem setup:
Raise Spectre + Predator + Impale + Brutality + Vicious Projectiles + Minion Damage - this gives the highest dps "on paper", but fitting Volley in there somewhere might actually give more single-target DPS due to shotgunning.

I personally prefer the second setup, with Volley in the place of Predator, since it's fewer buttons to push. YMMV.

What gem setup do you put in the 4G Triad ?
Also is the specter guide SO's setup still up to date ? Specter / MinionDam / Vicious Proj / Elem with Atk / GMP / Predator

For the first option also, just remove the starter build gems (zombies+stone golem) in the glove and replace them with the 4 green gems that SO build uses?
