3.14 KING OF ALL SUMMONERS. Zombies & Skeletons & Spectres on STEROIDS! | League-Start to End-Game

Right now I am trying the Tanky version of the build but even with the full Sovreingty cluster, I cannot run Purity of Elements, Discipline, Flesh and Stone, Dread Banner, and Aspect of the Avian all at once. Any help?

I suggest you choose between purity of elements and some other aura (aspect of avian). Just get all your resists elem and chaos capped using gear (rings, belt, amulet, quiver etc). I normally run with purity, discipline, flesh and stone, dread banner until I have resists capped which is around the time I get a minion bow and a quiver that gives me the needed chaos and elem resists I still need. Then I use discipline, flesh and stone, dread banner and aspect of avian with the quiver. Even with an enlighten support 4 gem in your geofri plus certain skill nodes, the tanky build just won't allow you to run more than 4 auras. Once I realized that, I just stuck with enlighten support 3 to save on funds. With that setup, I still have about 94 mana. If you are not using a bow and quiver, but a staff or mace, just remember the bow won't allow you to cyclone, which is why I cast desecrate and spirit offer manually allowing me to save two sockets which I use for vaal skells and feeding frenzy. I hope that made sense.

So i am trying this build but even with pretty good starting gear (6L weapon, tabula rasa, goldrim) and every gem recomended for this build i am not able to even kill Piety in act 4. also i feel like holy relic seems to be useless because it only activates when u deal dmg your selfe. Has anyone ideas to fix this?


I would suggest a starting build very close to the tanky setup. It keeps me alive all the way to end-game content. It's nice to have the tabula rasa at the start as well, but you'll need to replace it eventually. As soon as your character level permits, I would get a queens decree (level 27) or a queens escape (level 38). A 4L or 5L will suffice at that level. Then get the better 5L femurs staff (level 58), also a 5L geofri body armour (level 64), alberon's warpath boots (level 49), and once you have at least 1000 strength, the baron helm (level 26). This should get you all the way to Act 10 Oriath at around level 65-67ish. Just skip pass all the mobs (no need to kill all of them) and get to the quest objective and the waypoints. I have been able to do this for the last 2-3 leagues. Also get the shaper's touch gloves which you can use at level 66. Once you have more funds and points, invest more in the build to keep your character and minions alive. I'd try to get a 6L minion bow (level 70) and quiver as soon as I can afford it, which is usually around the time I reach level 93ish. Keep elem and chaos resists capped as much as possible at all levels. Try to keep minions alive with minion life gem. If minions die, so do you. Don't forget those auras... they complement each other, and with specific support gems. Start with purity of elements and discipline then work your way towards having 4 auras: discipline, dread banner, flesh and stone, aspect of avian. I hope that made sense. The build works, you just need to know how to get the best out of it with the funds you have at your character's level. However, I find that I hit a new wall at around level 95, it is very difficult to get beyond level 95 with the tanky build...just too much of a grind for a casual player like me...but it can get you 24 to 37 challenge rewards accomplished.

I don't mean to insult you sir, but your build is extremely garbage for howmuch you advertise it to be the ultimate best build.



The advertisement is out of date I would agree, as it is definitely not the King of summoners now. However, it is still a really strong build and more to the point, it's clear for a new player to try out. The quality of a guide is not in the build alone, it's in the presentation of it, and this is an established guide for an established type of summoner. King it is not, valuable as a resource it still is. I have no idea why I'm now talking like a low budget Yoda, but whatever.
Just wanted to say thanks for a great build guide. I've been using this build since I really started playing in Metamorph league and its the only build I play since I stick to 1 character only.

Thinking about trying to build a standard league variant as OP as possible :)
this is actually my first planned build in PoE and it really helped a lot.
I was actually playing mindlessly on my first characters and decided to look into the forums for the first time and this is what I tried.
I experienced most of the end game contents with this build (tanky variant) and thought me a lot of mechanics of the game.
Maybe not the best there is but still pretty awesome especially for beginners like me.

Thanks brunowa and PoE community who helped me out and still helping me today.

STICKY

Welcome to the FASTEST, the STRONGEST, and the TANKIEST summoner in the history of POE (no, that is not an exaggeration).

