Hi i want to change my character into a pure boss killer, Sirus 8 mainly. Wich specter is the bestscaling for singel target with low budget? goal is to make a as good boss killer as cheap as i can, so i can invest into another build for maps

I saw some gameplay of syndicate operatives and they looked cool. I’ve never played a minion build before so I have question... is it better to start with the base build if I only have a 4 ex budget? And if I go with the base build wild syndicate operatives work well with it? I’m not sure if I can afford the cluster jewels

Base build and SO work decent together. Your goal with 4 ex would be to get to 5 specters. Do do so craft a +2/3 minion bone helmet, and try to get hypothermia in it to help boost SO damage. The recipe is on page one, just use a shaper based helm as base.

Then craft a +1 minion or all spell gems wand.

Now you can pick up a +1 to maximum specters chest, and not care if it's 6 link. a 5 link should be cheap, and this is where you'll put the AG/Carrion Golem with support gems like feeding frenzy, and elemental army.

If you get this far, and still have chaos to burn try and craft a +1 to all int gems amulet off a hunter based amulet (Alt orb spam) . And if you get that, toss Death Attunement anoint on it, and presto 5 specters if you got bones of uller boots (super cheap to buy).

Now this setup should get you well into Red maps, and probably safely farm up to A5 Sirus, and start making chaos off drops/crafting to upgrade as you go or work towards a 6 link +1 specters chest.

Hello mates. Can anyone can give me some advices for my hero ?

Do you guys self craft those clusters or straight up buy from market?

Hi Kay, thanks for all the awesome guide material. I had some questions!

1. Is it possible to get onslaught for summoners in any way besides using a silver flask?

2. Why do you say Carrion Golem adds so much damage to the spectres (syndicate ops)? I thought minion base damage is very high because of level scaling.

3. Are there any tricks to generating frenzy charges with Victario's Charity? I use it all the time and sometimes I feel like my minions are not getting charges. Is it just short range? I know the chance is very low at 5% on hit, but I am using storm brand and usually the boss is dead before I get charges!

ty again from first time summoner

1. Its "hard" as a Summoner because we dont kill things only our minions.
there is a Belt which gives you onslaught while you habe fortify so in combination with our ANimate Guardian this works.
But i never really needed the extra movement speed for my summoner, the atk speed and cast speed have no use for us so far.

2. The Carrion Golem gives nearby non-Golem Minions additional Physical Damage and thats what we want for our SOs :)


3. You could Take Necromantic Aegis on the Tree so your minions generate the Frenzy Charges, but you will loose all the benefits from the shield.
You also can use something like Holy Flame Totem with Multiple Totems or fast hit count spells like Ball Lightning. And the Raidus for Victarios Charity is 40 Units so quite small , for example the Victarios Flight boots (on you AG) has a 50 Units radius, so if you using Totem try to stay in 0 Units Radius

Thanks for the update to Spectre and Spiders build Kay. Been playing that one since league start with crabbies. Have switched over to the new build and it runs quite nicely.

Have switched over to using Snow Rhex's for now to see how they go, but i'm not sure if I can say goodbye to my loyal crabs.

If anyone needs the Snow Rhex's or any other spectre you can hit me up in game @BonnieAndSpyders

I've got most of the popular ones.

Hi guys, can someone check out my profile. I am only able to hit about 50k dps and 60k if I go six link in body armor with a wand upgrade with minion damage. Not sure what to upgrade from here as I am starting to experience issue with map boss as they take longer and longer to kill. Sometimes even on rare I have to drop Armageddon brand with frostbite to kill them.

hi, just looked at your char in PoB:

I changed the following :

6 Link Body armor :

Spectre, Spell Echo, EdwA, Vicious Proj, Volley, Predator

-Link Skitterbots with Bonechill

-Use Elemental Army instead of Predator for your AG and Golem

- Without Frenzy/Power Charges the Pob shows me 212k DPS for the Dagger.

- Without the 6 Link and volley instead of GMP in you helmet im at ~ 170k dps.

so try to get the skitterbots with bonechill and the elemental army with feeding frenzy on you AG and Golem

For More damage you could Take Nectotic Aegis on Tree + Victarios Charity Shield or a +2 min Frenzy Charge shield for dps boost.

Hello and ty for the detailed guide. hanging on base build and 5ex so asking myself which spectres and build aiming for. i watched the new spectre and spiders video from Kay. now i am asking myself if it might be a good choice for now casue wands for pure spectres are pretty expensive and not even good. for my 5ex i get a +1 maybe +2 starter wand without any sweet stats on it. so my question is if its more smart investing into the spiders build with cheap weaponslots. i did some pobbing but sadly there isnt the recommended snow rhex spectre in the list so i have no numbers...maybe i am just too stupid but maybe some1 got an idea until when the spiders build feels smooth to play in any aspect. to be honest i hate investing into a starter wand for 5 ex with pure spectres. when i wanna upgrade i sit on this wand which no1 is buying so it feels like a stupid investment. with spiders on the other hand buying clusters between 50-80 chaos step by step feels better. thats not that much and beside that i like the mechanic around it and the gameplay looks smooth.

after my long struggling lifetime story here is my question^^
what the fuck shall i do with my 5ex xD focusing on RS, SO or Spectres and Spiders build?

My SO spectres almost died because of corrputed blood during Sirius 5 fight.

But, my life pool is telling me something, ig.

Hi!
Anyone know how make SO more aggressive? I mean on maps they attack enemies only near me, but for example in carrion golems build, golems attack all enemies on screen even off-screen.
