Witch in Path of Exile 2 is a very interesting class. She can be called strong in the early stage. With the protection of summons, she can face the monster group without pressure. However, Witch in the later stage seems to be a little powerless, because Witch’s summons cannot face the powerful boss, which causes Witch to face the boss alone. The survivability of a witch without summons is not high, so players who want to play a powerful witch need to have the correct Ascendancy, weapons and skills.
DPS of Witch is a little lower than other characters in Path of Exile 2, so Witch cannot rashly re-enter the boss field and instill your damage to the boss. This will not have much effect, and you will die. So the following recommends an extremely powerful Flame Witch build.
Witch is very dependent on minions, and it takes a lot of Spirit to summon more minions. Therefore, Witch’s equipment should be matched by Spirit. The more Spirit you have, the more summons you can drive.
The most direct way to increase your Spirit is to rely on equipment. Some scepters will directly provide you with Spirit, and you can also use POE 2 Chaos orbs to replace some of your equipment affix with affix that increase Spirit, which is even better.
Many scepters can directly provide you with a large amount of Spirit, and among them, Rattling Scepter is the most suitable scepter for witches. This scepter not only provides 100 Spirit for witches, but also allows you to summon some minions.
These minions are not too strong, but they can perfectly contain the enemy and put you in a safe position to attack without worry.
You can choose to place Shield or Focus in the off-hand position to improve your survivability, or if you are confident enough, you can also equip a wand in the main hand and a scepter in the off-hand, abandoning the ability to defend and turn all to offense.
Some flame wands can make the enemy suffer from burning, such as the Volatile Wand, which can turn the corpse into a fireball that chases the enemy. Leaving the corpse can also be used to summon minions, and Focus is very useful at this time. How you want to use the corpse depends on whether you need flame or minions.
For armor and accessories, the first choice is still items that can increase Spirit. The second is items that enhance summons. Spirit is the key to determining how many summons a witch can control, which is crucial.
There are not many armor and accessories that enhance Spirit. You can try to get Alpha’s Howl Armored Cap and Ventor’s Gamble Gold Ring, which are both equipment that can enhance your Spirit.
You can also choose to use currency to exchange more POE 2 items that enhance Spirit with other players.
In POE 2, players can learn skills at will. However, a powerful build requires a specific combination of some skills to exert greater power.
The core of Flame Witch’s skill set is flame and minions. You need to allocate your skill gems and support gems mainly to these skills.
Skeletal Arsonists allow you to summon skeleton hurlers that throw flaming projectiles. Yes, they are ranged characters. Rattling Scepters allow you to summon warriors. Put warriors and hurlers together and you have an army.
The key is that the flames thrown by Skeletal Arsonists can be combined with your other flame skills, which allows these poor skeletons to do more damage.
Flame Wall creates a Flame Wall in front of you, and enemies that enter it will be set on fire and receive continuous damage.
With the support gem equipped for this skill, you can create three Flame Wall, which can effectively prevent enemies from getting in front of you.
The support gem Fortress can double all your flame skills, and your flame wall will be greatly amplified.
The remaining Pain Offering and Unearth focus on increasing the damage of minions, while Detonate Dead and Flammability make your enemies suffer from flames.
Passive skills are still built along the lines of increasing flame damage and minion damage, but fortunately there aren’t many passive skills in POE 2 that increase fire skills, so you only need to focus on increasing minion damage.
When Witch chooses Ascendancy, we still have two options: Infernalist and Bloodmage. Among them, Infernalist is Ascendancy that controls hellfire and hell minions, which is very suitable for a flame witch.
The first skill you need to unlock is Hellhound, which will be another minion you summon. After you complete the remaining two trials, you will continue to gain Ascendancy, and you need to add Pyromantic Pact and Bringer of Flame.
Pyromantic Pact will allow Infernal Flame to replace your mana, and when Infernal Flame is sufficient, Bringer of Flame skill will allow all attacks of you and your minions to set the enemy on fire.
