Need help with Poison SRS

aaaah

i bought the wrong one.
BUT: it also has variants with the Envy. Wouldnt that be the same effect?


Just watched a vid today where the dude said "no more united anymore".

Yes the new version of it has Envy but it no longer has the poison chance.
So you'd still need to get to 100% poison chance.

Haven't seen that vid but it's most likely pretty irrelevant.

I have one (severed in sleep) and when i tested it in PoB with 10 stack on avg it gave me just 4,4% more dps for SRS.
And because i didnt feel any differene in maps at all, i though the other Minion Buffs on the wand should compensate that.

DO NOT ever trust PoB when it comes to minion or poison builds.
Mix both and PoB has no clue what to do or how to calculate stuff.

1. You will always have max wither stacks in less than 1 sec.
Adjust PoB accordingly

2. Add United in Dreams for 60% chance to poison.

3. Make sure to set the count to 20 in your SRS setup, forcing PoB to calculate 20 minions

4. Add chance to poison support to your SRS to simulate 100% chance to poison, which you will achieve by using proper jewels but thats not the point here

5. Add a lvl1 temp chains gem to your setup and allocate Whispers of Doom to simulate the AG.

6. If AG adds anything else in terms of dmg to allies, you have to force that too. Like adding cull support to your SRS setup if you were using Kingmaker.
As far as PoB is concerned your AGs gear doesnt exist. Period.

7. Deactivate some auras and activate Envy instead


Do all of that and check your dmg again.
You should be dealing 10-15 million dps vs Pinnacle bosses without even trying.

Now i get it.

It needs to have both and Severed can only have one of them.
Just tested it, my dps jumps from 150k to 220k.

Still terrible low but where gettin there.

@Orbaalknows

PoB doesnt give a damn about the SRS count. 1 or 20, damage stays the same.
When i switch weapons to the Severed, it still gives me +5%.

My Watchers Eye with 21% inc Dot while effected by malevolence also does nothing.

Whispers of Doom on Amulet
Dying breath stats manually included

290k

Erm no.

I just imported your build, did all the things and also checked Feeding Frenzy as well as adding 2 Frenzy charges to your minions in your config, assuming you are running Frenzy Apes spectres.

Total dmg: 10.4 million vs pinnacle bosses


PoB for reference:

I dont get it.

When i import it fresh, ill get to 7 million.
But at least the SRS counter works now.

I just give up for the moment and focus on the Darkness Enthroned Setup.
That will keep me busy for the day and tomorrow i give poB another chance.


Thanks for your help so far

Sounds like you forgot to add temp chains again.
Re-importing the build will delete all gems you did add.

If you did add temp chains, you might have forgotten to enable a 2nd curse by allocating whisper of doom or simply typing "you can add an additional curse" into the custom config box.

If its not that, it might be "chance to poison" support for your SRS to simulate 100% chance to poison, which will cost you 40% dmg because your minions poison stack will be much lower.


You should easily reach 10 mill dmg or 12.5 mill even, if you were to add an Amanamu´s Gaze jewel.
The dmg is most definitely there, PoB just cant calculate it properly

nope, did all that.
of course i must overlooked something, but these 3 i did.
Also the frenzy, the AG Weapon allies damage boost, the poison stacks, the Herald stacks, the envy and the whatelsenot

But! I bought the damn weapon.
And it feels like night and day.
These little raging weasels run through the map, its sometimes even too fast to proc bone offering.
Boss goes down in half the time.


So now im reenergised and throw some currency on divergent and whatnot gems, the new belt and overall gear.


But one thing still riddles me... is it DoT we inflict?
Or just a debuff? Just asking because of the Watchers Eye mod not working.
Other use the one with faster ailment, but arent ailments deal Dot?

Yes its a dot - poison to be specific.
However, Watchers Eyes do not affect minions.

Amanumus Gaze is what you want instead. It clearly states, that it does indeed scale dots inflicted by minions.


Another pretty important thing: Get rid of the Herald of Agony as well as the medium minion cluster granting dmg while affected by a herald skill. Its not worth it.

Instead use the free mana add another aura like Tempest Shield or whatever else and get a medium minion cluster with the "Blessed Rebirth" notable.
Nothing else on the cluster matters, use it for whatever stats you want/need.
It will guarantee your SRS cant be killed no matter what for a few seconds and thats going to be crucial in some fights.
Absolute must have no brainer and beats the herald cluster any day of the week
