How to play minions? early game!!!!!!

I dont want no advices on endgame with endgame gear.


How do you play minions in act1 and act2? every rare takes 30sec to kill.. boss? well thats 5min task.

Am i suppose to have 10 minions? because i only have 2skelly warriors and 3 arsonists.

I try using spells in addition and unearth and that just not even remotely good.

get a rattling sceptre

GGG hates minions, and I suspect by the time we hit full release they will remove them from the game. Now for early game minions you just use Essence Drain + Contagion until you get more spirit, and many more minion nodes on the tree. By the time you hit endgame minions will be slightly decent, if you want to go beyond that follow specific guides that only work if you follow them to the letter.

Welcome to POE 2, enjoy your stay.

You have ZERO knowledge about minions. let me tell you, without rattling scepter i would only have 3 minions.

Early game don't play what you want. The game is designed to make you use 'starter/leveling' builds then respec to what you actually want to play.

Forget minions until later, Essence Drain/Contagen until act 2-3 at least.

Monk? Forget martial arts, spam Glacial Cascade until later and respec.

Or play as a bow user until you can respec on any class that can use one.

You can get by with a 'fun' build for mobbing slowly, but the bosses just destroy you with one-shots eventually since the fight takes forever unless you meta.

you need to use snipers and use ur gas arrow command. then u need to use like flame wall or someting to ignite and boom big dmg.