Sep 2020 Update: Ok, the above is now an exaggeration... this build was so insanely OP when it was created in 3.8 that it has been nerfed every league since then. So unfortunately you can no longer experience the game-breaking mechanics of this build... but it has now become an average to strong, casual and relaxed style build that can still carry you all the way through the game with some investment.


DPS: Over 1 million DPS per zombie (upwards of 2 million per zombie... multiply that by 11+ or so zombies. You can also throw on an extra few Skeletons doing another 1 million DPS each if you wish).
TANKY: Over 6,000 eHP (historically we achieved 25,000 eHP)
SPEED: Over 150% movespeed (historically we achieved 300%)

Not only that, but this build is probably the most VERSATILE summoner in the history of POE. The core build runs with Zombies as the main source of DPS, but we can easily run Skeletons, Spectres, Golems and Holy Relic to demolish all content. There are so many cool variations you can do with this build while still creaming all content, you can enjoy this from league-start to league-end.

BUILD INTRO AND OVERVIEW:

Introduction

Welcome to the FASTEST, the STRONGEST, and the TANKIEST summoner in the history of POE!

This build OUTPERFORMS every dedicated Spectre build there is (and we are not even a dedicated spectre build). Example: https://youtu.be/ldZZ_FmDLCs

This build OUTPERFORMS every dedicated Golem build there is (and we are not even a dedicated golem build) Example: https://youtu.be/MEImsLQKbMg

This build is the FASTEST SUMMONER in the history of POE. We reach over 200% MOVEMENT SPEED consistently and can get over 300% movement speed if you want to go all out on speed. Example: https://youtu.be/WA046CFs7Mk

This build is EXTREMELY VERSATILE to suit any playstyle. See Alternate Setups for some fun suggestions.

This build is INSANELY SIMPLE & EFFECTIVE. There is no crazy crafting required or massive 10+ exalt gear like other builds. It's built around uniques that everyone can easily access and replicate. You can do all content without clicking any buttons. Examples:
- Minotaur run using just a quicksilver flask: https://youtu.be/DE3Kcx_jfGM

Every flask, every skill you use, ever golem, every aura, every curse are OPTIONAL. We do all content WITHOUT THEM so you can put in whatever you like to suit your playstyle.

Here's the FASTEST UBER ELDER KILL IN HISTORY PLAYING WITH ONE HAND (no flasks, no skill bar, and no chest armour to show you are super tanky even if you were to use nothing or a tabula):

https://youtu.be/mn7exUyqf48

And here is Uber Elder killed using NO GEAR WHATSOEVER... yes that's right... WE DON'T NEED ANY GEAR to complete end-game content:

https://youtu.be/l3P3cTQL_qA

Don't let the OP'ness of this build put you off. Yes, it can be your LEAGUE STARTER as unlike other build guides that require a crazy piece of gear, all items are relatively cheap to get started (see budget gear) and can be upgraded along the way.

Enjoy!



Pro's and Con's

Pros:
The Greatest Summoner Build in the History of POE

BUILD DETAILS:

Gear, Gems, Tree, POB Code


There are various options of setups (did I mention that this is one of the most versatile builds?). Use these as a starting point and then as you learn the build and how it all works, flex it to suit your own style!:

3.11 BUDGET STARTER SETUP


Yes, you can comfortably farm T16s on a budget with this build.

https://youtu.be/8g_DGSyN-o8

My recommendation is to start with this setup, farm end-game and make some $$$ to transition into a late-game setup.

POB: https://pastebin.com/Xx3EAYWC

Ignore gem levels in the setup. You do NOT need level 21 gems etc.. just get a level 1 gem and start leveling it up as you go. Same with Enlighten, just start leveling one and get it to level 3. If you can't run all auras (which you won't be able to initially), simply drop Flesh and Stone.

An alternative to the chest below is a Geoffri's Sanctuary chest.







3.11 TANKY END-GAME SETUP


POB: https://pastebin.com/ByZBVHFj

This is a solid all-round choice that most people transition to after starting with the Budget Setup. It doesn't have the Speed or DPS of the SPEED FARMING or RANGED SPECTRES versions, but it's the safest way to level to 100 if that's what you want to do.

