Stress-Free PoE! ANIMATED POISON (AW): No Required Items! 1-Button Play! SSF League Start-End! 3.12

OK Guys...You are all obviously well used to this kind of build. I am a 67 year old not too healthy guy who is trying something like this for the first time. Could use a little help...as in I do not even know what weapon I need. Sorry do not get pissed off with me but I will get there. Just need the odd bit of assistance to get going.

Hi, I would say that this build is quite experimental. If you want to play one of Wrecker's stress-free builds, I would recommend his zombie build (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2936471/page/1) He's currently in the process of his write up which generally will include the help you are asking for.

Hi Wrecker, I'm back to mess around with your builds again. Leveling with your tree currently but might swap to CI for fun.

Really enjoying this build. Thank you Wrecker_of_Days.

I agree with RohenDar self casting Bladefall feels much better. Plus having space for flame dash is nice.

I took the opportunity to add convocation to the CWDT+Desecrate+Spirit Offering.

My minions were falling behind too often, and this catches them right up if I get into trouble. Probably the most effective "Oh S**T" trigger I've had in a long time.

So the only things I'm thinking about are how many animated weapons are following me, and if I want to use Bladefall to hurry this fight up.

You made a good build, exactly what I was looking for.
Great feedback Kuzare!

That's all something good to dwell on. Convocation would be good for this build as each minion doesn't do great damage on it's own, but they do together.

Thanks for your kindness! I'm glad the build suits what you like. Keep the feedback coming if you're up for it.

Thanks again.

Hey smokeycat!

Ask anything you like. If someone is a prick to you I'll go after them :). With minions, you can use any weapon you like. Eventually, you'll want a Convoking Wand because they give minion bonuses. But until then, you can literally use any weapon you like as we only care about the colour sockets. Minions get most of their damage from gems and the tree. Minion mods start rolling LATER in the game and are basically just bonuses to have, not required at all.

Ask anything you like anytime!

Hey snirky2!

Always nice to see you! Good luck with CI! It'd be a big tree change but it'd be tons of fun to try too! Good luck! Thanks for saying hey.

I'm intrigued. Hit sirus or red maps yet? I kerfluffled my BF SSF build and have a bunch of 6Ls and gear to throw around now.
(I legitimately didn't read the nerfs and BF seems very poor this league with the crit redux)

I've been meaning to put a PoB together to show what I've been doing.

The most difficult part of this build is the time I spend re-casting AW, otherwise it's just unbelievable. Been a while since I played something which requires I stand in the middle of the enemy to get shit done.

I apologize for bragging here, but there is nothing as satisfying as finding a Tabula Rasa on your first character in a new league. =D Everything melts, and I don't even have the 3rd curse, Despair, up and running yet.

Cool Astroknight! Let me know if you go for the build. This build just gets stronger and stronger as stacking poison goes a long way on enemies the more health they have.

I've barely started league, I'm not even out of campaign yet :). Thanks for the note!
