Witch minion Spell

[DeadRabbit]

In the Presentation Video of the Witch, they said that we can turn some mobs into our "special" minions.
But how? Is that in the game? i dont find the gem.

You can find summoning spells under the "occult" tab

You can get skeletal archers, arsonists, etc (the skeletal warriors is both a skill gem and an innate skill you can get on sceptres)

There is also a summon zombie skill, which requires corpses

Unearth provides temporary minions

Pretty sure Raise Spectre is not yet a skill in PoE2 as it is in PoE1

The old trailers for PoE2 as an expansion to 1 are outdated, they showcased Spears and Shapeshifting as PoE2 builds 4 years ago but they are not in the game "yet"

Well well...the good old PoE 1 as Witch....
I miss my Guardian and my Golems :D
Hopefully there will come more in the future.

As in the first gameplay Presentation of the Witch for PoE2, they told the gem "bind spectre" can enslave some special enemys for high Spirit costs.
But even if i look for "all gems" and search for "bind spectres" i dont find that one.
And i dont find infos why it isnt there or that it comes later. So im just curious.

Not all skills are in the game yet, it may come later and/or it was removed, we don't really know yet

As the knaven said, raise spectre is not in the game yet. Its a lot of work for 1 skill. Lower on priority list.

I dont mind really much. i was just theory crafting my minion Build and remembered that skill. But i would be happy to see that skill in the future returning.
thx for answers

They took it out a week before the game came out due to a bug which is pretty expected with its insane interactions they will bring it back and people will find a lot of bugs with it most likely. Being able to basically enslave any normal enemy in the game is a big ask and it had many issues in the first game.

Ahhh, thats good to know.
I thought something same. Using 100+ Enemys as your mininon and maybe with special Command Skills or powered through Support Gems was such an aewsome idea in my mind. But its a hell to balance or work without bugs for an early access release.

Bind Spectre isn't in the game yet?! Aw......

I had plans to mess around with that skill ever since they showed it off in the witch demo. Guess Imma wait to make a Witch then.

Same for me. But the variety of minions is allready soo good (Warriors, Arsonists, Sniper, Mage, Brutes, Clerics) Its so much fun to customize your army.

I was going to go gemling for spectre build, but they announced no spectre at start of ea so I went infernalist instead. I still have a gemling made and most of the way through cruel, just so I can jump into the build when it gets added. I'll be testing all 500 enemies, from trash to unique to super rare rare-only-variant of trash mobs (like quill rat thing gets a special rare-only version of the enemy, to allow it more skills so its not just some boring stat increase).
