Minion Pact Arc Ignite Elementalist | PoE 3.28 SSF Build Guide

----------------------------POB LOADOUTS---------------------------- Low Budget (Lv 90): This was my actual character where I could run T16 Rares and I would say the earliest you should play the build (Aegis/Elegant Hubris not necessarily required). This doesn't include Greater Chain or Large Cluster Jewels w/ Primordial Bond - these are a big upgrade for the build. Current Character: Aspirational: ----------------------------MANDATORY ITEMS NEEDED---------------------------- - Minion Pact Support - Congregate Support - Arc of Oscillating - Summon Stone Golem of Hordes - Dark Monarch with "Maximum Number of Summoned Golems is Doubled" - Bonemeld Amulet - Obliteration Wand ----------------------------NEXT PRIORITIES TO FARM---------------------------- - Greater Chain Support - Aegis Aurora (or well crafted Shaper Titanium Spirit shield with high ES and 5% ES gained on block) - Elegant Hubris (Caspiro variant) with at least one 80% minion life (preferably with a second good mod as well) - Two 8 passive Minion Large Clusters with Primordial Bond before the Jewel sockets. If rolling 2 notables, avoid Feasting Fiends and Skeletal Atrophy as this will put Primordial Bond to the back. - Minion life tattoos for Int Nodes and Chance to Block attack damage/Phys tattoos for Strength nodes. - Find any suitable Unique boots to corrupt for +2 to Socketed Minion Gem corrupt. Some examples: - Windscream - Legacy of Fury - Stormcharger - Abberath's Hooves - Gang's Momentum - Tempest Rising (Uber Sirus drop) Flasks: - Cinderswallow with Malediction on it - Atziri's Promise - Taste of Hate - Medium Cluster Jewels: - Fire DOT Medium - Blowback and Wasting Affliction (Fan the Flames enables us to drop ignite prolif on gloves) - Minion Life - Hulking Corpses and Blessed Rebirth - Well rolled Cord Belt so we can get a second anoint on the build. - Plenty of Coin of Knowledge corrupts to hit as well. Higher investment/Minmax: - Grace of the Goddess - Megalomaniacs with Primordial Bond on them. - Oriath's End Flask - Fracture Primordial Bond on Large clusters and Refracting Fog to any relevant implicit. +2 to Socketed Minion Gems on Boots or Gloves, ideally recomb on to a good base and fracture. Mageblood Switch, able to go CI, Melding of the Flesh for 90% all res. ----------------------------DAMAGE CALC EXPLAINED---------------------------- As we are running the following: 12x Stone Golem of Hordes 2x Lightning Golem (running 2 for almost perma mana regen uptime) 1x Chaos Golem 1x Flame Golem I calculate the "Damageable Minion Life" in the Config section as follows: 12*(Stone Golem of Hordes Life) + 2*(Lightning Golem Life) + Chaos Golem Life + Flame Golem Life / 16 = Damageable Minion Life Refer to the Calcs section to find Minion Life (make sure you tick Show Minion Stats to get this). ----------------------------GEAR SECTION----------------------------
