Kay's Summoner Memorial Page | New Guide is linked inside!

Hello. Iv never done a summoner build and would like to try one as my last build of the league. I want to try The pure spectre one as it looks like The best one (?).

Iv read all kinds of comments in this forum guide. Some people struggle in red maps and some melt bosses.

My question is, how much currency does one need to zink into the build for it to feel good and do end game realtivly easy?

Question, if I happen to have a 7-link helm for pure spectres, what's the pathing look like if I still want to spec into eldritch battery in the tree.

I assume I have to move the cluster jewels also to the upper right portion nearer the witch tree.

Hi guys,
Please, do you have any tips? What i need to upgrade or how to rebuild this budget stacker SO spectre build? SO have good dmg but i die alot. About 2+deaths in map (red juicy)

What is your aim to? your build is a half aurabot half aura stacker plus a shield for pure spectre damage .
And u dont run discipline which give very big number of ES. with 250 aura it can give alot of ES.

So in short:
-Run discipline!!!
-Change/switch shield in case mapping /bossing . I sugget get Whakatutuki o Matua for mapping.
- buy better helm.

I have discipline. Just vaal discipline And pob didnt show discipline on.

I tried balanced build for survive And dmg. Dmg Is ok but i die a lot i think.

At what level is it recommended to switch to pure spectre? Can I do it whenever after reaching maps or do I need enough skill points?

Hello,
I have a few questions about this thread's summoner builds, and keep in mind that I never played a summoner, and I am also rather new to PoE - this is my second season.

1). From the OP, I would chose Pure Specters. Why does it say 'good survability'? How is it better than any other summoner? Am I wrong in thinking that at high levels (red++ maps), if a boss / hard enemy focuses me and not my minions, I'm toast. 5-6k of Life won't help me much, and the flask/buffs won't have a 100% uptime. How is the survability of Summoners in general and of Specter-focused one in particular, in the above situation?

2). Specters: if 1-2 die, our of 5(I doubt I have the budget for this but let's say I do), then I have to run to the Hideout and re-summon them, correct?

3). If Specter-focused summoner is not the 'best' at keeping one alive in high level content, what better options are there (skeleton/skele mages/ zombies / etc)?

Thanks.

Am I supposed to use summon skeletons or vaal summon skeletons and how big is the difference? For 4.2m skelemancer build.
thanks!

Well, today i made 6 link armour with +1 max spectre and I went to Menagerie and made it 30% quality, it corrupted my armour... I have 3 blue links and 3 green links in it and actually i don't know what to do. Is there any gem that can replace "Elemental Damage with Attacks Support" or should I try to sell it? I don't have currency to get another one at this moment. I'll be grateful for any tips.

Just a quick one guys.
On abyss jewels on pure spectres build should we avoid "monsers deal x fire/lightning/cold dmg" does it ruin EE?
