3.14 KING OF ALL SUMMONERS. Zombies & Skeletons & Spectres on STEROIDS! | League-Start to End-Game

I just wanted to ask, as a SSF player, how hard it is to get this build running without issues (more or less)? Will it require lots of grinding or any super specific gear which is hard to get?

Im wondering if it would be that crazy to just try running with no ES like normal melee builds just stacking life and armor, grabbing a Craiceann's Carapace chest, the Baron, and just high armor/life/resist gloves using a skill tree like;

We survive with 6k life and some leech on physical impale cyclone builds, would it be that far fetched to survive with 7k or so life and an army of minions with significantly higher physical reduction?

Yes that's an option I'm thinking too... life/armour based.

Life is fine. Go with a 2h or a bow setup and you can get over 10k hp with a kaoms. Otherwise 8.5k is easy with a different chest

Im honestly going to start with the tree I linked, I will put an efficient training in the 2 sockets at top of tree, I will easily be over 1k strength.

Ill get my leech from Baron/Zombies, have good base life regen, and im going to run; Pride, Flesh and Stone using Sand Stance, Aspect of the Crab, and Dread Banner. Going to use that sexy Crab Chest for my aspect and immunity to bleed, and just going to rock big life and armor.

Worst case scenario I can drop my cyclone to a 4 link and run Kaoms chest like Crazy mentioned.

I'm going to try changing all the skills of the boots and adding skeletons

So how convinced are we that summoners are going to be fine/great for 3.10?

I remember that people were using a specific version of POB. What was it?

Im convinced to the point that im league starting with it today.

You have to keep in mind they didnt so much nerf "summoners", they were targeting strength stacking, energy shield, and mana b/c the largest abusers of the zombie/ES build were actually templars/mana guardians.

Im just going a different direction this time around, I will maintain the core of the splash I like to play. The Stampede Assassin Boots and custom holy relic link will all remain in place, I will simply be stacking life and armor, and using a different chest and gloves, and switching my auras a bit.

Our dps is going to be fine, I used to post videos of A8 conqueror kills in 3-4 seconds at strengths as low as 1,300 for examples. We just have to get creative on defenses, since they are going hard in the paint on ES im just going the other way.
