Orion72’s Dominating Blow Guardian

While most summoner PoE builds can allow players to take the backseat and let their minions do the fighting, the Orion72’s Dominating Blow Guardian is as hands-on as those he calls forth. If you’re into that kind of in-your-face action, then this different breed of summoner is the right one for you.

Pros:

  • Great defense
  • Good offense
  • Affordable
  • Can run Hardcore
