Very good clear speed
Very cheap
Relatively safe, so HC viable
Insane movement speed
Chaos damage immunity
No reflect problems

Low armor
Good positioning awareness required
Quite some passive points to change for Chaos Inoculation transition

The build is based on Caos Inoculation, which means we drop our life to 1 for extra energy shield, which at high levels is gonna give us a massive es pool. The main defence for the squishy witch is the meat shields (zombies), and with haste and the Mistress of Sacrifice Ascendancy + Flesh Offering kiting packs and bosses should be really easy.
Last but not least we link Cast when Damage Taken with either Enfeeble or Immortal Call + Increased Duration, for some extra safety (recommended for HC)

Our main damage source are the Raging Spirits, zombies help, but the Raging Spirits do most of our damage. If 6-linked in a +2/3 to level of fire gems staff their damage output is insane, killing bosses in a few second and mobs almost instantly

Reverberation Rod Spiraled Wand. The best wand for SRS until u can affort a +2 to level of socketed Fire Gems staff. It gives you +1 to level of Fire Gems and lvl 1 spell echo. Get 3 links (2 blue and 1 red) and place there SRS -> Minion Damage -> Melee Splash. (for bosses swap Melee Splash for Melee Physical damage for a nice DPS boost).

Bones of Ullr Silk Slippers. Some good boots, they give us +1 number of zombies, and some extra meat shield is always good, life mana energy shield and some movement speed.

Matua Tupuna Tarnished Spirit Shield. Nice shield to pair with our Reverberation Rod, it gives 10% us increased effect of auras on both us and our minions and +2 to level of socketed minion gems. Get a 3 link (2 blue and 1 red once again) and place there Raise Zombie-> Minion Life -> Fortify. Until you can equip Fortify just place there whatever you want, they will tank everythink for you anyways.

Get a Dex based amulet to be able to equip Desecrate, and Haste later on.
And get a Str belt for Melee splash requirements.

Just keep in mind that u are running until merciless with 3 uniques that give no resistances, so consider crafting yourself some good rings with high resistances (really easy with essences).

Kill/kill/kill (save oak on normal if you feel too squishy)

Once you get to Dried Lake Merciless you should consider to start getting some endgame gear before going into maps.

The first and most important item you are gonna need is a +2 to level of socketed fire gems staff with 4+ links for a significant damage output boost. look for a staff with increased cast speed, you are gonna greatly benefit from it.

Second item you are gonna need is a four link helmet with +2 to level of socketed minion gems for your zombies and stone golem.

Now you can already start clearing low tier maps easly. just remember before switching to Chaos Inoculation (don't forget to get Zealot's Oath!!!) to get some new items with some extra Energy Shield.

I'd recommend buying Rainbowstride Conjurer Boots but if u can't afford them just get some high res boots and craft some extra ES on them.

No uniques are needed for this build to crash content; the only unique i feel like to recommend are the Rainbowstride Conjurer Boots. However you are gonna need a +2 to level of socketed minions gems 4-linked Helmet and a +3 to level of socketed fire gems 6-linked staff (+2 instead of +3 is still gonna work pefectly fine but u might have to consider swapping empower for another gem.)



For the other pieces there are a lot of rares that fit this build very well, just make sure to cap the resistances then get ES as much as possible. And cast speed, cast speed is always good. (Don't forget to craft increased minion damage on gloves!!! is a nice free dps boost).

P.S. Strenght Belt and Dexterity amulet are still needed, you dont want to waste some precious talent points on stats for gem requirements.

Your main damage source, SRS, the links are in order of importance, so if u cannot afford a 6 link , or a 5 link just put the first 4 gems.

Summon Ragin Spirit->Spell Echo->Melee Splash->Minion Damage->Melee Physical Damage->Empower

remeber to swap Melee Splash with Multistrike for bosses (Added Fire Damage or Added Chaos Damage are still good, but less effective against bosses, you can use them against low resistances bosses).
It is important to get your SRS gem to 20% quality! big damage boost.

And the main defence are the meat shields so link

Raise Zombie->Summon Stone Golem->Minion Life->Fortify

in your +2 to level of socketed minion gems helmet.

You are gonna need at least a 4-linked Chest for

Cast when Damage Taken->Enfeeble/Immortal Call->increased duration->Vaal Haste

Pick either Enfeeble or Immortal Call, whatever you prefere, both are good.
if u can afford 5 or 6 links get a Vaal Clarity if u feel like u can run oom or Vaal Discipline for extra ES and one more Vaal Haste (really really good).Consider also Vaal Summon Skeleton against boosses with weak aoe damage.

If you dont have 6 link place there

Flesh Offering (add Faster Casting if u have 4 link).

Now the last gems you are gonna need to link are

Haste->Clarity->Discipline->Enlighten

place them on boots or gauntlets

the last gems that need to be linked are

Hatred->Generosity

for a nice dps boost for your minions.

You will still need a few gems

Flame Dash (our movement Ability)
Desecrate

and if you have a 6 linked chest (you are gonna need a ring with a socket)

Flesh Offering

this 3 abilities dont need any support gems (faster casting can be good, but cast speed really is not needed)
