The level of the armor is too high for the level of the animate guardian.
It is similar to your main character trying to put on a high level item early in the game.
In general, Animate Guardian should not be used at a low level. You should just level the gem and not summon it til end game. The build guide suggest waiting until Animate Guardian is at least level 19 before summoning and equipping.
The higher the animate guardian gems level, the better its survival chances so that you don't lose your equipment if it dies.
It works! thank you very much ! Y realized too late that i have summon it too early. i went back to tier 4-5 to lvl it up.
Quick question, is there any reason to favour a 2H Mace / Staff over a Bow?
I see several bows with the required stats for sale, and you can equip a quiver with a bow, making it easier to reach resistance caps and add life/strength...
Any thoughts?
I would say because the requirements. A bow may have a higher dex requirement you possible not have with this build. And i think you can't use cyclone with a bow too.
Instead of putting it in your chest you can make a 5L in your ring freeing up your chest for 6L auras still.
I'm currently running with just a 4Lin ring and it's working really well. Still deciding on last gem but Minion Damage is probably best.
EDIT: Stanelis made a suggestion in th comments of the video to use Empower to give a 4th Spectre. That is an awesome suggestion I wasn't even thinking of. I'm going to do this for sure... fun factor just went up another 33%!
Wouldnt a %Increased minion dmg weapon be better now since ur using Holy Relic and Ranged spectres now so they will also benefit from the %increased minion dmg. Fortify sadly only supports the gems socketed in the weapon.
just something of note to anyone playing CI and not using spirit offering, or anyone not using spirit offering in general... sirus sucks. zombies just get shredded without the ES spam from offering. fight was super easy but it was annoying having to drop an aura, remove gems to lower mana cost, cyclone for desecrate and then try to summon them mid fight lol
Hi, Im following the tanky version of this build and recently i saw empyriangaming's video on his summoner. He uses a 6link skellie on his body and auras on his gloves. I want to free up my gloves to try this and i hv a few questions.
1) Can my AG and spectres survive if i remove minion life support?
2) Would removing my carrion golem reduce my damage by too much?
I'm really enjoying this build. But I seem to have a problem with surviving... sometimes I get 1-shot on random yellow T16 maps. I have ~ 11K combined HP/ES, max resistances, ~30% chaos.
Could anyone please check out my profile and see what could be improved?

Thanks very much.
I think your profile is locked off, cant see your characters.

empyrian is playing a 1500ex+ bossing build so don't look too much into it. but yes, you can run skeletons but why bother? zombies phase everything in seconds outside of sirus.
How much money would I realistically need? I'm on pretty decent tanky gear and have about 50 ex to spare. That should suffice, shouldn't it?
pretty much just need a watchers eye and brawn jewels. rings are fairly easy to get as we don't need much resist on them. rest of the gear is the same.

thats my current PoB. need to play around with the tree yourself depending on your lethal pride. mine is 25% so the pathing is a bit weird
