👻3.20👻 Kay's Summoner💥SRS Bomber💀Poison SRS💀Melee SRS🕷️Spiders💀Skeleton Mages

So now that we know there are going to be no balance changes in 3.18, which build from this guide ended up being the strongest this league?

Hi Kay, thanks for the help.
I am officially dumb, i simply cannot get POB up and working correctly.
My info is public, my account is EDMOSES and my character is Ultimate_Daryl.

I think my helm is pretty good but i certainly didn't pay anything near a mirror for it.
I am using 2 carnage chieftan and 2 frost auto scouts spectres.

You have 420k per skele x 11 and 33k per phantasm x 11. About 5M totals and lots of projectiles. But phantasms probably won't have charges because they get replaced quickly. The phantasms base damage is 22k.

You could use Faster casting instead of phantasms though. 520k per skele and about 5M total. I think this is more reliable.

For dps. you need host chieftain for power charges and use increased crit damage. 930k per skele.

Not sure why you use FAS...

Best allrounder is probably skele mage. Tanky, good damage, easy to play, not too expensive. but kind of slow mapping (move speed + resummoning).

Edit: I shared an updated POB that's much stronger than the original build. I also theorycrafted a better no fleshcrafter build (cheap). I'll make a new guide that has the updates!

Other builds have different pro/cons. Like spectres are fastest for mapping, but bad bossing dps.

Thinking of trying to make Popcorn SRS work again in SSF this league - Had absolutely terrible luck with getting Tavukai last league (over 50!! araku tikis and didn't see Tavukai once) - I'm guessing the best way to farm for one would be to cheese heists at level 67? Could also farm random unique jewelry card but that's probably not nearly as efficient. Any thoughts?

You can increase drop chance if you only do level 54-59 heist (tavukai is 54!). Next droppable amulet is level 60.

And pick up every coral amulet for chancing!

Thanks Kay, using 2 Host/Carnage chieftain specters now.
Replaced Phantasms with faster casting.

Is that the updated pob on the summon skele mage post? I was trying to decide between animate weapon (either your physical version or the hear the whispers chaos version) and skele mages. Looks like for your builds the animate weapon had more damage, I imagine faster clear, and probably more tankiness?

Nevermind, found the updated one.

Instead of enfeeble for a defensive curse, what do you think of punishment? Enfeeble does 15% less damage for bosses (*.33 due to curse reduction) so 5%. (25% increased effect from ashes and 20 quality makes it 6.25%)
Punishment gives debilitate when they hit (including your minions) for 10% less damage done. So better (conditionally) then enfeeble, and gives damage as well.

Would you still recommend skele's over animate weapons?

Can carrion golems do wave 30 simulacrum?

I know alot of people leveled with absolution last league and apparently even tyty is recommending it for this league. Did anyone try it? Any pros or cons in comparisons to Kay's srs heavy build? I tired it last league and it was fine but I'm considering trying something different
