I went CI with Apep's supremacy with wicked ward for energy shield recharge.

Any feedback regarding this path?

I was working on one of these earlier so I'll give my tips and a pastebin of my initial impression of changes

You've taken several 5% ES nodes when there is still 6% ES nodes available. Influence is often better then 5% ES nodes just from boosting discipline.

As a CI character and no sources of evasion or dodge wouldn't trust just the unique flask as your stun protection, I would recommend Eye of Chayula to be much safer against that. Unfortunately none of the stun immunity items are that appealing

This does result in stat requirements but most of the Dex/Str gems actually do the same thing at lvl 1 then level 20 so you can just not level them up and it'll be fine. The only things that you would need more stats to use is steelskin and desecrate. The level 20 desecrate only need to be swapped in to summon spectres once and then you can swap it out again so you can don't need that dex permanently.

You've cut two big damage sources of the build, wrath and victario's charity. I would drop zealotry before wrath, you can also squeeze in all 3 auras if you invest into enough nodes but if you don't want to go that route you'd want to find some other big sources of damage. Whispers of doom is a good one for second damaging curse but you'll still be doing less damage then the other summoners builds

I would recommend dropping sacrifice to pick up more jewels. Jewels can roll minions resistances & leech & damage and you need all 3.

As a alternative on the passive tree. Over near righteous army you can get 14% mana reserve and life and chaos resist

Thanks. Regarding the stone golem - is there, a cold damage equivalent of combustion for when using nb cold melee damage crazed drivers?

Use Bonechill for that.

I personally dropped Phase Acro (gonna run Vaal Molten Shell) and that gave me some points, with which I took Sovereignty, dropped Dread Banner and took Flesh and Stone

You think this spectre are the best in dps?

Yesterday i switched my Helmet Gems to the new AG+ Golem+ Dread Banner + Minion Damage setup. Now i wonder, if the spectres even trigger impale stacks for dread banner, because i don´t see them in the buff bar. Or is armageddon brand used for impaling enemies?

Would be nice if someone could clarify this, because at the moment i can´t profit from Dread Banner as it seems.

Using Flesh and Stone atm, with x2 auras too, how?

1- Take 6 nodes from tree for a total of 16% reduced mana reserved
2- Take a + jewel with "1% reduced mana reserved"
3- Put an enlighten lv3 with Zealotry, wrath and generosity

About 22 mana left^^

But you will be missing out on +20 to all resists...

Dread Banner is used for two things: it counts as an aura, so our Commander of Darkness ascendancy proc, and it's for the 'nearby enemies have 21% less accuracy' as a defensive layer against Legion physical hits.

Slave Driver is a very good all round spectre. It has high damage and move speed. If you want the absolute best in damage, use Enhanced Vaal.

Enhanced Vaal vs Uber Elder: https://youtu.be/N79kzkwOvuQ
Enhanced Vaal vs Shaper: https://youtu.be/5WsXWe-yljg

They do single hit damage of 1.5mil shaper, but move so slowly, you cannot map with them.
