- Cookbook's 1000+ Corruption Summon Scorpion Beastmaster Build Guide Showcase
In this episode of the Hall of Fame, we interview Cookbook, someone who has been working and refining the Summon Scorpion archetype, and has finally felt like it is time to show it to the world! This build unlike a lot of the minion builds rolling around YT right now has no bugs and is not abusing overtuned uniques!
Here's a link to his forum guide :

It's worth noting that Venom Nova has the spell tag. I ran a build using Lightning Nova and leveraged Tempest Strike to increase the scorpion's spell damage. It's a cool skill, there's a solid variety of ways to make it scale.
I've been wanting to find a way to make lightning nova shine for a while now but even with the addition of tempest strike i found it kinda fell flat and had issues with single target. Also, while it is a spell, venom nova itself doesn't scale with spell damage as it has no base damage and the hits it delivers have no added damage effectiveness.
Its nice to see content from the part of the community not everyone sees. im honest, i dont realy look into the forum, even discord im only on every now and then
Just popping into the comments for if anyone has questions regarding the build that i didn't cover in the interview.
actually realised one thing myself, in the initial echo you see me do i'm actually using an avian puppet; a cuckoo that's turned into an exalt, in place of bastion of honor. This is 100% purely for *speed*, for the most part even at 1k corr the bastion is a little overkill for mapping and you are most at risk from DoT's, which the bastion does almost nothing for dealing with, so you can run an avian puppet with as high rolled implicits you can get as a clear speed enhancer.
edit:
1.1 cycle details: build ends up mildly buffed overall! we copped one nerf in the reduction of mana regen given by the hybrid mana weapon prefix, but otherwise it's all upside.
The changes to the aspect of the boar nodes end up giving us 5 more passive points to work with in the tree in exchange for 5 strength.
Warcry node changes free up 3 skill points to invest into either the frailty node or haste duration and mana efficiency.
The addition of duration to the cornered beast passive node (previously beserker) is hugely beneficial for life based variants
Flat health regen being moved from boots to amulet opens up a very strong and effective (but high investment) hybrid EHP vessel of strife build along with wall of nothing
bunch of new beneficial uniques in null portent (high investment HP build chest), monument of protection (defensive 1h weapon), naals tooth (clear speed 1h weapon), scales of lemniscate (BiS 2h melee), and world splitter (potentially easy farm for 1lp slam as it has hybrid mana built in)
Cool build. Is there any benefit to using "Triage" on the Eterra Blessing skill tree - thinking it may hard to find the scorpion at times.
Sorry to ask such a question, please take no offense, I'm not a native speaker (CE-EU), I'd like to know, judging by your accent you're from down under?
@@ddelmarsmith not really, lowest health ally includes you, and you will often be lower health than your scorpion. This would likely mean you'd end up getting less casts on your scorpion than otherwise.
to make it easier i only have minion health bars enabled and i position my cursor on the other side of my scorpion from my character, this makes it more likely the proximity target can only target your scorpion.
tbh when they were doing a visual rework on the summon scorpion i was extremely disappointed in how muted the visual effects were, if they were more clear then it'd be easier to track your scorpion via the nova effects.
@@Gookrak not quite! I'm across the ditch in New Zealand.
@@Ics_Cookbook Thanks for quick response. Didnt realize my character is also considered an ally. Strange wording. Appreciate the tips.
I'm a simple man. I read summon scorpion, i click.
Really nice walkthrough.
Oh i knew i know that name , had that Red ring discussion with him in Discord , now i finally see the Scorpion Nova in action :)
im either dumb or Cookbook sounds suspiciously like Chris Wilson from Grinding Gear Games
god dang you figured it out Exile haven't you
chris leaves poe for cooking builds in LE 🤔
What a cool Build. Maybe my build for 1.1 But, can you provide a lootfilter?
Awesome seeing these showcases! It would be extra good to be able to see the character sheet as the person is going through things, to see what they're talking about directly for those of us not so familiar with ability/node names etc.
I see you've made an effort to show lil screenshots of the nodes mentioned. I'd still love to see the character sheet as stats are gone through though!
"Reminding you about the notes about 1.1"
Love it, definitely gonna try it. Will it still be great in next cycle?
while we don't have exact details on what the balance changes might entail for beastmaster, we've had no indication they're looking at it for any significant balance adjustments. The most likely nerf would be a hit to the general beastmaster damage reduction package (ursine strength/aspect of the boar) and while that would weaken the build slightly, it would remain incredibly capable.
the most likely thing for the build going into next cycle is that it'll simply end up unchanged. There's simply a lot more things that need more urgent attention than the beastmaster tree and the skills used in the build. Might end up slightly buffed through indirect things like a new item base or mildly beneficial unique item.
@@Ics_Cookbook Wow thanks for explanation! Haven't tried beastmaster yet, can't wait to play it in 1.1. Thank you for making such a great build, it looks really fun to play!
kind of new, can i lvl this build or do i start with another build first then respec to this , and if so what build should i start with?
u have loot filter for this build and trade in new cycle?
Is this build good after the fixes?
Did 1.1 change this?
1.5k hours on one build?! Holy shit mate :D
somebody order a wellness check on him pls :P
the gameplay is just that good, what can i say?
Shouldnt serpent strike actually be the replacement of swipe in this build instead of blessing of eterra?
I would play more summon builds if game didnt push me to use swipe in every summon build tbh but swipe is just way too good to replace with anything in current game
In the current state Serpent Strike should be left in the bin. But to seriously answer you, no because Swipe is just that strong. The 100% healing to your minion is to influential to not use. It allows you to stack max minion HP and also ignore your sustain, healing effect, leech etc
@@Dr3adful thats what i meant, i dont wanna be lockd %100 for a skill for any summon build. Diversity is important.
Swipe is way too strong to pass
@@mertuygun4825 then they should make serpent strike not useless hopefully, or make it an interesting side option
This is my isssue with LE in general. Which is making logging in to play it very difficult. If you want to play, you are forced to use certain skills on certain classes, not because you want to. But because you HAVE to, either because the skills are broken, or just too good. Or the skill you want to use is junk
@@mertuygun4825 i would very much like for serpent strike to be a viable alternate choice for the build but the implementation of its nova procs is just so awful it simply isn't. Replacing swipe with serpent strike is almost a strict downgrade, swipe simply gets you more mana, more novas, doesn't limit weapon options, and is better at hitting groups for more consistent procs of aspect of the boar and viper.
there are actually a few beastmaster minion builds which don't use swipe, auto attack crows and aspect of the shark raptor both use tempest strike.
please let us know once patch notes drop how the build is looking and if you still recomend it for next cycle , apreciate it!
i'll edit the pinned comment with info on the patch as well as my build guide for it once patch notes come.
