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

Kay, do you have any advice on how to transition to SRS with respect to gear? What to upgrade to first, for those of us working up the budget and/or crafting. Saving up until you have all the gear and switching everything at once works, but it takes too long. I think most of us would like to enjoy some of the advantages as we go along. Me for example, I 6L SRS in a Tabula and swapped the skeletons for some curses - I am working with that now without any other serious changes. It is better than the starter and I can start low red maps but it will be tough.

So, Helm, weapon, shield, armor, uniques, accessories - what priority order would you put those in, with the skill gems interaction in mind? For example, maybe we should go for a +2 helm after the entire skill setup is up and running.

The unique boots and gloves don't seem expensive so that's easy. Although rings can get really expensive if you leave all the resists and stats to them!

If you have any advice for moving gradually from the starter to SRS, or any generic advice for all builds, I think that would be helpful for a lot of players and you can turn it into an upgrade path section in your guide if you want to.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong, but i'm playing the tanky spider build and it feels super squish. I feel like i'm getting 1 shot too often and my minions are dying in big packs of monsters.

Quick follow-up question: #19 is "minions penetrate 8% of cursed enemies' elemental resistances"
What exactly does the "cursed" part mean? do my minions automatically apply that or do I have to do that myself manually. Sorry if this is a dumb question, im still fairly new.

And bonus question: Why do we use frostblink during lvling, but swap to Flame Dash when we start mapping? And is it possible to also use flame dash during lvling?

You need to cast a curse or have a curse aura (or another minion can cast it too!). Basically the enemy needs to have a curse on it (the curse symbol floating around it). :)

I try to avoid changing gems when levelling up. Sometimes people don't have enough currency. But you can change to Flame Dash if you like it.

Thanks again for the answer. If i follow your leveling/season starter build. does that contain a curse ability? or do i have to add one myself.

The League Starter uses Ele-Weakness for most Flexibility.

If you transfer to SRS you keep Ele-Weakness

If you transfer to Skelemages with Fleshcrafter you don't use Ele-Weakness!

Kay, for the small cluster which of your 3 have priority?

- Enduring Composure ~18c
- Surging Vitality ~1c
- Second Skin ~1c

So I assume its Enuring Compsure first then the other 2.

As i see they deleted +1 to all int gems from amulet, right? What we should looking now on amulet? Was thinking about this new ashes of the stars is it a good choice?

So far I have made a very rough version of the SRS build to see how it feels. From the starter build, I have changed the gloves, boots, and weapon (but not + to gems) to the SRS ones as well as the skill setup, except for the guardian.

This means that I am using just a plain tabula, no + minions helm, no life on block shield, no annoint, no cluster jewels, just the starter build tree without even the last few shield nodes (I do have 6 unspecced points). And of course half the gems aren't even leveled up yet.

Even in this state, it feels pretty powerful. T10 is pretty easy, maybe easier than before and I could sure push into red maps but I don't want to risk the xp right now as I have nothing on survivability other than the starter build's more life nodes. I will soon spec properly into SRS and never look back - until I can go spiders, which is why I don't want to go all out spending yet.

All I can say is that I have played SRS ages ago but it didn't feel as good, or as powerful.

Only thing I would chance is the movement speed. Once the build is more complete, I will look into swapping Ullr for rare boots and see if I can get more mana regen for the same QoL and more speed. I still haven't tried proper long boss fights though so I will do that first. I don't really like the lab enchant but maybe I will go for it if Ullr are worth it for me.

That's my feedback in progress, keep up the good work!

Hey can anybody explain me exactly how freshcrafter works?, actually my minions have 47% chaos resist, so the are converting 94% of the life in es?, does that mean my mininons are lowlife?,also i cant find any way no know the actual stats of my animate guardian , pob tooltip says 98k aprox and inside the game 100k+, should I not use grave intententions?, i have already done sirus, uber elder and invites without my ag dying with almost trash gear

im about to start a minion build and i just wanted to say that when i do so once i league, i always come here. your minion compendium at this point, grows more amazing every league. thank you for the work you put into this.

Hi all,

I have a question regarding alternate quality gems like
* vitality(divergent)
* clarity (anomalous)
* discipline(anomalous)

Do they affect our minions? I was planning to buy the new amulet Ashes of the Stars but I'm not sure if they work on minions. The wording from the gem "you and nearby allies deals/have X increased damage when Y" confuses me
