What secondary does have a good synergy with Demon Summoning?

Hi, I am still undecided on a secondary for my Demon Summoning MM. I already have 6 Dark Chars and I hate the tiny range of the AoE Heal on MMs, so I would prefer something else. I was thinking pain but I have no experience with it.

Any suggestions what's working good with DS?

Thanks.

i would say therm or pain work wonders for capping the pets resistance


Helge corr lvl 50 rad/cold
Helge2 corr lvl 50 ice/rad
Techbothelge MM lvl 50 robo/dark
Helge Mauz def lvl 50 emp/ele
illuhelge troller lvl 50 illu/rad
Wiederbelebter helge nk lvl 50 bs/reg
Maennerschreack nightwidow lvl 44
Quantenjaeger ws lvl 3

Pretty much anything. Therm/Pain like vernichterhelge said. Dark is great too for simply Tar Patch stacking with the -res from Hellfire pets, same with Poison.

Pretty much whatever you want. I like Storm personally. Freezing Rain is wonderful and naturally Hurricane's -tohit makes your pets very durable.


Whining about everything since 2006.

Ammo switching for Dual Pistols was my idea:

It is a fantastic set. All the pets work well together and compliment each other without compromising dps so it doesn't matter what you choose in the long run. The only issue is keeping the demonlings alive until you get the full team together which is why I switched from dark to pain.

I agree with the dark heal radius I think they overnerfed that.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I went with pain, since I have dark and storm already. It's fun so far!

i was thinking about ds/pain. Seems the demons are resistance based, which can be a pain, requiring alot of healing, as they take a portion of the damage each time they are hit, instead of dodging it with defense. Been toying with adding both the IO pet resistance for additional 20% resistance, and with the pbaoe resistance from pain, it seems to put some of the demons into the 50% resistance range, which is dwarf or brute level resistance. With a aoe heal, might not be too bad at higher levels.

Add in another 10% defense from the pet IO sets, and another 5 from maneuvers....and they might be pretty darn survivable at higher levels. Use taunt/provoke for BG mode, and i might be pretty stout especially with the heal.

I was just trying to avoid the reist/heal continual heal thing. That gets so boring, hurt heal, hurt heal...But i plan on rolling a DS/Pain once GR goes live. With blueside buff bots coming to the party......should be a fun little tank.
