How does this build mitigate damage. It seems like it is almost entirely built around offense rather than armor or evasion. MOM gives a nice cushion but with the majority of my mana being reserved, i don't feel like MOM really does much for me. Any suggestions?


Ah I believe I answered you on stream! Lmk if you need more info :)

Been playing this after GGG introduced the Raven MTX.

I found a few other Scourge SRS guides, but this guide is awesome, more detailed then the others, but I was already past the leveling stage when this was posted. I've stopped playing PoE a bit, but planning to level this and try the harder content.

Rocking a +1 Tabula atm, how important is Skin of the Loyal? Can I clear endgame stuff with that setup reliably? A +1 Belly seems pretty unrealistic for my budget. :(

One thing I'd like to add: for me, PoB shows that EDwA is actually better than a lv3 Empower, using a +1 chest. It becomes about equal with a lv4 Emp, and gets only better with the +2 Skin setup. So in a normal mapping setup I'm using EDwA and swapping Empower only for bosses. Am I missing something?

Great guide, cheers!

Edit: PoB shows Ruthless is better then Emp lv3 on ST


Yoooo! Glad you are picking it up to try again at harder content. The few other Scourge SRS guides (perhaps epic or spanishmonarch) were based off of mine xD (I discussed it with a few close friends in the 3.0 Beta). I wasn't planning to write a guide but after getting so many questions, I decided to do so, making it as accessible and detailed as I can ><! Still lots of work to be done *_*

A +1 Tabula serves almost the same function as a regular +1 Skin of the Loyal for you if you're solo. Skin of the Loyal only really shines with supports (check out the support section of the guide to see the kind of boost you get) ;D. Honestly, if you know your way around the mechanics etc, everything in the game can be cleared on a regular Tabula :X

Ah yes, the strength in Empower itself is not necessarily in the raw damage it gives but rather in both the damage AND raw base hp it gives the SRS, letting survive in tougher environments. Dead SRS = 0 dps. ;D (Although I'd have to add that a Lv4 empower in a +2 Skin of the loyal = spicy +5 Level. . . combined with Lv21 Srs, you get Lv28 SRS, which is the same as a +3 staff but with all the benefits of using Lyco and Scourge!) <- This was used in the Shaper Vid :X

Rock on forward~ :)


Oh yeah, the minion HP, forgot about that...
Thanks for pointing this out!
Why the MoM if all your mana is reserved? wont it do nothing but stop you from casting?

This was answered previously in the thread. I'll put it in the Frequently Asked Questions Section. The nodes behind Mind Over Matter, esp Inspiration, let us have even a lv21 Clarity for free and provides a nice buffer. All mana issues are solved by Lavianga's Spitit and/or vaal clarity, even in no regen maps. MoM gives even more flexibility when paired with supports or anyone that runs haste/hatred. Allow the auras to be turned off for more eHP. Even when solo it's still nice to have that extra source of mana regen in addition to the life.

Would this build work with lightning coil? Trying to decide on an end game chest piece. Just made it to lvl 80

If it works with a tabula, it can work with almost anything :D. That said, a lightning coil would be require a bit more investment to balance out the lightning resistance (unless you are not going for 109% all res and biscos amulet and reliant on belt).

Hi, really interesting build, I always wanted to do SRS but I hated staffs too, so I'm looking forward to trying this out. :)

Just one question, what chest would you recommend to start out with, a regular Belly or a +1 Tabula? Belly seems more defensive, but in this game a good offence is often the best defense, so sometimes it's better to go for the damage. What would you recommend?

I'd recommend a regular Belly for starting out. You will have plenty of damage when your gems are leveled and you have the auras/core items.

I'm trying out this build as I'm looking for a good boss killer. Seems good so far, but I noticed it might be difficult to sustain 20 SRS for prolonged boss fights. How can I deal with this issue? Survivability seems to sometimes be an issue to, the only healing options we have are flasks, right?
