PoE 3.23 Best Spectres For SRS Poison - Path of Exile SRS Spectre Tier List 3.23

Spectres are special monster monsters that you can resurrect and command as minions in Path of Exile. You use the Summon Spectre gem to resurrect a fallen monster as a spectre under your control. They will follow you and attack enemies. Popular spectres include Pale Seraphim for its damage debuff, and Carnage Chieftain for its buffs. Different spectres provide different skills. There are imperfect versions, regular versions, and perfect versions of the new spectres in Path of Exile 3.23. The truth is the imperfect and normal versions are completely worthless, just ignore them. Now, let's check our PoE 3.23 Afflition spectres tier list for SRS Poison!

S Tier - Pale Seraphim

Reduces enemy action speed and increases damage taken, very strong defense buff. The main reason it is used is for its Malediction ability. When near an enemy, it applies a debuff reducing their action speed by 20% and increasing damage taken by 20%. Pale Seraphim is the premier support spectre due to its overpowered yet reliable damage amp and defensive debuff abilities. It is invaluable for minion builds.

S Tier - Perfect Forest Warrior 

Gives allies an Onslaught buff and culling strike passive, great utility. Its main ability is granting allies the Onslaught buff. This provides 20% increased attack speed, cast speed and movement speed.  Has a cooldown of 12 seconds but the buff lasts 4 seconds, so near 100% uptime on Onslaught. It's the new top best PoE 3.23 DPS support spectre due to its powerful buffs and immortal qualities. A go-to guy for every minion build that has support spectres.

A Tier - Warlord

This spectre is interesting. He casts a vitality and Enduring Cry. He uses Immortal Call and shares his endurance charges so he has quite a lot of life. 20 all base resistance which is respectable that's fine. The numbers he brings at least when he's a high level are quite good. If we go to level 84, he does have a 316 life regen on his vitality which is amazing. If we have him we don't have to run vitality. Once every 8 seconds, he will do his Enduring Cry. His enduring cry regenerates 40% of his life and grants 3 endurance charges. He's going to share those endurance charges with not just you but also all your other minions making them all tank. This guy can't die and will give you maybe not permanent but quite a good uptime on endurance charges plus the vitality.

A Tier - Thunderbird

This one casts grace since now grace is not something we can afford in Poison SRS and not something we use in the Guardian SRS either. However, we can go with determination and grace by just bringing Primal Thunderbird. He has a good grace aura, 4,000 flat evasions, and 30% more evasion. The only downside about him is he has no resistance to fire and no resistance to cold base and only 188% life so he could be an issue. This one needs testing and it's also very cheap. If he lives, grace is amazing.

B Tier - Meatsack

Meatsack is an amazing name for a minion. It has very high life, it releases a caustic cloud on hit but the caustic cloud doesn't do anything. What we do care though is owner’s minions have a 40% increased maximum life so this guy's job is just to give increased maximum life to all of your minions. Making everything else tankier, making your animate guardian tankier, your other specters tankier. Increasing the life of your raging spirits if you happen to be like pop exploding them. He's got 800% on his life but otherwise he does practically nothing. He does do some chaos ground damage which is like an okay number but not enough to matter. This new PoE 3.23 Affliction spectre could be worth playing around with.

B Tier - Guardian Turtle

Guardian Turtle is only usable by a guardian, Poison SRS Necro is out of luck with this. He is huge and he is also incredibly slow. He does give the Determination Aura, a stronger version of what we give and he gives the owner 5% physical mitigation which is great. However he's unusable, you'll never be inside of his aura unless you're a Guardian. He's got a good amount of life, and good defense and he has a 4K armor and 30% more armor. So Guardians have an option for getting determination.

C Tier - Naval Officer

This spectre is a question mark because his life himself is pretty low. He's only got 60k to begin with and it's only a 146% increase. He also is missing two resistances. But he casts great precision. More importantly nearby allies have plus 10 fortifications that's the same buff the Kingmaker gives. So that is good for making us more tanky. 

The best  Path of Exile 3.23 Spectre for Poison SRS is going to be Pale Seraphim and the Forest Warrior. Or either the Warlord for the endurance charges or the Grace.
