ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Love to summon minions,but unfortenatly they seem to be weak,low dmg and surv,they are dying basicly after 1 boss aoe :/,and i have spend so many pionts on them :/ + 5/5 rune giant :/. I really could use some tips how to distribute class points + what gear i should aim for,thx in advance

Did you max the skill that gives the skellies half your resistances? Then you can focus on maxing your resistances, particularly as a lich with 85% max resists.

Also linking to your char could be useful.

Necrotic - 5/5/1/5
Adv Minions - 1/5/1/5
Nightfall - 4/1/1/1
Shades - 1/3/5/3
Necrosis - 2/1/1/0
Grave - 1/5/0/0
Animus - 1/2/0/0

Correct link is: http://te4.org/characters/127105/tome/2 ... b66e01ada8

You could do with having higher resistances and damage modifiers. Those get copied onto your minions.

Damage too, HousePet?

Something is not right in that char, he is wearing Aetherwalk which gives 12% arcane resist and it does not show in the char data. I did not check all his equipment but its impossible to be at that high level without finding some sort of resist gear.

Your minions will eventually die, no matter how much resistances you give them. That character sheet seems bugged. That character has decent resistances, judging from your equipment. All advanced minions, except liches, are mediocre. Skeletons do more damage, have bone shield and resemble, and can use runes.

thx for help so far, so what dmg modyfiers are working for summons,and i have checked necroes who beat the game in rouge mode and they all had plenty points in nightfall tree(wich i dont have),i wanted my pets to do all the job but i guess its imposible :/ (btw im using necro addon from housepet).And im stuck at the last 2 bosses,and im not able to kill them...:/

You can win pets-only on normal. Cast Rigor Motis/Undeath Surge, hide behind a wall, and cast arcane eye to watch the fight. Summon more pets as needed. I don't think your pets inherit your damage bonuses, since there was no difference between my summoner necromancer and darkness-focused necromancer's minions in terms of damage.

Summoned creatures inherit all you damage% modifiers.

That is useful info, HousePet, thanks. So it's useful to have a greater staff set to Star aspect as necro for the physical damage bonus, rather than a straight darkness staff.
