Bombarding Minions Witch Infernalist End Game Build Guide

can you share your skeletal sniper gem sockets? having issues with breach clear unfortunately
IGN itsYOLO
I got pretty far with this build, currently at level 95:
- 2817hp (1408 actually because of reservation)
- 8398es
- 76% elemental resists, 75% chaos
- +10 to all minion skills from gear
- 163% rarity
- using 9 arsonists, 1 cleric, 1 storm mage, 2 warriors
- all minions at 83% elemental resists
- Apart from weapon, every piece of my gear provides around 160 life on average

I do clear regular maps pretty easily, not so fast but very safe without even looking out for dangerous mods.

However, I was not able to complete the last wave of the simulacrum, and I don't know what could be improved without spending like 50+ divine to get more damage.

It seems that getting more tanky would just delay my death a little bit, I would need a ton more damage before attempting a simulacrum again because I got completely overwhelmed in the last wave and got cornered.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is Simulacrum really this hard?

Simu is the most difficult content in the game atm, but Arsonists is the best minion to do it with at a limited budget.
You can look at my latest video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIZ1AKHv5cE&lc=UgwrP65jSLWqkTIQzld4AaABAg as an example.

The most important thing is more damage so you need to use trenchtimbre +3 and damage supports. You can do simu +4 with less than 20div if you have budgeted your items correctly.
Your 2 warriors are from the sceptre right ?
What is your opinion on a Prism of Belief Jewel that gives +3 Level to Raging Spirits? PoB says it will increase DPS by maybe 20%?

Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a try! Should I go purely arsonists or throw some Storm mages and Clerics in the mix?

+3 Raging spirits does not increase dps over a +3 Arsonist, what are you comparing it with and at what budget?

1 Cleric and 1-2 storm mages depending on your spirit and amount of arsonists.

I think I know what I did wrong. I need to scale the skeletal arsonists by x3 due to scattershot right?

Edit: Looks like +3 Raging spirts still increases DPS, but not as much as a +3 Arsonist, which I can't afford yet.
