Ye, my SRS feels kind of weak to be honest. The thing is I can't comfortably pop legions in yellow maps. Even in those white glaciers I can barely pop everything and I'd like to move onto at least shaped glaciers. Single target on bosses is very respectable and generals melt in 3 seconds if singled out, but spread enemies like legions are kind of a problem.

Dmg per skull is 40k atm, also have 3x solar guards as auxiliary fire, zombies and golem for a total of 12% phys reduction.

I'm using unleash with srs - I don't know how I ever lived without it so replacing it for a dmg gem is out of the question.

I'd also like to avoid using a staff or a bow - my auto cast spells in the sceptre are just too good to part with.

I was looking into maim chests but the dmg increase in pob is meh at best.

Any suggestions? Insightful advice will be tipped!

You need minion speed on your srs setup at least you want your srs to move as fast as possible. Get rid of fortify and put in minion speed. You dont need that unless you're going to start attempting shaper or uber elder and even then your srs wont be surviving much longer and you've got plenty of physical melee damage on them. Speed.

Try the new amulet with minion instability. If you like the mechanics, keep it. If not the amulet is 2-3 chaos its not a big deal. You basically have much stronger spirits that explode for aoe damage after about 4-5 seconds. The minion speed gem also helps alot with this as your minions will almost always be surrounding enemies when they go off.

Id get rid of the armor nodes if you only have 2k armor. Not worth investing into. Get more life or jewel sockets and replace some of the jewels you have with more abyss jewels. Keep juggernaught, get rid of soul of steel. +4 points. Also you have a point of dexterity just sitting around by the other cluster of duration meaning you can either fill that out [I wouldnt if your going to get the new amulet, +5 points] or regret that as well.

Thats all i got for now.

I laready played 2 builds from him and always reached endgame and Uelder

Thanks for the input.

I have tried minion speed - I have an amulet and ring with a total of 58% minion movespeed that I used before ventor's and quant amu and while the minions are super fast, the problem is they take too long to pop rares, even with fortify (40k vs 32k with minion speed gem).

I am considering getting rid of soul of steel, although it's an amazing defensive cluster and I'm already struggling to survive legions in yellow maps.

I will try the amulet with minion instability and see how it goes. I guess with this strategy I could drop all duration nodes and some life so I could get +2 sockets. Gonna report back on that

heartbound loop


cwdt-skeleton mage-gmp-minion damage
cwdt-zombie-phantasm-multistrike
cwdt-spectre-offering-desecrate

I might as well do that. My build is meme worthy anyway.

Yeah I'm gonna leave this char to be a chill t2 farmer

I've read some of his thread, he says that even with his 5mil (which isn't mapping dps btw), srs doesn't get all legion mobs.
