This build has some amazing possibilities. Basically you can go defensive or you can go offensive. Pros and cons:

Offensive:

a) Bossing:Haste (in combination with Generosity Support + Vaal Haste) adds an incredible, frenzied attack speed. Works well in Delve because down there (300+)is better to kill them fast, so that they can attack you. Defense layers are ok, but not enough. Vaal Skeletons 6 Linked for bossing or Slave Drivers for overall performance work wonders.
If you want to go even further add Pride with Enlighten 4 and you will be a Boss nightmare.
Definitely Go Life+ES hybrid to improve survivability.

Haste Watchers are not very good.

b) Clearspeed. Rearranging your 6Link to use Frost Sentinel spectres, the clearspeed and fun factor improves. Slave drivers are ok too, but ask for more movement. Frosties allow you to go afk.Not as good for bossing or delving. Colouring chest not as easy unless you have a Regalia.

Defensive:

Use Discipline+Grace and you are SUPER tanky. (you could even go Clarity and Combine with a Watchers Eye that gives us 15+% Max Mana as ES). Some minor changes in tree, Geofris Sanctuary+Shapers Touch and you wont die as much. Your ES could easily go 3500+.
This option imho asks for Slave Drivers to improve bossing and delve. Blight encounters are tougher,longer. Ironically, in delve 300+ you won´t kill as fast, so you will get hit more often and mobs down there are WAY more dangerous than those in T15-16. So even this tanky they may kill you. You know, oneshots. You cant let them stay there attackig you until they bypass your defense layers, because elemental penetration hurts us big time. But for mapping and levelling past 96 is the most relaxed way.

Grace and Discipline Watchers are much better.

In my opinion, the best balanced option is :

1. Go Hybrid Life+ES.
2. Get Haste+ Discipline (plus occasional Vaal Grace+Vaal Haste+Vaal Skeletons)
3. 6l Spectres, more reliable, specially in delve and bossing. For blight 6l skeletons are winners though.

My 5 cents.


Awesome insights thanks for sharing Aris!

Totally agree... I see this build as the Swis-army knife of all summoner builds. The versatility is second to none. Offensive setups, defensive, golems, spectres, skeletons, zombies, super speed, bossing, clearing, whatever you want you can practically do with a few simple item and passive tweaks.

Hence why it's The King of all Summoners ;)

13k total... Haha... I challenge you to get to 15k? possible? ;) Na don't do that because you'll probably start to sacrifice too much good stuff.


I could "easily" go 15, 16k or even 17k BUT(and I guess it´s a BIG but) we would have to use a convoking wand and an Archon Kite Shield. In that case We would have to use 4Ls (gloves and Helmet) to have offensive skeletons and Defensive Spectres.

Yes, LOL, CI+ amazing Shield possibly, with over 400 ES just on the item I guess. Nah, could get too boring to play that, where is the risk ;)

Click on your avatar in the upper left corner, it will direct you to your character with items,stash etc. There, Ctrl+Alt+left click on any item you want to post. Go back to your unfinished post and there it will be a linked image.

Guardian is probably my favorite class. Super tanky!
Last league I was face tanking shaper and elder guardians with my lvl 76 guardian and laughing at their faces. Felt so cocky and took uber at level 81 w/o proper damage and junk weapon...didn't work too well due to long fight and DOT...

I also started a minion guardian this league but decided to go meta witch as this seem to be the class to play this league

Finally managed to get my SSF necro over 1k strength w/o the efficient training jewel and the Meginord's Vise Steel Gauntlets...


What's your total Strength? I'm struggling and just want to know what's... possible wit that setup. :) (Given you didn't take any extra Strength passives.)


My str is just over 1000. You can check it out in POB and see my tree and gear in the char sheet-only have 1 SSF blight toon

I did had to take extra str nodes to hit 1000

The switch was painful as I had to give up damage, spider aspect, speed and some life but gain 2 zombies and life leech. Still not sure which setup is better
I need to work a bit on resists, to level few key gems, to get some jewels, etc.

At least I got all major gear and I have 1000+ STR

First time summoner here. I keep wondering why I never picked one to play before. Doing well so far, but hitting a slight damage wall.

Can anyone have a quick look at my gear/setup and provide suggestions for improvements?
*Besides a six link weapon, I'm working on currency for that.

Also, can I run dread banner in a six link on my body armor? Will that make a difference?


Your character tab is private.

Yes you can run dread Banner in a 6 link.



My bad boss. I just changed it to public.
Yes, checked his build. Guardian. Ultra tanky. Stacking Mana and ES and curses. Converting lots of Mana to ES, thanks to Watchers,then going CI. Using a very good ES shield (not the greatest though).

I have been considering doing some tests with a Wand and a Shield. Spectres are in a 6L at the moment BUT even with tons of gems linked to them and after checking PoB they don't deal too much damage compared to the HUGE damage of Zombies. .Spectres could perfectly stay in the Helmet and allow us to use a Shield. That would mean not using skeletons either.The benefit of a 6L crafted Mace of course is the +3 to socketed gems, which allows more zombies. So all in all, we lose quite some DPS and we gain TONS of defenses. Gives food for thought.
