Fellow exiles, prepare to master one of Path of Exile’s most potent minion builds – the Poison SRS Guardian. This guide provides comprehensive insights into transforming your Summon Raging Spirits into deadly poison-inflicting specters.

Investment Required: Approximately 2000 Chaos Orbs for optimal performance.

Equipment

Mandatory Uniques

The Covenant

This exceptional body armor provides substantial added chaos damage to all your minions, perfectly aligning with the build’s core damage scaling mechanics.

United in Dream

Essential for granting minions 60% chance to poison on hit while also providing significant chaos damage enhancement to the Envy Aura.

Ancient Skull

This unique helmet delivers massive damage and attack speed multipliers to minions, dramatically increasing poison stack application frequency.

The trade-off involves minions taking chaos damage over time, though proper build execution ensures maximum chaos resistance mitigation.

Darkness Enthroned

Utilizing this specialized belt with two strategically chosen abyssal jewels enables your minions to reach the coveted 100% poison chance threshold.

Rare Shield

Brimstone Pith: Prioritize life, minion damage, elemental resistances, and the crucial +1 to level of all minion skill gems modifier.
