PoE builds similar to GUARDIAN RANGED ANIMATE WEAPON!! - League Start Build Guide - PoE 3.23 Affliction - New Minion Gem

That's my league starter, took me a while to figure out and to build (i'm not a minion player) I don't like minions builds because they are button heavy, so i tried to build this one to be minimal (1 main + 2 utility) So far it's doing some pretty good damage, and there is not much to press 1. right click for your AW 2. (occasionally) the big guardian RF 3. (on bosses) arcanist brand for mark + offering (pob doesn't calculate AG of Smithing, i expect total DPS to be at least 1.5x) PoB (target): PoB (current):

So I've really been enjoying summoner play this league with srs and having a blast swapping spectres. Could you make a spectre/zombie/ whatever else without those cheesey herald shenanigans? Including holy relic as well, very much the same build as herald. I feel like the witch class is just slightly too good to warrant it. My last build being a occultist spectre srs setup. Also I'd be in SSF HC for this, trying to avoid hybrid or LL setups, since I just played a CI turned into LL witch my last build very rough draft just thrown together in a minute Without

Wanted to share my masterpiece.

Been a while since I played AW, kind of excited for a Vaal AW skill. Threw together a quick build: Edited United for the mod changes. I took the Mana Mastery node for Clarity reservation, but added the new mana efficiency res to configs in its place. Any thoughts?

I'm going to make a bet that patch notes will give us "Minions have +% chance to poison on hit" as an added mod to the pool for the new base types. We would use the free weapon to auto-cast Bladefall for Lingering Blades. Our Animated Weapons have 75/75 block, 83% all res, and max chaos res with ~24k life. Because they won't die, 2.5 blades every 8 seconds is plenty to sustain the minions and even if not we have increased duration nodes right where we're pathing. We're using Eldritch Battery for the Divine Blessing option (Haste, which lasts 30+ seconds btw

EDIT 1: Prismatic burst doesn't work on spells, so ignore any mention of it. You can try to fit it on Shield Charge 4l, and RF 4l for mapping fast, and use Vaal Firestorm for any singletarget boofing EDIT 2: With Skin of the Lords, use Empower over Cruelty. The bonus skill level makes it a +28 and gigabuffs the damage by almost double. Uniques: and Gear: Use Sporeguard until Skin of lords, with any keystone on tree. It saves you 1 point max. Can experiment with Eldritch Battery or Supreme Ego, no o

Think I'm leaving this guy here and moving on to my next build. This was incredibly easy to level with the new Guardian Sentinel of Radiance, and once Absolution came online (which was very early), it was basically an autobomber through maps with a really fun/active playstyle of re-casting Absolution and keeping Zealotry active with Divine Blessing. Frostblink+Shield Charge made it even zoomier and added more tankiness thanks to Guardian's Bastion of Hope. A Doryani's version would be way more damage but I think probably not
