[3.21] Cold Conversion Summoner | Build guides for all budgets | (Ghazzy Zoomancer)

"
Hey there, thanks for the amazing guide. It has carried me further than any other builds so far. Just one question though: My minions including AG are dying very fast in the redeemer fight when the circle becomes smaller and my minions instantly die due to the heavy dot in the storm. Is there any way to counter this, besides constantly using convocation to resummons them back to the eye of the storm? Thanks


Honestly, Redeemer was a BITCH for me this league too. All my minions died and I had to manually resummon Carrion Golems until she died early on.

The problem is when she does her spin attack and shoots 50 whirlwind missles from the middle of her. These things shotgun and if your minions stand underneath here they will tank all of them at the same time. This is what will oneshot your minions. This is the ability:

To counter it you have to convocate your minions as far away from her as possible when she charges that thing to avoid them from getting oneshot.
I had issue this league though because my golems are aggresive and just ran into her and died.

The problem during the fight is that we don't have any leech so minions won't heal. When the Spectres die they can't spawn Phantasms and heal the Carrion Golems. This leads to the fight becoming extremely misreble.

Some things you can try to do to make the fight easier is specc 8% max ele res on a defensive mastery aswell as getting 1% leech.

Sorry to bother you with such a silly question but I really don't know which upgrade to go for first.
If go first charity w / Determ and then aul's
Or a better wand or a better helmet

My current wand

My current helmet


Get Helm first. Your wand is pretty good, upgrading it is low priority for you :)
If I don't have a Garb of the Ephemeral with % life regen what chest piece can I use instead for AG?

I wouldn't use Garb any longer.
I'd either use a Doppleganger if I wanted my AG to be tanky or an Inpulsa if I wanted explode together with Gravebind Gloves.

POB is showing I'm doing 2.3 million DPS, which seems way off. I can't seem to figure out what is missing/off with the configurations. One thing I noticed is enabling and disabling Predator doesn't seem to change the numbers for some reason. I don't have EE activated yet because I don't have the correct craft on my rings, but that is what I'm going for next. Why does the DPS seem so far off with my POB?


Alot of PoB "magic" missing in your profile.
PoB doesn't account for Animate Guardian, Primal Crushclaw abilities or your Brittle shield so you gotta put them in manually.

I made some optimization changes to your PoB and put in some of the stuff on some of your items:

https://pastebin.com/bYgAkk8p

Changes I made:

1. Put in 5% base crit on your shield for your minions to simulate brittle.
2. Put in Animate Guardian single target gear setup on your life flask.
3. Put in 50% increased cold dmg to simulate Primal Crushclaw Screech.
4. Checked for Fire & Lightning dmg assuming you will fix that on your ring.

Other small and important optimizations:
- Changed minion life nodes for 32% increased minion dmg at Death Attunement.
- Fixed your gems: Leveled up all your gems to 20, leveled Carrion Golem to 21.
- Put in the correct alternate quality gems for Skitterbots and Bonechill.
- Leveled Awakened Melee Phys to lvl 5 to get Intimidate.
- Swapped Melee Splash for Melee Phys on Crabs.
- Swapped Bone Offering to Divergent Flesh Offering
- Leveled up 3 levels so you get Decay Ward. You will need minion block to consistently procc Brittle.
- Removed the 2 points you use for 20 dex. Get 10 dex on a new Abyss Jewel in your belt instead. Also removed 40% convocation node. Put those points into Lord of the Dead.

If you want even more damage you can run Vaal Haste instead of Grace.
I'm running it right now and it feels great. You will be squishier though :D

This is the new base for your build. If you want more defenses and want to sacrifice some damage, play around with this template of your build.
For example, you can run Bone Offering instead of Flesh Offering and sacrifice some points in minion dmg et.c.


Thanks for all the help, really appreciate it! It is a fun build and I'm hoping to better optimize my single target DPS to somehow reach 20 million eventually as a goal. Hopefully I can still be somehow tanky in the process.
Edit: Nevermind I finally corrupted myself a determination shield!

Hello, this is the first time I'm playing minions and I'm sort of lost what to upgrade/what to fix. I'm having a hard time farming red maps. Here's my pob (I'm still leveling my gems, recently qualitied them): https://pastebinp.com/D79Ml3Svss4MiCJCr0azQ#HqcGwjQbAJoArc29nfl2--rCnL6LV21zyzye0eo_LJ4=

Where should I go from here? Should I make the switch to Primal Crushclaws? (Still using SOs) Should I get a wand or a helmet? Any input is deeply appreciated.
One last thing pls, I don't understand how you apply EE tho? I see on your profile that you only have frostbite as a spell


Hopefully I'm up to date on AG gear and this should be sufficient enough for his survival against Sirus/endgame dangerous bosses?

*edit* I also have Indomitable Army

Hmm with the new POB what points do you recommend to takeaway for the typical lvl 93-95 that most people reach?
