So thinking about it, a Shaper Mace is probably still BiS.

Roll:
+1 to socketed gems
+ your choice of other cool shaper mod

Craft:
+2 to socketed support gems
Minion Life/Damage

I am considering an Elder warstaff 20% chance to block attacks

Roll:
+1 to socketed gems
Elder mod (8–12)% Chance to Block Spell Damage and
+5% Chance to Block Attack Damage while wielding a Staff

Craft;
+2 to socketed support gems
minion life/damage

and throw a Rumi's into my flask lineup

1. Do you guys think this is still strongest summoner league starter or is there any competition?

2. How is this build doing at uber lab at an early state?

2. It's not really the best lab farmer in my experience, but it can complete uber lab pretty easily for the ascendancy points. Just make sure you have lots of health, enough so that you can tank a big Izaro hit in case you get caught. I'd probably bring some extra life flasks for the traps too. Other than that, it was pretty easy in 3.8, but I might have been level 90 by the time I finally got all of the trials done. RNG can be terrible sometimes.

In case you want to use a unique 2hander, which would be the best choice? Femurs or Queens Escape?

Just use Femurs of the Saints and enjoy 0.6% life regeneration per zombie.

If there are better mods on another piece of equipment, maybe it would be useful to roll +Strength as the second mod on the 2-handed weapon?

Considering skeletons + zombies were an effective phys 70 hits per second (and pure physical), you really dont think the armour nerf is going to outright destroy them? Considering no way to actually give armour pen are we going to have to convert all our dmg to elemental???

Relatively speaking lvl 84 mobs are going up to about 140-150k armour from 4-6k. That translates into a direct nerf per hit from each source of physical damage. Your damage will be getting hit even with this speicifc build about 40 times per second, not just mitigated by a percentage. Rip Summoners? This is the only nerf that really hurts them.

Just wondering, why does the guide suggest using a mace?

Other 2H weapons such as axe also has maim and +1 gems too.

I'll still be rolling this as my starter no matter the changes should still 100% be fine

i never played necro, but i cant notice the difference between other zombie builds, im to damn noob

I am sorry but you seem to be mistaken regarding maim.

of Shaping 68 15% chance to Maim on Hit
Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 18 Maim 1000
of Shaping 75 20% chance to Maim on Hit
Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 20 Maim 1000

is a Shaper suffix mod that can only be rolled on 2H mace (as far as two handers go; I haven't checked one handers).

As per the 3.9 patch notes, this Shaper maim mod in question will be removed from the eligible mods to be rolled.
