Cheap, Tanky, DPSy: Summon Raging Spirit [not updated for 1.3+]

Hello everybody participating in this thread. Me like many others have decided to give this build a try!

I'm very pleased with how the build turned out, having played it now for 1 week from lvl 65 to almost lvl 90 in Rampage, I'm starting to think about doing Atziri for the first time. I would like some help from anyone that have done Atziri using this build, or if you got any pointers for me that could help with the fight!

My current build at lvl 89:


My current gear:


My current stats:


I'm working on rolling good flasks at the moment, Hp, Topaz and Amethyst.

I am very much scared of the trio fight with no armor. Would it be a possibility to swap out cwdt + immortal call instead of arc totem?

Also, is there any changes I should make in the passive tree to better succeed in the fights?

Thanks!

JIDAH: Use a staff or an other weapon to house your SRS. It should be at least 5L and have atleast +1 gems or ideally +2 fire. Giving up staff for weapon/shield isn't worth it with SRS.

GsNaits: be sure to ready my atziri tips section. The key for trio is just killing them fast, not standing in chaos clouds, and using bleed removal flasks asap. If you have trouble, get something with 20 dex (this will save you 1 pt in tree) and unspec inner force (3) pts and invest in double curse.

Hi all, really like SRS and want to make build with it, but as i see this versions have very few phys def. So i decided to make it more defensive and starting with marauder (personal preferences). Asking for ur advices and what problems can i encounter, cuz i didnt play this build before. Auras i think will be grace, clarity and hatred (or haste?), also dunno about EB, can i sustain without it and go hybrid? Beyond league. Here what ive come.

Gonna Post my whole setup the next days, but today I defeated Atziri for the first time. The First trys I died at Trio, but after I switched my Gloves for CWDT I had little problems. (Hatred+Generosity in Gloves, for this fight Hatred into Alpha)

Ok an update on how it went in my first Atziri run!

I didn't use any curses in the entire run. Mostly because I forgot when it got too hectic in some situations with remembering what flask to use at what time, when to use Vaal Haste and Vaal Discipline etc.

That being said I died one time in the entire run, and that was on the trio fight. The only reason was because I forgot to use Vaal Discipline.

On the Atziri fight, I did not use melee splash at all. During the healing phase, the trash mobs won't be able to reach Atziri in time, even without splash.

I used Vaal Haste during the first split phase, but for the others I realized using Vaal Haste is not even needed. They die quickly enough without it if you just use a flesh offering right before they spawn.

Lastly I would like to thank the OP for making this guide, making my dream of killing Atziri becoming reality. This map looked so frightening to me when it first came out, and though I would never be able to do it! Also thanks to everyone who have participated in the thread and coming with suggestions. All your help are much appreciated!

Cool loots from the kill:

I know that the best option would be to use a 5/6 link staff with + skills on it but i tough about trying to use a prism guardian to add 2 more aura could also be a decent option, your tough? In the end i would be using haste,hatred,clarity,wrath and anger i guess..not sure how effective it would be, also maybe would fit dicipline in it if possible and would a midnight bargain also do a good job?

what does SRS community think about ?

atm i use this, but unholy might so tempting )

Guys I have a question - is it possible to build srs shadow build ?

It is possible as any build but it would be very inefficient because of the starting zone of the skill tree, its very far away of all the most important nodes and the starting ones arent fit for a summoner. Our best bet really is Scion and Witch.

Just one short question:

Why do you alterate -> regal your Staffs and not alterate -> augment for the +1/2 gemlevel (if possible)?

Sry for this dumb question but atm i am struggling with poe`s afix/prefix and one suffix on a magic item system.
