Dear exiles, this week's Path of Exile build is about SRS Summon Raging Spirits Build - Necromancer Witch.
Equipment
Look for these mods on rare items
- Minion Damage
- Elemental Resistances
- Life
- Dexterity
Mandatory Uniques
Fleshcrafter 
- This armour is mandatory because it causes your minions to ignore enemies' elemental resistances.
The Devouring Diadem 
- This helmet is mandatory because it grants Eldritch Battery saving 5 passive skill points.
- It also grants up to 176 energy shield and 25% increased mana reservation efficiency (needed to activate all auras)
- This helmet might be a little expensive during the first weeks of a new league. If that's your case, use The Brine Crown or any energy shield helmet with life and resistances. But remember that you'll need to pick Eldritch Battery on your passive tree.
- Without this helmet, you won't be able to activate your Anger aura. So keep this aura deactivated while you save the currency of Path of Exile to buy it.
