Yeah you can get a stupid high raw +summon amount if you sacrifice some QoL on a few items. I’ve just been having the itch to play a summoner but don’t feel like rolling another necro right now, appreciate you taking the time to respond

Alright guys - new playstyle - no werewolf transform, summons only.

Fanta was just not cutting it for summons only. Needed more damage.

New merc act 2 with Might + Reapers for Decrep cast

I switch to pride with +20 conc

Now i can just sit back and watch summons murder everything.

+17 Might
+20 Conc
+ Merc cast Decrep

I have been easily able to kill diablo and baal.

So might and Conc is not enough damage to make summons really useful. I think they really need fanta to start being useful.

Just tested that werewolf damage still works with bows.

Going to put my 20 concentration wep on might merc.

--> Faith bow equiped on druid main

This will total 3 damage auras for summons.

I would prefer maras ammy for higher bo buff.

Shako is nice as well. I dont really tele much since you cant tele while in wolf form.


edit: I am now wearing a 3 summon ammy

edit edit: Might try vigor bow as well and use revive instead of fanta if the damage still sucks really bad.

try heart of wolverine instead of oak sage for more damage.
also maybe metalgrid for iron golem - like a non eth reapers lol

That’s because Ravenlore is the best hat for this build. 5 ravens, each doing 6k a hit, and they don’t get body blocked or have pathing issues.

Op drop the focused auras for the inferior mammals, and go plus skills. Reaper merc, solar creeper, and twister.

not sure how long a 22 iron golem will last but good idea to put cheap insights on and not need any mana leech.




what is your experience with solar creeper??

I am getting tired of wolves they are really low damage.

If I respec without spirit wolves, ravens will do less damage. Bummer. You are forced to waste points in spirit wolves.

Was thinking of a build without spirit wolves but ravens do a lot of damage waaaaahhhhh

Edit:
also bugged. I should have +44 skills but only +43 so blizzard is fucking me up some how with this.

+skills items
7 skillers
3 summon ammy
2 shako
2 nigma
1 bk ring
1 cta
2 spirit
1 anni
3 torch
1 arach
1 battle command
=+24 summon skills but I only have +23 in game.

Edit:
Well I thought of another build we could try later.
+20 bear, ravens, wolverine, poison creeper, rabies

Bear will still be doing 5k dmg
poison creeper will be doing 5k poison dmg
rabies will be doing 13k dmg

This would remove the weak wolves since blizzard tuned them ultra-low damage.

While rabies would be a much stronger attack than fury.

I would need a trangs glove, andys helm for poison res, poison sunder.

The problem then becomes the wolves being nice meat shields. If its just bear and poison creeper, im scared poison creeper will just die since its the lowest hp vine. Even at +44 poison creeper only has 1100 hp. What a fucking joke blizzard tuned druid summons like pure crap.

I think ill try might merc +20 conc with wolvertine and fanta bow on druid next. I will be keeping the wolves since we are adding 2 extra damage auras.
I will also be changing fury to feral rage. We will take feral rage with + lycanthropy for only 3 skill points into shapeshifting. Rest into summons.

Sorry, you still max all the synergies for Raven. I was saying to use solar creeper as a 1 point wonder. With max gear it’ll replenish 25-30% of your mana orb, and the creeper resets and can immediately go again when you teleport.

Same with twister, use it for stuns.
