Mar 08, 2020 21/23 Raise Zombie, 5/20 Awakened Minion Damage Support, 21/23 Feeding Frenzy Support, 4/0 Empower, 5/20 Awakened Melee Physical Damage, and 5/22 Awakened Multistrike Support. So far, it's uncommon knowledge that minions of minions only benefited from Minion Life Support, Minion Damage Support, Minion Speed Support (which was buffed big time!), and Elemental Army formerly Minion & Totem Elemental Resistance Support. As for Feeding Frenzy Support, the Spectres were able to receive the Feeding Frenzy buff when. As for Feeding Frenzy Support, the Spectres were able to receive the Feeding Frenzy buff when their minions hit. If only for a millisecond. The glowing ring begins to form, then just as quickly dissipates. Whether this is a visual bug or intended aspect of the gem I can't be sure.
Pros:
The Greatest Summoner Build in the History of POE
Fast clear
Fast farming
Easy Sirus
Easy Shaper
Easy Uber Elder
Easy all content
90 minions doing everything for you
Minimal buttons
Can play POE while watching Netflix
Can play POE with one hand (mouse only)
Feels as smooth as butter
Versatile, can go more offensive or defensive with easy gem/gear swap to suit any playstyle
All map mods (except Phys reflect)
Cheap (can do T15 on a few chaos... simply upgrade your gear as you progress)
Extremely high damage (Fastest Uber Elder kill in the history of POE)
Tanky (15000+ life, overcapped resistances, physical mitigation, leech, defensive minions, fortify, meat shield, and more.. and of course, extremely fast)... just watch me absorb a Shaper Beam in the Uber Elder gif at the top.
With late game setup you will reach over 15,000 eHP!!
Never die
Cons
People will get jealous of how you can farm three times as much currency as them and take down all content so easily on such a cheap starting build without pressing buttons

Levelling
Start with Summon Raging Spirits... Transition into Summon Skeletons and Raise Zombies. Support those main skills with minion life, minion damage, feeding frenzy, melee physical damage, melee splash... (or any other minion gem you come across). Focus on gems in final build and start leveling them.
Gear doesn't really matter as your minions do the damage and they are based on gem level. In saying that, do make sure that you continually upgrade your gear and links as you go. Use a chaos or two to buy a helping leveling unique if need be (see useful leveling uniques below).
When you reach Act 6 just make sure you are resistance capped. Goldrim is fantastic for helping with this.

Get end-game gear and links.
We drop the pathing to Death Attunement because by this time we should get it annointed on our amulet. Google 'POE Annointment' if you don't know how to do it.
