Witch - [3.12] Radiating Carrion Golems. 90% resistances + 10-20 Mil DPS - Forum

I have been having a rough time with this build. Just hit endgame and have followed the PoB and guide as close as I can. The problem lies that almost all the gear in this build has become outrageously expensive. Early maps have been a pain in the ass because of resistances being to low. I need to get the right amount of STR and DEX which is also a problem. I'm attempting to sell all my league starter gear from my first character which can net me around 400-500 chaos. But still this has been extremely rough. Any advice outside the guide would be appreciated. How did you get over the hump when you hit maps?

Had 3 die even when im using 21/20 carrion golem. Thanks for help in advance! Take out Primordial Might and replace with Eminence for the Sirus fight if you have minion survivability issues. Your golems getting fixated on Sirus and going out of range of your auras is what's killing them. I've had golems die during Sirus when I was using Might. Did not have a single golem death after I switched to using Eminence. Since I play with animate guardian (21/23), my minions never die. I would use it instead of maim. It's a crazy boost.

So I played around with the skill tree a bit. I realize the only reason you needed zombies and specters was to increase the damage of the golem but the cap was 10. Instead of getting the extra zombies and specters from the tree I used empower gems. And I saved a few skill points with Thread of hope. I went for the minion life and phys dmg reduction nodes and got an extra jewel socket to add in fortress jewel. Over all my minions stopped dying and my character had 500 more es regen. I'm not sure how the damage is because I'm a POB noob but Sirus 8 was still a joke for this build.	Posted by Turbo32#5327 on Oct 6, 2020, 9:12:53 AM Quote this Post
I'm just starting out with this build, level 31 and already have the golem traits. What I don't understand is where does all the STR come from to use a Clayshaper?	Posted by thamzeo#5324 on Oct 6, 2020, 12:38:22 PM Quote this Post

Practical application, +30 str node on right side of tree, gear.	Posted by foojin#2576 on Oct 6, 2020, 12:47:32 PM Quote this Post

You can look at my gear, it is more on the budget side and carried me to T16. The Anima Stone and Cluster Jewels are rather new acquisitions and werent needed for T16. You will still get oneshot from time to time but still not enough to prevent leveling, which happened when I played a budget life version and was stuck at level 89.

Looking to switch from spectres to this. How much gear do I need to make that switch? Got a 6l shavronnes and all of the primordial jewels already.	Posted by klistier#7318 on Oct 6, 2020, 2:41:29 PM Quote this Post
