Velium Hunter Summoned Me

[hagglebaby]

I've killed maybe 6 of these before while camping Brood mother. I hadn't been summoned by them once. Must have gotten a high level one, it summoned me repeatedly and killed me. Wiki doesn't have summoning as a special ability. I guess I need to stay out of LOS?

I also haven't gotten a brood mother pop so i guess it's good practice

Unfortunately, line of sight won't protect you from being summoned.
Yes, you must have gotten a higher-level one. NPCs level 50 and up generally summon (it's kind of exceptional when they don't).
What class are you?

[hagglebaby]

Enchanter. Lvl 60 undinged to 59. Didn’t have too much Trouble soloing the camp at 59 but I never got a named pop and apparently I never fought a velium hunter this high either

I had a charmed pet on the mob but I slowed him twice and kept chain rooting him and refreshing my root. Maybe I got aggro that way

Could be; root is significant aggro since the December 2022 patch.

Yea the first 6ish Velium hunters that I killed, I wasn’t summoned once. I also didn’t root. I would just slow and then keep rune and bedlam memmed for when charm broke. When a charm broke, I would color stun, color stun, mezmerization, allure, re-bedlam, re-rune.

I would be using a minimum of 1 rune per battle. I figured if I started rooting, I could take less damage and waste less runes. It was working really well until my first velium hunter which summoned me like 5 times.

In between summons you can toss a blur on the mob and get agro back on your pet. If your getting lots of slow resists you will be very high agro

Is blanket of forgetfulness the best spell in this situation? I’ve been using it for the consistent mem blurs it gives me
