👻3.20👻 Kay's Summoner💥SRS Bomber💀Poison SRS💀Melee SRS🕷️Spiders💀Skeleton Mages

Big rework of the 3.15 build! It has about double the DPS and more survivability. Gearing should be easier too!
I added squire to the POB as well (1M DPS -> 3.6M DPS)



Poison Spiders Occultist is an endgame build for Path of Exile 3.16 Scourge League! It uses Arakaali’s Spiders and Profane Bloom for fast map-clearing, as well as poison stacking for bossing. Mandatory Unique: Arakaali's Fang, Speaker's Wreath, Writhing Jar. The guide has: showcase (mino, maven), overview of key features, passives, ascendancy and pantheon and gear, gems and links.

Hello everyone. I've been in an hours long discussion with someone who's running Kay's skelly mages build, theorycrafting further improvements towards it. I've come up with a different variation.

https://pastebin.com/qds4y4pb

Modifications made:
- Replaced Maw of Mischief with a god-tier helmet (+2 to socketed gems, hypothermia, minion damage, +1 skeletons)
- Moved the skeletons to the helmet and the auras to the body armor
- Used the remaining two slots on the body armor to add Animated Guardian and Minion Life, AG has Kingmaker
- Replaced amulet with something similar, but has +1 skeleton cap
- Replaced boots with Alberon's Warpath

The resulting build has 5500 life (from 6k), 49m max DPS (from 32m), and the res isn't capped (could probably be fixed using empty suffixes on helmet and further optimizations in other gear).

I'm not a good theorycrafter. I simply replaced a couple items with no thought or care as to what the price of the build is going to be, plus I may have missed some calcs that could potentially be fluffing up the DPS values. I'd greatly appreciate some advice for improvements to this build if possible.


I don't minmax my builds actually, but I have lots of interesting gear. The best mods for you helmet are like this. Probably want to get elevated hypo or min damage. Also 4% crit is possible. And get better enchant :P

Damn. By simply going back to your original mage PoB, using that helmet and doing nothing else to the build, it's putting out far more DPS than the one I came up with. 56m vs my 49m.

Honestly I appreciate that you made this without minmaxing. I had originally planned on making a skelly warrior build based on iLL3aT's cold skeletons guide, but it can only reach 26m DPS while already using perfect items. Your skelly mages can hit 32m or so, but the gear isn't minmaxed and there's still room for improvement with better gear.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

MFers found strength in their Afflictions. They became reliant on them. I am not so foolish.
how do you get enough strength to use Pride and DreadBanner @ lvl 20?

Still getting through Yellow Maps, so I don't have the currency to upgrade yet. Spiders or Skelly Mages for bossing? Which is easier to gear up with? and which can be pushed to higher DPS?

Should I wait for a different guide?

You need either:
1. Socket in the same socket number(and same links) to be sure that spectres stay alive after you back to hideout.
2. Open portals to map in hideout, so it won't reset after you leave and you can desecrate.

Pale Angels would definably be nice.

Thanks. Don't think i'll reach the squire but nice addition. But you aren't using the new gloves...can they be included in the build or big dps drop ?

Black Scythe Arbalist would be a great addition. Thanks.
Regarding a previous post, are we saying that the pob, gear, setup, etc from Kays skele mage video is 32mn dps?
