Thanks for the support. I hope the levelling walkthrough is clear enough. I ran into the character count limit, so it's quite brief in its description.

Zealotry looks really nice, so I'm looking to replace Aspect of the Avian. 15% more damage + 39% increased crit + 6% heal vs 10% ms and 10% chance to 2x damage.

The main problem is then running 2x 50% reservation auras. So, we'll need either the passive to reduce reservation or a lucky corruption on a jewel. Also use the -mana craft on rings to reduce skills costs to 0-5mana.

Hey kayella,
Thank you for your guide, I will definitely play your build as a league starter. To improve the survivability I have this thought:

I will use a cwdt+desecrate setup, bots level 1. Another desecrate setup with cwdt and bone offering, both level 20. I would take Mistress of Sacrifice instead of Puppet Master, so I will heal full wenn I am getting a huge amount of damage.
What are your thoughts?

Greetings

Thanks for the support!

Bone Offering + Mistress might not work as well as you hope. Mistress only give 50% of the offering buff's effect to you. So you only get 17% block and 297hp heal.

The double cwdt worked in the old summoner builds before block and mistress were nerfed (it was possible to get 75% block).

If you want more survivability, has a look in the alternate build section. In there, I have some information about my phase acro version that I used in 650+ delve. It also has info on how to get 40 seconds of fortify for you and your minions.

Do you swap that uniq jewell for fortify aswell, or you just keep it?

I just leave it in there, so I can easly proc fortify again when it's down.

Paste Bin lnk does not work ;/

How does spectres attitude compared to zombies?
Played zombiemancer last league and this was terrible experience - they could ignore monsters that is near me and hitting me. Not even talking about ranged monsters. The thing that I must cast something to point them where to go and what to hit was terrible, really. With them I felt myself as a selfcaster with pretty delayed damage ><

Please?

In my experience playing other spectre builds and zombies builds is to me, spectres are more agro as compared to zombies. I did not like relying on zombies to make up their mind on when they were going to attack. I've never had the problem with spectres like you had with zombies. I hope this helps!

Sorry I missed your post!

Zombies are very passive and like to stand near you. When you attack something, they will also attack, but if you move, then will stop attacking and move with you.

Spectres are better, they are more aggressive when they attack and you can move around a bit and they will keep attacking. If you move too far, they will stop, and follow you.

I think you will enjoy spectres a lot more than zombies.

Quick question from a newbie summoner player.
Did Convocation ever work with Skeletons?
Because it doesn't now, and - as i've no experience playing summoners - i can't figure out if it's intended or not.
