Description
Summon Raging Spirit (SRS) là league starter minion rất ổn trong Path of Exile. Skill gọi các fire spirit bay thẳng vào enemy và đánh melee, nên clear sớm mượt mà dù gear còn nghèo.
Điểm mạnh của build là campaign và early maps: chỉ cần gem, vài node minion damage trên tree và gear resistance/life cơ bản là chạy được. Khi có thêm currency, build scale tiếp bằng gem level, support gem và minion damage.
Hợp với người cần một league starter ít rủi ro, lên maps nhanh, rồi chuyển dần sang farming endgame khi có vốn.
