From IchiMorghulis quite a few pages back, I've been using his suggested setup for quite a while, and it's pretty awesome. " IchiMorghulis a écrit : AG-Minion Life-Melee Splash, equipped with Dual Dyadus, BoR, Icetomb, Rainbowstride, and a pair of rare glove with very high fire and lightning resist and some life. The clear speed is a little bit better but clear speed for these specters are limited by their AI, their range, and minion speed. Against Harbingers, the clear speed is noticeably faster. Where this setup really shines is against bosses. The bosses melts 50% to 100% faster than without the AG. (I have done T16 bosses with this setup but not yet tried shaper, so I don't know if not having Fortify will hurt the AG) 1) If my Empower is only lvl 2 with +1 level bonus to AG and I summon AG now- will the AG gets the +2 level bonus, when Empower reaches lvl 3? 2) You can switch melee splash for Fortify for shaper? AG - Minion Life - Empower - X (Fortify / additional accuracy / Melee Splash) Someone earlier in this thread mentioned that Additional Accuracy support is needed for Shaper, but dunno for now 3) BoR on AG is working with a chest armor? Icetomb is more the offensive part, are there any other options for more survivability? I'm not sure if your AG will level up as you level up your Empower, to be honest. Why not just buy a corrupt level 3? They're only ~5c, and it beats trying to level one yourself. You can absolutely switch to Fortify for Shaper, however, with a +2 helm and Empower 3, - and some careful use of convocation - most folks don't seem to find it necessary. Not too sure about Additional Accuracy - we only need the AG to hit once every few seconds for the additional damage buff. We don't care about the actual DPS output from the AG, so any additional hits or crits are mostly pointless. BoR absolutely works with chest armour on the AG. Remember, it's not using the actual armour. "Animated items are consumed by the spell" - so it's actually using a spectral copy of the item. I've talked to folks in Spectre chat - 6666 - who are using Belly of the Beast instead of icetomb. Gives a nice boost to your AG's health, but it's a bit too pricey for what's basically a disposable minion IMHO. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD Feel free to message me in game if I'm on.

I just found Many Wikermen in Overgrown Ruin. Its the same as before, You need to summon wikermen where ever you can low level then you can go to the map and summon like no tomorrow and then you get them, Atlest for me i have found multiple of them. and tukuhamas vanguards so yeah.

" llamaegg a écrit : Hey guys, any opinion on where to start saving for next? I was thinking about aiming for a 5-6 link Vis to replace my Cloak (though not 100% sure yet? As a hardcore player the extra survivability of Cloak is hard to pass up, but the extra Spectre seems pretty clutch for later bosses), and a Scourge to replace my Advancing fortress once I finish uber lab. Also, what's the consensuses of Animate Guardian? I have a pretty nice +2 minion helm in my stash, and been leveling up a AG, Minion Life, Fortify and Melee Splash in my second gear slot in case I decide to go for it, but have never messed around with it before. Seems like it would be crazy good though. with the +1 gem levle corruption helps immensely to the AG survival since it boosts both AG and the empower level, with level 4 empower and 21 AG this puts him at level 26, I haven't had my AG die since I made this change, it was some much needed peace of mind for me. Minion damage on gloves, or life for that matter is good advice, alternately you could try to get yourself something like this	Posté par hedonist le 21 oct. 2017 06:23:27 Citer ce post

Minion damage on gloves, or life for that matter is good advice, alternately you could try to get yourself something like this but with corrupted boots you are committed to use the mentioned gems, at least 1G with AA - otherwise you can switch for faster ae clear speed with AG-Minion life-melee splash-empower so for more luxury we can craft a 2nd boots with BBRR for map clearing or so the question is maybe, if AA is really needed if you have lvl 24 - 26 AG (well i dont count empower lvl 4 as common, so lvl 24-25 is more realistic) on the other hand you would be more flexible with a +2 helm Dernière édition par Atum84, le 21 oct. 2017 06:42:26	Posté par Atum84 le 21 oct. 2017 06:38:45 Citer ce post
I use 4 wickermen with increased aoe as 6th link when I map and it still instantly clears, I don't need my AG at all for aoe purposes, but for anyone that might, good advice my friend. Same with the helmet slot, however I'm using so my helm slot is also pretty much set in stone as well. Main reason I blew some currency on AG was to be able to equip him with full offensive utility and still not lose him. Currently I have him equipped with southbound gloves with vulnerability corruption, windscream boots for the extra curse(yes it works as long as he has a curse on hit on himself), icetomb, dual dyadus and finally BoR helmet for endurance charges and style points.
