Continuing my journey of playing summoners on everything but Necromancer. This is my 4th summoner this league. All have been on different classes.
A tri-ele Inquisitor Absolution Summoner

Personally I don't like Absolution, but the build concept itself is quite potent and I felt like sharing, because its somthing different. Let me quickly explain why I picked Inquisitor.
Inquisitor does provide about the same damage as Guardian for elemental minions. Guardian has only one very good notable - Radiant Crusade, which we can pick up for super cheap via Forbidden Jewels, because Inquisitor Summoners are not a thing.
Guardian on the other hand doesn't have good options for Forbidden Jewels. The drawback to Inquisitor is Providence. Its kinda wasted. Here it works out, because I needed alot of strength and it saves me a suffix atleast. But the rest is fantastic.
The conc ground regen is great sustain for you and your minions and Pious Path enables MoM/EB and combos very well with Grave Intentions. This turns the ES of the minions into actual extra life rather than just a one time buffer kinda thing. Also the es regen via Pious Path isn't just crucial for MoM. Without it this build would not be able to sustain the EB Blessing and Absolution spam. For defense I am running Determ/Grace/Defiance + 100% Spell Supp and the already mentioned MoM/EB, Lethe Shade on my Relic, Endurance Charges from Composure and obviously the high sustain that comes with Inquistor aswell as 80% curse effect reduction through conc ground + belt enchant.
Stormshroud for easy ele ailment avoidance and Garb on AG for crit and slow immunity.
For minion defense I decided to invest in max res. All my minions have 90% max res (8% from mastery and 7% from shield) + Grave Intentions + high life and es regen. Other than Baranite Cleric (squishy boi), minions don't die in this build. In fact AG is so sturdy, that I was able to drop Doppelgaenger for Garb.

Absolution itself is a horrible minion. Luckily you don't have to use it. This build is suited for all elemental minions. With a few adjustments and changes you can run pretty much anything.
Here is how an elemental SRS build could look like on Inquisitor:
