    Thanks for the testing. Interesting how youtubers differ in their perception of some of the builds (e.g. Frrost Nova). I'd probably do a necro for start this time (CE, yay).

    Agreed - after seeing theirs I was rather underwhelmed when I tried it myself. I guess some of this can be constrewed with how we felt about it too... partially subjective partially from testing. Tried to keep as even as possible. Forb etc is just much safer than nova and you lack single target dmg is why its placed there.

    I want to play poisin/plague java but this list makes me think I should start with frozen arrow. I love that build too lol so I'm glad either way. spent most of my time the last two seasons with a summon druid (I only really play 1-2 charactgers to about 90 and then I'm done for the season, I don't quite go as hard as some folks) and I may end up spending a lot of time with amazon this season. Thanks so much for the list.

I love to have a character that can do everythink in solo ( like the necro summoner with physical and magical skeletrons ) thanks for everythink , I joined your discord also sanyways

    Interesting, I heard that wrath is the BiS, with vigor merc it's sexy. Wouldn't a beast on you be a great upgrade with fanat for your adds too? None the less, summoner is a great, safe choice for farming, there's definitely just faster builds!

    My starter isnt here - If I do end up playing :D Good list regardless, Although those lists are really hard to make as you could make an early ladder build jump a whole tier if you just kept farming the same area over and over. Like if you just teleport to bosses with a sorc, Hyda easily jumps to S tier along with meteor. But if you want to clear the way through, I feel like those are good tier to be in as you put them already. (just 1 exemple among many)

It was ok, but fire druid was significantly better that they had to be separate Tiers and I could only put fire druid to A so it had to be B. I knew this would be a controversial one. Ultimately though, play what you prefer and find most fun!

Hydra is like no brainer easy to play skill and You put it on "B" tier... Lightning nova + lightning storm is very viable now and You put it in "C" tier...

    Sheeniq, you can watch the vods if you like... lightning sucks early. Ofc it will be great late game, but this is a starter build. Lightning isnt built for early game. Meteor > hydra, And nerfs to hydra, in comparison to its other fire builds is definitely slower. Appreciate your input though, it's always up for discussion this was how i felt with my testing.
