Summoning Questions

Here are some things I observed I'd just like if some1 could confirm this:

OS - Norm: No immunities (not that it needs any anyways )
OS - NM: Poison/Phys Immune (Great to tank Minions of destructions !)
OS - Hell: Poison Immune (where's the phys gone ? )


My other question is about the spirit/dire/grizzly relationship, since it is not 'really' the same as a synergy will +x to skills help to precast a grizzly (for the hp boost from dire and ar and def boost from spirit)

I'm not 100% sure on the Poison Immune in Hell, but yeah, that looks right.

And for the precasting, latest info I remember is that you can prebuff Grizzly and Dires and SWs, but with the Wolves, if you take the gear off so you have less skill points than the number of Wolves that you have casted, some of them will disappear.

Eg. You have level 5 Spirit Wolves with all your +skill gear on. You cast 5 Wolves. They have all the bonuses of a level 5 skill.

You then, however, take off the 2 +All Skills items that you have, therefore reducing your SW skill level to 3. Two of the Wolves will disappear, but the remaining 3 will have level 5 attributes.


Make sense? I might be wrong, but that's the latest I've heard.



Oh, and since I haven't seen you before, Welcome to the Druid Forum!!

Well, that's on pre-buffing proud.

He was talking about the Ed% Bonus provided By Grizzly, Life provided to other summons by Dire, and the Def/AR provided by Spirit Wolves.

Yes, +Skills will work with these bonuses. Just like +Skills helps Skel Mastery.

As for the Immunities, just checked it and entirely correct.

I only have 1 theory as to why that is, and it comes back to the Global Physical Immunity of 1.09... Monsters started with 50%, and that may have been the case for the Summon as well. In 1.10, that bonus is eliminated and it would be on the Oak as well. Very weak little theory though.
