Hi I have a quick question, I am playing this build and I like it btw. Am I supposed to be auto attacking? With all of the skills I'm using it leaves no room for it on my bars.

Also, do the SRS retroactively get flesh offering buff if the buff is on me? Or do I have to recast it every time I summon more new ones?

If you look here, you can see how I set up my buttons: Atlas

Should not be Auto-Attacking, and aside from re-applying auras after death, those can be shuffled back as well. You can interchange the Vaal skills as needed.

Obviously what those keybind end up being/how they're laid out depends on how you like it. I've always liked LMB being Shield Charge and RMB being SRS.

As for Flesh Offering, you know I'm not 100% on it. I believe it does apply as a blanket to any minions present. As long as you're moving along, casting it on what you just killed and have a nice rolling wave of SRS for mapping it should be just fine.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the insight. I was using the Vaal Lightning Trap for a while but honestly I like Vaal Clarity a lot more. I'm still working on my flesh offering uptime but I'm having a lot of fun mapping so far and haven't ran into any major problems other than dying when I get too cocky Shield Charging into packs. Normal Elder was a breeze and I'm looking forward to taking this build to the end game.

hey :) quick question:

why take the tree nodes "Puppet Master" and "Herd the Flock"? (both top left)

why do they need more life/ele res? I do not notice them dying while playing

thx b4hand for the answer

Hi guys,

Returning player and found that my 2 IIQ gems were suddenly worth something :P

Sold them and bought the following gears, enjoying mapping (up to T6-9) right now...

Would be grateful for any advice on how to improve the build - I was able to open Apex of Sacrifice (to fight Atziri), but I wasn't able to kill it

Wanted to ask ...

Continued playing my witch for a bit - I started some red maps and when I was fighting the bosses I usually end up more than 2 times xD

I'm not sure how I could improve so I won't die to redmap bosses that much. Though I did chisel & vaal those red maps...

I feel like I reached a bottleneck with my SRS witch... guess I'll keep playing some more red maps and pay attention to map mods more xD

Any advice on my character (profile made public) would be much appreciated!

Initially these were taken to help keep the SRS alive until you got Empower 4. Its also great for the leveling process, especially if you use Zombies or something as meat shields. As the SRS approach Level 26, they'll each have like 10k+ health, and its not needed anymore, you can drop these two nodes for jewel slot, more life, etc.

However, post-ascendecy revamp, it seems like the SRS are beefy enough to drop those passives after getting Empower 4, no +1 Belly needed.

I'm even currently experimenting with dropping one of the duration nodes, too, since that was also buffed.

What is a decent alternative armor for srs? I only play HC and currently am still using Tabula at level 80 LOL.

hey, first of all thx for the guide!

im using the covenant right now, i tryed belly but to me it feels better with covenant since i can spec much more life/jewel sockets with it. any opinion on it? (maybe some1 could spectate my characters and give an opinion to my approach of the tree? :D)

also why is empower3/4 better than ruthless? because the srs minions are tankier? dmg wise PoB tells me ruthless is much stronger. (atleast w/o a +1 chest)


thx! :)

I haven't played this build since Harb league but did do Uber Elder with my standard character.

My suggestion:
3 life flasks + 1 onslaught flask
Use Kaom's Roots (ideally with regen on bit enchant).

I do plan to play this build in 3.3 but I also believe that The Covenant is the BIS out of non +1 chests especially with the nerf to MoM and addition to Abyss jewels.

Thanks ill give this a try and see how i go. Never thought of using covenant but it could be a good option

*EDITED* I can confirm that The Covenant is a much better chest to use. It has allowed me to get rid of all my mana nodes and spec into a few more jewel's and life regen, currently im sitting on 600 life regen per second so my survivability is ridiculous also and i have not sacrificed any damage.
I can constantly keep up 20 minions anywhere without hassle.

As someone said above as well, I am finding that recklessness is also better than empower 4.

I am currently changing several things but i dropped uber elder after changing chest and a few other slight moderations... I am going to be changing a couple of other things to but ill keep updated!

Hey guys,

I started league with this build and had not much time to play, so I want to finish league achievements now. My problem is, I die a lot. I don't have much life, my SRS deal less damage and I'm a bit out of knowledge, what I can do to improve.
First thing I have in mind: I don't have a 6-Link belly yet. I have a 5-Link one in stash, but with wrong socket colours. I try to farm for some Ex, to buy a 6-L with right sockets. Can the lack of the belly be the reason for all?

My current equipment:


I also followed the tree as the guid suggests. Profile is set to public, if anyone wants to take a look.

Anyone has some quick tips or obvious changes for me? :) Thanks a lot!