For Thread of Hope, allocate Ravenous Horde and Cruel Preparation.

For the Bottom Left jewel, that is my Elegant Hubris giving me 240% increased minion damage. So ignore the Skull Cracking pathing. Your Elegant Hubris or Lethal Pride will be unique to you. See the FAQ on Lethal Pride/Elegant Hubris if you don't know what I am talking about.







3.11 DUAL WAND + DUAL OFFERINGS SETUP


Ok guys so you wanna just run around without cycloning and just watch everything die around you?

You wanna run with two wands? Why? Because your a WITCH and that's what witches use.

And you wanna run with not one, but TWO OFFERINGS (or THREE if you REALLY want)?

I got your back!

Just grab yourself this baby:



And also a trigger wand:



and then just watch your offerings get auto-triggered as you just run through and around packs while things melt around you. And YES, we take Mistress of Sacrifice with this setup so YOU also get the benefit of the offerings. YES, you CAN run all three offerings at the same time.

For Thread of Hope, allocate Ravenous Horde and Cruel Preparation.

For the Bottom Left jewel, that is my Elegant Hubris giving me 240% increased minion damage. So ignore the Skull Cracking pathing. Your Elegant Hubris or Lethal Pride will be unique to you. See the FAQ on Lethal Pride/Elegant Hubris if you don't know what I am talking about.



Enjoy!



3.11 CLUSTER STACKING SETUP

This is courtesy of Elorathiel who has been vigorously testing out Cluster Jewels with this build and has come across a winning combination that provides massive minion life (they will never die) and massive DPS!

Elorathiel написал:
I've been asked by some to drop a small build guide in the thread when it's finalized so here goes:

Let me preface this guide by saying that you don't have to have my gear. I understand that my gear may not be obtainable for everybody, at least not immediately. The gear is not GG but it is fairly expensive to players not involved in crafting/selling. I have several friends running this build with lesser gear. It's working just fine.

My friend Adriano447 and I put this together when we were discussing whether it might be able to take my single cluster area HUGE ZOMBIE build and possible do two large clusters for even bigger zombies. The build is very tight on points. Expect to have most of your points at 97/98. It depends on your Lethal Pride rolls.

This is NOT strictly a dual wand build. I am using dual wands, yes. I prefer them. However, the passive tree will work just fine with a typical zombie 2H weapon. Simply change the skill gems around to match your preferences. You could even use a Bow/Quiver if you want and manually cast Offerings. It doesn't matter.

This is a very powerful endgame build. Those of you who don't like your minions to die, ever. This is for you. My minions are nigh unkillable. The video below shows minion health (32 zombie, 28 AG, 26 Golem):

https://youtu.be/SBDhBv0FX3w

Wand crafting:
Brunowa has already added my wand crafting guide to the first post. Check it out.

Quick note about trigger wands:
Trigger wands trigger a socketed ability when you cast any ability. They are cast in order, from top to bottom. If you need something to go off first, place it at the top of the wand. I like my Phase Run up there. But others may like Desecrate up top with Spirit offering following it to ensure they have Spirit Offering up as soon as possible.

Please use the normal builds to level. This is an end game build. Whether you are new or not to the game and necromancers, please use the existing build guide to level up your necromancer. When you hit about 85 or so, you can start thinking about migrating to this build. The large clusters are expensive (for good reason) and have a level restriction. And yes, they are essential to the build. All of them.

If you have any questions, I'm available in game. Keep in mind, I'm a player like you and I might be busy. Please don't take offense. I will get to you.




3.11 SPEED FARMING SETUP (WHAT I MOSTLY PLAY WITH)

So you like clearing maps faster than those Ranger guys with bows?

And you still like having the fastest boss killing capability in the game?

And you like farming Conquerors and Sirus faster than any other build in the game while making shitloads of $$$?

Then this setup is for you!

Video: https://youtu.be/CAZaWbFtoqI

POB: https://pastebin.com/SZmdnv4A

This build PUMPS Auras to the MAX while zooming around with a speed belt, flesh offering, and phase run (and haste)!

Dread Banner, Haste, Vaal Haste, Pride, Purity of Elements, Flesh & Stone + Maim, Aspect of the Avian, and Clarity if you wish. Yes that's right... up to 8 AURAS getting buffed like crazy.

