Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem provides you with many options to play your hero. From the base classes Warrior, Mage, and Ranger, many subclasses can be combined. We will show you how to create the perfect Summoner.
The Summoner in Wolcen is versatile and can be equipped with various skills. Today we will show you a Poison Summoner that primarily fights with its pets, unlike a Mage, Warrior, or Ranger.
The Immortal Summoner
Your Main Attributes
- Wisdom: Increases your status effect chance.
- Toughness: Increases your health points and power shield.
Invest the majority of your points in Wisdom to increase the chance for negative effects on enemies. Invest a few points in Toughness to reach at least 15,000 health points. If you have already reached the maximum level (90), you can invest all points in Wisdom.
Your Talents
- 2x Death Spots: Summons a Poison Golem.
- 3x Hunt Swarm: Summons an undead archer.
- Plague Explosion: Creates an effect area where enemies or summons explode upon death.
Here’s how to modify your abilities: The more often you use an ability, the higher it levels up and can be modified. This can even be done multiple times. Modify your abilities so that your pets handle almost everything on their own. In our gallery, we give you an overview:
Skills for the Summoner Build in Wolcen
With each level, you receive a talent point that you can invest in the talent tree. This is quite complex and allows you to experiment a lot.
The following points are suitable for the Summoner:
Area Plaguebringer (Third Circle)
- “Gravedigger” grants a small chance for enemies to drop green orbs that grant a poison damage bonus of 30 %.
- “Victim of Flesh” reduces health points and power shield by 20 % and increases the health points of the summons by 25 %.
- “Toxic Emission” adds a poison stack to enemies within 7 m every 2 seconds.
Area Kabbalist (Second Circle)
- “Insidious Decay” adds additional status effect stacks when an enemy takes damage over time. Reduces the damage of all other damage types by 30 %.
- “Immortal Sacrifice” grants +5 % damage for each status effect stack on a slain enemy.
- “Severe Suffering” increases the status effect stack by +1.
Area Assassin (Second Circle)
- “Jade Legion’s Blessing” converts 50 % physical damage into poison damage.
Area Time Weaver (Third Circle)
- “Horrific Cross” delays part of the damage you receive.
Area Praetorian (Second Circle)
- “Selfless Bravery” increases all resistances by 25 % after a block.
- “Avenger” increases your damage per resistance percent by 0.75 % and decreases critical hit chance by 50 %.
- “Kingless Aegis” allows you to block with any weapon and increases block chance by 6 %.
- “Holy Oath” applies 2 debuff stacks when blocking an attack to all targets within a radius of 7 m.
- “Blessed Mana” increases the total value of all resistances by 40 % as soon as you pick up a health orb.
Area Siege Breaker (Third Circle)
- “Banner of Warfare” grants a fortress point per second up to a maximum of 10. Each point increases block chance by 4 %.
- “Rejecting Vessel” grants Unyielding Points when you remain still. Increases damage per point and decreases movement speed.
Since the summons do all the work, first skill the area Plaguebringer to increase their health and damage. There are also some useful perks to increase poison damage there.
Next, you will go into the Time Weaver area to obtain Horrific Cross and delay damage intake.
On the way to Time Weaver, you will first grab some key points in the Kabbalist area to enhance poison damage.
By taking a small detour to the Assassin area, you will gain additional bonuses for poison damage.
Then you get more resistances in the Praetorian area. Additional resistance, block chance, and a damage boost based on physical resistance.
Finally, in the Siege Breaker area, you will receive your last survival skills to relax in the harmful smogs while your pets do all the killing.
Equipment Considerations
Summons do not scale with your critical damage or attack speed. Therefore, you can ignore these stats.
- Equip a staff with spell damage buff.
- Mainly equip heavy armor with a lot of resistance.
- Look for additional poison or material damage.
How to Use the Summoner Build in Wolcen
The Summoner is very easy to play. Summon your Golems and Archers and watch them do their work. You position yourself with the Plague Explosion in the middle of the action and fight with your staff. When it gets hairy, you use the Golem’s ability to cast a shield. The Archer’s ability, on the other hand, is used when a champion or boss needs to be defeated.
Due to the modification of the Golems, you receive nearly 66% less damage. The resistances and block chance do the rest, and your Summoner is virtually immortal.
