Hello, thanks for the well-written guide! I am planning on running my first SSF Minion build, and I was wondering: do you have a recommendation for a new player starting a fresh SSF character, as far as build variations?
I am sort of leaning towards "as many minions as possible" but I want to get the most bang for my buck.
Any thanks again. Any advice for new SSF player would be greatly appreciated!
I've been played SSF spectres necro and carrion golems elementalist this league.
Despite the much more popular spectres necro on POE.ninja, I believe Carrion golemancer is better.
I've tried many spectes and experimenting with them can be fun but getting the +1 weapon, +1 boots is hard and 6L +1 spectres chest very very hard on SSF. Also getting unendying hunger and the juju amulet in SSF can be tricky as well.
Tankinest-The necro has good block from bone offering but the golemancer has good regen and phys reduction from stone/chaos golems
There are plenty golemancer builds/guides in this forum
You can start with zombies, add carnage and host chieftains and then golems as well. Both builds are strong levelers/league starters.
Overall the spectres necro need a lot more specialized gear to get to end game and is not worth it unless you plan to put a LOT of time farming/crafting.
Thanks so much for the reply mittens, I will check out the golemancer suggestion. Realistically I will be playing pretty casually so min/maxxing will probably be more on the min side.
What is the absolutely best spectre for "afk" mapping that is capable to clear screens of enemies? I don't care about about single target dps. I guess solar guards are the best even now.

probably one of: Frost Auto-Scout, Baranite Preacher, or Syndicate Operative
