[3.24] SRS Bomber aka Popcorn SRS | League Start to Endgame | All Content

Late to the party but figured I would try this out. Build still going strong? What kind of content would this excel at for things like atlas passives?

This is mainly a League Starter build, there is likely to be a better build for each league mechanic.

Nevertheless the build is capable to take you through all content (maybe except the new Uber uber bosses)

The only mechanic where this build really sucks is for legion because of the targeting ai from the srs and the delayed damage.

Other than that pick what ever mechanic you like.

Doing your build rn, absolutely loving it. Best build ive ever done, so powerful and easy. One question tho, the self-cast ball lightning is confusing me. Skitterbots have an aura, does it really apply that to enemies since its linked? Where do the flammability and ele weakness curses come from? Thanks.

Ball Lightning doesn't need to be linked to Skitterbots.
Its just in the same socket group since it didn't fit anywhere else.

Ball lightning is used to apply the curses you get from the Rings. ("apply Flammabilty on Hit" and "apply Elemental Weakness on Hit")

if you don't have the Rings with curse on Hit you could run an Hextouch Setup with the Ball lightning:

Ball Lightning - Hextouch - Flammabilty - Elemental Weakness


Depending on your gem sockets and if you have the chest if additional Curse, you can drop "Elemental Weakness"

hello. thank you for this wonderfully detailed guide. helped me a lot.

I'm not able to understand these 2 lines:

"""""
Note: We use self-cast Ball Lightning to proc to apply The Elemental Weakness and Flammability Curses.

Note: Your reserved Mana should be fine, you could even add an Aspect of the Spider Aura.
"""""

if you can explain that be so helpful.

SInce the first part seems to be clear now, I'm only adressing the second line.


There are certain beats that let you craft your items using the Beastcraft in the menagerie
In this case you want to have Fenumus, First of the Night, that lets you craft the Aspect of the Spider Aura on one of your Rare items.

You either have to catch it yourself or you can buy one from trade: https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Sentinel/rlkm0lMCQ


Hope that helps.

hmm maybe this has been answered before but why unleash?

Why not?

We don't get the downside of the gem and it feels much better then spellecho.
You cast more srs in a shorter time and you aren't locked in place as long as with spellecho.
