Cold ANIMATE WEAPON Summoner | League-Start & Leveling Guide

Yes I'm going to add more emphasis on the custom loot filter. Appreciate the feedback.

Also, will say Indomitable Army is a game-changer for red map clearing deliriums.

I cut a few life nodes to add it and the difference is amazing in how weapons survive. I want to find a few damage nodes to cut instead but I'm not sure where on the tree to find those. Cutting Spiritual Aid seems like the way to go, I'm not sure if the accuracy would be missed or not.

I have to say, my complaints about AW being clunky and slow have completely disappeared since I followed the tips posted a few pages ago.

i.e. summoning a few AWs (5-10) at the beginning of the map with Bladefall, then summoning the rest from the 2-3 first packs of mobs (thanks to the AW custom filter). Also I resummon preventively a few AWs after each pack of mobs, so the AWs never expired in the middle of a fight.

To be honest, I thought the custom filter was optional, like a quality of life. And I used Bladefall to summon all the AWs. And waited for them to expire to resummon everything with Bladefall again. The custom filter is actually MANDATORY to enjoy playing AW, and Bladefall is just there to start a map or start a boss. This was very not clear to me.

I remember there was a lot of these complaints a few pages ago. I feel like AW is not as popular as it should be only because most people play it wrongly like I was and get frustrated. Maybe it's a good thing for us tho, gear is pretty cheap. :D


This is an absolutely incredible post. I posted a few above this complaining about the clunky and slow playstyle and man does this loot filter up the quality of life by a huge margin. I too thought it was more of a suggestion than a necessity but now that I'm using it, it's a necessity!
Checked the first page, but didn't see it. Spectres? I'm still doing the story mode and have an open slot in my chest for spectres. What are some people using?
And the white guys says, I'll have a Coke then.

For spectres we summon the Host/Carnage Chieftains from Act 7 to apply Power/Frenzy charges to our minions.

Gotcha. Looked for it, but didn't see it. Thanks.

Will an ashcaller work with EE early?

Early on you don't need EE. It really only matters for bosses later. But yes, Ashcaller would technically work.

for people who are looking for more defense, replace the Power charge chieftain with Diabolist who Enfeeble curses every one. The Power Charge only adds a small DPS so this is not much of a offensive loss for a big defensive boost.
Can you chance/ancient mesh gloves to get Triad Grip? I am playing SSF and haven't had any luck with chancing all the pairs I have found. Someone in global chat said they are league specific and will only drop/can only be chanced, in Blight maps.Poe db doesn't have them as 'league specific' though. So can they only be rolled in Blight Zana mod maps? If so, damn! Need a ton more atlas bonus objectives before I can roll that mod.

They are not tied to any league afaik. You can drop and chance them wherever you are. They also aren't that rare, so in theory should be easy to chance.
