Path of Exile 2 - Updated Witch INFERNALIST Leveling Build! Infinite Rain of Fire Explosive Minions

[@FunnyFrogs-z5y]

Are you going to have a written guide on Maxroll or Mobalytics. Video guides are kinda hard to follow cause you have to keep repeating parts of the video. If you make a written guide (doesnt even need to go into depth just show your skills and skill tree with suggested armor) it would be a lot easier to follow.

[@satyricon420]

To help you out in the meantime I screenshot the part that shows the tree and skills then I write things down in notes on my phone with the screenshots. A backwoods written guide if you will.

Hey Khraze Gaming i have a fat question for you. So i want to go Demon form, my issue here is that the skill tree favors minions. My question here teh Demon form is it not affected by the stat increases in the skill tree? cause if not makes sense why we are forced to go necro but if it is affected is there a possible way to make the witch into more of a caster vs a necromancer? if so if i respec would i be able to start in another direction in the skill tree vs the main top one which is only for minions?

[@fajnykolega1400]

hi! have you thought about firestorm casted by minion death supported by hourglass? hourglass gives +40% damage but +10sec cooldown. It's hard to check if it can be cast 2nd time or if the +10 cd time breaks the game

[@fetlix]

There's a gem in tier 2 that makes attached minion take 20% of their health as fire damage every sec while igniting aswell as burning eveything around them for their short life-span, hense you can trigger a firestorm every 3 sec as 5 of those flaming skulls takes you up to 86% from zero. and you can have 10 of em up at any time....

Hi bro great vid just one question what do you need for raging spirits to auto explode .

[@regaliaex1338]

Skeleton arsonist. Equipping them gives a skill you can equip that lets you detonate minions that are below a certain health threshold. Just watch past 1:20

[@KrisURG]

I think my threshold is too high I might need to respec thanks for replying

[@KrisURG]

Just a quick question do you have to detonate the raging spirits or do they do do it themselves

[@regaliaex1338]

@@KrisURG you do it with the Skelton arsonist skill, but if you slot minion instability and Infernal Legion support gems on raging spirt they’ll die themselves and still be able to attack. Makes this so much better dps wise

[@alad1834]

Got a question about Cast on ignite. Since flame wall and hellhound can ignite enemies, isn't it better to use Cast on ignite? I don't have the opportunity to check it myself yet, so it would be interesting to know the opinion of those who have access to all the necessary gems.

[@breakthecode4634]

It's only with hits. Meaning you would have to directly hit your enemies to ignite them. No go

So far I have found only two things that bug me in the game, the body blocking stuff is to me a bad take, not being about to roll out of being pinned or surrounded is not good, an then the party scaling seems like it needs a bit of tweaking at least for the act 1 gameplay, I wouldn't say a big tweak but a little bit would be grand.

same doubt here, how the shield works

[@skyguapo79]

You can use a minion sceptre with a shield. The sceptre would be main hand with shield off hand.

[@Scallers813]

You get rid of your wand. Your scepter is your best item.

[@GrizzGrizzGrizz]

@skyguapo79 are you sure thats the best setup? Im using the volitile dead so i can raise corpses with the wand and it does more damage than my SRS, I'd have no DPS without it.

[@GrizzGrizzGrizz]

@Scallers813 my sceptre is only level 6 minions, im in act 2 and can buy level 7 but it wont make my minions much stronger. My wand raises corpses with volitile dead and does most of my DPS. I dont see many high level builds even using a sceptre, which makes me confused as to why they even give it in the tutorial if its not what everybody uses.

[@willlyle8027]

Can you put your builds on Mobalytics?

[@matheusmterra]

I really like this route, but I'm gonna be honest, I'm unsure if it's as good as you make it sound like, and I'm not throwing shade. On to what I was meaning to ask, this looks really good clearing density, what about bosses? How does Firestorm fare against bosses? Do you multi-hit with the storm or is it not that great for bosses? I wanna give this a try but I don't wanna invest into a build that can clear density as well as any but struggled to do single target damage. Thanks a lot if anyone can respond to this, I'm trying to be as respectful as possible but sometimes writing in a second language and the nature of KZbin comments really muddle the nuance of meaning.

[@lonjasprime]

@matheusmterra first off, you can't even loop this anymore (they patched out cast-on skills triggering powerful spells). And yes this melted bosses. I used flame wall for my combo and the skulls just suicided into the boss repeatedly, while my arsonists tossed bombs from afar. From acts 1-3 on cruel none of the bosses took me longer than about 20 seconds (excluding phases changes)

[@matheusmterra]

@ I don't care that you can't loop it on itself, I'm manually casting Flame Walls and Fireballs anyway, besides Firestorm has a 6 second duration and you can only ever have one Firestorm active. So the nerf really only hurts the autoplay builds. Thanks for the info on Firestorm's damage output, it really helps!

[@lonjasprime]

@matheusmterra I'm using both firewall and firestorm now for fun, I have firestorm tied to cast on minion death and so it just rains fire constantly while my skulls explode. I'm using it mainly for the exposure debuff tho.

[@matheusmterra]

@ isn't the doggo better for exposure though?

Cool Concept, but isnt this just giving up tons of damage by sacrificing 2 arsonists for the aura and not scaling your rain of fire through skill tree or damage support gems. It seems like a pretty big dps loss over all for 1% health regen, unless I'm missing something.
