they do benefit from minion damage. Without it, they don't benefit from any of the minion stats.

Ah, I mentioned that cause the Lategame V1 gear set has Hand of Rathman in it, but not Sentinel's Sorrow listed, that's why I was wondering

I am new too Median XL...

for this Pax Mystica am I suppose to just find a Long Staff with two sockets and slot in a Tir Ruin and El Rune and put it in horadic cube to make a Pax Mystica? or should I try and find a Marrow Staff or just go for a basic long staff? Do they need to be normal or magic items?

Also am I suppose to just ignore putting all points in other trees until I max out Frostclaw?

You need a normal (grey) staff, such as Short Staff or Long Staff. Dont use Marrow Staff because it's a necromancer only staff, and falls under a different category. Place the runes Tir and El straight into the staff's sockets, and it will make the runeword.

Also am I suppose to just ignore putting all points in other trees until I max out Frostclaw?


Only put 3 or so points into each of the 3 totems themselves, because the mana cost gets insane quickly. Instead focus on maxing Dark Gatherings and Dirge ASAP, after that my votes goes to maxing Soulbond. Your totems will do a ton of damage without the mana cost.

Does it matter what order the runes go into it? Was trying to make Pax Mystica

    This procs when you resummon your totems. It's mainly meant for farming or labbing, and we don't want to invest into it too early.
Can anyone confirm if it works? I'm not sure they work like Fireelementals :think:

Try a grey staff. And yes, the order does matter.

I think this is incorrect for mid tier body armour? "Body Armor: Sacred shrinecrafted Demon Head"
