ELD.gg Path of Exile 2: Witch Tactics: Dominate with Minions

 

The witch is a typical "summoning mage" who is good at controlling the battlefield through a large army of servants and POE2 Currency long-range spells, exchanging the minimum risk for the maximum benefit. The core of its gameplay lies in resource scheduling and battlefield segmentation, which is suitable for players who like strategic layout and avoid direct conflict. The following is a detailed strategy:

Passive combat core: summon management and positioning art

1. Summon type and division of labor

The witch's summons are divided into two categories, which need to be flexibly matched according to the battle situation:

Continuous servants (such as skeleton warriors and monsters):

Function: front row resistance, attracting hatred, and creating an output environment.

Skills: Prioritize summoning and deploying on the enemy's path, using its high blood volume to delay time and strive for opportunities for spell chanting.

Explosive servants (such as self-destructing spiders and elemental puppets):

Function: range damage, interrupt enemy skills, and clear miscellaneous soldiers.

Tips: Predict the enemy gathering point and release, or summon based on the weak attributes of the boss (such as using ice puppets to restrain fire enemies).

2. Servant formation control

Fan-shaped encirclement: Distribute the servants around yourself to prevent being wiped out by AOE skills.

Step-by-step advancement: First send a meat shield to attract firepower, then release high-damage servants to attack from behind.

Retreat command: Long press the summon key to order the servants to return to defense to avoid meaningless losses.

Common misunderstandings and advanced skills

Misunderstanding 1: Blindly stack the number of minions.

→ Correction: More than 6 minions will trigger "soul overload" (they will suffer additional damage), so the number needs to be controlled.

Misconception 2: Ignore the main body's position.

→ Correction: Although the witch relies on the minions, she still needs to maintain a "triangle position" (at an angle with the minions and the enemy).

Advanced skills:

Hate transfer: Using "Provocation Potion" on the minions can force the enemy to attack it for 3 seconds.

Environmental utilization: Lead the enemy to terrain such as "poison swamp" and "magma", and the minions will block the road to achieve continuous consumption.

Summary

The essence of the witch is a battlefield commander, who needs to coordinate the three elements of minions, spells, and cheap POE 2 Currency environment. Master the rhythm of "retreat to advance", and you can counter through strategy even if your equipment is inferior. Remember: your survival is the guarantee of victory, let the minions become your shield and sword!