Definitely my favourite setup (along with ranged spectres) as it's Hella fun demolishing everything so quickly and easily. It is a bit more squishy than other variants but still packs 5000 hp and 1000 es.

For Thread of Hope, allocate Ravenous Horde and Cruel Preparation.

For the Bottom Left jewel, that is my Elegant Hubris giving me 240% increased minion damage. So ignore the Skull Cracking pathing. Your Elegant Hubris or Lethal Pride will be unique to you. See the FAQ on Lethal Pride/Elegant Hubris if you don't know what I am talking about.

P.S. This is the setup where I do my 1 or 2 second Conqueror Kills. Hands down the FASTEST and HIGHEST DPS out of any summoner in the game, and perhaps any build in the game (except for meme builds that have no defence).

Best in slot Bow and Quiver because of speed AND bonus quiver stats:








3.11 RANGED SPECTRES SETUP (SPECTACULARLY FUN)

So you wanna shoot massive beams or balls or missiles out at enemies?

And you like clearing fast and wide and demolishing all content?

And you still like killing Conquerors in 2 seconds?

Well then this setup is for you!

Video: https://youtu.be/2dz8Rf7fE_I

POB: https://pastebin.com/YHXmyzR4

This setup incorporates Ranged Spectres in a Hungry Loop ring. There are a shitload of different ranged spectres to choose from to mix up your gameplay. My favourite is Frost Sentinels found in Act 8 - Lunaris Temple.

Note in the video above I simply swapped in Minion Damage on Al-Hezmin purely to see how fast I could kill him. Leaving in Minion Speed will make the fight last about 2.5 seconds instead of 2 seconds :P

Note you can go much FASTER but it takes more balancing of stats. Use a Speed Belt for 36% movespeed and use a bow and quiver for another 20% movespeed. This is what I actually run with, but have added the setup in this section because it is easier to gear.

For Thread of Hope, allocate Ravenous Horde and Cruel Preparation.

For the Bottom Left jewel, that is my Elegant Hubris giving me 240% increased minion damage. So ignore the Skull Cracking pathing. Your Elegant Hubris or Lethal Pride will be unique to you. See the FAQ on Lethal Pride/Elegant Hubris if you don't know what I am talking about.

Enjoy!




Gear Detailed:

NOTE: IGNORE GEM SETUPS IN THIS SECTION... use the above Setups for gem selection.

Weapon:


Rare crafted weapon is best. See Weapon Crafting Guide section on how to do this.

Queen's Escape is a great option giving good movement speed for minions.

Femurs of the Saints is the best budget version for DPS.

Mon'treguls Grasp is less DPS but is cheaper and can be used with a shield, allowing for more defence such as resistances, life, and energy shield.

A Chaber Cairn can also be used. I killed Uber Elder on a 5L Chaber Cairn pretty easily so that's another cheap option.


Armour:


Geofri's is the most tanky of the chests. It provides a massive about of defence from strength stacking. We get great ES and resistances.

Victario's is great for speed farming. It provides a massive boost to auras if you are running that setup, enabling you to do a tonne of DPS with your zombies and speed farm through maps easily.

Saqawal's provides a balance with more defence than Victario's (but less than Geofri's), and more offence then Geofri's (but less than Victario's).

Rare Astral Plate is great for overall defence. Life, resistances, armour, and an extra zombie and skeleton. Doesn't provide as much eHP as Geofris but is a good option if Geofri's is too expensive.

Tabula is great for getting started but you will want to upgrade to a 5L of one of the above chests at high tier maps because you will have no defence with a tabula.

Other options include the "The Queen's Hunger" for extra zombie/skeleton, free offerings, good life/ES, or "Saqawal's Nest" for increased attributes, reduced mana reservation, and aspect of the avian buff.

If you want to use ranged spectres, just swap in a Tabula or get any BBBGGR chestpiece. See Spectres section for more details on this setup. Alternatively you can put ranged spectres into gloves on a 4L.


Helmet:

Just great for zombies and all minion builds in general...


Gloves:


Shaper's Touch gives us a huge amount of ES and is best in slot, particularly when coupled with Geofri's Sanctuary.

