Testing a druid summoner on R6 after update 54

Wake me up inside R6
Grim and Barret R6


I still very much doubt that spending 3 feats and heroic and epic enhancement points are worth it. They did finish the quest in grim while i was dead though...

I just tried subversion 3 times.
I got furthest the first time where i got to the end boss.

My conclusion is that for reaper 4 and lower you should be good with a summoner druid. Actually it can be pretty easy.
Higher reaper introduces vengeance and despair reapers which can wipe your summonings.
I did not have enough dps for fear reapers on r6 in subversion and died due to them a couple of times.

I think what you give up for summonings can be fun for first life toons where you do not plan on doing higher than reaper 4. 3 druid past lives helps though... but don't they all. If you plan on soloing this might be a good build.

If you plan to do above r4 i will not recommend a summoner druid, but if you like to test a flavor build this can be quite fun.
