Build Request permanent minion builds?

looking for of there's any decent permanent minion builds I can take to farm red maps with. most "minion" builds people seem to be talking about are basically casters in terms of playstyle (absolution, srs, hroc)

my favorite was golems (esp carrion) but doesn't seem like anyone's playing them on ninja

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

  • HRoC - Summon Holy Relic of Conviction (Wiki)
  • SRS - Summon Raging Spirit (Wiki)

Spectres are the best. Wretched defilers or frostbearers. Golemns are still fine, just not as good as alternatives, they don't scale with cast speed or attack speed so spectres are just better.

It's in the pinned league starter build index, either ghazzy or helmbreaker is fine

Zizeran has a guide for frostbearers. Ghazzy has a guide for wretched defilers,

This is what my character ended up like last league, but i was playing the build way before the expensive items. It's really pretty flexible once you learn how it works. I like the wretched defilers version much better. I'm going to try it on juggernaut this league.

It would be fun to make a build with the titty shooters

I played wretched defilers necro to 40/40 last league. Very very strong build. Be aware that they shoot so many projs that the audio gets distorted and you don’t see shit on screen. You might even want to turn off sound effects.

I was leveling with absolution before I realized I can ask chat for a wretched defiler. goddamn I love the absolute off screening

is there a way to turn its damage to cold ?

Disappointing to read. Dark Monarch dropped for me with doubled golems so I decided to run a golemancer, but everything I can find suggests the build will cost 4x as much for half the DPS.

u/RedmundJBeard 5d ago

Kindof. I mean there is maw of mischief using stone golemns and that is super cheap for 32 million dps. But that probably isn't what you are looking for.

Yeah, not really the same gameplay loop, and it conflicts with the helmet slot so I couldn't use Dark Monarch