Triad Grip's are for converting your damage to chaos damage. This allows you to scale chaos damage through Spirit Offering, Withering Touch, Withering Step, and Despair curse. It's a fun playstyle but overall slightly weaker than pure Physical.

Meginord's Vise is a budget item to get +100 strength to help us get to 1000 strength for Baron leech bonus


Boots:


Alberon's Warpath boots are great for giving us massive strength which we get benefit from all of The Baron, Geofri's Sanctuary, and Shaper's Touch.

Seven-League Steps are perfect for Speed Farming. Throw them on when you are not bossing.

Rare boots are great for helping with resistances. Get ones with strength, resistances, and 30% movement speed.

Stampede's are a cool alternative which you can annoint. This provides less movespeed, less strength, and no resistances, but it is a relaxing playstyle simply cycloning through packs as long as you can get your strength and resistances elsewhere.


Belt:


Rare belt gives us massive strength which we benefit from The Baron, Shaper's Touch, and Geofri's Sanctuary.

Headhunter gives us great strength, plus all the fun and cool mods for mixing up gameplay.

String of Servitude is best in slot for speed mapping. My favourite belt in the whole game.

Cyclopean Coil is a cheap way of getting 15% increase attributes and more strength. Can also give freeze immunity if you get your stats right.

Soul Tether provides awesome defence. The 2% damage leech we get from Baron helmet pairs perfectly with this belt, giving us a constant supply of life and ES leech.

Umbilicus Immortal is just awesome fun for smashing through bosses as fast as possible. This is more a gimmick and a fun item than for every day use.


Amulet:

Astramentis gives strength for Baron bonuses. Also helps with dex/int stats for gems such as Haste.

Aul's gives some strength, but also Pride reserves no mana, so it's a free damage aura! This is a great option if you are not strugglign with strength or dexterity elsewhere.

Rare amulet gives a lot of strength and can help with resistances.

Oils
- Anoint Death Attunement


Rings:

Rare rings give strength, life, resists.

Hungry Loop is an option to get another 5 link. This makes capping resistances harder but it can be done. You can add your 5L skeletons here or even a 5L ranged spectre setup which is insanely fun.


Flasks:




3.11 Weapon Craft Guide


Wands

Buy As many Prime Alchemical Resonators as you can afford (say 5 or 10). Buy the same amount of these fossils:

Jagged/Corroded/Shuddering/Metallic.

Buy ilevel 72 convoking wands, if you want best chance at making something good.

Buy ilevel 84 convoking wands if you want to make a GG wand but have less chance of making something good.

Scour the bases if they aren't white.

Smash the resonators into the plain bases. If you get 1/1. You win. If you don't like the one you receive, if you are blessed to receive one, sell it and use the proceeds to make some more until you are happy.

Good luck!


Two-Handed Mace/Staff

There are a few options for crafting weapons (I am currently using the second one with fortify):



They all work great... craft one like below or simply buy one on the market.

Here is a simple guide for the staff:

1) Buy the base that has (or goto Alva's temple to try drop it):
+1 to level of socketed gems; and
Minions have x% increased damage
Minions have x% chance to deal double damage

You will probably get something like this:


I had the above with another prefix "Adds x% fire damage".


2) Use an Orb of Annulemt to hopefully annul off the prefix you don't want. As in the above, I used an orb and had a 1 in 4 chance to remove ""Adds x% fire damage"". I was lucky and got it.

3) If your suffix remaining is good, you can craft from here. If not you may want to remove it. In the case above, I would want to remove "reduced attributes" because it's worth nothing and I would rather exalt slam something good down the track.

So I would craft "Prefixes cannot be changed".

4) Scour the Staff. This leaves only the prefixes we want: +1 gems and the minion mods.

5) Craft "Can have 3 additional mods"

6) Craft "+2 Socketed Support Gems"

7) Craft "Minion Attack/Cast Speed"

That will end you up with this:



For the Fortify route which gives 20% More Damage, you need to do the following:

1) Buy an Elder 2h Mace or Sword.

2) Scour it

3) Orb of Transumation to make it a magic item.

