[3.6 Video Guide] Beginner's Guide SRS Baron Life [HC/SC/Atziri/Uber Izaro/Shaper Viable]

hi, ghazzy. playing this build atm. was wondering if there is anything you can recommend upgrading. ive got 240C and 1ex just sitting in bank. My goal is to take down shaper. thx :)

Hi,

I'm new to this game (lvl 81 at the moment) and followed this guide as much as I could.

Still remind one question for me.

I'm considering buying a 2 hand staff +1/2 with blood magic crafter in it.

However I'm using commander of darkness and hatred as the guide say so.

I also built as much life as I could.

I'm very much wondering why take so much life with hatred who will cut in half my life pool.

Actually, I sit at 4000 HP and I don't think one second that I could survive with only 2000 hp.

How do you guys make it to combine hatred and blood magic ?

Don't link hatred with blood magic. That is causing the problem I guess.

Hi,

Thanks for this amazing build, I'm playing this in bestiary as my first ever witch and I really enjoy it.
I checked the guide multiple times and sorry if I missed something but could you give some tips regarding lab enchantments?

Thanks

Hey,

Awesome to hear bro!
Glove enchant: "...of the grave" is very helpful, outside of that it's literally w/e.
Helmet: SRS dmg or chance to summon an extra SRS on cast.
Boots: Any regen enchant

@Ghazzy: Many thanks for the helpful answer. I was wondering if pob is a good tool to check summoner dmg stats for example? I heavily use pob but when I play around the 6link gems and swap Elemental damage with attacks with Empower 3 it reports less dmg with empower. Do I mess up something or simply the tool is not ok for summoner builds?

I assumed that since blood magic is crafted in the weapon,every gems in the build would be somehow linked to it. Am I wrong ? I didnt buy yet the weapon so I can't test it. I am just trying to understand how things work ;)

If blood magic will be crafted on the weapon it will only affect the gems socketed in the weapon.

Hi Ghazzy I'm currently playing through your guide on 3.2 on Xbox. I'm wondering a couple of things. How do we run hatred and haste when both reserve 50% mana? That would mean we're unable to cast anything? Also you have more gems listed than the max 24 slots excluding getting an extra slot on the ring? Also with Xbox having limited slots for skills this league due to the nets what skill would you rank as least important for the build? I'm fairly new to Poe and appreciate any help you can give.

Hey guys,

Pardon the delayed responses, I've had my birthday + drivers license test + my grandfather dying any day keeping me off my original schedule to go through forum threads, so sorry. I'll try my best to catch up on the missed days!

ello guys

Im haveing some issues understanding EE.

so SRS is dealing physical dmg converting 50% to fire, also im wearing the gloves and useing hatred wich also adds the cold damage to theier attacks, so everytime they hit it will increase the resistens of the mob?

does this mean i have to spam a lightning spell?. feels lika a waste of time.

i was thinking of runing leap slam - faster attacks - fortify - added lightning to sort it? leap slamming quite often for the fortify on bosses anyways.

Hey,

https://youtu.be/CRwgILNUEQs this is why I've made this video to teach people about the generic summoner mechanics :)
GGG are not doing this for the community, so I do my best to have information readily available for you all!

If you didn't watch the video:
Minions are separate enteties and are not affected by nodes/mods/keystones/trees etc etc that doesn't specifically state that they affect minions. So EE doesn't affect them, making only yourself able to proc it. So basically, you hit something once with lightning dmg and you have optimal damage output on the enemies. If you don't the EE never happens ^^
And yes, having added lightning dmg through jewelleries is a nice way to make you proc EE on enemies with your movement abilities as well.

Ghazzy -

If I'm running alongside an aurabot, so I don't have to do auras - what would you do with those points? Any suggestions?

Well, I'd personally keep it for the times where you'll play solo tbh.
If you really wanna remove them, invest towards more jewel slots then :)

^^^^

Only SRS is suppose to be in there to allow us to reserve tons of mana without stopping our possibility of casting :)

Hey,

I do my best!
PoB is great, though WED is one of the best support gems but yes, Empower lvl 3+ is a great addition. Maybe you made some misstake in there, try changing any of the other support gems. The guide includes where the Empower fits for most optimal damage output.

Hey,

With the reduced mana reserved nodes from the tree it's possible :) Though as the guide states, we don't use both until we have a +2 (or +3) 2h weapon with Blood Magic benchcrafted. Till then we just skip the Haste aura and in that case it's generally better to run with a 1H/Victario's Charity using Necromantic Aegis keystone.

Vaal Auras are optional, so is the lvl 1 clarity :)

Thanks bro, appreciate the prompt response and help :)

Hey Ghazzy,

Pretty new to the game so still trying to learn and understand things but I'm kind of confused where to go from here with the build. I have 3 exalts sitting around but I'm not sure what my next upgrade should be for getting more survivability/damage. I can currently do t9 and some t10 maps before I start struggling. I'd appreciate if you could look up my char and give me some advice! Tried a t13 map and basically got one hit by the boss even though I could clear the mobs completely fine.
