Blizzard idea behind summons in Diablo games

Sorry guys but there is no pure summon build in any Diablo game. In D2 summons are slow and if not for Corpse Explosion noone would probably play it. In D3 summons work as cooldown reduction for another ultimate huge aoe skill. Guess it will be similar in D4 as well.

I think they just don’t want to have a passive character doing nothing while summons clear the game. Support only.

What a bummer, looks like I might be dropping the entire aRPG genre then. Not into playing as a little girl in PoE/LE.

I guess this genre is just gettin dropped harder than a non seasonal character when a season starts.

I came here for summoner necro/druid builds (Support druid isn’t viable without party finder.)

LE stands for LastEpoch? Because 100%, summoner there works fine.

Yeah if you want to play actual minion builds your choices are D2, POE, or LE (mostly the latter two).
