Occulist 100% Pet Summoner Build For New Players

Hello !!

This guide is intended to help a new player level up extremely quickly from normal/veteran , to elite, and once more to complete ultimate mode. At which point it would be wise for them to pursue a more end-game oriented build like the ones maya has created. I do realize that this is probably one of the easiest specs in the game to level and likely won’t need this much advice to rapidly gain xp, however this guide does explain roughly how to do it the fastest…

.you may have noticed the 1700% pet damage screenshot :slight_smile: I took a break and not actively farming gear for this character or it would be 2000%.

How to level fast with Conjurer 1-100 and beat Ultimate
after you accomplish this goal feel free to try one of maya’s amazing templates that are designed for purposes other than leveling and story mode.

I know this started as a beginner’s guide for leveling, but I have now transitioned the build to End-Game. (It was my first character and is my main still – been putting in some work)

The character is about 90% completed, I just need to run some skill credit quests and he will be essentially near max (99%) the last 1% is almost impossible due to the nature of random drops.

Here is a screenshot with a ton of useful information on the final build
keep in mind this is a double briarthorn setup

Hey Pete. I got curious and wanted to see how far I could push Pet damage myself. So I made a build focusing on that. If you have any free time, could you maybe try it out and give me feedback?

EDIT:
Managed to get a bit more damage and an extra pet - https://www.grimtools.com/calc/b28ERveV

Even Higher (+3000%) - https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4ZDzAQY2

I don’t think I can go any higher on that build though :sob:

Pete is probably the best conjurer player in the world, I hope he can help you Maya

Ok, updated the GT links. Got nearly +3000% pet dmg. Should be enough I think

There is a saying “less is more” but in grim dawn we have this version: “MOAR is MOAR”

Fixed your profile picture for you.

Maybe next time don’t make it something that skirts the forum rules.

you are my hero I will check it out later for sure [ thanks maya I cant wait to see crazy dps build :D]

[sorry about the avatar it was a magazine cover from esquire that featured Rihanna, I made this account using google account and it carried over as my avatar]

bahhh no cabalists :frowning: qq

I will still check it out but I only interest in Conjurer’s :smiley: I tried cabalist and not to my liking comparatively

if you can find any builds that have 22/12 conjure primal spirit and +2000% pet damage or more

on conjurer , I would be mucho gracias :smiley: I am going to try for that some day myself

Edit : for the record I count things like on-use activated buffs so … for example there is an exlir of beastial wrath , and 4pc beast caller set has an on-use activation

both of these stack to give additional +pet damage for like 4 seconds or longer

I am ok with this sort of thing , just trying to find out how to get higher

I notice you gave up some ‘opportunity cost’ to get your % high.

the +200+% damage offhand is cute for sure :wink:

but I use og napesh for the bonus pet
also I use pet relics and pet amulet
trying to build an army :smiley:

I still do want 22/12 kitty and high pet dmg as possible

I am looking over your builds they are interesting for sure

Conjurer done: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/p25rgrKV (3300 DA & +3051% Pet Dmg)

That is without Wrath of the beast tincture since GT links don’t have an option to show such things.

I thought the whole point of this epeen measurment contest was to get as fierce cat as possible? And that off-hand is very good for primal spirit (30% speed etc) but sure, in a Cabalist not BiS for sure
