hey guys,

I'm kinda asking myself which one is the faster clearer. Let's say for Chaos or baal or chaos or trav.

The point that summoner can do Ubers easily doesn't matter for me I got a smiter. I'm talking about good end equipment.

Summoner with beast enigma and pride on merc and poisoner with dweb Trangs and all with poison facets.

Thanks for your help and advice !

The minion - poison glitch is kind of annoying but poison is so much more fun than a summoner. And you wont be "that guy" in pub games. In terms of clear speed, I will still give the edge to a high end novamancer for places like pits, cows, and tz. Summoner will be faster vs dia, baal. etc.

Poison . Max -epr on gear. 1 PT revives for meat shields, 1pt lower resist, 1pt amp, max ce and nova synergies (bone armor synergy last)

Infinity merxlc, insight golem.

Tele, lower resist, nova, amp, ce, repeat.

Depending on area mobs, lower resist maybe unecessary, go straight to amp for Merc first kill then cececece = screen cleared.

Summoner is only better if you want to do ubers. Otherwise requires way more gear, and less fun playstyle (personal preference). Note, summoner probably has edge vs bosses. Decrep + infinity merc + revives do alright, but the psn dmg isn't good vs bosses.
