Over flame sentinels? I did try tentacle miscreations which work great but flame sentinels are still my favorite. I'll look for the righteous fire ones.


The advantage they have over flame sentinels is the fact they kill mobs just by being around. My issue with most spectres is the fact the AI is lazy and likes standing around doing nothing a lot of times. The disadvantage is the fact they lose out on the range. I use sentinels sometimes too but i dislike the fact they are quite big and they feel kinda slow :P

Oh and, it is "Unrighteous Fire" not Righteous, it doesn't actually burn the Burned Miscreation :)

I googled and it seems someone already mentioned it earlier: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/77161


I just read that unrighteous fire doesn't stack so one of them is as good as three or four. They do do great damage. I still prefer having some flame sentinels or tentacle miscreations though because ranged damage is highly useful on some maps, and sometimes the burned would just run around ignoring the fight unless I got right in the middle of it and I never want to do that.

My preferred spectre setup now is 1 burned, 2 flame or 2 tentacle. Works great.

You can definitely do this build as a Templar. Hell, I did it as a Shadow. It's probably easier as a Templar than a Shadow even, because there's a Minion cluster closer to the Templar starting point, so most Necromancer Witches head in that direction anyway.

See my build.

Running Maps.


Nice Build! I´m using it and i´m on lvl 61 now.
I always take the flame sentinels as spectres.

thx for helping me :)

Which spectres have you taken in the last videostream? named "level 75 Summoner Witch - Farming Docs" and why does all your enemys burn??


Tentacle Miscreation - Lunaris - level 2-3 - Fire, try them out with the spectre set gems on the main page.

"
And which spectres do you think are the best for the strait dense maps like dungeons?
I often have problems there or it takes along time to clean the map.


I'v tried a method that i have created called "dragging", it can be dangerous but since i dont run EB anymore its fine.

Spectres:
Burning Miscreations - Lunaris - Fire - Casts Unrighteous Fire

Benefits:
They cast Unrighteous Fire and are melee mobs.

So now lets talk about dragging:

Objective: Get to the other side of the room.

What happens when i achieve this:
As Burning Miscreations are melee mobs they will follow you closer compared to range mobs, which in turn when you run to the other side of the room(running through mobs) they will follow you and cast unrighteous Fire killing most mobs in <2 seconds. Another reason i try to get behind the enemy mob is that something(alot of the time) your spectres will get caught in the room beforehand so what this does is that when your spectre gets to far away from you it will teleport next to you.


Anyone reading this: For like the past 5 levels i'v been using EB, but have turned it off, died way too many times than i should have, I need to wait and get more health nodes.


Since i have the merciless flame sentinels and burning miscreations everthing in merciless and farming getting easier :) My three flame sentinels killed piety in 20seconds without lost one. They have much more power and hp as in cruel.

And farming with burning miscreations and your dragging methode makes a lot of fun!

Only one thing is strange. It seems that the burning miscreations need to fight a little bit til the rightous fire is function properly after changing instances. So often one burning miscreation dies before they have their red rectangle.

Do you have the same problem and a solution for this?

Edit: Which support gem do you use with burning miscr. instead of gmp?
Antiquities from the early days of Path of Exile

Added Chaos Damage! Imagine them frying with both Fire AND Chaos Damage. Couple that with Elemental Weakness and Vulnerability (which increases damage from DAMAGE OVER TIME EFFECTS), and you have a literal buzzsaw of death.

The only issue I run into is the Miscreations die a bit faster than I'd like them too...where as I've had Flame Sentinels last an entire act when I've played through.