4) Use orbs of Alternations until you land either:
+1 to Level of Socketed Gems; OR
Socketed gems are supported by Level 1 Fortify

5) Use an Orb of Augmentation to try add the other mods you need.

6) Use a Regal Orb to try add the other mods you need.

7) If you don't get +1 Socketed Gems AND fortify, scour the weaopon and go back to 1).

8) If you have _1 Socketed Gems AND either fortify or onslaught, congrats!

9) You are now at Step 3 in the Staff example above.. progress from there.



Spectres and Animated Guardian

Spectres:
We get 4 Spectres with our build (you need a level 21 Raise Spectre gem to get the fourth).

Offensive options:
Carnage Chieftain: Gives frenzy charges to all of your minions (Act 7 Ashen Fields)

Host Chieftain: Gives power charges to all of your minions (Act 7 Ashen Fields)

Mervail's Retainer: Curses enemies with Vulnerability (in maps with mod "Area is inhabited by Sea Witches and their Spawn")

Defensive options:
Ruins Hellion: Taunts enemies giving extra damage and less damage taken (Act 8 The Quay)

Diabolist: Curses enemies with Enfeeble (Act 1 Upper Prison).

Undying Evangelist: Has a proximity shields and defends the army (Act 3 The Sceptre of God).

When running Melee Spectres, my recommendation is to ALWAYS have at least 1 Carnage and 1 Host Chieftains. Then take your pick of one or two of the other options.

Ranged options:

- Flame Sentinals (Act 8 Solaris Temple)
- Solar Guards (Act 8 Solaris Temple)
- Goatman Fire-Raiser (Act 6 Prisoner's Gate)
- Frost Sentinel (act 8 Lunaris Concourse)

Ranged options are great for clearing and just really fun in general. Support your Raise Spectre gem with Greater Multiple Projectiles, Faster Projectiles, and Spell Echo. For a 5th link (ie Hungry Loop) add Empower Level 3.


Animated Guardian:

The only mandatory item for your AG is a Kingmaker (weapon). Everything else is totally up to you. Here are a couple of suggestions:

Helmet: Mask of the Stitched Demon
Chest: Crafted chest with "Gain 10% of Maximum Life as Extra Maximum Energy Shield"
Gloves: Southbound
Boots: Victarios Flight

Budget version:
Weapon: Dying Breath
Helmet: Leer Cast
Chest: Belly of the Beast or Bloodbond or Ambush Charge or Gruthkels Pelt
Gloves: Southbound
Boots: Victarios Flight

WARNING: if your Animated Guardian dies you also lose all the gear you equipped on him. To prevent this I would recommend not using him until your gem level is 19 (more HP). AG is not essential, you can kill everything in the game without him, but it's a very nice quality of life.

People have mentioned that their AG has died in the Hall of Grandmasters as well as Acid Cavern maps, so perhaps turn him off for those maps.

Hello everyone,

I have invested quite a bit of currency to build the Speed farming version of this build and it is still in my opinion quite strong.

What is for sure and its stated in the build is that now it takes a lot to make this work.

The speed version is still amazingly fast and fun. You simply rush through everything while letting your zombies wreck havoc.

It's not trash as some other have said. I haven't played any other summoner build before this one because it was the first that actually explained the mechanics simply and efficiently.


On additional point to look into is that there seem to be a new supporting spectre we can get from Yellow influenced maps called Arena master.

More info there https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/fug81j/new_buffing_spectre_arena_master_and_what_you


Anyways thanks a lot for this build. I don't think I'll go back to anything else apart maybe a fun melee build :)

Thanks for the input. I'm actually considering trying it despite necro nerfs.

When you say "quite a bit" of currency, what are we talking about?

Just a guess on the low side:

bow = 7-10 exa
quiver = 1 exa
saqawal armour = 3-5 exa
empower 4 = 4-5 exa
enlighten 4 = 4-5 exa
raise spectre 21 = 2 exa
flasks = 1-2 exa
amulet = 1-2 exa
jewels = 2-3 exa
the rest of the gear, gems, rings = 5-10 exa

I would guess, at least 30 to 45 exa not including the optional elegant hubris, watcher's eye jewels and the awakened gems. The price would also change depending on how far along the league has progressed.
