PoE Minion Instability builds similar to [3.25 #4] - SRS Popcorn 4hours into the leage - Path of Exile Settlers of Kalguur

Here's a quick update to Kay's popcorn SRS build I'm considering for SSF league start this Friday. I've tweaked a few things, increased some defenses. Have a SSF starter gear set and bare bones tree and damage looks decent. Any thoughts? I'll need to tweak the build more once PoB updates with new craft bases and gem modifications.

So we all know good old SRS. You have 20 of the little buggers, they swarm around headbanging things and living out their short blissful lives. Sometimes they even go out with a bang, and the sound of 20 skulls exploding multiple times a second is the good old SRS Popcorn. But what if the explosions were bigger? MUCH bigger? (tl;dr: 3.8 million current damage per SRS pop, could get up to 22mill under absurd conditions; pob: clips: mapping: harvest: and drox: http

Animate Guardian gear: Note: You need 35% elem resist and 55% chaos resist to res cap your guardian. Get a level 20 Animate Guardian Gem so it doesn't die. Cheap gear: Leer Cast - gives you 50% increased damage Sentari's Answer - cheap easy curses (sometimes) Belly of the Beast - Defenses to keep him alive Sign of the Sin Eater - prevents elemental ailments when you guardian is nearby Rare boots with chaos resist Rare gloves with unnerve on hit and chaos resist Alternatives: Windscream boots plus gloves with curse on hit (to apply additional curse) Legacy of Fur

So I was thinking about what spells would benefit from the Brand Recall tech that was brought forth by a random redditor. Overall, with \~1s brand recall and 7 brands, it's equivalent of casting a spell an additional 7 times a second, but spells are triggered on top of you, have less aoe, proj range and fire in random directions(tested this briefly, not sure). Most spells would be very clunky to use, we need specific proprieties: Triggerable by Arcanist Brand. Benefit from pseudo cast speed/burst. Good coverage despite drawbacks. Something like Eye of Winter, Arc or Forbidden Rite woul

I made this Guardian CI popcorn SRS league start build. I use spectres, AG, and flame golem. Discipline, Determination, Summon Skitterbots and Defiance Banner. I use wave of conviction for extra degen with flammability and hextouch. DPS 2mill. Let me know what you think and feel free to use this and tweak it. &x200B;

All just fun theorycraft and none have been tested or recommending as a leaguestarter. Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks! SRS Ignite: big damage from Mark of the Red Covenant combined with Replica Siegebreaker (\~10mil DPS with this decently high level of investment). Might just be worse than the equivalent of a regular ignite build though. Alchemist Mark Flameblast: scales one big poison and ignite hit through Consuming Dark and Replica Volkuur's to maximise th

Like many others I am excited and hopeful to crack in to a new viable and fun league starter with Guardian SRS. In this POB my goal was to be realistic/conservative, and give myself a lot of wiggle room. Please critique and give constructive feedback and tips. Goal is to get to red maps and maybe do a few shaper/eater/exarch kills. Thank You! &x200B;

I've optimized somewhat the POB, thanks for the tips. Here's a T16 map showcase with only the Sentinel. I died because the sentinel despawned Sample boss fight with Veritania.
