BEAST , HOTO, PRIDE, INFINITY, ETC 4 Summons

[SbCaes]

Okay. i know there are a lot of threads out there about how the Beast vs the Infinity /Pride Debate/CTA. But I was wondering If someone would be kind enough to list each individually there benefits and which set up is the best. :grin:

Im currently debating between hoto, CTA , and a bEAST. what do you gusy think? and again this is for a skelli summons necro. :grin:

Call to Arms is strictly switch material. Heart of the Oak and Beast are the best choices for actual combat. Heart of the Oak if you lack Resists, Beast if you don't.

Use arm of king leoric (AokL) + "Splendor" runeword in a +3RS/SM necro head >> HotO when it comes to actually summoning the skellys.

AokL gives +5 to RS/SM, splendor gives +4 to RS/SM for a total of +9 skills when summoning.

Then switch to Beast + Homunculus/<whatever shield you use> once you have a full army. 1 or 2 skellys will die due to the switch, but those still alive will remain at the higher level at which you summoned them.

HotO honestly isn't the best summoner weapon.

Ok ok not for summoning...

But if you want to do uber trist or other things the 40% fcr is REALLY nice. For casting terror and teleport.

But of course the beast is nice for the dmg. So it is just a matter of taste.
