Necromancer was my favorite character in Diablo 2 and so in PoE I kinda overplayed necromancers, which is why I had a long break. But I think I'll enjoy getting back to letting minions to all my work for me :v:

Made a T14 Consevatory map run of my build a while back, should showcase classic summoner strength pretty well. I've played Classic summoner every patch and league ever since they removed Snapshotting in 1.2(?) and Classic Summoners have never been as strong as they are now, imo.

Is it worth it to go "all in" on Spectres, and get GMP and faster casting/faster attacks and then use the flame ribbons, revenants from BotB or chaos alchemists from the sewer? I loved using those, but AFAIK they've been nerfed somewhat and I dunno if I should spec fully to spectres while focusing less on zombies and skeletons; or if I should just play it safer and go full zombie focus with spectres as support units?

Spectres all the way. Flame Sentinels are the best at the moment, and the Fireball buff will make them even stronger. My Spectre setup is Raise Spectre - GMP - Ele Focus - Fire Pen - Spell Echo, I use Zombies mostly as meatshields and an Animate Guardian with Leercast/Dying Breath. My LL build is running 7 auras(Haste, Discipline, Purity of Elements and Grace with Hatred, Anger, Wrath linked with Generosity) which makes them solid for single target. But Spectres is where the real damage is at and your clear speed will suffer greatly if you focus mostly on Zombies.
You could always go SRS, but personally I don't like SRS and it doesn't feel as satisfying as having an undead army killing everything.

Oh yeah, Commander of Darkness is probably the most important passive node for any classical Summoner. Commander of Darkness is categorized as an aura, so aura effectiveness boosts the effectiveness of it, meaning that the 10% Increased Damage / 5% Attack / Cast Speed is boosted by aura nodes and generosity..

This morning, I downloaded the torrent file (plenty of seeders around already), during the offline/patch I replaced the old content.ggpk, took another 12 seconds to download the 658mb (patch difference), the whole thing of updating took 2 minutes.
Atlas is out!
Waiting for queue though :v:
happy farming boys!
[editline]2nd September 2016[/editline]
Oh looking at the guild list and there are so many people that have been inactive for more than 1 year even 2 years
Man I have not seen server crashes like this since Act 4 came out.
This is one of the roughest launches in PoE history...
DC'ed, logged back in, 10924 people ahead of me in the queue and not ticking down.
Ye, disconnected twice and put in queso with 1952 chips in front of me.

[quote="Chris"]Our launch has uncovered a big problem where our game instances are taking up ten times as much memory as they did previously on our servers. This is significantly affecting our realm capacity and we have had to impose a queue to prevent users being disconnected while playing. We are working on a solution. We do not have a timeframe yet but will try to get the realm stable and high-capacity as soon as possible. We're very sorry about this! Hopefully you're enjoying the league and new Atlas content if you have managed to log in successfully. [/quote]
Wow, that must be pretty rough for GGG. I wouldn't want to be at the GGG offices right now...
how can they call that a queue if they just locked everyone out
i hope they restart
Purged everyone from the guild that hasn't logged on for at least a year. If you want to rejoin the guild to play the new league, just ask for a new invite here.

I'm always using the ascendancy weapon effect that I forgot that the challenger weapon effect looks amazing, especially with the hydra helmet + divine sign MTX. (Those awesome lines that get drawn from the eyes with divine sign!!)
Anyone else started decorating their characters?

The Challenger weapon effect is my favourite weapon effect in the game. I love how it looks on my Standard main character, works very well with Demigod items. Kind of wish I went for Perandus weapon effect, but hindsight is 20/20.
I just got kicked out of the Guild..? Or did I accidently leave somehow?
Can I get a re-add? TheMostGenericBV

You were probably inactive for more than a year, the guild was filled with inactive people so Flash purged

I played Prophecy, and played with some chacs after the league ended to test some things.
I also talked to some of you guys like, today or yesterday and got kicked when i changed chacs.

I apologise then, might have accidentally kicked you while checking another player's last online date!
I'll readd you when I log on today.

Actually it seems like its alright now for some reason, must have been something with the server issues from before.
Just logged in and i'm back in the guild, when earlier today I didn't see the group stash and my guild tab said I wasn't in one.
got to level 72 in HC Essence, then ripped to porcupines
guess I'll reroll in softcore Essence

Blood for the blood god?
The best part about these boxes, no stupid filler MTX such as Darkness Fireworks in the last one. They replaced Fireworks with 5x Skin xfer which imo is a great choice. You're always going to get your 25pts worth even if you get Skin xfer.
It's not going to feel as shitty buying these compared to the darkness ones.
tempted to get one with my left over points but I know I'll regret it instantly
So someone killed Shaper in standard and he dropped this sword:

681 PDPS. Jesus fucking christ. With better rolls it's as good as mirrored 2H swords in standard... with 20% increased AoE.
