Honestly, this is getting frustrating. Another patch just dropped, and once again there’s absolutely nothing to improve summoner builds. The game seems more and more focused entirely on PvP, with new essences and features aimed only at that mode.
Meanwhile, those of us who enjoy playing summoner builds are completely forgotten. No new essences, no gems, no tweaks to improve minion gameplay, damage, or survivability. It’s as if this playstyle doesn’t even exist in the developers’ balance vision.
The result is a more and more limited meta, where summoner fans are stuck with outdated and underpowered mechanics, while other builds keep getting constant attention. If the game wants to keep its community engaged, you can’t just abandon an entire style of gameplay like this.
The question is: when will summoner builds get the respect they deserve in Diablo Immortal?
